PRICE FIVE Cc ’ - td 0 - One Day’s Session of the Chicago Tribunal Where Minors Who Have + —* Committed Slight Offenses of Childhood Are Placed Under Proper A movement to start a juvenile court in St. Louis is under way. qudge ‘Cutnill, presiding over the Chicago court of this nature, recently addresse4 2 Missouri body interested in the movement. He is an ac- knowledged authority. The following is a faithful report of a recent session of Judge Tuthill’s court: CHICAGO, Dec. 5. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. “Wot t’ell youse knows abcut {t? Youse a four-flusher. Youse ain’t @ot no ev'dence that I steals de sun and youse ain't tellin’ de troot Wen youse say I tretened yer life.” “No more of that kind of talk, now. That isn't the way a lawyer talks.

The Proceedings were in Judge Tuthill’s Juvenile Court, the tribunal that “Fem after the children of Chicago. The hearing of Arthur Jensen was ring the morning session when that claes of erring youngsters known as truants are tried. The truants are the children who remain away from school or who are incorrigible at school. They are divided into three@classes: Truants, incorrigible truants and incorrigibvles. When the child is found guilty he is sent to the Parental School at Bowman- ville, where he gets a taste of compulsory education. If he shows a disposition to reform he is returned to his former school. on parole; but the first time he is found truant again he is sent to the Parental School for further discipline. THE CURE FOR “BAD BOYS.”’ There are 22 truant officers in Chicago, under the supervision of W.. J. Bodine, superintendent of compulsory education. Thus Mr. Bo- dine has the unénviable position of looking afier all the bad boys in the 300 schools of Chicago. The effect of the Parental School has been to - Work a wonderful improvement in the attendance of the Chicago schools. _ The old systein of expulsion only servéd to throw the bad boys on the streets that they might grow worse. They rather liked to be expelled; but they do not like to have to be forced to study their lessons at the Parental School at Bowmanville. Arthur Jenken, who undertook to plead his own case in Judge Tut- hhill’s. court, was brought in by one of the probation officers on the charge of terrifying the pupils in his school with a revolver and trying to shoot Truant Officer James T. Austin. When Arthur had completed his state- ment, his teacher, the truant officer and others were permitted to tes- tify. It was shown by them that he had been reading dime novels and Arthur said that he has found $, and with $1.8 of the monéy bought the revolver from a pewnbroker. The charges against Jensen, most of which were proven, - Were that he had heen absent from school 2314 days and present 22; that he was unmily, hed an ill temper, was untruthful, vicious and incor rigible, but that he was tright in school and hig best ~-ork was in history. “You will go to the Parental School,” said Judge ‘Tuthill, “and steps must be taken to secure the arrest of the man who sold you the revolver. He otight to be sent to the penitentiary. Now, you have been a very bad bey; your teacher has talked with you and your mother says she can nothing with you. The Parental School is the best place for you. If you will go thete and act right and try to learn you can soon return 3 to your former schoo] but if you shall ever be brought up here again ¥ou will have to stay, at the Parental School.” There were 2 other cases of truanta during the morning session; ‘pome of whom were placed in charge of a probation officer and returned to their schools with the bélie® that their presence in the court had Some were sent to the Juvenile all I got to Detention Home, 65 West Adams street, some to the Industrial Training "% School at Glenwood or to the Catholic Training School at Feehanville. ‘expected. ”- sé ? “e under Ps took the court some time to recover its dignity after this and will ae - ‘cont pe “ns baksryd whey ~ Semnge = oak thee a criminal when he grows up?’ asks Judge Tut “They have been edu- ae pol pad tem Arndt mm ve pr eae — 23 Rllpsee Tuthill, after vainly endeavor ing to suppress a smile, admonished girl. ng a cated to the life of criminals and have no conception of ‘the duties of law- been in existence more than 5000 cases nein ‘ ae 4% eee Quinn to refrain from further of his witticisms. “Can't she go somewhere in town and let me pay for her board and ene oes. of the probation officer.

The next case called was that of Jimmy Quinn, 13 years old, who has run away from home and school and was found in company with a crowd of bad boys in one of the worst districts in Ohicag>. Jimmy was 13 years old. His parents are living and in good circumstances. He was gdeked to state his case.

So in the night I puts on me clothes. An’ gee I was sore, and slips out of the house, and I ain't been back since.”’ “Well, don’t you think you did wrong by leaving your home, and now don’t you think you had better go back and try and be a better boy? I think your father will not whip you so severely next time.” “Well, I don’t mind gcing back on ma’s account, and I’ll stay until te whips me that way again and then I'll leave for good.”’ Numerous witnesses testified that Alfred Quinn, Jimmy’s father, had an uncontrollable temper, that he treated his children kindly on general oocagions, but that he whipped Jimmy unmercifully when he was angry. Jimmy exhibited several marks of striped blue as evidence of the severity of his last punishment. DELIN QUENTS, DEFENDENTS AND THE DEFECTIVES. In the afternoon the delinquent. dependent and defective cases were tried. A delinquent is a boy under the age of 16, who, were he older, would be called a criminal. A dependent is a child who hasn't the proper parental care. He may be an orphan, a half orphan or have both parents living, the parents through poverty, neglect or other cause, being unable to give the child the proper treatment. Delinquents are sent to the John Worthy School and to the Illinois Industrial Training School. A defec- tive child is one whd is physically or mentally impaired. The afternoon’s session is, therefore, much the more interesting. It was a hetrogeneous crowd that stood around Judge Tuthill’s desk when the Sunday Post-Dispatch ¢orrespondent enteréd the courtroom—men, women and children, some with disheveled hair and ragged clothing. many from the slums; some whose faces were repulsive to see, and some of gentle birth and neat apparel. Christopher Desjarden was on trial for stealing a horse and cart. His companions called him ‘Chris.’ “IT never meant to swipe a rig in earnest,’’ said Chris, whose eyes looked earnestly from under his towseled hair and ragged hat. ‘Jimmy Carey, he reads in de pape about de giml on de boulevard wot swipes a horse and buggy just fur de sensation of bein’ chased by de cop. ‘Gee, but she wus game,’ says Jimmy to me, ‘an’ look wot a big blow-out she gits in de pape. An’ wot you tink,’ says Jimmy, readin’ more in de pape, ‘she wuz released cause she proved to de court she didn’t intend to swipe de rig in earnest. Wot if we wuz to do de same way an’ git our names n de pape wit big head lines,’ says Pimmy. ““Git ourselves in de lock-up wid a big fine,’ says I. “ Nuthin’ uv de kine, not if we's smoot énough to play dat just’-fur- de-sensashun gag,’ says Jimmy. “An’ den Jimmy says to me, he says, rig across de street.’ “‘T’m game,’ says I. ‘Come on, den,’ says Jimmy, and soon we wuz ridin’ down de street at a swift trot, but der wuzn't any sensashun uf bein’ chased by de cop. So we kept on ridin’ and went way out to Gar- field boulevards, but when we went to ride on de boulevards de cop we run into made us turn out and says we couldn’t drive on dat street wid such a rig. So we kept on drivin’, an’ Jimmy says, ‘Legs sell de hoss an’ rig an’ blow in de = coin. “Well, I didn’t Iike ter do that, but I fell in. So Jimmy goes to a man on der street an’ asks him ter buy de rig, an’ instead of de man ' in’ he goes on a little furder an’ teils de cop on de corner. De cop arrests me and Jimmy, who sees him comin,’ runs and gits away.’’ “You look like an honest and bright boy,’’ said Judge Tuthill, your mother says you are so much Kelp to her in making a living I am going to release you this time, but when you come before me again, re- member, you go to the John Worthy School." Minnie Chetlain, 14 years old, was. charge! with freqventing an opium joint berieath a Chinese laundry on South Clark street, and luring other girls to the same place. She was sent to the Home for Girls at Bvanston. INSTRUCTION IN ELEMENTS OF LAW. John Lavinski had two stolen gold rings in his posseagion. they were givéh to him by Charley. Bowen. “Did.you Khow he had stolen them?” asked the judge. ‘Yes,’ said Lavinski.’ \ “Did you see him steal them?’’ ‘“*Yes.’’ “Well, don’t you know it is just as much harm for you to take any- thing that’s stolen as it is to steal it yourself? If you shoul take a watch from a man’s pocket and give the watch to another boy, that boy, if he saw you take the watch, is just as guilty as you are. I will give you another chance, as you haven’t been here before.”’ He wae placed in charge of a probation officer. Paul Glenheddy, aged 18, and Mary Durr, aged 15, had been living to- gether for three weeks. Both the children had parents, but none of them was in court. | “Mary, what have you got to say for yourself?’ asked Judge Tuthill. “Well, I ran away from home and mamma wouldn't let me come back. I had to go live with Paul, as I couldn’t do anything else.”’ Mary was a comely-looking German girl an? said she belonged to the Latheran Church. Glenheddy was called to the stand. He worked for the Illinois Steel Co. and looked to be a straightforward, honest youth. The couple had known each other for a year. “I wanted to marry her,” said Paul, but found out that*I wasn’t old enough. Her parents drove her away from home. I found her in neéé and gave her a home. I love her and would like to marry her if I could.” ‘I'll back you out gittin’ inter de He ‘gaia “and - "CHILDREN SAVED FROM LIVES OF CRIME BY THE JUVENILE COUR thet no chfid is born a criminal; that the criminal tendencies of the young person are due entirely to its environments and early training. The court has dealt with hundreds. of children brought from the vice- begrimmed districts of Halstead street, South Clark street, Custom House place, Twenty-second etreet, Littie Hell and the Ghetto, who have never known anything but vice from the time of their entry into the world. It has dealt with the children of pickpockets, highwaymen, porch climbers, bunco steerers, shoplifters, murderers and criminals of all descriptions. In fact, it is the children of this vicious class that comprise the great part of the charges of this remarkable tribunal. “How can you expect such a child to me anything else but a FF . f si “ , hou ot a = FLAING LM cS ae | Sa >. smal Ae mae . - ~ e ho ¥ - Mets, Fe ie - | . . ‘ Mets Peel * > 3 fore ‘} te ; : a j rx > ane al - : ‘. 2S ty a = rus : 45 13 oe ' * v be \ i Sa i te « : | ox ' . ay a f 0 \ ‘a : ; * Be we ‘ - 7 , a ‘ rue HORMEL EA? a ee ie , pe ACA uN nn | C4, : with begging on the streets, stealing, playing craps, robbing houses and | because of the tender age of the boy.

Upon the books of one company more than 1,000,000 “‘cradle’’ policies were carried. Con- ditions of like character are alleged to exist in St. Louls and !n all other cities in the country. No cases of suspected child murder have been reported from St. Louis, however. The death of two children in Philadel- circumstances has led to disclosures of a surprising charac- ter and paved the way for a_ speedy change in the laws of Pennsylvania.

WIFE THREATENED SUICIDE HAD BOUGHT POISON AT TWO DRUG STORES. Dying Wife Declared She Had Not Tried to Commit Suicide and Charged Her Death to Her Husband or His In- amorata. CENTRAL SPRINGS, Miss., Dec. 6.— Crystal Springs is in the midst of a poison- ing case, and the evidence as given by the coroner’s jury, implicates Y. B. Boyd in the murder of his wife. For some time past Mr. Boyd had, it is alieged, been showing considerable atten- tion to Mrs. Susie Artman, the young wife of a German baker. This, it is said, be- came quite obnoxious to Boyd's wife, who repeatedly chided with Boyd to discontinue his attentions to Artman’s wife, even g0O- ing so far on several occasions as to threat- en suicide if he did not. At the inquest Dr. Dampeer testified that he was called to treat Mrs. Boyd, who was, as he then thought, attac by cramp colic. In two days she showed signs of poisoning. On one occasion he asked her if she had taken any poison, and she said she had not. She stated that the medicine she had taken had changed color, and é4- stead of beifig the color of pepsin that it had turned biue in color and that it had a brackish taste. Dr. Dampeer said that deceased said she was sure that poison had been put in her medicine, She told him that she had told Boyd on several occasions that she had intended suicide, but that it was not intended. On Saturday evening Dr. Dampeer asked all out of the patient's room exceft Nora McDonald, a cousin of Mrs. Boyd. Dr. — eer told Mrs. Boyd that she was going to-die and that her husband was un- der suspicion of administering igon to her, and if he was not guilty for her in her last moments to so state it and @xonerate declaration was: rd is my ‘witness; I have taken nothing except what you have given me, and I believe that he (Y.

A dinner was pro- vided by one of its members for the con- sumptive who is supported by his 15-year. old sister, which, to use the child's ex- ression, was “the very best dinner they ave ever had.”’ This girl, not yet 16 years old, is the sole support of this invalid and she makes their living canvassing. Recently a better position was offered her, but she refused because her word was given. A rare example of honer seldom seen now a days, even in those much older than this brave little 15-year-old bread-winner.

Miss Olive Seaton, Penn, Hopkins County, Tex., writes that she is a helpless cripple and has lost her only protector, her fath- er, quite recently by consumption. Any sunshine sent her way would be most thankfully received. Since the death of her father the clouds have been very dark and she craves a glimpse of their hidden s'ivery lining. Send her a bit of good cheer for she is sad and lonely. Mrs. Nancy Mappin, 513 Decatur street, St. Charles, Mo., writes that she is a ter- rible sufferer from dropsy and can not stand on her feet.

LIVINGSTONE, Polk County, Tex., Dec. ; 6.—The little band of religious communists who came from Bowling Green, O., and es- tablished a so-called heaven in the piney wilderness five miles from here, have just celebrated the seventh anniversary of their arrival. This religious colony call themselves the ‘New House of Israel."’ They assert that they were directed by the Lord to estab- |’ lish this terrestrial heaven for the ingath- ering of the 12 tribes of Israel or the 144,- 000 spoken of in the Bible. The founder of this pecviiar sect was George R. Sutton, who has the title of judge in Isracl.

William J. Stone's connection with the Baking Powder Trust and identified him as the legislative and legal agent of that rich and powerful com- bination. Briefly, it was recited that Stone used jhis personal and political influence to se- cure the defeat of the bill to repeal the law prohibiting the use of alum in baking powder which was passed surreptitiously (so it is charged by many who voted for it fe oe y ex-Gov. Stephens who signed the Il) at the tegislative session of 1899. “The fact was recounted that at the 1901 Session of the General Assembly Stone ap- peared in the lobby at Jefferson City and made a speech before the. criminal juris- prudence committee in which he urged the | members thereof on purely ‘‘scientific and hygienic grounds’ to make a.report Unfa- Yorable to the anti-trust bill. In accordance with Btone’s suggestions, the unfavorable report was returned, but not openly, and there was no knowledge on the part of any of those interested in the bill or any legislator, save Senator James Orchard of Howell! County, that this action had been taken until two days after the legislature adjourned, when copies of the committee report were spread broad- cast. : In further substantiation of the informa- tion given, the Post-Dispatch printed the sworn testifidny of W.: N. Miller to the effect that the Public Health, Society was located in Stone’sOffice in the ‘union Trust building and that the agents of the soci- ety were there paid with money taken from ex-Gov. Stone’s safe or ult. * Patterson Batn, president of, the. Chap- man-Bain Manufacturing Co., declared that in an interview with him ex-Gov. Stoné threatened to drive every independent, bak- Ing powder manufacturer out of Missouri if Mr. Bain and his friends attempted to oppose him for thé senatorship. On Dec. 3 Gov. Stone, in a statement characterized by vigorous language, denied the statement of Mr. Bain that he had personally lobbied in Jefferson City for the bill. bet What he sald follows: in today’s Post-Digpatch an article zo-c!e posing powder bill, in n by the name of Bain is P ng that I wae at Jefférson ty ‘the last Legisiature, bad a room at the i from which I worked against the repealing blil of,which he was endeav- oring to. secure passage, and that I could be seen going in and out as late as 8 o'clock in the morning. I desire to say, uneyguivocally and with- out reservation, that that statement is ab- solutely false. I am not now discussing the question as to whether I would be open to criticism for opposing the passage of the bill Mr. Bain was advocating in the inter- est of those he says he represented. I am simply saying that the statement he is re- ported as making is absolutely untrue. Although I would have had an absolute right to oppose in a proper way the bill ina question, and this I could well have done in the public interest; yet, as a matter of fact, I say in positive and unequivocal. terms, that 1 never went to Jefferson.

In confirmation of what was published on the gubject, and in further proof that «x-Gov, Btone constituted what is known as the Public Health Society of Missouri, which represented the baking powder trust, the Post-Dispatch herewith presents com- piete and detailed evidence. Gov. Stone’ says: ‘In my office here I did dictate an argu- ment nst the passage of the repeal- ing bil, which ent was printed and distributed through the mall to members of the Legislature for their consideration. The argument to which Gov. Stone refers is contained in a pamphlet sent out under the Governor's personal direction, and the introductory ig'as follows: ALUM A POISON, Remarks of Hon. William J. Stone (ex- -- governor 2 of Missouri),.before a com- mittee of the Forty-first General Assembly, lebruary, 1901. > Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Com- I appear befere you at .

One of the principal objects of the associxtion is to do whatever it'can to the evil of selling adulterated food ts to the peo- ple of this state. Then follows a technical and exhaustive report on alum as a ponenes ingredient. No other food product is mentioned. It will be noticed the ex-gove,nor distinat- ly begins his argument with the statement, ‘“*‘l appear befure you’’—showing that.e.ther he went to Jefferson City to piead with tlie legis.iators or’ the words above quoted. con- veyed a wrong impression of the rea! fact. Mr. Bain states that during the 1901 ses- sion ‘the ex-governor could be seen comin out of hig apartment at the Madison Ho.e as late ag 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning. Others ‘who were interested in the pending bill make the same assertion. Amp ne those who saw Stone at Jeffer- son City ,conversing with the legislators are: Gus Reinhardt, J. T, Craighead, R. P Benedict and D. K. business men of St. Louis. That Mr. Stone was the legislative agent for the Baking Powder Trust was dec'ared in public speeches delivered before tne Senate committee in public session by Representazive Matt Hall of Saline County an wg | James H. Whitecotton of the House of Representatives. * Both Hall and Whitecotton attacked Stons fiercely. The \joccasion was the public hearing on the Hall medical bill, which the ex-governor also opposed in behalf ostensibly of: the Christian Scientists. Among other things Mr. Hall sald: “Orly a week ago we find Gov. Stone sing as a chemist a for the efeat of the anti-trust ing powder bill. “Tonight he is here as a medical expert. I have long been Mr. Stone's friend. I have been with him in every political battle and have championed him at every opportunity. I am sorry that now we must part company, He has shown to our sorrow how a great man can descend to the smallness of lobby eg My God! how the mighty have en. Speaker Whitecotton . also denounced Stone as a lobbyist and the ex-governor in response simply remarked that he etted the “harsh opinion’’ which his friends — and Whitecotton) had formed of him. J. Kelly, who po as the president ealth Society” with @ of the National Missouri branch located in the Missouri Trust building, lobbied in behalf of the baking powder trust, of which he is‘an em- ploye, at Jefferson City. At the state capitol he wag introduced to Patterson Bain as ‘‘Mr. Brown.” He kept hie identity secret almost to the closing day of the 1901 session. There is now in circulation a document, ) either house of the legislature on thé sub- giving the report ,of the ‘criminal juris- rudence committee on the baking powder ii, to which is appended the “argument’’ of Gov.,Stone. Orchard,. the chairman of that comimittet, as is well known, was one of the bright lights of the lobby at the 1895 and 1901 legislative sessions, and was defeated for re-election in November. The cover of this report follows: ALUM BAKING POWDERS PROHIBITED IN MISSOURI THE LEGISLATURE DECLINES TO REPEAL THE RESTRICTIVE LAW REPORT ‘OF THE SENATE.

This was given on the evening of Nov. 27 to an overflowing house and for the first time in the history of the St. Louis music, a purely musical organi- zation of semi-public character was in & position to say that it had secured six audiences for its subscription concerts in advance of the initial offering. The society was enabled to do this by putting the as- pect of exclusiveness on the subscription plan, namely, by selling no tickets to those who wanted to attend ny! one concert. All the subscribers, over 900 in all, obligated themselves to pay for the entire series in advance and in all cases this obligat’on has been respecte@ The plan of the society in former years was the opposite to the one now in successful vogue. There. were no gubacription tickets ‘and the sup- ters of the society were largely outside he domain of its regular membership. Stone paid Miller’s salary, and that the vault wherein the baking powder can was deposited was his personal property. Yy. What compensation did you receive? A. About $8 or $10/n week. Q. Who paid it to you? .A. Well, I got it from the society, out of the vault containing the funds when there were any there. . Did you always get your salary? A. No, I not. Q. How did you manage to live then? A. Well, I ueed to borrow money from Kim Stone. . After you took the can and deposited it in e, when did you go back to get it? A. The next. day, I believe. Q. Who let you have it? A. I believe Mr. Stone opened the safe and I took it out. In the case of the state vs. Bohn, Chem- ist Chauvenet testified that ex-Gov. Stone re him during the baking powder ests. Mr. Chauvenet after testifying as to the chemical points of alum ‘was asked if the precipitation in baking powder might not result from some other cause. Mr. Chauvenet replied: ' “IT want it clearly understood before we pass away from this part‘of the subject that there should be no challenge upon the chemist or chemical] profesion; that when approached by Gov. Stone I made a con- tract for qualitative determinations, and that” these ualitative determinations should be only this: Does aluminum in any of its forms occur in these powders? Be- yond that I made no contract to go. Q. And when you found there wag alumina there that was all? A. Theat was all. Q. Your directiom: coming from Gov. Stone, who is the father, I believe, of Kim Stone referred to here. of the Pure Pood Association or Public Health Society, went to that extent and no fur- ther? A. That was aN. . You weren't asked by Gov. Stone to deter- mine whether or not there was alum there? A. That was the form of his question, whether or not th were aluminum there. He atked me, "Do these wders contain alum ?’’ Gov. Stone, through his son, Kimbrough, continued the prosecutions of independent manufacturers in the state, and as od @pe aid of the prosecuting officers of the vari- ous counties. A STONE LETTER. Following is a copy of the letter which he sent to the prosecuting attorney, of Buchanan County, seon after the trust law was passed in 1899: Dear Sir: This will introduce to you my son, Mr. Kimbrough Stone. He is as- ed with me here. We have in this city a health society, the purpose of which is to enforce, or to aid in enforcing, the pure food laws of the state. We are at- s for thie association. These laws are of g eat importance to the public welfare, as they are made to protect the public health. Many candies, vinegars, ene powders and numerous oiher compounded foorls con- destructive to of sc and ledge. Unfortunately, aws on this subject which are inadequate In themselves, are not enforced. ‘They are practically a dead letter, gnd the result is that these impure = ds ure multiplied instead of dimin- 3 The purposes of the society which we_rep- ‘afternoon euchre Thursday, 11, \ The moment the officers of the society, early this year, anounced an im change in the manner of conduc concerts of ~« 4 discerned proval of their_ course the signi large number of subscriptions for the “one series of six concerts, payment for ch was strictly in advance of the first con- cer ‘ As a result the society has some 000 | in its treasury, which fs about half as | as is needed to carry out the entire - of concerts. It has a ‘guarantee of | $20,000, intact, and the assurance that the four popular concerts, the first to be given next Thursday night, will practically pay for themselves. These ‘‘populars’’ are, as their name in- dicates: Popular in rice—the admission being 25 to 50 cents for the best reserved seats; popular as to the music and | in the fact that the great new chorus of the society will sing at nearly these popular concerts while the new orchestra, Mr. Alfred Ernst, is to co-operate eS them. Looal soloists of undoubted t and popularity are to appear at all ot these popular concerts.

My son will visit different cities in the state, as the attorney for this society, to consult with attorneys, and we will co-operate with such of them as will undertake to enforce these important crim- inal statutes. He visite you upon this mis- sion, and I hope after you have talked with him, you will see your way clear to take the matter up if a case is made. We bvelieve if a number of prosecutions for violating these laws should be instituted in different parts of the state and the violators con- victed, it would put a stop to the abuses we seek to combat. The ex-Governor’s famous “argument” contained this paragraph: It is said that these tablisbments on both sides themwelves tinto truste, or intb coinbinations, and are at war! er, one trying repeal to other trying to ot be trim. fowler es- ve formed me kind of th each ture? No matter much we may yesed to trusta. It should be red that the questi you are dealing with here ‘sg not the trust question, but a question af- fecting the public bealth. From these remarks the inference is readily drawn that Stone professed not to represent any interest but his philanthrep- ic health society. . The testimony in the different cases pros- ecuted under ex-Gov. Stone's * supervision. failed to reveal the identity of the’ Health Society, save that its membership was Stone, and that Stone mads up its official rostrum. No one but Miller could vouch for its ex- istence, and the postal authorities say if they got a letter addressed to the M Health Society they would send it to the dead letter office. There is no sign on the door of éex-Gov. Stone’s law office showl that there is -~ hadquarters of the ic Health So- clety. That it was a mere myth, a blind, to “hide the shells” of the trust is established beyond all doubt. As a result of ex-Gov. Stone's ys nahin for the trust, two of the largest independ- ent manufacturers havé moved out of the state. They are the J. G. Grant Chemicai Co. and the Layton Pure Food Co. These two factories are now located on Illinois soil. They have a daily output of 2,000,000 pounds, employ persons, and their salary roll amounts to $150,000 per annum. . Euchre by St. Mark’s Ladies.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—Former Speaker | Thomas B. Reed died at 12:10 o'clock this | morning of Bright's disease after six davs | illness. The hope of his recovery entertained by | his physicians began to wene at $:20 o’clock | last night, when the last bulletin on his | condition was issued. | } | It anncunced that a decided turn for the | worse had begun, and thet the frncticns of the kidneys had almost been suppressed. | From that time he sank rapidly and at 11 o'clock the doctors announced ihat his death during the night was inevitable. Mr. Reed's family was with him. Oxygen and saline solution were used re- peatedly in an effort to revive him from sinking spells, but they were ineffectual. The end was without pain. Mr. Reed reached Wagrhington Sunday, | having come to attend to some maties | In the United States Supreme Court. Hl . was at-the capitol Monday visiting with friends and former associates in Congress and witnessed the convening of the second session of the Fifty-eighth Congress. STRICKEN SUDDENLY. Apparently he was enjoying good health, but later in the day he ealled on Dr. ir. A. Gardner and complained of gastric distress. The following day his physicians com- pelled him to remain in bed while a diag- nosis was made of his condition. Mr. Reed was strongly averse to staying in bed. but a Yigeévin temperature made it imperative Symptoms of appendicitis appeared, though his condition was not considered alarming. A trained nurse remained with him throughout Tuesday night and the pa- tient showed signg of improvement. Mrs. Reed and daughter, Miss Kittie, arrived Wednesday and have remained with Mr. Reed at the Arlington Hotel since. On Thursday the physicians announced that the appendical symptoms were ahbat- ing, but that kidney trouble had develdped, giving a’ more serious aspect to the case, DIED BEFORE TOAST ENDED. While the former speaker was dying the Gridiron Club was holding its first banquet of the Congress session in the hotel below. Shortly before midnight it was announced that Mr. Reed was dying. President Wynne made a feeling reference to Mr. Reed, who had been the guest at many Gridiron ban- quets; and Maj. John M. Carson, tue cor- respondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, who had known Mr. Reed for 30 years, spoke a few words in praise of him. The clu and its guests drank a final toast to Mr. Reed. Before the glasses were emptied he was dead. The attending physicians say that the cause of death was acute uremia. Mr. Reed developed symptoms of catarrhal appendi- citis last Tuesday. These symptoms ag- gravated the kidney trouble from which he had been suffering for a long time. On Wednesday dangerous symptoms of uremic poisoning set in, and since that time it has been recognized by the doctors that his chances for life have been slight. NOTED SPECIALIST CALLED. Mr. Reed became unconscious’ shortly after & o’clock Saturday. He remained in this condition until the time of his death. When the attending physicians found the uremic condition complete, the kidneys refusing to perform their function, a tele- gram was sent to Dr. W. A. Goodnow, a famous specialist on diseases of the kid- neys, of Philadelphia. He arrived here shortly after 10 o'clock and went at once to the sick room. All the attending physicians were present when Mr. Reed died. In the afternoon it was ev'dent to the physicians that there was little or no hope for his recovery. His kidneys had refused to work early in the morning, and In the afterncon they absolutely would not per- | form their functions. His veins were opened ear'y in the day and saline sclution was in- jected, In the hope that the kidneys’ would resume their werk. AGAIN SPEAKER IN DELIRIUM. He was conscious while this injection was made and continued in a sem!-conscious state all day. At 9 o'clock at night another saline injection was administered, Mr. Reed did not rally from either operation, His mind was active, but it did not work clearly. He wandered to the scenes of his boyhood and later went to the notable fights he had in the House. He spoke portions of his great speeches, and for a moment or two imagined that he was in the speaker's chair and was pre- siding over the House. At 5 o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Reed became incoherent, . | dee Ag © dees Wwe oe Me Pay by CF He 2 pene ; ast od f gh aq e ’ og i - *« ; * * 1 iif! fit vs ty iss tT tt ty ee ‘ "oS ae - *.

He He was elected from the first Mafne dts- trict to the Forty-fifth Congress in 1879, and wags re-elected to every Congress after that until his retirement in 1900. In 1889 he was elected speaker of the House of Representatives. The next Congress was Democratic. But in 18% he was again chosen speaker, and again in 1897. Mr. Reed saw the power of speaker greatly inereased in practical use. He ex- cited sharp objection by his ruling as present all members whom he might see. whether they answered to their names or not, so securing a working quorum despite the resistance of the minority. His ruling was condemned Sy his opponents, but was subsequently adopted as a rule of the House. He carried the power of the speaker to control the course of legislation to the highest point, and by his rulings prevented obstruction,. and hindered the passage of soms measures which he disap- proved. In 1896 he was a favorite candidate of Hard-Money Republicans for the presiden- tial nomination, and was widely acknowl- edged as the able leader of his party. In April, 1899, it was announced that he in- tended to tetire from political Ife and enter upon the practice of law in New York City, having made arrangements to enter the law firm of Simpson, Thatcher & Barnum, No. 10 Wall street.

A. I. Stix & Co. justly deserve the national reputation they gained as makers and designers of the most exclusive and strictly high art tailor-made garments. After five years of the most successful business career they decided, for reacons best known to themselves, to discontinue it. In securing this stock at 50c on thé dollar, we scored a notable trade triumph, the fruits of which will prove beneficial to our patrons. The immense crowds such a sale must of necessity attract have been preperer for, and we will have a greatly increased selling force. In connection with this great sale we offer our stock of imported novelty garments, con- sisting of swell costumes in black and colors —su table for street, evening reception wear— novelty coats for street, carriage and opera wear—high art tailored syits—imported silk and cloth wraps, at a discount of 25 to 50 per cent.

CANNON ALSO BURLESQUED Cabinet Members and Senators Among Guests of Washington Oorrespond- ent’s Famous Club. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The December dinner of the Gridiron Club at the Arlington .|| Hotel tonight was a success as usual. The Washington correspondents who compose the organization made use of recent events and prosepective happenings for their bur- lesques. There were many prominent guests and from the time President Robert J. Winne delivered his address of welcome until the midnight hour there was nothing but mirth, music, quips, hits and roasts, all of the kind which make Gridiron dinners so enjoyable. Good speeches were made by public men, who entered into the spirit of the occasion. The meu souvenir was a book of rules of the House, with many cartoons showing the stringent manner in which Mr. Cannon will rule the House. It was accompanied by a gavel, making every man his own speaker. A “seeing Washington car’ was intro- duced, and a member of the club gave a lecture upon the principal points of the city. This brought tn a a of pictures, the White House, capitol, treasury and other public buildings and “sights’’ being shown. The lecture wasg.replete with hits upon guésis and. ptrblic affairs. An old- fashioned meeting at the “corner grocery’ was held, and ete en and future events discussed. Another feature was the nomin- ation of all the possibilities ror speaker of the House, eir characteristics being pointed ovt. ‘A “stand patter’ patty was organized and after a number of politicians had been nominated and rejected, W. A. Tur general passenger agent of the Southern railway, was unanimously elected president. One of the best hits of the evening came late, when two bears ap- peared. One was a real bear and thé other was impersonated by a member of the club. He announced that they were from Mis- sissippi and were looking for the Presi- dent. ‘They had tried to find him in the canebfakes a few weeks ago, but failing, had come to Washington tn search of him. After partaking of refreshments they de- parted, as was said, for the White House. Among the guests present were the fol- lowing: Secretary Moody, Postmaster-Gen- eral Payne, Secretary ilgson, Senators Allison, Alger, Hanna, Keane, Lodge and er Henderson, Representatives Babcock, Cannon, Dalzell, Dwight, Gard- ner, Hitt, Hopkins, Lawrence, Laudens- lager, Mercer, Overstreet, Trimble; Gens.

Ryan : a THE PROMINENT AND POPULAR ST, LOUIS TURFMAN, BUYS RAGE TRACKS, John J. Ryan, the eminent St. Louis turfman and bookmaker, again demonstrates his great abil- ity and resources, He has recently purchased the beautiful Newport race track, justiy considered one of the finest mile tracks in the country. It was built at a cost of $225,000, and will undoubt- edly be the strongest factor in winter races throughout the entire country. It will make the New Orleans track, heretofore the center of win- ter racing, play second fiddle. This feature, along with the breeding farm, makes the John J. Ryan & Co. the strongest investment company in exist- ence. This company has never failed in any in- stance to pay 5 per cent weekly to investors, and will continue to pay 5 per cent weekly to all desiring to invest. The purchasing of the New- port track is a great addition of security to this already enormously strong company. This all goes to the investor. The Newport track will be open for business on Saturday, Dec. 20th, 1902. It will be an all-year track, for racing will be continued each day. The unusual size of the purses will at- tract the fastest and best horses now on the track. much of the property outright as it could afford.

PRINCE HE FASCINATED THE PEOPLE OF HEMPSTEAD, TEX. TOLD PRETTY FAIRY TALES Next Morning, When Disclosed as a Street Faker, the Irate Populace Ran Him Out of Town. HOUSTON, Tex., Dec. 6—Hampered by a caudal appendage of two cannon crack- ers and a tin can, Prince Nanzeta 4i Vei- asco Montezuma, Prince of Inca, made rather an undignified exit from the town of Hempstead, Arriving there on a recent might the prince registered at the principal hotel, ana by his appearance attracted a lot of at- tention. Hiis foreign air, combined with his fiowing nair and Spanish pronunciation, produced a powerful effect on the minds of the Hempstead peopie—they thougnt he was a real bona fide prince. Surrounded by listeners he rehearsed his little story of oppréssion and netng criven f om his native os Phill by the jealousy of e Mexican republ! They sympathized with him and bought him severa)] kinds of refreshments, both solid and liquor. Under their stimujating infiuences he boldly proclaimed that he could have been made king of Spain had he so desired. He stated omphatically that he was going: to do all kinds of things to the Mexicans. The populace swallowed his words, and promptly asked for more, By bed time he had excited their minds to such an ex- tent that they looked upon themselves as dukes and counts in the newly resurrected kingdom which was to be presided over by the astute Prinee of Incas. Bright and early next morning Prince Montezuma was discovered mounted on an empty box in the square, In his hand was a bottle which he was loudly proclaiming as the only genuine cure for ali the ills to which humanity is heir. Purchasers Got Money Back. In glowing words he told how such a one had been cured even when the undertaker had been. telephoned for. He expatiated so largely upon its meri.s that a few were induced to buy. Upon tendering their $1 in yment they were agreeably surp: ised to Find a cris dollar pill protruding from the package. ey bought more. In every in- stance their dollar was returned.

Presently an electrify the, rehabilitating and rejuven- ating medicine was produced that made: the other reparations look ike 30 cents. It a 6 6 bottle. Just as eagerly as the 5 was bought, so was this. When he had sold the last bottle and pocketed in the neighborhood of $100 he made a polite and sweeping bow and stepped off the box. There was nothing doing anent the return of the coin. About this time the coterie referred to in the be —~ of this story showed up and learn what the recalcitrant prince had done. As one man they made for him. Two elegant long cannon crackers were produc- ed, likewise a large empty tomato can with a nail tied inside. With many yoils of un- holy joy. they affixed the articles where ey would be to best advantage. An old hound was produced. The old hound had never bitten anything in hig life except what he could steal. but as a trailer he was a remarkable and dis- tinct success. Down the road went Prince Montezuma, followed by the hound and half the popu- lace of the town.

Bpecial Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1002, by the Press Publighing Co.) LONDON, Dec. 6.—Prince Francis of Teco, a brother of the Princess of Wales, who has no yigsible means of support, has been offered a partnership in the firm of Panmure, Gordon & Co., stock brokers, with a salary of $15,000 a year. He can only be useful as a bait for snobs, for he has no business capacity or experience. King Edward is opposed to having a brother of the future queen. interested in the stock exchange and has so far with- held his consent: Prince Francis would be of little use to the firm if he were on the King’s “‘black books.” It is a difficult position for Prince Francis, who recently resigned his commission in the army.

NEW YORK, Dee. 6.—<According to the, geta di Velasco Montezuma, | OA * vo ~ statements of horsemen recehtly returned from France, that country is a bad place for Americans who wish to follow the turf and hope to achieve success, Four men prominent on the English and French turf last season, arrived tn New York last week from Europe after a stormy voyage. They were William Duke, trainer for Sir John Thursby; Sidney Burns, charged by the Paris police with complicity in the recent racing scandals; J. H. (Skeets) Martin, who will ride in England for W. C. Whitney next season, and “Jack” McDonald, manager_of W. K. Vanderbilt's thoroughbreds. Sidney Burns, who claims he is a handl- capper and bets on the reces on “form” and the ‘‘figures” of his handicapping sys- tem, said the root ef the whole racing scandal in France was due to jealousy, He “The French and Fnelish trainers in France are behind the times in their meth- ods. An American trainer, with his up-to-| date ideas, easily suppiants the old tra‘ner and beats him out whh horses that have been failures,. His success has soured the Freneh and English.

Whenever Mr. Rose could lay off some of these wagers at better figures. he did so and ‘scalped’ off a percentage.

What I did was done in self-defense, as we expect to’ prdéve at the trial. I waited un- ‘ttl I céuld wait no longer, and I killed him. “Now I want.to get it over with. I want to go to trial.

It was his association with a preacher which, indirectly, brought about his cap- ture. Murray comes of a family of blacksmiths. His father, John Murray, now nearly 80 years old, is a blacksmith, He had two un- cles and a brother who were blacksmiths. His four sons are blacksmiths. In 1875 Murray, then 26 years of age, was the blacksmith at Williamsburg, a village 10 miles southwest of Mount Vernon. Born at Ashley, he grew up in this section, and was known to the farmers for miles around his town. One of Murray's sisters married Joel Woodrome. The latter had a little step- @aughter, left him by a former wife, .Mur- ray had a younger ayy ot ee ee ii He has a number of grandchildren. He was a blacksmith in Williamsburg, Ill., and continued to work at the forge in Tennessee with intervals of evangelistic work.

The elder Murray said at the boy deserved punishment. He in- vited Patton and Woodrome to go home with him to dinner, but they declined. HOW HE KILLED JOEL WOODROME. According to the story, now almost a tradition in the neighborhood, the men in the buggy drove into town and William Murray, who had ridden in, emerged from a store and shot Woodrome with a re volver as he was alighting from the buggy. Woodrome died 4 hours later. At the time there appeared to be symp- athy for Murray upon the part. of the public. Sim L. White of Mt.

WITH BAER AT THE HEAD NEW COMBINE WILL RIVAL NORTHERN SECURITIES. to Be Represented Will Amount to About 3400,000,000 ana Operations to Be on a Mammoth Scale. Pores to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK. Dec. 6.—J. Pierpont Morgan is to raerge the anthracite coal felds into a giant trust. George F. Baer is to be ai the nead of it. Theee facts were given wide circulation in Wall street this afternoon on supposedly good authority. The new t will rival the Northern Securities Co. is to he wholly as prodigious in scope, and in some respects will outdo it. In planning the big deal the great finan- cler has reached out for al the anthracite properties in the country “orth vowning, and nine coal-carrying roads. The capital to be represented will be very near $400,000,000, and all the workings of the concern on a mammoth scale, _ Mr. Morgan nas already chosen his lieu- tenants, and is ready to pay-down $145, 000, - 000 for the mines of the independent oper- ators. He. will control the huge combines as ab- solutely as other projects he handles, and will,be the ral coal king of the United States. It Is said that the details of the anthracite dea! will soon be told, together with the announcement that the independents have accepted Morgan’s price for their property. President George F. Baer of the Reading Railroad, has promised J. P. Morgan to become head of the holding cOmpany when the anthracite coal road trust is carried through. This statement was made positively today by competent authorities.Mr. Morgan want- ed Mr. Baer to assume the presidency of the Lehigh Vailey. There were two tifh¢gs in the way; first, Mr. Baer's refusal to take on any more burdens and the lesser problem of a law which stood in the way. Mr. Baer is reported to have said to Mr. Morgan: “IT cannot accept the preatdency of Le- high Valihy because I now carry as great & burden, as president of two operating roads, as Ivan stand. “When you want me to become presi- dent of a general corporation to control all the anthracite roads, I shall be giad to accept, but I do not care to direct the individual operations of any roads other than those I now have in charge.”’ It is on the Gistinct understanding that Mr. Baer shall become the head that the new combine of coal roads is being evolved. | oo ~~ - Richmond in the jail corridor with Murray. When Cooper took the prieoner’s supper in, Murray ‘and this man hid behind the door. One of them knocked Cooper down with a fragment of an iron bar. Murray says Richmond did it. Cooper said Murray struck him. At any rate, the two pfisoners made their escape. Cooper, some years before his death ,was elected sheriff, and spent some time trying to locate Murray, without suc- cess. Murray says that he spent that night and all the next day in a wheat field not far from Mt. Vernon. Posses were sent out to retake him, but both he and his companion clinched their escape for the time being. Murray says that he made for the Mis- sissippi river. He crossed the river at Point Pleasant and touched Missouri soil in the sunk lands of the far southeastern section. From Clarkstown, Mo., he went to Kennett, Dunklin County, and thence through the ewamp country, which in those days was almost unknown, both to lumberman and farmer, tnto Arkansas. Remaining oriefly at a little town called Osceola, Murray went into Kentucky. ESCAPED MAN’S FAMILY JOIN HIM. - Having married at 19, Murray left & wife and four small children at Williams- burg. The eldest son, John, was 6 years old. By means which the prisoner dows not care to explain, his wife and children were enabled to join hirfin Princeton, Ky. A few months after his escape he was captured there. “My arrest,” he told me, “‘was brought about by a man whom I befriended. 1 was working at blacksmithing. A man came along who was without funds and was hungry. I fed and provided for him. He seemed to have some knowledge as to who I was. He went and told the authori- ties, and I was arrested. “I got away easily that time. The sheriff had me guarded in a house, ready to be taken to jail. There were two or three men, and I saw a pack of cards in the ~EEOeaeeeee -err-~-~nrn—n eee ee ‘‘was a Methodist preacher as well as @ blacksmith. He tried to make a preacher out of me, too,’’ continued. the prisoner, that merry twinkle returning to his eye. People say that I was a traveling preacher down there in Tennessee. That's not true. I never preached or exhorted. I helped in the work. I sang and did what else I could. DID EVANGELISTIC WORK IN TENNESSEE. Murray saye that the first preacher with whom he was asrociated was Rev. Thomas Sexton, whom he calls “a blacksmith preacher.’ ‘The two traveled about the southerth country dcing evangelistic work. Then Murvay settled down at Dunlap, Se- quatchie County, in a_ wild. and secluded section of Hast Tennessee mountain coun- try,-far from railroads and the sweep and swing of. civilization. Already the had changed his name to William H. Howard, and the place he selected for his permanent home was an appropriate haven for a con- cealed identity. It ig not very far from that country de- scribed in Miss Murfree’s story, ‘““Where the Battle Was Fought.” Practically the only persons from the wide world outside who penetrated to that region when Mur- ray first went thither were the revenue of- ficers on the trial of moonshiners, and many of thoge men never came out again. What happened to them js another story. Murray has an uncle; one of ‘the black- smith Murrays, living near Celina, Clay of years ago he made a trip to see thie relative. He was traveling at that time with Will T. Hale, the Tennessee poet, now of Nash- Dillard Smith. Horace Hale was a singef, The men traveled by wagon, covering much of the mountain country. Murray introduced himself to his uncle as a drummer for an implement house, and did not discloss his identity until he had spent several days under the relative’s roof. Thig visit gave Sheriff Manion his fire clew to the whereabouts of William Mur- ray. Later Murray became a member of the Methodist Church at Dunlap, and sang bass in the choir, his pretty’ daughter, Jennie, being the organist. | “While I lived at Dunlap,” said Murray, “I aid a good deal of work in helping the officers to capture criminals. Having trav- eled a good deal over the mountains T was considered a valuable man for that md of work. I often served as a deputy sheriff, and rather like the duty. I have been an active man all my life.’ A FATAL CONFESSION TO A PREACHER. Three or four years ago Murray again became imbued with religious fervor, and did some evangelistic work with a preach- er. To this evangelist he revealed the fact that he was wanted in Illinois for an of- fense committed early in life. He told the preacher, however, that he felt that he had been forgiven for that of- fense. This preacher related the story of “Mr. Howard” to another traveling evangelist, the Rev. Mr. Jist, who came to Illinois af- terward, and felt tt his duty to inform an officer of the law that a man namod Will- iam H. Howard, living somewhere in Ten- nessee, he knew not wheré, had confessed that he was a fugitive from justice in Ill- nois for an offense, he knew not what, committed many years ago. In the meantime “Mr. Howard” was liv- ing quietly at Dunlap, going to church on Sunday in his go-to-meetin’ clothes, sing- ing iri the choir and overflowing with pride when he beheld his daughter at the organ, for the girl is said to be the belle of her town, and one of the prettiest young women in the Temnessee mountains. Murray hed oxperienced, in the more than 2 years of his residence™in Dunlap, the supreme joys and the supreme sorrows that visit mortal man. He had buried his first wife after the fifth child was born. Then, a few years late, he had married second. union. Growing up at the anvil and the forge, his stalwart sons followed in their fath- er’s footsteps, end became blacksmiths. John is a smith at Inman, Tenn.; Piijah presides over a forge ut Clarksville; Ed- charge of their father’s business. . Two of the fugitive’s daughters married. Mrs. Susan White lives near Dunlap, and Mrs. ldda Lewis resides at Etna, Tenn. Little grandchildren began to loiter about the old blacksmith shop in Dunlap and lisp Murray had beguh to grow old. He felt that he was growing old gracefully. It had been so many years since the sad day at Wiiiamsburg and since any officers, to his knowledge, had found his trail, that fn readiness to keep Germany and Great County, Tennessee, He says that a number} ville; Horace Hale, the poet's brother, and: again, and owe children came to bless the ward and a yovnger wvrother are taking It has become an “open secret” that the winter maneuvers of the great fieet gnth- eréd under Dewey in the vicinity of the Culebra Islands, off Porto Rico, is held Britain within, bounés in their designs on Venezuela.

SHERIFF TOM MANIOW AS MURRAY’S NEMESIS. So the man lived! there in his mountain home, with only that one anxiety between him and perfect rural happiness. When Tom Manion was elected sheriff, William Murray’s nemesis took the road. Manion, still a young man, determined to capture Murray if the fugitive could be found by clever detective work. The deputy sheriff at Springfield, to whom }the itinerant preacher had told of the fugi- tive Illinolgan, communicated with Sheriff Manion. The latter opened correspondence with the preacher, whose knowledge of the real .circumstances was but vague. The preacher said that the man Howard, of whotn he had told, lived somewhere in the trangle between Murfreesboro, Pikeville and Sparta, Tern. Sheriff Manion looked at the map of the Tennessee mountains and felt that he hed undertaken a large task. That triangle in- cludes an extended territory of wild moun- tain country, with many hamlets set in sequestered places, and it ig the home of the moonshiner. But the. sheriff, having this clew, was. determined to run down his quarry if such a thing. were possible by earnest effort. When he learned from the preacher that “Mr. Howard’’ had an uncle living some- where in Clay County, Tenn., he was more firmly resolved to make a personal search. “Tl began hunting Murrey abeuwt three years 2g0," said Manion today. ‘With Deputy Satterfield I started for that part of Teanessee, hoping tc find some clew that woul whereabouts. » back that we went armed with u requisi- tion. on the governor of Tennessee, pro- cured at the request Of Gov.

Stone posed as the representative of the Publie Health Society, a 80- ciety the head and front of which were ex-Gov. Stone and the trust representatives. Ex-Gov. Stone’s office was the office of the society and he paid out its funds. This chapter in ex-Gov. Stone’s record explains the remark of Col. Phelps when he said: ‘‘The only difference between ex-Goy.

Preparations for the Christmas Festival are well under way; the ladies and gentlemen in charge, with the Post-Dispatch, having organized the committees and begun work in earnest. The object of this undertaking is to give every man, woman and child in St. Louls not otherwise provided for a good old- fash.oned, so.id Chgistmas dinner, and every child present gift from Santa Claus’ tree, the gift being a substantial article which will be for winter comfort. This is the third Christmas festiva] projected by the Post Dispatch and it is intended to make it the biggest. Last year 10,000 persons; men and women and little children, took dinner at the Festival and nearly 1600 baskets of good things to eat and other Christmas cheer were sent out to the sick and infirm. More will be done this year. No one in St. Louis need go without a dinner of the Christmas kind on Christmas day, 1902. What will.you give to this good object? Money is needed, of cours®.

This looks like no more funeral sermons, since if we all got what we deserved who would escape whipping? Hamlet's question has never been answered, Nevertheless, no man ever lived, no man ever will live, with- out some merit, and it ought not toe be forgotten when he takes his leave. Of course, the preacher often has great difficulty discovering merits, and if he is not conscientious may lazily fall into hypoc- risy and galvanic panegyric. But that is his fault. He should not yield to temptation. When a man is so modest that hé. conceals his virtues, lest he become conspicuous, he ought not té go to the grave uncelebrated. Modesty covers a multitude of virtues, and a man who never lets the world get a peep at one of them ought to be especially oat. brated for his shy reticence, In this talkative, advertising world aman who keeps a good thing to himself and won't push it along js a cabinet curlo, and preachers should love to give him a show after death. —_ = = '-- The Republican editors condemn gerrymandering in Missouri only, and the demand for local self-government in other states seems to have entirely escaped their notice.

JUST A MINUTE WITH THE POST-DISPATCH POET ~e PHILOSOPHER MY DREAM OF YOU. “Ah, would, my sweet, you were my queen!”’ ¢ Sang Baron Onthedo. ‘In my ancestral home, I ween, The choice you’d never rue. My old retainers would delight To do yqur bidding, dey and night. Your smile to make my castle bright-~ This is my dream of you! “© lovely, sweet Americalenne, Whose heart, I feel, is true, We would be more than happy then, Till death should part us two!

What- has become of the boy who used to wear a tippet, and of the men who wore wristlets, comfurters and yarn gloves? Where is the weman who wore the break- fast shawi and emtroidered skirts? Where are the young men who proudly displayed crocheted neckties and hat-marks with their sweethearts’ initials? What does the city-born and city-bred man. of moderate income know of the joys of being pushed out of bed on a frosty morning to make a fire in an icy stove by amplight with kindling and stove wood he has sawed and split himself? What does he know of the invigorating ‘discomfort of washing his hands and face in water on which ice has formed, and of drying them on a freezing towel? What does he know of yanking coal in from the shed or of piling up the kitchen box high with wood, and stacking it up on tne back porch—enough to last over Sunday? What has become of the boy who used to milk old Bosrie and mix her bran ard water every night and morning? Where is the boy who used to put tallow on his new boots and cry every time he had to wear a new hat? Why, he has gone to the city to run the banks and the dry goods stores, or to Wash- ington to help run the government; for the boys who did all this were the finest boys in the world.

B, H. Colegrove, in “Medical Talk.” Speaking of laughs the most laugh ia the laugh of the summer girl ‘some shook you eae: 'S / other fellow. The most demoralizing lavgh, to Wie rjed ‘man, is the laugh of the family 4 when he comes out and sleps the married man on the back and shouts, ‘It's twins, old man!” | ; The most grotesque laugh is that of the fat woman, at a picnic, when she’s got a pickle in her mouth. The hollowest laugh is the laugh of a map laughs when he sees the necktie his wife has bought him. The cutest, sweetest little laugh is the laugh of your best girl. It generadly costs a couple of theater tickets and a dollar or} two hack fare, though. The most dangerous laugh ts the laugh of a man when he’s getting shaved at the barber shop. The most untimely laugh is that of the the doped watermelon. The most hilarious laugh Is the laugh a the fellow who scoops in the stakes on jack-high bluff. One of the most comical laughs Is that & person who’s got the hives, where mouth sticks way out to one side and nose avts as though it was mad‘ about it’ The most enjoyable ldugh ts the laugh that’s on some ane else. There are sountiess different kinds of laughter. Some pedple’s laughter is soft and mellifivous like the ripple of a meadow brook er the carol of the first rovin of early spring, while other people’s laughter re- mings you of the screech of an old turkey gobbler. A nice, clean honest laugh is worth going a goed many rods to hear. Next to having 4 good laugh all to yourself we like to hear a-laugh like that. Laughter ig. one of nature's best medi- cines and beats pills and bitters out of sight. Laughter brushes down the cobwebs from the ceiling of the brain, dusts wp and sweeps out oli musty whims and cranky notions and gloomy forebodings, and adorns. the chambers of thought with the beautiful pictures of hope. When laughter enters the front door, despair scoots up the chimney flue and remorse flies to the oat-hole. The phantoms of dread commence to dance funny break-downs, and the imps of gloom look like the members of. e little German band. : SOME QUEER TOWNS. From the Philadelphia Press. Keiberk, near Cracow, is a town which is located under ground and is cut entirely from rock salt. There are 3000 inhabitants, all workers in the salt mines, and all the houses and streets are of the purest white. Carracross, on the west coast of Ireland, is composed entirely of boats. There are large stone quarries near by, but the in- habitants stoutly decline to have a proper house, on the ground that an inverted fish- ing boat is more. comfortable. There is probably in all the world only ore town buflt of gtass, and that ts to be found near Yellowstone Park. The glass is not artificial, but natural, being formed by ages of volcanic action. It is dark green or black in hue, but in every other respect resembles the artificial product. Easily cut into slabs and quite impervious to the weather, it makes excelient building material. Bareira, in Portuguese East Africa, is the only gine city in existence. Zinc is the only material capable of withstanding the pecu- liar climate. It took the some thousands of people who make up the population six months to build the place. Hospital, church, arsenal and every dwelling is of sinc, the dead are buried in sinc coffins, and even most of the railway cars are of zine throughout, THE SINGLE THOUGHT AND TWO ' « SOULS, From Lippincott’s Magazine for December. “Smoking on the car!" exclaimed the dis- gusted woman as Dennis Flaherty with his short-stemmed pipe took his seat be- side her.

Diaz have been uttered by young men who point of refreshing the spiritual side of our nature, not only by the aid of religion, but by the deliberate maintenance of the practice of reading imaginative literature. Most of us have known that practice at ane time or another, generally at the stage when life and literature are alike new, and dus for the first time; bat as other interests and professional cares and duties increase, the study of Uterature is apt to be aside, and the taste for it is in danger of becoming atrophied. It is not enough to read contemporary fi which is, as a rule, merely @°form of menta) relaxation; SF inor is it enough to read books of informa- tion, such as. lo ipa and biographies, itable cost of mental indigestion. What is necessary is to turn to the masters of imaginative iterature, whose thoughts move on the higher planes of the eternal verities, who ‘ead us away from the smail interests of daily Ufe to the spiritual truths which alone make daily life worth living. Some people can dwell among these spir- {tual truths without external assistance; bit the majority: of mankind need such assistance, and can find it in the words of these prophets of our race. Every lover of literature has his own special masters, to whom he can have recourse without fear of disappointment; but while we have, in our own language, alone, Shakspeare and Bacon, Milton and Bunyan, George Her- bert and Sir Thomas Browne, Words- worth and Shelley and Keats, Carlyle and Emerson, Ruskin and Pater, Browning and Matthew Ariold, all tastes can surely find something to help and satisfy them. SLAVES Frank Putnam in the National Magazine. Tell your friend you mean to spend your life fighting for money and power, and he will, if he be an averags man, applaud your decision; tell him you mean to dwell in the country, gaining a simple livelihood from your labor, and he will either not believe you mean it, or will conclude you are a beaten competitor in the city’s race. Most people’ do not know they are the slaves of thelr modern improvements, so-called. The bulld houses larger than they can occupy-- for shuw; they vinch and scrape year after year to pay for them, and after that con- tinue pinching to pay taxes, repairs and other maintenance charges.

The bride clung to him, and he was unable to defend him- self from the blows that were rained upon his head. His friends. were late in arriving to his succor. “Kill him! I'll kill him before he can hive my daughter!’ shrieked the frenzied mother. Their followers took up the cry.

Chief Beckleen the following morning placed the ringleaders of the attack upon the bridal party under arrest. The tr.ais before Magistrate Nance in the town- hall were largely attended. Farmers from miles around drove into town and incom- ing traine on the Burlington road were crowded with curiosity seekers. A summons had been issued fur the presence of Mrs. Stombaugh in court as a witness for the state. The defense, represented by 8. L.

Such enterprises are usually handied by men of very large means, who combine in purchasing larg? tracts of land, so that they absolutely control its development. A manor woman of limited means who attempts to go into Real Estate must purchase a small ‘ot or two and run the risk of a saloon or stab.e being placed next his property, wiping out his possible profit if not his entire investment. Hecan control only the particular lot which he purchased, while his. chance of profit must always depend on the development of the sur- rounding property. Yet a combination of small investors is one of the most powerful financial forces possible, the smal ness of the insividual investment making the safety of all, and when their investment is secured by the finest residence property in a great city, which is the most solid and substantial in the country, and whose growth in the j t few years has outstripped that of any city in the West it becomes the opportunity of al ; time. St. Louis, unlike any other city, has spread mostly in one direction=i westward—in the growth of its fine residence district, and, again unlike any other city, it has grown up golid as it has spread. Twenty years ago the fit residence district was from 18th st. to Grand av. Today it is west of King’s highway. Twenty years ago property west of King’s highway sold for from $20. to $50 per foot. Today it.commands as high as $400 per foot. ~ # The limits north and south of the fine residence district are Olive St. Road and Forest Park.

It is fairly well written in -ome parts. The dedication is as follov® . DEDICATED TO FATHER. “To my father, Gen. Edward Leslie Moli- neux, with reverence.”’ By way of preface he writes: “The following walifs are products of my imagination; little stories that came into my mind from time to time. Some of them are from letters written home while 1 was confined in the Tombs Prison in New York City and in the death chamber at Sing Sing. In them I have not inflicted myself to any great extent upon the reader. Herein is chiefly what I saw when trying to look upon the bright side. ‘There are also glimpses of the side which cannot be made bright, look at it as one may. “But if anything in these pages leads some one to think of what must be en- dured in either place, let me say that no suffering was ever willftlly caused by the officials with whom I came in contact dur- ing my banishment, and I take this oppor- tunity to thank them all, without excep- tion, for their consideration, sympathy and unvarying kindness to me and mine.’’ DEATH HOUSE SCENES. ‘of cirouit. court were disposed of to the | highest bidder before the ‘courthouse.

His home in exile in this lovely country that knows no winter is a villa, picturesque and comfortable and set in never-faliing shade. There he lives in pastoral simplicity, with several personal attendants and his grand- children. Mr. Kruger never leaves his peaceful home. Each day the Boer patri- arch is seen sitting In his garden for en hour—from 11 a. m. till noon—surrounded by his family. Much of the remainder of his time is given to hi correspondenc?, for while he is crushed and vanquished, yet as | the leader of a famous lést causs he is e till | | an important and interesting figure in af- fairs of state. He dictated the story of his life, which the Century company has printed in this country, to H. C. FPredell, his private sec- retary, and to Piet Grobler, former under secretary of the South African Republic. The notes made by dictation were harded over to the Rev. Dr. A Schowalier, who spent weeks with Mr. kruger while he elucidated and elaborated them. Then the American editio1 was translated from the original Dutch of Mr. Kruger and from the German text of the cierzyman by A. Teixeira de Mattos. The story Is told in the first person, and begins with the ninth ‘year of the famous Boer. It re- lates how. he. killed nis tirst lion, at a very tender age; his experience with panthers, rhinoceroses, buffaloes and clepharts. In the main the book is a stur¥ of South Africa and the Boer people. Here is one ing Gent of ‘another sort: ee the year 1845 my two brothers, Douw and Theunnis, Duow's wife, my own wife and I, were making a halt near Secucunl’s town, not far from the place where the Spekboom river joins the Steenport river, in the nerth of the Transvaal. We out- spanned (camped) and I went in the course of the day on the veldt to shoot some game. I was mounted and carried my old big four- pounder. “After about an hour's ride I came across a rhinoceros and shot at it, but I only succeeded in woi!nding the animal, ard it fled into the wood. dismounted quickly, ready to shoot again, but moved only a few steps away from my horse, lest the rhinoce- ros should turn to attack me, in which case it would be necessary to remount at once. “IT gucceeded in getting a second shot but at that very moment my rifle exploded just where I held it with my left hand, and my left thumb, the Jock and the ram- rod lay before me on the ground and the barrel of the n behind me. “a d no time to think, for the furious ~ was almost upon me, so [ ju . horse and galloped away as fast as I could, with the rhinoceros in fierce pur- suit, until we came to the ford of a little spruit, when my pursuer came to the ground and so allowed me to ride quietly in the direction of our wagons.

A boil, or abscess, burn, blister, wart, tumor, mole, or the simplest little pimple may be the beginning point.of a malignant, frightful looking Cancerous Ulcer. Apparently there is no difference between a Cancerous and Common Ulcer when they | first_ make their appearance, and for this reason every ulcer, no matter how insignificant or harmless it may seem, and all slow healing sores should excite suspicion and cause alarm, partictlarly if any of your ancestors ever had Cancer, or you have good reason to think your blood js impure; for the sore, after all, is only the outgrowth, the external evidence of polluted blaod, and nothing can check its progress until the cancer tainted, vitiated blood has been purified. All efforts to heal the ulcer by means of salves or other extune! remedies will result in failure, for such treatment can have no possible effect upon the deadly germs and morbid matter that form in the blood and are carried through the circulation to the sore. MOTHER, TWO AUNTS, AND ONLY SISTER DIED OF CANCER OF THE BREAST. I had a Cancer on my left breast, which caused me — pain for three or four years At times the pains were deep and shooting. The ulcer discharged yellow and rather offensive matter, I had given up ell hope, as the doctors gave me no relief. My mother, two aunts mand an only sister died of Cancer of the breast, and I am satisfied that I, too, would have been e but for 8.8.5. I eltsome better after the first bottle, and after using only seven bot- ties, was cured, This was several years ago but have seen no signs of the Cancer since. I would urge all who are suffering from the disease to give S. S. S. a trial. Belton, Mo. Mrs. JaMES CASSELL. Cancerous Ulcers can be reached only by a remedy that acts upon and through the blood system, and this is just what S.S.S. does. It goes to the fountain head of the disease, and A SMALL SORE CAME ON THE INSIDE OF HIS LIP. ref my About the first of February, noticed a small lump on the inside lower lip. It amnoyed me considerably ; the doctor cmtaial it and in a few days it dropped off, but shortly after another came and broke into an open sore, and in spite of the | number of remedies I tried, it would not heal. I then went to another, and he gave me something to put on the sore, saying if it did not cure he would cut the sore ott. I used his medi- cine, but received no benefit. I decided a blood purifier was what I needed, and be- gantotakeS.S.S. The ulcer was growing rapidly, with some pain and a crawling, creeping feeling. At firat S. S.

At 1 o’clock Sunday morring Mrs. Jaroes Abernathy of 4313 North Market street, after 44 hours of unbroken slumber, was still sleeping as peacefully as a child. Her breathing was as easy as though she was enjoying normal slumber and had not been fn the same condition since 5:30 o'clock Friday morning. There were no indications of pain, and the anxious watchers could detect nothing whih indicated that she was undergoing any discomfort. Mrs. Abernathy’s condition is regarded a@s a most unusual one by her physician. Dr. J. E. Chambers, Taylor and Grand avenues. At 9:30 Friday morning, after preparing her husband's breakfast, she walked to her bed, lay down and fell asleep. All efforts to revive her since have failed. Her pulse has been strong, her breathing regular and her color natural, The Abernathys are early risers. Before she fell asleep Mrs. Abernathy had heen reading a paragraph about Charles F. Kel- ly’s appearance at the Four Courts. Sud- denly her voice broke, she rose from her chairjsand walked to the bed, a few steps away. Then she fell into the deep slum- ber which has proved inexplicable to the physician and to the woman’s husband and friends.

W. G@. Sprague, a citizen, applied for an injunction to restrain the aldermen from passing the franchise in its present form and the mayor from signing the franchise If passed. His contentions were that the char- ter of the city gave the government the iright to reduce the rate of transportation and otherwise control the street railway at the expiration of the franchise term and Judge Mullins agreed with the contentions that the granting of the franchise would be bartering away the city’s right under its constitution and issued the injunction prayed for. It was distinctly stated in the injunction that the court realized its lack of jurisdic- tion in the matter, were the legislative act of the city council onby at stake, but insist- ed that the rights of the people were being infringed upon and it was clearly a right of any citizen to prevent it if possible. The city council and the mayor totally ignored the ‘njunction, and the franchise was duly passed and signed. On the day he signed the ordinance, Mayor Wright ‘COURT SENDS DENVER satires: THOUSANDS WANT LIFE’S NECESSARIES IN GAY LONDOK Poor in Abject Poverty, Rich Recklessly Extravagant.

In striking contrast to this condition is the spirit of revelry and extravagance that possesses London's rich.

The social set is heedless of the appalling condition that prevails on the other side of the city. The theaters and fashionable cafes are filled every night with fashionable folk.

Trust Company Has Gone Beyond Sanguine Hopes, This. corporation has in a short time taken a place tn-the front rank of west- ern financial institutions. Its origin was of such a character as to predicate a success- ful career, but it has gone beyond the most sanguine expectations of its founders. It was organized in May, 1901. The immediate success of the company was such aS to make it necessary within six months after its organization, to double its capital and surplus. The building which it has remedeled into one of the architectural adornments of the city, is located in the heart of the business district, and represents a value of about $1..009, 000. The success of the Commonwealth Trust Co. is due to che fact that it is dominated by strong combination of business and capifal, and to the further fact that its policies are broad enough to meet every re- quirement of up-to-date financiering and banking.

CONTROL ENTIRE PRODUCT Capital Stock of National Lead Co. to Be Increased to $60,000,000 and Preferred Stock to Be Re- tired. Officials of St. Louis plants interested in the $60,000,000 combination of manufactur- ing lead concerns, being furthered by the Whitney-Guggenheim-Eikins crowd of New York, yesterday practically admitted that the negotiations for the taking over of the local plants have been concluded. The St. Lvuis concerns which are to be in the large merger include the Collier White Lead Works, the Hoyt Metal] Co. and the Markle Shot and Lead Co. of Granite City. the latter corporaiion being one of the langest of its kind in the country. The National Lead Co., whieh already has a branch in this ‘city, ig also to be con- nedted with the new combine, which, in fact, will be simply the absorption of the other companies by the Nationa! Co. The plan, as already outlined, and as admitted to the Post-Dispatch last evening, provides that the National Lead Co. be- come the operating and hoiding company. The present capital of the National Lead Co. is $15,000,000 7 per cent preferred stock and an equal amount of common -stock, which does not pay a dividend. It is prob- able that the common stock of the Na- tional Co. will be increased to $30,000,000 end the debentures ‘will be issued up to the eame re, and the purchase price for the various underlying companies will in- clude the paying for the plants in the ad- ditional stock to be put out, the pre t prcteesed Lead stock. being retired by tHe ce of the debentures. Representatives of the Messrs. Guiggen- heim, ineluding Harry Payne Whitney, son of William C. Whitney, and Daniel Guggenheim, were in this city a few "weeks age. when it is said that they met the officials of the various local corporations and the details of the absorption were ar- ra tional Lead Co. will absolute control of practically all the manufactures of lead in the United States, in the cities of Bos- ton, Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, Cleve- land and Louis, and which includes the manufacture of lead pipe, sheet lead, shet and white lead. WITHOUT A MATCH, What is a man without a match? A matchless man. And the stcry of a matchices man is certainly a matchless story when it proves to be a novel without a wedding as the finale. But this is the story of a matchiess Christmas budget. The Christmas numbcr of the Sunday Post-Dispatch with its many pages of wholesome mirth and bright cheerful Christ- mas reading will be out Dec. 14. It will be a matchless advertising medium. It will invade 200,90 homes, and reach over one milion Christmas buyers—at the right time ta meot the Christmas seller—when each is anxious to see the other? And the union will be brought about by this matchless paper. It will be a dollar’s worth of Christ- mas literature for—a nickel. SIMPLE PEASANTS WIN PRIZE Award of Virtue ($400) Goes to Three Brave Bretons, Who Saved Many Lives. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1002, by the Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, Dec. 6—The Prige of Virtue awarded by the Academic Francaise has been awarded this season to three simple Bretons whose splendid bravery saved many lives. A three-masted schooner from Marseilles was wrecked off their coast and it seemed impossible to save its crew because of the high seas. But these three men, in the very teeth of death, rowed to the rescue in their little boat and saved the greater part of the crew, who had given up hope. One did not even know how to swim. The brave nen’s names are Floch, Bonrel and Tanguy. The prize is $400 argi will be divided be- tween them. President nouncement. at the annual meeting, a charming tribute to their heroism.

W. P. Wilson, the special World's Fair commissioner in these faraway islands of Uncle Sam. . There is no other home life in all the world’ so picturesque as that of these Filipino .tree-dweliers, whose. bird-like little houses are built high up in the tree tops, where ey rock and Tattle with -every.- wind. . The tree-dweller is one oe those iit- tle brown men ‘who ‘ate to make, with their quaint and picturesqué welves. ani tustoms, theschief feature in thé an- thropological- exhibit at the great Fair. oI They come from remote. par.s of the ’ islands, and those to be. brought to St. Lauis wilt “ be the first ‘ever taken. away from, thetr | ‘island forests im the far-south: Haat. The'Filipion tree-dwelling is gained oy a long. bamboo ladder, stretching from the eerie-like house down to the _ ground. The tree-dweiller and all his hoysehold can run up and down these ‘swinging, swaying and perilous stairs: with an. agility that has made more’ than one Filipino’ monkey and great fiying lizard green with a great envy. In the Philippines. the tree-dwellers build in palms. At Forest Park they wil} put their houses in the oaks, hickories,” ashes, elms and sycam that grow. “in..this. climé.- Dr. -Wilson has asked geet trees for the purpose in boats ara nowhere quite so interesting to see as th«y ere on the Island of Moro, one of the Philippines. 3 The Moro boatmen and water dwel- lers are the real amphibians of the human family, for they are equally at. home asea and ashore. Like the Filipino tree dwellers, who are to come with them to the St. Louls Fair, the. Moro water dwellers long ago adopted this type of dwelling as a protection against things that creep and crawl. The water dwellers locate their houses out in the center of the va- rious lakes which abound in the is- lands. They are bulit on a sort of a ‘aft which is anchored to one spot by means of bamboo poles and the vege- tation which grows up from the bot- tom of the lake. The only access to these houses is by means of the Phil- ippine boats or canocs, of which there are séveral kinds, , Between 500 and a thousand Filipino workmen will be brought to the World's Fair to construct thése and other houses which will form the Phi!!- ippine exhibit. Nearly 100 native bulld- ings of one kind and another wi¥ be buliit. In addition to the strange buildinzs. a large number of the queér-looking craft to be found on Philippine waters will.be brought to St. Louis. A long shelving beach will be left on the lake out at the Fair Grounds for the use of the canoemen in their water sports. It is stated by -Commissianer Wii- gon that -all types of dsland aré¢hi- tecture will be shown.

R ” Has | % - . ® Mt 4 Dr. Furniss Has Spent a Year Among Them and Finds Them Delightful in All Things Save the Horrible Religious Rite of Cutting Off Human Heads. ERETOFORE the name “head hunters” has always conveyed to the mind of civilized man an impression of horrible savages, with frightfully mutilated faces and a bloodthirsty desire for cravings for human heads. murder, that they might satisfy their But if the testimony of Dr. William Henry Furniss, who has spent several months among them, is to be believed, they are simply uneducated aborigines, imbued with a religious fervor, which isto be appeased with nothing but the head of their fellow men. , ; The head hunters are a tribe or race of savages living in the far interior of Borneo, They wear no clothing, but men and women alike tattoo their bodies un- til they appear to be clad in openwork silk tights. They mutilate their faces by stretching great holes in the lobes of the ears and plucking out their eyebrows and cutting gashes in their foreheads. They also drill holes in their teeth through ‘which they put pieces of metal. The head hunting consists in cutting off the heads of their comrades instead of simply taking their scalps. When enemics are unhandy they take the heads of their slaves or weaker friends. Their houses are built to protect them from at- tacks, always on the banks of a river, so that they can take at once to their é6 OULD contrasts be more emphatic than the perfect peacefulness # of our surroundings and the thought that a man as benignant as Aban Avit should cherish as his highest aim in life to add to that cluster of human heads from the rafters just atove us and gently swaying in the heat ascending from the flames? _ “Ig it conceivable that this gentle-hearted man and his circle of good friends could take pride and pleasure in recognizing and in rehearsing the slashes and gashes borne by each head?

The small one is that of a young girl who tried to escape from the rear of the house when they burned out those Madrangs, away over near Rejang fiver. They can remember them all-—chief, slave, man, woman and gir‘.”’ So writes Dr. Wititiam Henry Furniss in his “Home Life of the Head Hunters of Borneo,"’ a beautiful book, {Nustrated with wonderful photographs of the people, which is published by J. B. Lippincott & Co. Dr. Furniss lived for more than a year with these people, and places them far in advance of any savages he has ever met. It was in the heart of Borneo, 12,000 miles from his own home, that Dr. Furniss lis- tened to the story of Aban Avit, the genial, courteous head-hunter host, of how he had taken the trophies. The traveler ventured to say that in his own land such a custom would be regarded as horrible. “Oh, Blood Brother,”’ he asked the Bor- nean chief, “why is it that all you people of Kalamantan kill each other and hang up their thheads? What does Aban Avit think of it?’ ’ “Fe turned to me in utter surprise at first with eyes half closed, as doubting that he heard aright,” says Dr. Furniss, ‘and jetting the smoke curl out of his mouth for ‘a moment he replied with untoward ve- hemence: “No, Tuan (gentleman). No! The cus- tom. @ good, beneficent custom, bequeath- ef to us by our fathers and our fathers’ fatheré. It brings us blessings, plentiful harvests, and keeps off sickness and pains.

Blessings came quick and fast. The river ran up ll, they reached their home almost im- , and found the sick well, and crops, planted only 15 days before, ready for the harvest. “Rajah Tokong and all his people were convinced on the spot that it was because they had followed the advice of Kop the Frog,” Aban Avit went on, “and they vowed a vow that ever afterward the heads of thelr enemies should be cut off and hung up tn their houses. That is the story of Rajah Tokong, Tuan. We all follow his good example. These heads above me have brought me all the blessings I have ever had; I would not have them taken from my home for all the silver in the country.” When the chief was asked how he would like to have his own head cut off he re- plied: “Tuan, I do not want to become dead any more than I want to move from where I am; if my head were cut off, my second halt would go to the Pields of the Dead where, beyond a doubt, I should be happy. The Dayongs (the priests, wise men, the translators of omens) teil us, and surely , that these who have been have taken many heads, as I respected In that other world plenty of riches.” . t told out of his own experi- head-hunter ts educated.

That’s the way to become a man; a baby is afraid of blood, Tuan. No man can be brave who doesn’t love to see his spear draw blood.’’ From which it may be gathered that Dr. Furniss’ gentle and benignant friend was & pretty bloodthirsty old man, as indeed are all the Borneans. The houses are built on pilés, because the banks overficw during the rainy season, All the houses of a village are under one roof. A new home is simply an addition to the big structure, a partition separating the different families. In front is a common veranda, which takes the place of a main street. Some of these houses are a quar- ter of a mile long and shelter from 60 to 100C persons. On the bank of the river are usually four or five posts, about eight feet high, which are put up after various successful hunting raids, and on them are tie@ vari- ous fragments of the enemy—a rib or an arm or a leg bone. These offerings are supposed to drive away the evil spirits that might wish to harass the inmates of the house. They also serve as a warning to enemies who may be planning an at- tack. In the old days, and not very long ago, it was the custom when a new house was built to thrust into the excavation for the heavy upright post a young girl slave, alive, and the mighty pest was then planted on her body, crushing out her life as a pro- pitilary offering to the demons that they should not molwst the dwelling. This cus- tom has been abolished, through the infiu- ence of civilized governments, and a pig or a fowl has been substituted. It was the privilege of Dr. Furniss to ac- company a band of Kayans on a head- hunting expedition. The British govern- ment, under circumstances when justice seems to warrant retaliation permits a head-hunting expedition. In this particu- lar instance the Lalongs threatened to avenge the slaying of one of their number, who was a thief, and whose head had been taken at the order of the government by S oieeill Py - VES SS ‘ BER ‘S \\) C& ORNAMENTED HEAD HUNTER.

At these places it usually stayed a week. Two days of each week were given over to a conven- tion. This was attended by local’ and state authorities. At the convention the build- ing of good roads was emphasized and as- sociations for the building of good roads wero formed. The reset of the week was devoted to building roads and explaining the manner of bullding. A section of road was taken and draincd. Part of it was built with one material, part with another, in order that those inter- ested might see the way of working with each. This plan was continued throughout the trip, which was completed some time about the first of November. When the story of the train had been told. of course I wanted to know what such wise persons as the national high- way commissioners considered the best road. I found ouf. It’s an ideal macadam road. I also found out how to build such a road. First you must have your rcad rolled and graded so that it is dry «nd firm.

When the rolling process is over, rock about two inches in diametor must be spread on top to the depth of four inches. This must be rolled also. Then comes the finishing touch—a layer of hard, durable material which will cement and bind as does the icing on a layer cake. Sixteen feet is wide enough for such a road, and in some places they are made only nine feet wide. The road mostly used, however, is the dirt road. The road mostly condemned is the corduroy road. Building dirt roads sounds HNke an easy job. It isn't often done successfully, how- ever. Too many times the dirt road is a drainage canal. Dirt roads must be well drained and well crowned. Crowning is fixing up the center of the road so that it slopes gradually to each side. The National Road Association has s¢v- eral objects in view at the present time. One is to make the paying or road tax not only the particular duty of the farmer. Al! property interests are dependent upon good roads and ali should bear the burden, is the argument of the association.

What strange adventures these you the world in Lieut. Harlow’s Nautical Preparatory School. ‘ai? is to be called. . NEW YORK, Dec. 3. Special Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. VER in Perth Amboy a huge, full- O rigged eailing ship is being built. It is almost 300 feet long and so wide that when it climbs up the, steep sides of the ocean waves its vast decks, from end to end, will look like the section of a hilly street. It is the Young American, the first pri- vate school-ship ever built. In this big ves- gel the young Americans are preparing to gail around the world, with the before- mentioned staff of professors, in order to combine the business of education with the pleasure of travel. The ‘‘Nautical Preparatory School” had ite inception in the brain of Lieutenant- Commander Harlow, one of the finest of- ficers in Uncle Sam's navy. Even before he fought the Spaniards at Santiago Lieut. Harlow had begun to plan his boys’ “nautical school.” “I gee no reason,” said he, “why a boy of 18 or 19 should enter college practically ‘ignorant .of the countries which he is to study about. I will build a big ship and take the boys around the world before they enter college.’’ The Young America is the result. Imagine a well-equipped boys’ school at gea. Imagine studying your Plato and your Cicero and the glories of the old Roman Empire with the ruins of the Colosseum and the Pantheon almost in sight. Imagine, too, a completely furnished dormitory, gymnasium, library, museum and laboratory all afloat on the blue ocean and sailing to every port. There will be no long-a-beds on the Young American. Who could sleep with Alexandria in sight or the wonderful bay _ @f Naples over the port bow? Ne ie on ee been since he became an expert himeelf— ace do not imagine if you are one of ng chaps will have as they travel around For that is what this the Young Americans that Lieut. Harlow means that you shall have a life that is all work and no play. The 250 pupils are to be subject to the discipline incident to sea life under United States navy regulations. The school is planned on strictly naval lines. The young Americans are to be regarded as cadets. These will be formed into com- panies and the companies into sections. Cadet officers will be appointed monthly on the basis of merit in studies and de- portment, more especially the latter. But even being an officer will have its little drawbacks, as they will act as offi- cers- of the watch and perform duties iden- tical similar rank. These duties, however, are only for pur- poses of physical development, occupation and reward of merit. They will be per- formed outside of school hours and will be merely nominal, as the actual work of the ship will be done by an ample crew of sea- men, mechanics and servants and the young Americans will take no part therein. All cadets will be taught to hand reef and steer merely as part of the necessary education every man should have. But they will in no sense be considered a part in the management of the ship and will never be called on for manual labor, ex- cept sail and spar drills.for gymnastic ex- ercise. A competent physical director will have charge of the physical training of the young Americans. In addition to the reg- ular class work with dumbbells, single sticks and naval setting-up drills there will be exercises aloft. Fach cadet's physical development will be charted and watched by the authropo- metrical system used at some of our uni- versities. In many ways the school will be similar with those of the ship's officers of © to that of the United States Naval Acad- emy. Lieut. Harlow believes that rewards for good behavior are more effectual than punishment for bad behavior. Conse- quently he will encourage class, squad and individual rivairy. The motives for good deportment will be shown monthly by the pftivileges given the cadet officers, and the extra trips on shore. Punishments, if any, will be the de- privaticn of pleasures rather than the im- position of irksome duties. The school will be strictly non-sectarian. Morning and evening prayers and Sunday services will Se att@nded by all the ‘cadets. The chaplain will instruct in ethics and at- M4 “th tend to that moral and religious training dos, Trinidad, Grenada, St. Vincent, St. Lu- desired by all parents. As'in the United States army and naval schools, the devel- opment of personal honor and manliness »among the cadets will be constantly striven for. Possibly the cne thing which the young Americans will like above all others, is the time set apart for school hours—from 8:30 a. m. to 12:30 p. m. The boys will age os all the long after- noons toc exercise, and to sight-seeing and to study—not of books, but from cbserva- tions. The evenings will be devoted to study or amusement, as the pupil may elect. If a boy should feel indisposed, two regu- lar physicians will be at his call. It will be the duty of these physicians to make rigid inspection of the food and the ship. While in port every young American will have full opportunity to go on shore,, pro- vided his conduct has warranted the priv- ilege. The cadets will he conducted to all places of interest, always in charge of a professor. From scGme ports trips will be made into the interior by parties of cadeta in charge of professors. For example, it is the intention of Lieut. Harlow to have the boys taken from Havre to Paris, from Civito Vecchia to Rome, and from Alexandria to the Pyramids. The visits to different countries will always be preceded and followed by lectures by the professors. The cadets will also be called _ ANY BOY CAN DEF E WVSE0 orn, POSITION ASPIN BOOMERANG. a OOMERANG throwing, which up to this time has been supposed to be an accomplishment, possessed’ solely by the Australian bushmen, has been put ~ On the stage as a vaudeville attraction.

But what most interested the audiences who witnessed the throwing was when Mr. Rawson stepped to the front of the stage and with all his might hurled a boomerang out into the audience. Intui- tively every one ducked, but they need not have done so, for the boomerang sailed gracefully over the heads of the audience, completely circled the theater and fell back on the stage at his feet. Mr. Rawson has been practicing boomer- ang throwing for 10 years, but has ogly been able to throw on the stage for about four years. This is his first season with the attraction in America, as he has been in England for the past four seasons. He now makes a specialty of short distance throwing. When he first began throwing he says his boomerangs wouldn't turn in a five-acre lot. Sometimes they would only go 20 or 30 feet and stop and fall to the Sround. At other times it seemed they wouldn't ever stop. Then again they would €O out, mount the air and go whirling away, finally taking a notion to descend a hundred yards or more behind him. Mr. Rawson says he walked at least 25 miles the first day chasing after them. It proved so interesting to himi, however, that he was out again the next day. Nothing definite ts known of the origin of the boomerang. It probably been used hundreds of years by the Australian na- tives. It is said that at one time an old king. or chief, was lying under a tree asieep. On waking he amused himself watching the leaves falling fram ‘the trees. He noticed that certain peculiar- shaped leaves instead of falling to the ground almost straight descended in cir- cles, and from them he got the idea of the boomerang. It has always been sup- posed and generally accepted that no white man could ever become an expert with them. The eccentricity of the boomerang can determined enly by the application * e age Aas THROW THESE BOOMERANGS RAWSON IN COSTUME As a ‘ JF BORNEO — Ne THROWER eorder of intelligence.

Make the other side slightly round and whittle the wood down until it is about three-eighths of an inch thick at the thickest part. The edges should be cut down to the thickness of the back of the blade of a jack-knife. The ends must be slightly pointed and the end that is not held in the hand should be slightly turned up, just as you might turn up the corner pf a card. If you cannot find a stick with a natural curve, get a piece of hickory or ash two and one-quacter Inches square and from 28 to 30 inches long, and have it steamed and bent to the proper curve. This curve should be sufficient to make it about six inches from the Inside of the bent place of the boomerang to a string drawn across from one end of the boomerang to the other. This should be whittled down the same as the naturally curved stick, so that it will be three-cighths-of an inch thick at the center and gradually growing thinner toward the ends and sides. In throwing the boomerang, grasp it firmly in the hand so near the end that the end is entirely hidden by the hand. Be certain to have the flat side of the boom- erang next to the palm. In learning to throw, hold the boomerang horizontally, otherwise you will probably throw it into the ground. After you have become more proficient in the art you can hold it more perpendicularly when you make your cast.

GARNER. © you know that monkeys reason in D the same manna as men? There ' Was a time when sucha declaration would have shocked the orthodox mind, but in this era of research the minds of mén are not startled at strange deduciiors, and they do not revolt at new convictions. The students of mental science now ac- cept the fact that the minds of men and monkeys are essertially the same and work by like means te like ends. It is not the purpose of this article to advance or to discuss any subtle theory of speech or reason, but assuming the fact that these faculties are'no longer denied to the apes and monkeys I shal! simply proceed to relate certain facts which have been tabylated concerning them. It is not claimed that they have specific mames for things, or that their speech is capable of conveying delicate shadees of thought, but it is evident that they are able to designate in some way members of their own bands and articles of food of certain Classes. It is also evident that words implying action are sufficiently exact in -neaning to direct the movements of those to whom they are addressed, and it is apparent that words of warning define or imply the source and nature of the danger. Sounds denoting advance, attack. retreat or flight are sufficiently definite in mean- ing to guide their actions, and are con- etrued alike by all members of the band. The ideas which they cxpress are not mere vague suggestions of the subject in mind, hut some of them qualify in some degree the primary meaning of others. The same remarks are true concerning their methods of reasoning and the extent to which they are carried. The mechanism and processes of mind are the same as in the human being. There is no adequate reason why we should hesitate to admit that these animals reason. We have so long disseminated the heresy that man alone possesses the facul- ties in question that we are loath to yield to the fact that these other animals share with us all the blessings of life. The selfish thought of man's divinity is only the outgrowth of his own vanity. The threadbare term of instinct has s0 long been the vague and easy means of according for the conduct of animals with- out explaining it, that we usually ascribe all their actions to it. In human speech are often found two or more distinct ways of expressing the same idea, and in human logic there are often two or more methods of reaching the same solution. The fact that the speech of mon- keys js limited to a few words does not lessén the reality of their speaking, and the fact that their method of calculation is ob- scure does not lesson the reality of their calculating, and when a monkey foresees @ certain end and puts into action certain causes to produce it, his logic is not the less rea) than that of man. In the chimpanzee the faculty of reason and also that of speech have risen to a much higher plane than in any other si- mian, and those who are familiar with his habits of life attribute to him a power of speech not far inferior to that of the lower types of men. These apes have a rude form of patri- archal government, in which the father ap- pears to be the chief. He directs the move- ments of the band, leads them on their marches, selects their place for sleeping and breaks camp for them. It is well known that these animals hold councils or pala- vers, as they are called, and have some faint idea of justice and the rights of own- ership. In addition they have the greatest range of sounds and can express the great- est number of ideas in the most exact Wmanner of any animal below man. While my original object was the study of the speech of apes and monkeys, it is only natural that my attention has been drawn to their mental habits in conjunc- tion therewith—their modes of life, etc. As every form and degree of reason in- volves. the faculties of perception, I have made many experiments with the view of * gscertaining the ability of apes to discern color, form, dimension and number. As a result, I found that some of their facul- . tles are much more acute than those of other animals. As a means of testing their sense of color I used a series of cups, one each of black, white and red, and three balls of corre- sponding colors. The balls fit into the cups, and the pur- pose was to see whether or not the animal could distinguish these colors and place the balls into cups of like color. The first difficulty was to make the ape understand where I wished him to put the ball, and in order to avoid confusing him I used only one cup and ball at a time un- til his mind firmly grasped the idea of putting the bal) In place. I may remark that in my first experi- _ ments I used the full set, and while the ‘ animal learned where to put the ball the color problem never became quite clear to _ him, although other experiments with the chimpanzee, however, utterly failed to learn at all. He appeared to be quite in- different as to how the balls were placed, or was very obtuse in placing them, but in another series of experiments he dis- played a keen perception of dimension. By a simple device which I used to test the chimpanzee’s perception of form it was clearly shown that the animal recognized corresponding forms. This fact of itself is important, as it shows that the mind of the animal was capable of discerning the rela- tions of like and unlike parts, and this is a primary step in the process of reasoning, and in the degree of this faculty the ani- mal must be enmesetsael to have the power of reasoning. In performing an experiment with severa! apes to test the strength of “his faculty, I used the following method: In each of three square pieces of board arranged in serial order or they may be used separate- Iv) I cut a whole; one hole was square, one was circular and one triangular. I made a block or plug of wood to fit into each of these holes, and in each block Was driven a nail, to be used as a handle. The ape that learned in the shortest time to fit the blocks in the proper holes was the same one that had practically failed in the color test. Within the first hour or so he arranged the square and circular blocks in their places, but for two or three days the tri- angle bothersd him. In his mind he seemed to get the square and triangle con- fused. To overcome this difficulty I placed the triangle a foot or so away from the other blocks and then he was able to dis- tinguish it more readily, but even when he had learned to do this fairly well, it was always a help to him if the round hole were placed between the other two. In one instance; after the ape has be- come quite familiar with the problem, (tI painted a round, black spot on the surface of the square bleck and a square black spot on the round block. This was a new problem, and for a time the ape was great- ly perplexed. Several times he tried to pull the black spot out of the block and he also tried a time or two ‘o fit the blocks into the wrong holes. By this it could be seen that he had in his mind the vague idea of re- semblance in form between the black spots and the tholes in the boards. When I turned the reverse sides of the blocks he Cleverly Conster had no difficulty in placing them over the right holes, but as they were slightly bev. eled they could not be made to fit, and for some days those black spots were a source of trouble. He finally solved the problem and was able to place the blocks as they belonged, but in doing this was al- ways very slow and secmed to be in doubt. Another series of holes and blocks I used in testing the faculty 6f dimension, the holes in each series differing in size, and each series differing in shape. I only used two forms of holes and blocks for this purpose. Some of the animals easily saw this prob- lem, while others were very tardy in do- ing so, and the same was true of another test of form and dimension combined. I found this problem rather too complex for most of the apes. The things used for this experiment consisted primarily of a large square block and a large round block Within the square block was a small round hole and block to fit into it, and in the large round block a small square hole and a block to fit into it. Of course, the round blocks and round holes were the same shape, and so were the square ones, but of different sizes. Nearly all of the apes that tried the prob- lem of fitting the small blocks where they belonged seemed to have the idea of like forms, but only one out of the four that tried the experiment was able to solve it, and that was the same one that had failed on colors. It is quite..possible, however, that by continuing this series of experiments with an intelligent specimen he would learn to solve it and even go far beyond, for among some of the apes that I have known I have found a remarkably clear perception of form. One of these apes, now in the London Zoological Garden, readily selects the key of bis own cage among a nalf dozen simi- lar keys carried by his keeper, and the only means by which the man himself can distinguish the key is by the form of the slots in the ward. : Another chimpanzee that recently died in Bellevue Garden at Manchester was able to do the same thing with much greater facility, and he also constructed a plug of wood by which he could turn the latch of his cage and escape. “tis was regarded as an exceptionally clever trick, but I re- cently saw a chimpanzee of Africa which was not only able to select any one of three or four keys and insert it into the lock, but he also, by the use of his teeth, read- ily trimmed a piece of wood to fit a square hole te release the latch of a cupboard in which was kept his master's food. There is nv doubt in my mind that if the chimpanzee were j#aced under favcrabie conditions of captivity and bred for a few generations the result would ne a degree of intellig2nce far superior to that now known tn any animal. In carrving out these experime onts I have often been impressed with the conduct of the animals under treatment. The expres- sion of the face and the movement of the hands or other members are so strikingly humanlike that no one can fail to observe the resemblance. In conjunction with these experiments ! have had increased facilities in studying the speech sounds of Apes and the natural manner in which they use them I do not think that they are capable of cxpressing any idea that either might be construed as terms relating to the process, or to actions pertaining thereto, but I find that they use sume of the sounds which I had formerly interpreted as having more re- Sstrictcd meanings. Hcewever, ain soncepts remain in- tact, but their meanings are slightly modi- ficd. For example, a certain sound which I had interpreted as a request, or demand for something to be given, and usually connected with the sound for food in a chimpenzee’s epeech, I find he uses to ex- press desire concerning anything. When the chimmanzec with which I was experi- Cert menting desired the boards and biccks used in the expemment he asked for them by using the same sound as that used in ask- ing for food. When the blocks had been given him, and he desired me to perform the feat for him, he used tune same sound PLASTER PARIS MODEL SHOWS YOU HOW YOUR F you want to be absolutely certain | how the house you propose bullding will look, you may emsily gratify your curiosity, proyided you are willing to pay for it.

It is for the purpose of preventing such dissatisfaction that New York architects have taken to making the plaster models. The plan has been in vogue for some time in the construction of public buildings all over the country. One of the best sam- ples of this sort of work ever seen in the West is the plaster model] of the World's Fair building for the mines and metallurgy display recently exhibited in the window of the Chicago & Alton Railroad. The building was designed by Architect Theo- dore C. Link and the plaster model was made by Richard Kirst, a Kansas City sculptor. Its construction took two and a half months. It has now been removed to GOING TO LOOK the World’s Fair grounds and will be used as a model in constructing the building. The model is constructed on a scale of one- eighth of an inch to the foot. In discussing the model and the idea of making similar models for private dwell- ings, Mr. Link said: “While such a model would be an excel- lent thing and while I have no doubt that any- architect would be glad to furnish one, I do not think that the idea will ever become very popular because of the great additional expense necessitated. Of course, if a man were building a house that was to cost half a million the additional ex- pense would not cut much figure along side of the matter of being certain that the house would be absolutely satisfactory when finished. But we are not building many houses of that price in the West yet. When that time comes I suppose the model will come with it.” MORPHINISM INCREASES ALARMINGLY United STONISHING claims as to the pre- valence of the morphine habit, or morphinism, as it is named by phy- in the United States are made by the celebrated temperance in a recent book on the subject. in the centers of and nervous more and | sicians, Iyer.

As a result of this peddling of the drug he claims that a “hyperdermic needle manta” exists in many places and that new victims of the drug are being added in large numbers. It is gathered from the sale cf morphine in some of the large cities of the United States that not half of the amount sold is traceable to the legitimate demands of phy- sicians and hospitals, says the doctor, and the just Inference is that there must be a large secret consumption of the drvg Sta- tistics of the sales of the drug stores tend still further’to confirm this belief by show- ing that a very large part of the total Is bought by laymen.

The effect of the injec- tion is usually satisfactory, as relief is speedily obtained. Later, when recurrences of pain take place, the remedy is again resorted to. The treatment of morphinism, even when its victims are confirmed in the habit, is by no means devoid of hope. The removal of the drug and the restoration of the func- tions derangements are, according to Dr. Crothers, practically simple, when the physician has full control of the patient and his surroundings. The treatment and after-care require far more skill and tax on therapeutic resources. The abandon- ment of the needle at the start, and the change to some other form of opium or other narcotic to lessen the acuteness of the withdrawal symptome, then the slow or rapid withdrawal of the drug, are the most pracjical means. The hot-air Lath, with massages daily, or more frequently if necessary, is the most valuable procedure. Several drugs are also useful in treatment of morphin- ism. Suggestion and emotions of a vivid kind, such as religion, have been found In many patients to be most effective modes of treating morphinigm. When one considers the increase of mor- phinism, the 'mpression cannot be avoided that the facilities offered to the public of procuring morphine and other narcotics are sipw, with others rapid—according to con-.too easy.

Special Correspondence of the Sunday - Post-Dispatch. a & ome miles north of Leban- on, in Camden County, is a great tract of land, containing some 3000 ee acres, that»will be turned into a national z a «park, provided the necessary legislation ss ean be secured. In the midst of this wonderful tract is the famed Ha-Ha-Tonka, an immense spring. The Osage Indians formerly ‘inhab- ited that portion of the state, and Ha-Ha- " Tonka is of Indian dialect, meaning laugh- _ ing, limpid water. The topography and physical features of the country in the vicinity of the spring are characterized by scenery as grand and im- posing as can @e found anwhere. It is true e there are no lofty mountains, no altitudin- - Ous peaks, but instead there are beautiful ; forests, open woodlands, impulsive moun- taim streams, terraced hills, cavernous canyons, caves, grottos, parks, a natural bridge, lake, island and subterranean riv- er; high, frowning silurian walls, rugged, corrugated and sinuous, upon whose griz- gied countenances are chiseled an age so re- mote that one gazes in wonder and awe upon them. Beautiful valleys and cosy coves where forest, birds sing and wild flowers bloom in endless profusion. Bayard Taylcr has truly said in speaking of this wonderful spot: , _ have traveled all over the world to _ fim@ here in the heart of Missouri the most | amagnificent scenery human eye ever be- $* % 5 geological features are those common to the lower silurian age of Missouri. The — river, & clear, sparkling mountain 8 near which is located this spring, has its source southwest of Lebanon, and flows north, discharging its waters into the Osage river about five miles from the spring. Upon this tract is found a deep cavern or canyon. Down in this cavern ' @ distance of 50 feet is found the mouth of a@ large cave and a spring of water so cold that in the month of August it is 650 de- Srees, and as pure as the waters of the famed springs of Carlsbad. In frent and bearing to the left is an avenue © dln into the a of the cave in which are beautiful water formations— stalactites and stalagmites. To the right ‘is a gently flowing river, bounded by ver- tical and projecting walis, the arch over- head being a smooth, solid limestone of the cambrian or silurian age. Along this un- derground stream some of the caverns are 200 feet wide and 100 feet from the floor to the ceiling. Here are found the most beautiful water formations, columns, thrones, glittering scintillating forms, that look weird and ghastly in outline and fea- tures, yet so beautifully modeled, fluted and shaped as to rival in their wild architect- tural loveliness the touch and skill of the modern artist. Leaving this cave and going up a grad- ual ascent to the west, the traveler finds the scenery changed. Spread out hefore him, and about 100 feet below, is a beautiful park—COsage Park, the eastern entrance to which is spanned by a‘natural bridge, over 100 feet in length, 80 feet wide and 60 feet thick. The arch to the bridge is com- posed of massive: limestone, above which are heavy stratas of sandstone overlaid with soil. wheréon are growing trees. Passing under this bridge one comes within a vast amphith¢eate-, free from under- growth and densely shaded by the foliage of tall, handsome trees. This beautiful place has been appropriately named the “Coliseum.’’ Colossal walls of limestone as- cending in grace and beauty to the height of 200 feet, enclose this coliseum, which will easily accommodate 50,000 people, and so perfet are the acoustic conditicns that a good speaker can be heard by that number of persons. Bursting from the base of a gigantic _ wil! of silurtan rock is the famous spring— Ha-Ha-Tonka, the most magnificent spring in the valley of the Mississippi. The out- flow of water from this spring is 41,000,000 cubic feet every 24 hours, which water, ac- cording to the analysis of Prof. Cnauvenett, a celebrated St. Louls chemist, is abso- lutel free from crganie matter. This out- flow of water forms the largest lake in the State of Missouri, covering ™ acres filled to overflowing with the finest fish in the world. Within this lake is an island of about seven acres, on which are thou- sands of tons of onyx, and the two caves, the natural bridge, under which a buggy can be driven along a good road, the “whispering de,” which will seat 6000 or 6000 persons, every one of whom could hear a speaker standing in the entrance of the robber’s cave and delivering a lecture in a whisper. Among the stalagmites along the under- ground river one in particular is of es- pecial beauty and size. It is 36 feet in cit- tastical shapes, evincing the absolute 1.n- cumference at the base and over 25 feet approachable superiority of the architect high.

TS secret of the Standard Oil Co.’s ad m y ed unparalleled wealth—the means by which John D. Rockefeller built up the most gigantic corporation in the world—is revealed by Miss Ida M. Tarbell, author of “The Life of Lincoln.” It has been commonly reported that the Standard Oii Co, obtained its supremacy in the oil business by securing rebates from the railroads not obtainable by the general public, and that by this means it trade of the United States. throttled competition and monopolized the Many of the details of this arrangewent have been brought to light in the courts and made generally known by Hens7”D. Lloyd in his book, “Wealth Against Com- monwealth.” But it has been left to MiSs Tarbell to HY did the rafiroads lay the foun- dation otf John D. Rockefeller’s W wealth? Why did they discriminate against hun- dreds of their own customers for the ben- efit of the Standard Oil Co.? _ Why did they agree to build up a monop- oly which is today stronger than any or all of the railroads themselves? The long-delayed answer to these ques- tions ig to be found in Miss Tarbell's story of “The Rise of the Standard Oil Co.,’’ in the current number of McClure’s maga- zine. Being a native of the oil regions, Miss Tarbell has had a personal knowledge of the facts about which she writes, and for the past two years she has been gath- ering materials for the work. It appears that the first rebate obtained by the Standard Oil Co. was granted by the Lake Shore Railroad in 1868. ‘he agree- ment was that the Standard Oil Co. should pay the regular. freight rates, but that at the end of every month a certain propor- tion of the money was to be returned by show the nature of this agreement. the railroad. The ‘freight rate, for in- stance, from the of regions to Cleveland was 4 cents a barrel, and out of this ‘amount 15 cents was @uly paid back to Mr. Rockpfeller's company. es p «. In return for this extraordinary favor— and here comes the solution of the mystery —the Standard Oil Co. made two pledges. (1) That it would ship regularly © car- loads a day, and (2) that it would prevent the oll business from leaving Cleveland and locating ip the oil regions. Other railroads were cutting rates, spec- ulato were unsettling prices, large re- fineries were being bullt nearer the oil wells and the Cleveland refiners had become alarmed and were threatening to move to the ofl regions. At this crisis in the oll business John D. Rockefeller sprang to the front. He made the bargain which was as deadly as a Gat- ling gun to his competitors. He invented the new method of doing business, which was eventually to make him the richest man SS. P75 Cure ©. in the world. Miss Tarbell’s story is an intensely ira- matic one, It records the struggle of strong men for immense wealth. How the fight began, and how, like a flash of lightning at midday, the Standard Oil Co. established its supremacy—all this and more are told in Miss Tarbell’s narrative. By IDA M. TARBELL. OW had it happened that Rockefeller and his colleagues had secured this advantage so out of harmony with a railroad’s obligation to the public? No- @ moment when a lively contest was going on for the eastward oll and when the Pennsylvania rail- fing the advantage, was claiming Ger. Devereux called a “patent right on the transportation of oil.” The cheap rates which the Pennsylvania was giving, the wild speculations in both refined and crude, to which the officials of the Erie -Fisk and Gould—wcere lending ald, combined with the fact that a number of big finely equipped refineries were going up in the off regions, frightened the Cleveland refiners. Unless something was done, they told Gen. Deverecx, Cleveland would be destroyed as a refining center. Something was done—the Lake Shore ran its road still nearer to the heart of the oil regions and began to give Rockefeller, An- drews and Flagler rebates on their crude oil. Gen. Devereux’s reason for making spe- cial rates to this firth, and to no other, was that, while all the other refiners ex- pressed the fear that the advantages of refining on the creek close to the ol] supply were such that they might ultimately all have to move from Cleveland to the oil re- gions. Rockefellep’ and his associates promised to fight ft out in Cleveland if the Lake Shore would handle their oil as cheaply as the Pennsylvania could. Why the railroad should not have quieted the fears of the other firms by the same assurance as it gave the Standard, Gen. Devereux did not explain. body knew then. But 1€ years later the railroad man who granted them this priv- ilege, and started them on the road by which, a few years later, they reached almost a complete monopoly of the oil business, stated the reasons fcr the dis- crimination in an affidavit which has nev- Be Shida ek, Re eee ca a age eS: ; Two years later, in 1870, the Lake Shore made a broader contract with the Stand- ard.

Providential Interposition to Lessen the Coal Famine, or Whatever the Cause, Dr. Hyatt Says There Are 260 Degrees of Excess Temperature to Temper the Winter Winds. HE autumn of 1902 will go down into meteorological history as the warmest in 31 years. It has been so remarkable in St. Louis that it has caused Ed- win 8. Hoch, in writing in the National Magazine, to say that St. Louis certainly has the finest climate in the United States. _ November, especially, has been noticably warm. The highest temperature dur- ing the month was 79 on the 10th, and the lowest, up to the day before Thanksgiv- ing, was 38, and that was after the sun went down. reasons, scientific and-otherwise, have been given to account for this warm spell. One that seems to meet with general indorsement is that it is due to the interposition of Divine Providence to offset the coal famine. But the scientists have mo such e ‘y explanation. They tell of high and low barometers and plane- tery disturbances that puzzle the brain. The believers in Providence make no at- tempt to prove their theory, so the only arguments that ean be published are those of the scientists. By DR. B. J. HYATT, Local Forecast Official, United States Weather Bu- _ eau.

The known cause of this excess of tem- ie the great number of ‘‘lows’’ traveling about the country, and have beon traveling all the season. There are various reasons as to the cause : weather bureau does no deals only with known facts, probabilities, planetary conjunctions we sliould see some serious disturbances in these annual aver- ages. The cause of the Mont Pelee erup- tion seems to me to have been local. 4 That disturbance amounts to no more to the entire world ‘han the dumping of a bucket of ashes would to the waters of the entire Mississippi river. It would create a slight ripple where the bucket was dumped, but its power to disturb would be very mod- erate and quickly spent. The warm weather of the fall is caused by the same condition that gave us the cool weather of the summer. There was a pre- pomierance of low barometer conditions al! over the country east of the Rockies, and an accompanying rainfall. Rain in warm weather cools the atmosphere. Therefore the summer was cool. Rain in cool weather warms the atmosphere. Therefore the fall is warm. What caused an excess of low barometric condition no one knows but the Omrupresent, It may be that the New York man has the correct theory—I will not attempt to gaingay him. “There are also blizzard months. We find that there are certain planetary conditions in May. The North Pole of the earth is turned toward the sun. The gréatest inflow but visible in the Southern Pacific ocean. Thcse were the planitary conditions. What has occurred? We all know. Dead voleanoes Lave come to life; tidal oO fteprestrial magnetism the earth gets it waves have swept the oceans; cyclones receives in May. Cyclonic and seismic disturbances follow apparently as a result of this superabtundant charging of the earth’s storage battery. These disturbances become mgre pro- nounced, Now what mean the heavenly conditions? We are gradually drifting in- to a planetary grouping such as has not oc- curred for ages and will not recur for ages to come. Just before the Mont Pelee out- break, the most disastrous in known his- tory, the earth in its journey around the sun passed a Hine of worlds. This was (Lhelr order: Uranus, Saturr, Supiter, Mars, earth, Venus, Mereury, sun, Neptune. There have been five eclipses this year. A partial eclipse of the sun occurred April 8, visible omy in the Arctic circle. A _ total eclipse of the moon occurred April 22, in- visible in America, and a total eclipse of the sun May 7, also ‘nvisible in America, have swept the country; earthquakes have much abounded. The greatest rains in years have fallen and we may not be en- tirely done with electrical phenomena yet. But we are passing out, and the warm fall is but the aftermath, the resuit of the earth to rid herself of the overcharge, the enormous overcharge of her vital organs with terrestrial magnetism. Think of all of those planets in line, pouring into the earth an excess of electric fluid such as she has rot received at one time since astronomy was known, not even when Pompeii and Hereculaneen were buried. The wonder is that go little hap- pened as did happen, and is still happen- ing. The side of the earth on which the sun's eclipse was visible was the side that broke loose—the side that was cut off from the awful electrical flow of the sun. Over- charged, there was an outward flow that overbalanced the attraction of gravitation and the great upheaval! followed. The Mont Pelee upheaval came May §&, the day following the eclipse, The contin- ued disturbances are the efforts at read- jus:ments that have been and are being made. I foresaw that great results would fol- low the sun's eclipse, with the planets in the position they were, and I so wrote in Word and Works and in my almanac. For 146 years I have been telling abeut the crisis the world has been passing through for three years past. I believe that the universe is governed by fixed law, and that even these Mont Pelee outbreaks are necessities of effete- ness—a renewal of vitality that is provided for 'n the general plan of the universe of which our solar system is but a small part. Uniess there is something driving down on us from the unknown that will bring about the final cataclasm, there is no rea. son to fear another disturbance such as this we will be out of in a year or two, in the lives of those now on earth.

In some cases they are as low as %0 a year, while others pay as much as a year. The amount depends altoget on what kind of care the patient desires, or his rela- tives want him to have. But no matter how much or little the lunatic lodger pays he is sure to be the spoiled member of the family. The towns- people have no fear of killing by kind- ness, for the sole treatment of their pa- tients Hes in indulging them in it to the last degree. The lodger always has the big armchair that stands in the cosiest corner of the living room and from this he learns to appreciate the esteem in which he is held to such an extent that he will exert his best efforts to overcome his weakness, lest he may by some chance for- feit his cherished privileges. A visitor to the strange town will see al would give would ship asked was considerable lower regular open having a regular amount so great that the railroad cluded that their profit would be than by serving all alike. ' But Mr. Rockefeller did not bate system showed him how this could be accomplished. In 1871 Mr. Rockefeller bought tho charter of a defunct corporation—"The Scuthwest- ern Improvement Co.,” Operating under this name to quell suspicion he made a second bargain with the raliroad compa- nies—a more astcunding bargain than the first one, The Standard Oil Ce. was not only to re- ceive a rebate of about 4 per cent on its own freight, but the same amount on all the oil shipped by Its competitors. It was to have sccegs to ali books of the railroad. Copies of all way bills were to be sent to it every day. If an Independent re- finer shipped a barrel of oi! from Cleve- land to New York he was charged $2, and 50 cents of the money was paid to Mr. Rockefeller and his partners. This was the bargain that made compe- tition impossible and monopoly as certain as the grave. At ence the swallowing pro- cess began. There were at that time some 26 refineries in the town—some of them were feeling more or less ths discouraging effects of the last three or four years. of railroad dis- criminations in tavor of the Standard Oil Co. To the owners of these refineries Mr. Rockefeller now went one by one, and ex- plained the Southwestern Improvement Co. You see, he told them, this scheme is bound to work. It means an abeolute control by us ef the oll business. There is no chance for any one outside. But we are going to give everybody a chance to come in. You are tc turn over your re- finery to my appraisers, and I will give you Standard Oil] Co. stock or cash, ag you prefer, for the value we put upon it. I ad- vise you to take the stock. It will be for your good. Certain refiners objected. They did not want to sell. They did want to keep and manage their business. Mr. Rockefeller was regretful, but firm. It was useles to resist, he told the hesitating; they would certainly be crushed if they did not accept his offer, and he pointed out in detail, and with gen- tleness, how beneficial the scheme really was—preventing the Creek refiners from destroying Cleveland, keeping up the price of refined oll, destroying competition, and elfminating speculation. Under the combined threat and persua- sion of the Standard, armed with the South- western Improvement scheme, almost the entire independent ol] interest of Cleveland collapsed in three months’ time, Of the % refineries at least 71 sold out. From a ca- pacity of probably not over 1500 barrels of crude a day, the Standard Oj] Co. rose in three months’ time to one of 10,000 bar- rels. By this maneuver it became master of over cne-fifth of the refining capacity of the United States. Its next individual competitor was Sioan & Fleming of New Yorg, whose capacity was 17 barrels.

\RE AMERICA’S MOST ELABORATE DRESSERS Belles Wearing Ten Pounds of Beads and Twenty Feet of Buckskin Wrapping Hose. HAT very widespread feminine trait of holding dear to the heart the things that are pretty to wear finds its highest expression in the United States in a very curious place. It is not in New York, where the Four Hundred reigns, nor even among “white people at all; but down in the Territory of New Mexico, among the little Dlack-eyed Pueblo Indian women, who are interested in everything in the way of feminine wear save hats. The Pueblo women wear no hats. Otherwise, their - Wardrobes are fearfully and wonderfully made. > + Mrs. Mary Virden Shutt, 748A Euclid avenue, St. Louis, has recently re- ie _ turned from a trip to the Pneblo Indian country, and she has written this wom- _ en's story for the Sunday Post-Dispatch. The women of the Pueblo tribes are, perhaps, the most ambitious of Amer- _ Sean Indian women. They do not appear upon the many festival days except in & profusion of finery which Solomon in all his glory would have found it dif- ~ Gioult to eclipse. Considering that these women live in little mud houses, and that even the slightest education must be denied them for many years by the very exclusiveness of their tribal life, there is something pathetic in tnis love for fine clothes and the sacrifices they make to > ‘ebildren, and no child ever dressed her dolly more grotesquely than many a belle secure them. They are like | fea the Pueblos appears upon festival days in these quaintest of all American | a : By MARY VIRDEN SHUTT. HE Pueblo Indian woman is a study in human nature which incites one’s interest, amusement and compassion. Old age and silvery heir bring to the Pueblo woman no respect nor respite from Sof), for she must still continue to be @ beast of burden until she lays down §ife’s weary load. Z have seen olf women so frail and thin @hat they looked like a weathered plece of cget aie tee thc washing wheat and preparing ne for the grinding. I have seen them tearing burdens that looked heavy enough ‘#6 crush them, while a stalwart man walked by their side unincumbered. I do _ mot mean to say the men never carry bur- ' @ens. I have often seen them with heavy packed much the same as a burro. But if husband and wife were walking the same road and there was a burden to be borne the wife would be the one who would bear it. Once only have I seen a man carry 2 load while his wife walked by his side unladen, but they had been married only a short time, which indi- gated that even among this semi-civilized _ people the honeymoon sheds a few faint rays. The .Pueblo woman would not consider ther house properly furnished did it not ' gontain the flour mills, which consist of ' &£«.£xgeur shallow troughs or bins. In each one fe @ Jarge heavy stone with another elor- | gated one. The large stone rests in a slant- ing position against the sides of the bin - and the wheat is brought up with the hand, then by a quick upward and downward movement with the long stone, it is crushed. This process must be repeated Many times. Yet with all this very heavy labor, the Pueblo Indian girl during her maijidenhood ig often fair to look upon, though her skin may be bronzed. And her silvery laughter is like the carol of some wild bird, with- out a trace of the sorrows of life. A number of these girls have been sent, very reluctantly though, on the parents’ part, to various In@fan schools. They came ack full of enthusiasm for the new man- ner of living and anxious to enlighten their people, but the old patriarchs of ths tribe will not have their old customs and rites so ruthlessly torn away. The really pretty and tasty dresses and hats that the educated girl brovght with her when @he returned from schovul—and these little feminine things appeal as much ‘to her heart as to her American sister-- are hooted at and life is made so generally uncomfortable for ber that in her despera- tion she returns tc her native costume. I cannot forgo: one sad-faced Indian girl of the Pueblo of San Felipe who had at- - ' @ended Carlisle a yeat or two and had ’;) tapted enough of the tree of knowledge to Know that the fruit was sweet. She was Yery anxious to complete the course, but unfortunately she came home one vacation ~ and the effects of civilization and educa- ' ‘ton were apparent in such an alarming Gegree that parental authority interfered, ‘and she was not allowed to return. I - heard the story from the young Indian, falmself a graduate from Carlisle, who had - . een instrumental in obtaining her father's consent to her attending this school, and he seemed sorrowful and distressed that _ the good work had ended so hopelessly. Ym a few years, however, the patriarchs wf the tribe will be gathered unto their ' @athers. A new regime will be ushered tm The educated Indian will be at the for the ‘‘new”’’ Indian woman with a full quota of clubs, ideas, etc. Public whippings are common among the Pueblos; two years ago the Indian agent at Santa Fe advised the Pueblos to dis- continue this barbarous custom, but it is safe to say that it still continues. The Pueblo woman lives in an adobe or mud house. She does her cooking on a fire- place; the family eat upon the floor. One large earthen dish containing the princi- pal article prepared for the meal is in the center, and the members of the family seat themselves around it, partaking from the same dish with a piece of bread in lieu of a knife, fork or spoon. It is not, therefore, a hard task for the Pueblo wom- an to wash her dishes. Indian cornbread is This word is spelled phonetically. I am not versed :n Pueblo orthography; it is a very hard task. The bread looks like a hornets’ nest in general appearance and color, and is thin as a leaf of paper. It is folded in book form with the leaves un- cut. In making the bread the Indian wom- an first prepares a thin gruel and lets it cool; she then sits in front of her spacious fireplace, where she has a flat hot rock, so hot that one unaccustomed to it could not possibly bear their hand on it for an in- stant. The wonder to me is that any one's hands could become so calloused that they could ever endure the heat. Upon this rock she spreads the thin gruel with the palm of her hand, and, as it is of only the consistency of paper, it bakes immediate- ly. While it is warm she folds it over and over until she has a fair-sized volume. When it is cold it is very brittle. I have never tasted it, owing to a little fastid- jousness on my part, but I have been told that it is palatable and nutritious. The Indian woman's floor is of earth, and she considers it of superior quality and something to be proud of, especially if it has been prepared of mud of which the liquid ingredient was blood. This makes a very hard floor, but the odor of the room is something appalling. » J, | ae] | ae] >a >] flee >= o wee — clic priest rites; but the final “tying of the knot.” officiated with many ceremony was Roman the iF, on the fieor in a lighted candles.’ - fread of tribal affairs.

I drank to- day of the water of Anne Hathaway's spring. The distant horizon all around the circle, as i slance out, js clothed with that deli- caté.dzure hue that Jends enchantment to’ the view. The air is full of moisture, The whole island, lke “fan emerald /set in a silver sea,”’ is swathed in clouds, white and dark blu, that constantly rise like steam from ihe superheated waters of the gulf stream in summer, making the flowers and plants, trees and shrubs of England, although the same Jatitude as Labrador, like the foliage of a hothouse. Warwick- shire is as near the topographical center of England as its very irregular and in- dented coast line will permit. This whole country. is like a park kept by that fine After my pilgrimage through Charlecote and Welcombe, [I concluded that Shottery and Stratford are the most inviting. As I look out of the window I see thick masses of clouds scudding for the west. Doubtless, with eye ‘‘turned from earth to heaven,’’ our poet often noted similar clouds here on their way to be “buried in the bosom @f great ocean."’ The levels and plateau of land hereabout are broad, wide and peculiarly open to all “skyey influences.’’ The atmosphere from all points seems to me to be self-luminous spark- ling, and the infinitesimal atoms to move automatically and nimbly, with an invig- orating and uplifting effect. The flora and fauna and weather of the plays fit into this landscape exactly, and vice versa, as if described by a naturalist. The ruins of Kenilworth not too far away for an active and ambitious boy of 14 to get there on foot as I saw today; the proud Earl of Leicester; the haughty and jealous queen; the glorious beauty, Amy Robsart, rival to a queen—all these attractions must have fired the imagination of such a boy, as bright master William was at the time of the queen's visit. The allegorical scenes depicted in a ‘‘Mid- Summer Night's Dream” read like a literal description of the entertainment provided by the lord of the castle, and _ ~s0 vividly described also by Sir Wal ter Seott in Kenilworth. There is in the play distinct allusion to An imperial votress, A fair vestal throned in the West. a And all through the landscape winds the lovely Avon in early morn and eve like a sheet of silver, with willows showing white beneath by reflection in the smooth sur- face of the pool below. In such a country, at such a time, was the dramatist born; the right time and the right place, as I wrote in the visitor's book today. At the age of 7, and until 13, he attended the grammar school in the second floor of the chapel of the Guild Hall on the south- east corner of Chapel and High streets. How many miscellaneous books and ie- gends he devoured we do not know. I saw in the museum in the house in Henley street an ancient and capacious book and writing desk said to be his taken from this schoolroom. The pictorial panorama of the History ‘of the Holy Cross once illuminated the walls of the,school room and their scenes dounbtiess sunk deep into his receptive mind.

I stooped under, looked up and could see the sky; a settle is on one side and an inglebrook on the other, where one could sit close to the fame within the face of the fireplace Doubtless this healthy imaginative boy often did sit there and gaze into the curl- ing flames weaving strange fancies as his mother and sisters moved about in house- hold duties, the lad meanwhile having a gense of comfort, as being ‘‘at home.” A fire has not been made in it for centuries. From this room I passed into an L divid- ed into three rooms. I returned again to the kitchen. Adjoining is a room facing the street—private—now used as a record room. Adjoining the kitchen and facing the street are two rooms used for a museum of Shakspeare souvenirs, the sword car- ried before his father and his signet ring are here. There are seven rooms on the first floor. six rooms on the second, and three attic rooms, making sixteen in all. The number surprised me. There are no halis or porches. The stair case to the second floor ascends from the L room. There is a staircase leading into the attic. closed to visitors. The ceilings are low. I could easily touch them. The front room above the kitchen—19 by 14, as I measured it—is where the won- derful child first uttered his wailing cry . as he came into this breathing world. Visitors are permitted to sit in Shaks- peare’s low chair in this room. The walis are covered with penciled signatures, None are permitted now. It seems that all the great of the earth have been here to honor this lowly room. The panes of giass are small, are scratched all over with signatures made with diamond rings. I saw the signatures of W. Scott and T. Carlyle. A book is now provided where each vis- itor enters his name In Ink. Judging from the size and number of the books, a stream of visitors has flowed into this goal of Ilit- erati for many years. A shilling each one pays defrays the expense of custodians, four in number, and repairs; the house be- longs to the nation, who patriotically pur- chased it, and would not allow Barnum, the showman, to dismember it and carry 4 away. The oak frame work of the building, floors, joists, rafters, stanchions, are solid sound, discolored, dimension—oak hardened with great age, as the structure was‘ an- clent when John Shakspeare purchased it.

It is an honest house; no sham, and picturesque with its pointed gables, small window panes and many wood mullions and members. The shadowy forms of the Shakspeares haunt this house. What a splendid woman the mother of such a man must have been! What a physical frame, heart, brain and mind‘ Here the marvelous child was nur- tured! Here born. As I entered the city I saw a number of boys just let out of school, bright and glee- ful lads with rosy faces. I could imagine Master William was such a boy. One came up to me and offered to be my guide. “What do I think of Shakspeare?”’ ‘Hae was a very great poet, sir,’ was his reply. A bright Jad with blue eyes, white and pink skin. Imagination could easily picture Master William such a boy at that age. Out of school at 14, he helped his father in the different vocations, glover, wool comber and farmer. Exploring every nook and corner of this lovely land, going with the family to church on Sunday, he was not long in finding other heauties than tature in the countryside. lc saw Anne, and as Miranda and Ferd- ii nd did, “changed eyes,’ probably to t.uf very walk under the lime trees lead- ing to the church door, and accompanied her home. From that time his fate was sealed. The smoke that curled from her lowly thatched cottage thereafter was doubtless his beacon by day and the glint of the fire flashing through those diamond window panes was the light that lured him by night. He knew short cuts to Shottery from every point, and every rozd seemed to jead straight to that enchanted cottage.

LORING. pompano a TT, Man 25 a week. St. Louis is made up of Civic Leagues. Improvement League of St. Louis. HE Civic [Improvement League is not T quite one year old and yet its mem- . bership is 1200. Fifty names were added during the past two weeks. The fees are $2 a year. That keeps up the expenses. Headquarters are necessary and there is the cost of literature, correspond- ence and lectures. The League has already demonstrated the possibilities of St. Louis. It is not expected to make it a second Paris in a moment, but it is seen that very much can be done in a very few years toward its beautifica- tion and its sanitation. The wholesale cleaning of alleys and the much better cleaning of streets is due in part to the work of the League, which has received the strongest possible support from the mayor and the street commis- sioner. The King's Highway Commission, up of President George B. Leighton, President Julius Pitzman and John D. is, one of our most earnest members, after visiting leading cities and studying their boulevard systems, is having prepared for it by George Kessler, landscape architect of the World's Fair, who laid out the very comprehensive boulevard system of Kansas City, a system that will conform to the needs of St. Louls as it shall develop into a city of a million or more inhabitants. The work of the commission will be a reve- lation, it ts thought. The Civic Improvement League would not have been created in vain if it had accom- plished nothing save the introduction of playgrounds for the children of the tene- ment house districts. Three such play- grounds were opened last year, one near the Ashiey . puliding, at Ashley and Collins streets, another at Eighth and Rutger streets and a third at Tenth, between Carr and Biddle streets. Sand piles, swings and shower baths were provided, and the children’s playground committee in charge of public school play- grounds co-operated and furnished us watchers. The main thing was to teach the , They knew how to fight, made Vice- Dav- By EARLE LAYMAN, Secretary Civic | Offices have been It nas The recent wholesale clearing of alleys was a league suggestion.

And we find that the children look after these playgrounds as if they were their individual property. So they will be ready for next season with smal! outlay. The attendance last summer was about 3500. The average number of baths given daily was 3226. Children who bathed soon demanded thar they be given baths at home. Clean children are likely to breed clean homes and clean parents. With clean chil- dren, clean parents and clean homes we shall have a clean city.

Newcastle, loontes in County Down, about 25 miles south of Belfast, is a familiar spot to thousands of Irishmen who have taken up their resideace in the United States. It has a population of only 1000, but during the summer months it attracts a large number of visitors. It .s situated on the west coast of the Irish Sea, and is already one of the most fashionable resorts in the north of Ireland. Por many vears Newcastle was only a small fishing hamlet. Nestling on the shore of picturesue Dundrum Bay, ft attracted the attention of the Earl of Annesley, who determined to improve it and make it at- tractive to summer tourists. With this end in view he erected a fine modern hotel and has planned such other improvements as will make it a suitable seaside resort. Politically speaking, Newcastle i= in the parish of Kilco, barony of Upper Iveagh, county of Down, province of Ulster and three and one-half miles southwest of Cas- tlewellan.

On_the site of the old castle erected by Maginnis;~which was torn down some years ago, the new hotel has been built. It is a spacious and finely appointed hostelry and cost $15,000. It is well located and commands an extensive view of the bay, the Isle and Calf of Man in the foreground and the lofty mountains of Mourne ‘n the rear. The Earl of An- nesley has also built a fine marine resi- dence, called Donard Lodge at the foot of Slieve Donard. The demesne is laid out with great taste. Within its limits is a chalybeate spa, to which the public has free access. The other country seats tn the neighbor- hood are Tallymore, the residence of Mrs. Keowen; Brook Lodge, the home of Mr. W. Beer, and the residence of Mr. John Law, a2 handsome mansion of the Elizabethan period. ° The environs of Newcastle are of a pleas- ing character and abound in mountain scenery. Within two miles of the village is Tallymore Park, the handsome country seat of the Earl of Rodin. It is also but two miles to the village and church of Bryansford. The port has a fine pier that cost the government $160,000, and which is accessi- ble at high water to ships of heavy tonnage. Newcastle is also the head of the coast- guard district. The force comprises a resi- dent inspector, seven officers and 66 men. A penny post is in operation to Castle- wellan, the largest town in the vicinity. a -——— — AN UNUSUAL COLOR LINE POINT MUST BE DECIDED AT WASHINGTON WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 3. ®pecial Correspondence of the Sunday Post-Dispatch. BE government has a color question on its hands brought about by an aged white clerk in one of the de- partments who has married his negro housekeeper. The man is over @ years old and a widower. It appears that, without making known his newly wedded state, he bought a house in a pleasant neighborhood, paying an in- staliment of the purchase price in cash and giving a note secured by mortgage for the rest. The former owner of the property says that, when arranging to take the mortgage, the purchaser was described to him as a widower, but that, before the pa- pers were drawn, a report got abroad that he was married, so he was required to get his wife's signature and have her make the proper acknowledgment before a notary. . On their face, of course, the executed papers conveyed no hint of the wife's col- or: but a few days after the transfer of the property the neighborhood was in a state of excitement. The negress, it ecems, was a widow with several children of her own color, and these, as soon as the fam- ily took possession of its new home, ran It was not \atest arrivais, and was duly scandalized. : paenant householders declared that they 2 surrender their leases at expiration and owners began to talk real estate agents who were drawn several meetings to dis- of facing the crisis. threat which some one na a ‘k in person, of complain- public service, he Ce eae geen that “there As the question is likely to be brought before the department before long, a de- cision will have to be rendered, and it is hard to say what will be done. If a clerk's conduct, although violating no statute, de- fles local public sentiment in such a mat- ter as marriage, involving both the for- tunes of posterity and the general social order, his fellow clerks may refuse to as- sociate with him, and the government's work be put at a serious disadvantage thereby. And, while there is nothing in the civil service rules making miscegenation a cause for dismissal, neither is there any rule limiting dismissals which would inter- fere with the exercise of the discretion of the head of the department in such a case. The whole question is open for decision on its own merits. THE “QUEEREST LAWSUIT ERHAPS the most remarkable suit Pp ever brought is on the records of the court of exchequer in England. It was filed on Oct. 3, 17%, and it sets forth very clearly that John Everit and Joseph Williams were highway robers. In the succinct legal phrases the com- plaint says that the men formed apartner- ship for the purposes of carrying on busi- ness as highwaymen. It was mighty profit- able, as was shown by the fact that Everit sued Williams for the equivalent of $5000, “being for moneys wrongfuly appropriated to defendant's private purse.”’ This was the amount tn dispute after the partnership had lasted only a year. Then Everit claimed that he discovered that his partner had not made a fair division of the spoils. The action was adjudged to be a gross contempt of court, and the plaintiff was ordered to pay all costs, while the so- re- | licitors, who served the writ, were fined £50 each.

M ANY and extraordinary are the so- called systems in operation for the redemption of the female neck and throat. Very many women exhibit a tendency to embonpoint early in the twenties. Frequentiy the woman who discovers that she is getting fat calls a halt on the Situation and literaliy saves her neck, or the beauty of it, by her wisdom. Fat is absolutely controllable. The Woman who allows herself to get too stout is either ignorant or indolent, Every human creature who will honestly take’ the pains and exercise the required self-denial will find for herself that the acquisition and reduction of fat are gov- erned by diet and exercise. _ Some subjects are predisposed to accu- mulating fat. They assimilate food easily end perfectly. Such individuals usually begin to take on flesh around the twenty-fifth year. Now if you wish to preserve the youth- ful smoothness and firmness of your throats, you must not get fat. 4 really fat throat may be smooth and firm, bit tt never looks young, even though its possessor may be on the sunny side of 30, which in these days is young. The woman who has a fat throat in youth is doomed to pass her later ycars bemoaning a flabby under chin or a hideous set of claw-shaped furrows just under the chin, ? The woman who has allowed herself to get too stout in youth has endangered the beanty of her throat, but if she will 4ili- gently seek to ropair the damage done by stretching and weakening the muscles she may do so. Relaxed neck muscles can best be re- stored by massage. But be careful not to make the mistake of allowing an op- erator to give you neck movements, based I know not on what theory or delusion, that. will only increass your present af- fliction. All neck movements for restoring the contour of the face and making the throat symmetrical should be made with a view to raising the muscles, making them firm and taut as in youth. In medical massage, where neck treat- ment is given for congestion of the brain or for laryngitis, downward movements are correct. But these movements for cosmetic purposes are absolutely ha>mful. Recollect that to restore the beauty of throat and neck you must restore the muscles to vigor, elasticity and strength. The specific effect of mansage the muscles is: : To encourage nutrition and development of the muscles by increasing the blood supply, ex A_ well-nourished firm and elastic. An impoverished muacie is limp, flabby and lax. If the muscular structure is vigorous and healthy the fatiy tissues are well sup- ported, the skin is smoothly stretched and there are no furrows, no crows’ feet, no flabby double chins. Massage will do wonders for the restora- tion of the throat, but don't expect to see results in one or two or half a dozen treatments. The muscles have to be made well and strong by friction, which supplies the blood from which they get their nourish- ment. It is a slow but sure process. Massage movements for the neck are sim- pile. the subject for the first. and most impor- tant movement. Place the hands as in the picture, under the chin, and pressing firmly into the tissues, make an upward rotary movement. Work up to the back of the ears. Look in the glass while this move- ment is being performed, and you will see that the flabby throat disappears, with the muscles lifted. ee Neck-wringing is useful, but should be carefully performed. Only a skilled anat- omist should be trusted with this, or, for that matter, any movement. Real injury may te done by untrained hands in any of. the vigorous movements. As the term implies, wringing is a twisting movement, ex@cuted by both the operatcr’s hands. The movement should not be quick, and just enough preesure of the hands should be employed to prevent their slipping over the swrface, Percussion is useful in neck massage also. The percussion movement should always be what is known as an elastic movement, and given from the wrist joint. muscle becomes full, - - . we Hix, « - 2 Bow ooh te y , F 3 an i 4 4 ee a i na a Se i : P > 2 " ie * r os . : ‘ Sher he ¢ Age * ae » a = A oe ib Ln: ; — aa. a .

An inexperienced operator gives a sort of pummeling movement which bruises the superficial tissues and has no effect on the deeper atructures. The effect of this movement is to excite not only the skin, but the tissues under- neath, and to give activity to the muscles through stimulation. Many letters have been received asking about a surgical operation for lifting the cheek muscles, and by so doing sestoring the youthful contour of the face. This operation has been done with some degree of success. It is not dangerous, per- formed by a skillful surgeon.

I consider the plaster stick depilatory better than any other, inasmuch as it does not contain any poisonous ingredients.
