See the cop—the fiy cop On his wheel, on the fiy! There's a gun in his pocket, There's gore in hie eye: Unless, in his hurry, The cop takes a header. Chief’ of Police Kiely has ordered a num- ber of bicycles for the use of members of the detective staff who have police business late at night, when cars run only occasion- ally. With the Sherlock Holmeses of the force mounted on wheels and whizzing and hurt- ling through nocturnal space, wise crooks | may be counted upon to become straight or make their get-away from St. Louis forth- with. Such offenders as we have always with us—short-coal men, for instance—no longer will welcome the darkness as a shield and shelter from detection. Detectives who detect by night as by day will be abroad at all hours, and “‘They’re After You"’ will become an oft-sung, though hardly popular, ballad. “Just imagine,’”’ suggests a Four Courts attache, “big Jack Gallagher, now detailed specially to run down shoft-coal men, astride a bicycle, chasing a black coal wagon up a black alley in the midnight blackneas. “ “Let 'er go, Gallagher!’ the foot police- man on the beat will yell by way of encour- agement; then hg will ring for an ambu- lanee, with a especial request for a good bone doctor. : Where Is the Wheel That Will Hold Him? “J really don't believe,”’ says this critic, “that Jack Gallagher can ride a wheel. He’s the biggest Sherlock on the force, by pounds, and where is the wheel that will hold him up on stone block pavements at night?’ . Let ‘er a9, Gallagher! Hustle, don’t wait! Put on the 6team, Jack; Peda] your freight. Pull for the shore, Jack; Go for the goal, Though your breath maybe Short as the coal. ‘But then there’s George Williams,’’ con- tinues the critic. “George is the smalicst detective in the United States, and Galia- gher might use him as proxy when 4 coai can ride a boys’ size wheel. Williams can ride a boys’ size wheel, if necessary, and if the coal man should attempt io! escape by taking refuge in a yard, Wil- l.ams can ride through a crack in the fence and overhaul him e's quite big enough to do the rest. ; ‘“"‘lom McGrath would cut a fine figure on a bicycle. He has an imposing presence, and this would be augmented by his ap- pearance on a wheel, with drop handlebars and raised saddle, racer style. I'd love to see McGrath chasing a confidence man that way.” * is Make room—clear the path! .

The Court of Appeals today handed down a decision defining the duties of a motor- man under the so-called Vigilant Watch ordinance. : The case was that of George E. Gebhardt, who recently obtained a verdict against the St. Louts Transit Co. for damages in being run over by a@ car. The judgment was given in Judge Hough's court, but the Court of Appeale reversed the decision and remanded the. cause for a new trial. The particular point dwelt upon by the Court of Appeals is what care a motor- man is compelled to exercise. ; The Court of Appeals declares it is im- possible for the c@urt to define juet how much strength the motorman must use. He is required, the court says, to use or- dinary but not extraordinary care, The care that an intelligent, ordinary, capabie and able-bodied man would aa reine 4 use is all that is required of a mo- orman. e Yale Glee Club Coming.

Stone’s opposition to the equalization of taxes before the Board o1 Hqualization was in the interest of the street railways of St. Louls. He acted as the agent of the combines and hig work before the beard was opposed to the interest of the people. In the service of tax dodging franchised corporations, he helped to add to the burden resting upon the farmers, mer- chants, manufacturore and small property owners of the state. If he does such things itn Jefferson City, what will he do in Washington? Will hé be the servant of the people?

The recent critiofem of the World’s Fair in the columns of the of notice if it were not misleading to these who do not know any of the facts. The finances of the Fair, are in the most sat‘sfactory condi- tion. The ‘‘facts’’ out of which the censures on this score are manufactured are purely imaginary. The charge that the management is local with no e'ement of national representation proceeds from ignorance. Of course, the majority of the directors are St. Louisans, as they should be, just as in Chicagu they were Chicagoans. But the heads of departments are, most of them, from other states, appsinted for their special skill and experience. The St. Louis mem among the executives are {n a small minority. Secretary Stevens’ statement and Pregident Francis’ explicit denial shwuld satisfy the pubiic and put the anomymous critics to shame. * Criticism which is suegestive is helpful to any public enter- prise. But mere carping or snarling is unworthy, and censors who fear to come cut in the open, who hide behind the anony- mous, surely are not entitled to respect. a Lr — The Christmas of 1902 may be made the happlest the poor of St. Lovis have ever known.

There is hope} that Congress will act this winter on the consti- tutional amendment changing inauguration day from March 4 to a date later in the spring. In 1901 a natienal committee was appointed to formulate a plan to this end. On this committee are the governers of the forty- five states, and of ail the territories, besides fifteen citizens of tne District of Columbia. Ail the members ef this grand committee are supposed to favor a change, the only difference among them being the day to be chesen, The last Monday in April seems to be preferred.

A day of the week fs named because such an arrangement will save the embarrassment now sometimes felt when the day of the month fals on Sunday. It is sometimcs siild that to pass a constitutional amendment is next to impossib'e. But In this case there will be no trouble if Congress can be persuaded to refer [t to the states. All inter- ests agree to its expediency, and there is no opposition, According to Mr. Gompérs, ‘manufacturing concerns in this country have to send to Germany and other European countries tices learn only an infinitesimal part of a trade.

In fact, there ace tndieations that the whole evuntry wil Se0n beewme aroused. All interest in the identity of the mysterieus individual whe assarited Billy Patterson on a histeric oc- casion whi bs hest when the nation becemes absorbed fm the question of the joke that reused Mrs. Aberan.by after seven days of unexplained and centtnucus slumber. After sleeping for a whole woek—think of that, yo lazy enes!—while anxious watch- ers in the room wordered in vain what the end of her strangs state weuld be, she sud- denily burst inte a fit of lawghter when her husvend get eff seme rich met, and then quite as sudd@enty relapsed into her former somnoient conditien. What was the jeke that tickled Ms. Ab- ernathy? Why was it not preserved by some metber ef the family? Why was it met repented te her when afl other réstora- tives fafied, er why was net some newer and merrier jest brought into requisition for the piryece ef bringing her back to a state ef cenrciousness and laughter? These are questiens which we cannot af- ford te pass over fightly, Upen the anewer to them mcy depend to a large degree the futage history ef the human race. It may ehange entircly present methods of treat- ing catalepsy and similar affections. The joke may come to be the thing with which they that sleep may be wakened. The jeker may yet take the place of the doc- ter. There is no telling what revelations in this line may vet. be mnde. Medical men shold examines tnto this matter, and their first meve, perforce, must be to fathom this mystery. What was the joke that tickled Mrs. Ab- ernathy? At a banquet in Washington Congressman Bartholdt of Missouri said: “I claim that England is not the mother of this country, but that Germany, the fa‘hertand. is the mother.’’ Still, a man is liable to get even his sexes, as well as his metaphors, mixed when he tarries at the festive board for any great length of time. The secret of success in pleasing the pub- lic, in whatever line, is the ability to sing not a little tenor and a little baritone, but a little bass. Financial headline ‘Demand is heavy for time Icans.” always brings about that condition of things. “ Says: The bars, the cars and the theayical stars get most of the money.

It may be an evening wedding if desired, but in fashionable society the preferred hour is high aeon. Any hour between noon and 4 o’cloeck is appropriate for a wedding in the daytime. Morning weddings are also quite frequent. Invitations to a wedding must not be sent out later than two weeks before the @date which they announce. They are is- sued in the name of the bride’s father and mother. If she is an orphan, the name of dressed. Wedding invitations are always sent bY post. This is the usual form: MR. AND MRS. HENRY PARKER request the lonot of your presence at the marriage of theif daughter KATHLEEN ' ; to MR. JOSEPH HASTINGS BRENT on Thursday afternoon, December the 10th, at four o'clock, St. Peter’s Church, Lindell boulevard, St. Louis. her nearest surviving relative appears upon the cards. The correct wedding invitation is en- graved on sheets of fine white or cream paper having a smooth and unglazed sur- face. The size is about seven and and a half inches long by six and a fourth inches wide. Plain script is the most elegant lettering.- The invitations are folded once and fitted into envelopes which match the paper in quality and tint. These are inclosed in larger envelopes, each carefully- ad- The same form is proper for home wed- dings, substituting “the pleasure of your company” for “the honor of your pres- ence.”” When a reception or breakfast follows the church ceremony a card of medium size is inclosed with the regular wedding invi- tations, and on this is engraved the words: } , | Reception from balf-past four o’clock, Christmas time} BZ 039999 5909909994999 > A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY. 4 'T were better not to breathe or ¢ 670 Vandeventer avenue.

Nobody who is only a pleas- ant acquaintance should fee! hurt or slight~ .ed by the omission of his or her name from the necessarily limited list. It is considered bad form nowadays to send one general invitation to an enttre family. Instead of addressing “Mr, and Mrs. Brown and family” social etiquette requires that each adult member of the family shall reéeive a separate card. The family of the bride ys all ex- penses connected with her weflding. Until after the marriage the bridegroom is not expected to do more than pay for the H- cense, fee the clergyman, and provide the carriage in which he and his best man drive to the church or house, and the one in which he and his de priye away from it. The bride enjoy#*titprivilege of deciding ~ where and how she shall be married, to- gether with all other matters pertaihing to . this happy event in her life.

John Henry Wobring, wno came to SBt. “Louis a barefoot boy and lived to be the patriarch of a village bearing his name. and one of the foremost citizens of Caron- delet, died Sunday from heart disease at his home in Robringville, St. Louis County. He was 60 years old, and the father cf 18 children. In mere than a half century of active life he made and lost several for- tures, Life in St. Louis was to him a stage on which he enacted many roles, always hon- orably. A gardener in old Carondelet, a market man in old Central Market, now covered by Cuppies Station, a government contractor, manager of the Carondelet flour mill, president of the Southern Central and Savings Rank of Carondelet, host of a way- side inn, his life was replete with change. He has lived on the same premises since he came to St. Louls. First he worked there as the shoeless gardener’s boy, and later he lived on the same spot in a fine house, the president of a prosperous bank. Fourteen of his children died there, two in violent ‘"nanner. } POSTMASTER 22 YEARS. Since 1880 Mr. Pcbring had been postmas- ter of the village of Bobringville, whica had grown up around his home, and is destined to be one of the prettiest suburhs of St. Louis. When he came to the place 52 years ago the surrounding country was wild, land was cheap, and the ground held riches for’ willing hands to dig up. This was May 4, 1854. The boy, ir company with his par- ents. had left their home in Hanover prov- ince, Germany, on March 15. The voyage was stormy, and their ship, the Baltimore, had rocked fearfully many days in the dreary expanse of ocean. The forms.

On reaching manhood he married Caro- line Louisa Plumhoff, a maiden who had come from the same localJity in the father- land as he had. Their marriage occurred Oct. 13, 1865. The _ .rdener faced the actual- ities of life and extended his business. He established a stand in the Central Market in St. Louls and made friends and money. Children came to his homey, Death came also, and his sons and daughters passed away in their infancy. In 1870 Mr. Bobring established a business in Union Market and accumulated money sufficient to start on a larger enterprise. Hie became a wholesale contractor, and sold supplies to the government for use at Jef- ferson Barracks. This was a profitable trade. Friends came to him for assistance. He put his name on paper for friendship’s sake and lost much money. A mining invest- ment proved a mirage. But the man was undaunted. He worked harder and tried cther investments. He en- larged his store and tavern. The farmers traveling to and fro over the Lemay Ferry road were his friends, and traded with him. He entered the milling business, and be- came a partner in the Carondelet flour mill. HIS TOWN A SHOOTERS’ RESORT. In 188) he was appointed postmaster of the postoftice of Bobringville.

FIVE HUNDRED CARPENTERS, PAINTERS AND PLASTERERS AFFECTED. WORK WILL CEASE TONIGHT Trouble Over Small Amount of Non- Union Brick Causes General War Between Employers and Members of Unions. At 6 o’clock this evening all building op- erations in Belleville will cease, not to be resumed for an indefinite time. The Builders’ Exchange, of which all the building contractors are members, has_an- nounced that it will discharge all its em- ployes at that hour. ' This action is due to a dispute between the hodcarriers and the contractors, and is intended to bring the hodcarriers to terms. A few weeks ago, the hodcarriers on one building refused to carry a few hundred fancy brick from the Ittner brickyard, which is non-union. They went on strike and have been out ever since. The union bricklayers, it is stated, were willing to lay the Ittner: bricks, as the specifications for the Reuterman residence on West Third street, the scene of the strike, called for but a few of the make. Three or four years ago there was & strike at the Ittner brickyard, and it has been a non-union yard since then. HODCARRIERS LOCKED OUT. Two weeks ago, after these hodcarriers struck, the Builders’ Exchange locked out all the hodcarriers. Most of them went to East St. Louis and other towns and found ew jobs. The Builders’ Exchange was organized months ago, all the Belle- about three ville contractors —_— it. The lock-out will include all the carpen- ters, painters, plasterers, bricklayers and other building workers, who have nothing to do with the hodcarriers’ dispute. It is estimated that 500 men will thrown out of work, many buildings being in the course of construction. The contractors, it is said, believe that this action will result in causing the other labor unions to require the hodcarriers to carry the brick from Ittner’s yard. Owing, however, to the fact that nearly all the hodcarriers have left town, a long fight is believed to be in prospect. " Old Art Revived. One of the most beautiful of medieval arts, that of working on leather, is now being revived in Venice. During the sixteenth and seventeenth cen- curies Venice was famous for her artistic leather fa»ries, all of which were made by hand, and wy profitable was the trade which her merchants with the Orlent and European countries, es ly in. The leather work manufactured then was mainl used to cover walls and furniture and the speci- mens of it which are extant show that it was not only artistic, but also remarkably durable. Unfortunately, brocades came jnto fashion toward the close of the seventeenth century, and soon afterwards leather werk ceased to be manufactured in Venice. The art, however, has now been revived and thongh as yet only one factory is at work, a few ercellent specimens have been uced. Tee material veed is « ~~. prepared sheep- skin, and the method of Work similar to employed during the Middle Ages. The i are first cut in wocd and are then pressed into the leather.

Other bowling records were undisturbed, except the high game mark for the Central League this season, which Habenict set at TUTHS, THE MISSING. Our good friend, Machael Angelo Tuths of the ‘mitt’ is reported among the miss- ing. ‘We do not wish to imply that the @entieman is a “dead one,’ in the vernac- off for some time.

Before Geparting he let fall a few expla- nations.

He stated that he knew he hadi/no chance with McPadden, and that he wept into the his mentor, fing discouraged on the occasion of their “mecting. Consider what Michacl must have felt when he ceme out of it, and his (iisappear- ence 4s partly accounted for. When it 's added that for the future his Mmararer, Mr. McKenna, had reserved him On his setaff for such base uses as the re- »™ovai of profane or rude persons from the “Mekenna Temple af Bacchus or the per- formance of such willing slave duties as the Mopping of the floor of the same with per- sons hostile to the peace of the establish- ment, his takife to the woods is both under- * We strongly ‘ptooad fash freedom or spend it recklessly and excused.

If Michael does return, while we may ac- eept his explanation that he is a fighter, recommend the profession of “bouncer’’ as more to his talents. It may lack the glamor of fighting under the arc fights, but it more surely insures less pub- ‘Vicity. Michael was born an unknown and cught to remain one.

The latter stated today that he knew of no better place, and that unless something happens to cause ga change the Louisiana town will be the spring camp of the Browres Last season the West Baden trip did the players scarcely any good. The tempera- ture was so cold most of the time that the men were unable to do more than warm up. Charley Noland and Edward Mack will open their championship three-cushion Dbil- dard tournement at the Hauser Hall to- morrow night. The contest will be at 150 ints, to be played in blocks of § points, eginning tomorrow night. Benny Yanger won in six rounds at Chi- cago last night-from Crocky. Boyle, the Philadelphia lad who worried Young Cor- bett in a fight some weeks ago Yanger had all the better of the éontett and only round of the engagement enabled the Phil- adeiphian te stay out the limit. Boyle landed but one effective blow during the fight. The report reads differently from that of the Young Corbett-Boyle fight. On that occasion, Corbett’s showing was very disparagingly referred to. In the same ring last night at Martin Duffy of Chicago defeated Wallace of Philadelphia after six rounds. Chicago Tom hard Charley Mcixeever and Philadelphia Jack O’Brien had another of their periodical got- tos before the Penn Art Club last night. O’Brien, as usual, having the better of the fray. McKeever was the ageressor, not- withstanding, and made qa somewhat better showing than in his former attempts to do the coming champion. McKeever was floored for seven seconds during the third round. The incipient attempt of the Olympia Club of Spriagfield. Il, to start boxing in that city was nipped in the bud yesterday when Mayor Phillips issued an order to his police to see that the 20-round boxing bout scheduled to take place in the club rooms next Thursday be stopped.

Mr. Hedges returned to St. Louis yester- day, and found time to express himself on the subject. | “I favor games between the local clubs at the open:ng and close of the season both,’’ he said, ‘“‘and I think the peace con- ference will pave the way to paying them. ‘Y presume Mr. Robisen will consent to them now, tion again the conterence is con- cluded, I think everybody in. the city woud like .o see the clubs play together and I am willing now, as I was last sea- son did when While Mr. Hedges quoted on the subject, has some doubts of there being two clubs here next year. Mr. Hedges would like io acguire the’ National League property here, but would probabiy not get it at the figure he desires. There is a possibility that the January meeting may resuit in the estab- lishment of a 12-club circuit, but Mr. of not care to be it is plain that he | Hedges would not ta.k on that point. Hedges is confident that one result the peace oonference will be an standing as to salaries and another to re- spect contracts. “The players themselves admit that they are getting more money than they earn, said he. “It would be very fool sh for the two leagues not to reach an agreement on this point as well as on the contract mat-+ ter. Secretary Hedges announces that his headquarters will be at 508 Security build- ing for some time. Uniess Jesse Burkett is anxious to. play somewhere at a lower Sala! yY, or decides to retire from the game, he will be seen in left field for the Browns next year, ag . formerly Stories of Burkett’s being left out in the cold by the peacefest are killed by Mr. Hedges, who states that Burkett has $2000 advance money from the Browns and a contract calling for a certain figure which he is at liberty to sign at any time. As the figure named is better, tn ‘the, opinion of Mr. Hedges, than any that will be of- fered in view of the peace negotiation. it is considered certain that Burkett will be in his usual place next. season, NORTHWESTERN'S NEW COACH McCornack of Dartmouth Has Been Signed for a Term of Three Years.

WORK WAS EVEN. work of the 1904s was the most even that has been witnessed this season. The team was reasonably fortunate in getting breaks, and the men got their pins at the right times. Tonight the Crescents and the Acmes will meet. Were the match to be played on the Acme alleys, something might be an- ticipated) in the record line. The Royai alleys, however, are many pins slower than the Acme, and if any records are made they will have been more than The and I think make the proposi- |! under | earned.
