ROADS OPEN JOINT BUREAU J. w. STEELE HAS CHARGE OF THE IMMIGRATION. Uuion Station Passenger Agents Play Important Part in Immigration, Which Is Expected to Reach 100,000 Mark in 1908. Concerted efforts now being made by the railways centering at St. Louis to populate the great Southwest and develop the rich resources of that section have given a tremendous impetus to passenger traffic, and as a direct result the roads are en- joying a record-breaking volume of busi- ness. This colonisation movement, which was at firet termed purely an experiment, is now an accomplished success. There is no doubt in the minds of the railroad men that the movement will prog- ress as its purposes become better known, and that within a year thousands of fam- ilies from the Bast and middle West states will be located on the productive soil of a country whose na glories have hith- to been thelr own only advertisement. The railroads directly interested have decided to open an office in St. Louis. at which the various lines will be represented by one man. so far as the distribution of ture ané the conveying of necessary), , Is concerned, W.

Still, the companies do not consider their profits from this source. In fact, the tremely low rate made does not assure big profits. The problem of additional cars, ditiona! men and additional service, they av, must be taken into cons derat on. The real doom comes from the settlement of the n lands and the qetural prosrer'tvy which follows them. It is the heavy freight hauls that count in railroad earn nge. St. uis. as principal gateway to the Southwest, will receive, so the railroad officia's figure, 9 per cent of the traffic frcm the ast and middie West on col- onizat'on business, with the f ception of those points directly north of here. The duty of caring for these travelers, and it is no smal! duty. is intrusted to the passenger representatives stationed during: the hours of incoming and outgoing trains: at Union Sts tion. These men are required to be on duty early and late. If a tran ts four hours be- hind time, or one scheduled, for example, to arrive at 6 in the evening does not arrive until a corresponding morning hour, the sassenger agent must pass the weary hours waiting—unless assured that his ser- vices will not be needed. Usually there are a hundred requests made upon him during the course of a single day. MUST RECEIVE VISITORS: In the first place, he receives daily from headquarters numerous orders requiring keen intelligence and unfailing prompt- ness. An hour later he may be burdened with a message reading something like this: “Prince of Siam arrives on Royal Blue epee cial at 6 a. m. See him.“ hat’s all that is necessary.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.— The senatorial ust wihich controls the legigiation of he American Congress is the reai opposi- tion to the sta.ehood bills, said Delegate Marcus Smith of Arizona this morning: “It is suggested that the cap.tal of the combined state be located in New Mexico. Should this be done there would be peopie living in the sta.e of Arizona further away from the proposed state capital than New York is from Chicago. “The added expense of transportation alone under such conditions would be greater for Arizona than the entire cost of territorial administration. The limi ations forced by such a combination would make state government inefficient. “As to the senatorial trust I would say that there are a few senators in Congress who run the whole legislative show. The’ central authority of this trust is in New England. [That is why the oposition to the state hood bills * comes direct from New Englan In reality New En land senators only represent the trust, which has a few repre- resentatives in Sey eastern states. “If six United States senators should come in from three new states the power of this trust would be broken.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 3.—Under instruc- tions from Gov. Longino, Judge Robert Powell of the Seventh Judicial district of Mississippi will go at once to Amite, Lin- coln and Franklin counties and hold court to suppress the lawlessness that has start- ed there against the negroes. District At- tornev Greaves wil] accompany him. It is said that the terror among the negroes is being stimulated by small par- ties of armed men from the neighboring counties, who ride through the district, firing thcir weapons, with tne evident pur- nese of running off the negroes. Labor ents are utilizing this to secure negr te or for planters in eastern Mississippi. The heavy purchase of arms in the troubled counties has caused uneasiness, and«has given the whitecappers a chance. to say that the negroes are arming against the whites and threatening an —ͤ— — It is estimated that 200 negroes have beeen run out of Lincoln county in the last few days, as many out of Franklin, and a much larger number out of Amite.

This build- : come to make not only a new home, but better fortune for themselves and children. These observations are most pointedly and practically pertinent to the growth of urban communities in Oklahoma. Since last August four new towns have been made there within a distance of not a hundred miles. Prior to that time there was scarcely a village of 4 dozen persons to be found along the route. The reason why is easily explained. The building of the Blackwell, Enid & ‘Southwestern from Blackwell, Okla., to Vernon, Tex., and the Oklahoma & Western from Oklghoma City to Quanah, Tex., both divisions of the Frisco System, opened up a broad and fertile section that had hitherto been sparsely settled by ranchmen and a few farmers. There were many excellent locations along these routes for thriving towns and the most advantageous were chosen by the founders. These new towns each now number from 800 to 2000 population, and every day newcom- ers arrive. The first of the young and vigor- Otis municipal quartet was Thomas in Custer County. This town was promoted by the Oklahoma Rail- way Townsite Co., which is com- posed of 2 number of the leading |; citizens of Trenton, Mo. They pur- chased 580 acres of land and offered 2000 lots for sale at the low price of $20 per lot. The company retained every other lot. The purchasers of $20 lots drew for location, and it was a novel lottery. Two nail kegs, one containing the lot number, the other the names of purchasers, were placed on pivots, and as the kegs were whirled around the numbers were drawn. One man cleared $1000 be- fore the close of the day by buying and selling lots. The Farmers and Merchants’ Bank of Thomas paid $1250 for a corner lot. The next 1 * Dre n - | : : 1 | a il hotels, a long-distance telephone system, a big city hall, with other accessories and accompaniments of civilization. A city government will soon be at work there. Uncle Sam’s mails are delivered in it with as much seemed to possess extrao regularity as in any other part of the West. Another name will be added to the country’s gazetteers. In the politics and social economy of Ok- lahoma, territory and state, hence- forward Eagle City will have to be reckoned with.” The town of Snyder, like Oklaho- ma, was a lightning creation which at a certain noontime was born in a“ day. Snyder covers an entire section 640 acres of land. The sale of lots took place on Dec. 5, and on the next morning 1200 people awoke to claim it as their future home. They were gratified almost beyond ex- pression to hear newsboys crying “The Snyder Daily Star” on the streets, but there it was with all the incidents of the opening and other news. The lots in Snyder were sold at auction and fetched from $250 to $1250 a lot. So far lots aggregating $120,000 have been deeded. Snyder bids fair to outstrip all of its three young sisters from the advanta- geous fact that it is situated at the junction of the Blackwell, Enid & Southwestern and Oklahoma City & Ree divisions off the Frisco Sys- tem. The country contiguous to all of these new towns is of a deep black loamy soil, very productive of corn, wheat, cotton and all the fruits that abound in the temperate climate of the Southwest. ' === Indian Territory | More people now have their eyes turned expectantly toward the In- dian Territory, in anticipation of a settlement within its boundaries, than to any other part of the world.

F L Within the year just past, thou- sands of persons have taken advan- tage of favorable opportunities af- forded by the railroads entering the territory to inspect the country. I have encountered these prospect- ors” everywhere. Few, indeed, are disappointed with what they see. In a country where no man is so poor but he may, if he wishes own some land, many are disinclined to settle upon ground they do not hold a title. However, unless one is swayed chiefly by sentimental con- siderations, such objections must : ing classes are therefore the great- est wealth producers in the world.

Owing to the fact that the lands of the small tribes that occupy the Quapah Agency, in the northeast part of the territory, have been allot- ted for over 10 years under almost jexactly similar provisions as will obtain in the Five Nations, we may observe how the system operates n. when put into practice.

Monarchs, Says T. P. O'Connor. a TALKS IN SIX LANGUAGES “TO THINK OF HIS DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES IS BEWILDERING.”’ He Goes to Bed Late, Rises Early, Often Before Daylight, and Works Harder Than Any of His Subjects. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, Jan. 3.--T. P. O'Connor, M. P., noted Lrish journalist, who represents the English constituency of Liverpool! in Par- liament, has written for his penny week- ly. “Mainly About People,“ an interesting article entitled ‘The Inner Life of the Kal- ser. 8 He declares that, while there may be more attractive figures on the other thrones of Europe-—-for instance, the Emperor of Russia and the King of England—there is none so picturesque as that of the Em- peror of Germany, rait of the Emperor of writes, it recalls the Rosebery with regard to Mr. Gladstone and his then propesed biography, ‘He is one cf the men who suggests a syndicate of ‘bi- ographers, instead of a single writer.’ “To think of the different activities and gifts of the man is almost bewildering and benumbing. Sometimes, indeed, there is such a multitudinous variety in his acts as to make one think there is justice in the reproach that, with all his gréat pow- ers, the Emperor is devoid of one—namely the power of repose—a very useful talent, especially in a monarch, be it said, in passing. : Let us sum up in one aregraph of his gifts and his activities. The sum- mary does not cover everything, but still it is sufficiently near the truth to give something like a true picture. TALES IN SIX LANGUAGES. He can talk fluently in six languages, and, if he has any one language more at his finger tips than his own, it is ours.

He is not one of the men who think the best way to preserve health is to stick as long as possible in bed and the indulgence gf breakfast amid the sheets ig one which he never ee. “He has his cold bath, English fashion; has put on he first yniform of the day and has had even a little go at the dumb- bells before he sits down to his meal and then it is to an English breakfast, both in its quality and its quantity. In other respects, also, the Kaiser is like the Emperor Napoleon; he is not in- clined to remain too long over his meals. “He is not as ascetic; —— a good moderate and has a horror of -tting too stout, but it might be better for his health if his table were not conducted is, indeed, al- s activities as a in such a spirit of military expedcitious- ness.

The Huffman farm is located at Greenville, III., and Arnold & Co. paid $20,000 cash for it. | The farm is located two miles west of Greenville, which is just 51 | tiles from St. Louis on the Van- } dalia road. It is an ideal location for : ‘ ’ N : a breeding farm, as the country is rolling and the soil is the richest to | be found i in Illinois. The farm con- sists of 200 acres, all under cultiva- uon, completely fenced and of mod- ‘ | too shipped well, : 1 1 . N * - * a * * ’ r ern improvement. The Huffman home, shown above, is a beautiful three-story frame ueture, built in old English style “of architecture and painted white. } It is modern in every respect, and its tall, graceful Gothic towers and gables can. be seen from miles There’ are five newly-built and massive stables, sufficient to house over 100 thoroughbreds during the winter. They are located within a ſew hundred yards of the house and connected by well-kept, nicely ar- ranged paddocks. Old Logan, once the speediest horse in the country, and the winner of innumerable “stakes, romped about his enclosure | me a kitten. Just across the way appeared Gold Heels, che king of the stud, proud, ficry and supreme. and all day ot horsemen, neighbors of . uffman’s, stand about the king's stall, gazing and wondering how such a slim, sleek, modest-| “appearing animal could have made the great. record he did. ed 2 pocddock te ng Cup, known to every Wett- he je now te foal to 2 ; The farm is indeed the prettiest, best located and equipped one ever seen. Everything necessary for the comfort and training of the thor- oughbred is right at hand. The five great barns are in perfect condi- tion, warm, cozy and well aired. The big barn is 300 feet long and 100 feet wide. Outside of the stalls, under cover, is a roomy exercising track for winter “warm-ups.” Mr. Arnold’s horses are housed in this barn. On the eastern side of the farm, a half-mile from the mansion, is lo- cated the mile race track. It is in perfect condition, and it required several years of hard work to place it in its present condition. The soil is always soft, and the cushion on top serves to help a horse’s feet in- stead of injuring them. Just west of the track are located the grazing paddocks. The soil is.so rich the grass remains nearly all winter. 3 Despite the equipments noted above, Mr. Arnold says he pro- poses to expend thousands of dol- lars more on the farm in the way of improvements. An important factor on all stud farms is the water, and the farm boasts of three of the finest wells in the surrounding country. There is a waterworks plant right on the grounds, which includes an im- mense tank holding thousands of gallons of water, which is carried off to all parts of the farm through pipes. Arnold & Co. never do things by halves, and it is their intention to make the Greenville purchase a breeding establishment that will be second to none. Prokably $200,000 or more will be expended on im- provements and the purchase of high-class stallions and brood | mares. While the returns from the farm will not come in much before a year or so, when it does it will . “< : - , — A , * 3 ‘ — X. 7 — — mle ae, IE a ts be ow A AW „ „ „% tl 7774 med. | 2 N —— 3. „ ‘ Se. et iw i id Ww LS OLN Se ee * 2 7 5 . ee ene Sees 2 OO 2 — oe.

To make thousands in a single deal you must have thousands to go on. The little investor has no chance with the big investor. This is true of any business. The millions that have been made by the steel trust or the oil trust are due to the principle of combination. The man with a mod- erate capital must combine with other capital, and make the aggre- gate stronger than the resources of any individual, to succeed. The in- vestor who combines with other in- vestors, increases his chance of suc- cess in direct ratio to the bigness of the combination. This is the first principle of a comparatively new form of investment. Any place where money can be legitimately earned is a legitimate field for investment. Money can be earned and lost more quickly on the turf than in any other business. But what makes racing a most fascina- ting form of investment is this: That if you are successful, the earn- ing power of your dollar is 100 per cent. Real estate pays, say 6 per cent a year. A good business pays 15 per cent a year. Values are fixed, profits are slow. But in rac- ing there is a direct earning ca- pacity of 100 per cent on every dol- lar you invest. Why? Because the speculation is immediate and the total value is realized instantly, whereas, in the case of real estate, it takes hundreds of years perhaps to mature. Success on the turf is not a mat- ter of chance, but a matter of busi- ness. The same methods of com- bination of capital, reduction of op- erating expenses, employment of the most skillful managers and competent business men that yield Standard Oil or Steel Trust profits, have the same result when applied to the turf, only, from the nature of the field, the profits are much larg- er, the returns realized in as a pastime, or as an some other business, has no more chance of success than a man with $100 would have to ‘corner the grain market. The public loses the} money, Some ‘bookmakers lose ater: Some owners lose 2 The big bookmakers and owners make money. They make money all the time. They have capital to go on. Their investment yields them steady returns, greater than those afforded by any other business in the world. They are taking no chances. Their natural percentage works for them day in and day out. Now the proposition that it is the business of this article to explain is simply this: By combining capital, by reducing expenses of operation, by using the capital thus acquired with the conservatism and skill that results from years of successful ex- perience on the turf, the co-opera- tive turf company of E. J. Arnold & Co. is enabled to earn profits wholly beyond the conception of people not conversant with turf conditions, or people shackled to the antiquated idea that the only legitimate profit is a small profit. First of all must be taken into con- sideration that it is the easiest thing in the world to verify every state- ment made herein. Arnold & Co. are a St. Louis firm, with offices in the Benoist building. They have been operating here for about four years. Their standing can be as- certained from banks and from the list of their investors. For four years they have been steadily pay- ing dividends. The officers are re- sponsible men. The files of the daily papers, not only in St. Louis, but all over the country, show how and where and when they have earned dividends. The company has a long established reputation not only for success, but for reliability, integrity, financial strength and conserva- tism. It is in a class by itself. Many mushroom imitators have sprung up. Wildcat schemes may shake the public confidence in all turf in- vestments, but the best proof of the soundness of the Arnold Co. proposition is that for years it has been operating the money of their clients with a view not of unearn- able profits, but of safety and con- servatism. What they have paid has been actually earned, and the rec- ords are open to inspection. A re- cent official investigation has been made of this company. Not only it was shown that the firm has available assets greatly in excess oi all liabilities, and that it could wind up business tomo! ~aying off every investor in full, and leaving something like $200,000 in excess of all claims. Arnold & Co, do not pretend to 4, pay the rate of interest offered by certain alleged turf investment con- cerns, because these profits cannot actually be earned, They pay all that can be made in this line of business, and operate only along safe lines, taking no wild chances, but earning a steady, natural, le- gitimate per cent of profit, which is weekly shared with investors. Ev- ery obligation they contract can be fulfilled to the letter. You can prove this for yourself. Don’t go into any scheme blindfolded. Investigate, just as you would a real estate proposition or a chance to buy stock. in any reputable business venture. The investigation that other companies cannot stand and do not want, Arnold & Co. rely on as their best advertisement. Hence their actual bona fide success and the implicit and well-founded confi- dence af their clients. The business of Arnold & Co. is based on these two ideas : Co-oper- ation of capital and investment of that capital on the turf where, by shrewd management and careful handling, the biggest and quickest returns are realized. In the first place Arnold & Co. could not earn big dividends unless they had a great sum of money to do business on. You have to have money to make money, and the more money you have the easier it is to make it yield a big return. Isn't this so of any business? In the next place, it ought to be pretty obvious that big money can be made on the turf. Bookmakers with a bank roll or capital of ten thousand dollars, if they are competent men make any- where from $6000 to $14,000 a year. Bookmakers who do not know their business don’t make anything like this. But good makers make it steadily. Men like Fred Cook, Marcus Cartwright, Barney Schrei- ber, George Rose, O’Leary,: Ull- man have made fortunes and make fortunes every year. The Weller book, at Sheepshead Bay, which was backed by the millions of John Drake and John Gates, cleared over $200,000 during that brief meeting alone. These are facts that can be veriſied by any sporting man or turf journal. Now, then, with a bigger capital to go on than any pose that Arnold & Co. can make}# world, isn’t it reasonable to sup-} just as much money? The ness of Arnold & Co. is divided in to four departments: First, there is the bookmaking departmen Three books are made on the vari- ous tracks which are running. Fe [en instance, there are three books at high New Orleans at present and th at San Francisco. These books managed by the most experjenced| a and capable men in that line. They] not only book to the race, but un- der Mr. Arnold’s up, bet several thousand dollars the race. Their record in the past}: four years spedks for itself, They 0 won steadily. Secondly, there is the} ‘racing stable. The Arnold stable is the strongest in the West. It won} most of the big events this season at the local tracks, swept the boards i when it was shipped to Chicago, and is continuing its winnings at the winter tracks. The stable in cludes such truly great horses as Bessie McCarthy, Ethylene, Peace- ful, Mary McCafferty, Stranger, Fort] Wayne, Maximus, Graden and alf The stable is handled} it by Tom Kiley, esteemed the dest!

In spite of repeated attempts, the idea is still banging away outside the city lim- its of the mind, with no prospect of get- ting in. It appears to us that if the idea was the intangible, incorporeal thing claimed for it, it would adjust itself to the molecular interstices of our cranium and get next to the inside. There is only one drawback to this view and that is that what we think is an idea may be-a counterfeit trying to beat his way. It has been so long since we have been acquainted with a simon-pure idea that it is possible we have failed to detect an imposture. Now that we think of it, this view has something to recommend it. When we ex- amine the meanings of the word peace we find them to be approximately agreed on “a state of tranquility.“ We are prepared to state that there is every probability that the Cincinnati af- fair will not enjoy this felicitous condi- tion. Ban Johnson and Henry Pulliam will bow gracefully to each other at the en- trance to the peace factory meeting, and remerk, After you, sir.“ but it is our pri- vate conviction that Johnson has a brick and Pulliam a slungshot beneath the coat- tails. The Cesire 10 have the other go first, therefore, loses force from ‘a peace stand- point. As we have never attended a peace meet- ing of armed delegates, it may be that our idea“ was counterfeit, after all. At any rate, we will withhold our opinion !n regard to the materiality of ideas until we have a chance to test it on one we are sure about. There ig no use in experiment- ing with uncertainties. In regard to the peace“ matter, we are unable to grasp the idea of what will ac- crue to the American to arbitrate its cage beyond the arrangement to respect con- tracts and fix salary limits. Our ideas are probably mediaeval. but we confess that tn other days, when we got whipped by the enemy and had all our marbles taken, we never encountered an opponent who offered to return the marbles. Personally we would like to eee the Na- tional and the American merge and a 12-club league formed, but we have not been able to discover how it can happen. At last accounts Mr. Johnson still retained possession of his faculties and is there fore unlikely to consent to such an amal- gamation. It is unfortunate that the Nattonal needs peace and the American doesn’t. If you have ever been the under man in a heap of two and havo felt ready to say, ‘‘Suf- ficient,” you will understand the senti- ment of the National. You will also re- member that you were in bad shape to arbitrate the matter or to dictate peace“ terms. It your sentiments were those of our- self in a similar instance, you will re- member that you had as much chance of besting the upper part of the heap as a cave-man has of capturing a battleship. We have never heard of this having been accomplished yet. Briefly, it is possible the American may NERO NOT A TRAPSHOT. fearless trapshots of Milwaukee, have decided that the dangers of The Wis., It was reported from Kansas City that this great study in ex- The latter holds that beer and birds are However this may be, it appears to us Bad as some of the Roman Em- making Wort for a banana-rending popu- The only thing we can say of our old friend, Nero, that has no place in this col- urn, is that he was not a trap-shot. Nero committed many crimes. The prin- cipal ene censisted in entertaming an idea that he could play the fiddle. At other times he promoted the notion that by burn- ing Rome he could give it a hot time. He has also been known to have established a record in the matter of keeping the world from experiencing a congestion of humanity. But with all this we do not re- member any statistics relating to pigeon killing by him. It can be readily seen that this puts a bad appearance on the Milwaukee gun lean. To out-Nero Nero is not a desirable coal. We trust Milwaukee will reconsider its intention. Killing pigeons may be a sport, but it strongly suggests pdt-hunting ducks to a majority of the world. The only dif- ference between the two is that in the duck game one occasionally escapes.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3—The peace meeting between committees of the American and National baseball leagtes, scheduled for Cincinnati next week, has been declared of. President Ban“ Johnson of the Ameri- can League today sald ft was off for the present.“ because the National League we uld not clothe Its committee with plen- ary powers. Garry Herrmann, chairman of the National League committee, has made an earnest effort to t that power for his committee, but has failed. ‘No substantial good could come ‘rom a 4 — with a committee that has Um- ited power. It would simply be a waste of ime,’ sald Mr. Johnson. This seems to end the negotiations for peace between the striving leagues. President Hart of the National League enld: am convinced the American Leegue does not want peace until] it has estahlished clube in New York and Pitts- birg. The National League stands ready to back up ite committee in any reasona- ple policy locking to peace and prosperity.

There are too Man ‘ifs’ in the document to sult me, and there ll be no meeting of the two com- mittees on Monday. There may be later in the week, but that is uncertain. There in no use for us to meet the National League committee unless it has been given full power to act.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 3. — Mexican Pete“ Everett, the big Utah prizefighter, has so sevwred Fitzsimmons and Jeffries for their refusal to meet him in the ring on Thursday night that a street fight is prob- able during the week's stay of Fitzs:mmons and Jeffries in this city. Mexican Pete“ is keeping a close watch upon the big fighters. He says he is afraid they will jump out of town. He reiterates that no man can “put him out” in four rounds, and says that the champions are afraid of him and that, unless they fight him, he will scandalize them by calling them cowards on the streets. Pete says he defeated Jeffries in private recently in Frisco. Fitz and Jeffries are so angered that their manager sald today that he would lock up either man in a room with Mexican Pete“ and if the latter stays four rounds he would get $1000. ‘‘Pete’’ is now eonsidering this proposition. Fitz and Jeffries were shown a dispatch from Butte, coming from Clarke Ball, man- ager of Munroe, in which the former said Tommy Ryan would train Munroe and the latter would challenge Jeffries for the championship of the world. They both laughed, and Jeffries sald Munroe could have $1000 any time he desired to try and stay four rounds before him. Fitz said: * ‘Tommy Ryan can train Mun- roe for a year and then he can act as Mun- Weis second, and I will bet $1000 I can put him out inside of four rounds.’ ——— — —— asked by Matchmaker Bob Gray if he would box Hart next month, he promptly renlied he r * lad to do so.

Abe Attell, the clever featherweight, is matched to fight Eddie Hanlon — the San Francisco Athletic Club Jan. 23. At- tell is conceded to be one of the cleverest boys ever seen in a ring, but he lacks the punching powers, while Hanlon fights on the McGovern style and carries a knockout punch in either hand.

Matures a Big Deal. ‘ Tinie Mercantile irust Co: opens the new year with the sale of the southeast corner of Twenty-first and Olive streets for the account of John M. Sellers, Jesse French et al., to August B. Hart for $33,500, The property embraces almost one-quar- ter of a block, extending east by 197 feet li inches on Olive street by a depth south- wardily of 109 feet to an alley. The im- provement consists of three-story brick residences, 2114-16-18-20-22-24-20-2 and wv on Olive street. Mr. Hart is one of the trustees of (Ne Oliver A. Hart estate, but he is understood to have purchased this property on his in- dividual account. The reaity of the Hart estate and as well as that of Mr. Hart has proven most sat- isfactory, having been judiciously selected end inteliigently managed. It has grown in value with the growth of the city and has proven an excellent investinent. The prop- érty in question wil! net Mr. Hart about 5 per cent, and being in ‘the active portion of Olive street, east of Jefferson avenue, where there is a decidedly encouraging Outlook, he has wndoubtediy. secured an investment that will yield him a fair rate of interest and will increase in value. It will be remembered that the Mercantile Trust Co. in December sold to Mr. Hart and Mr. Semple, as trustees of the Hart estate, a large tract of ground on Washing- ton avenue, corner of Twenty-second street, which. they bought for an investment. . Another Hotel for Grand and Olive. Architects are up to their eyes in work. Many building projects,‘ they say, which had their origin in 1902. are assuming def- inite shape and will become a material re- &lization before the lapse of another year. | Active building operations on a number of World's Fair hotels and restaurants which are to be bullt on borrowed capital have been deferred as an interest-saving | measure. J. I. Epstein and others admitted Satur- day afternoon that the deal for the 10-story fireproof hotel to displace the Grand Ave- nue at the southeast corner of Grand avc- nue and Olive streets was practically as- sured. An option has been given, through Mr. Epstein, to eastern capitalists for a | 99-year lease of the premises, and the fina! apers in the transaction, it Is said, will i+ closed this weck. when the reqttisite 'bond for the leasehold will be executed. The theater adjunct of the hotel ernter- prise is contingent upon the outcome of several theater protects for this neighbor- hood, the success of any one of which will result in the elimination of this feature. The services of one of the most experi- enced and accomplished hotel and restau- rant men of New York City has n re- tain and the hotel will be conducted along ‘the most exclusive lines, i cost of construction is estimated at $730, Hotel Planned for Jefferson and Olive.

Johnson has closed a lease of the southeast corner of Jefferson avenue and Olive street to the Olive Street Bul.iding Co. for a term of 89 years.

The Post-Dispatch publishés today all the facts obtainable con- cerning the charge of, J. A. McQuttty, editor of the Rochport Democrat, that Parker, the embezzling ex-treasurer of Vernon County, paid $1000 to secure his release from the state peniten- tiary through a sick pardon. The Post-Dispatch gives the statements of all persons concerned in the case. McQuitty makes affidavit that the money was paid and that he was told by Carstarphen. who handled it, that it was divided between ex-Gov. Stone, Hoss. and himself. Dr. Todd. former representative of Vernon County, who actual'y secured the pardon, says that no money was necessary and that no one offered him any money and if any money was taken, it was a case of dleeding.“ Gov. Dockery says he issued the pardon on the sick certificate from the penitentiary physician and on Todd s representation. It is a remarkable case and indicates the possibility of a pardon brokerage business being conducted in the penitentiary It is the duty of the state legislature to investigate this case, to the end that all the facts may be obtained under oath, and the lame placed where it belongs. If convicts in the peniten- tiary are paying out money for pardons, the people should know exactly how tie pardons are secured and who gets the money. The Post-Dispatch prints also a review of ex-Gov. Stone’s rec- ord in connection with the lobby and its work in endeavoring to control legislation and contracts for corporation cients. The rec- ord 4s convincing of the fact that ex-Gov. Stone, who now seeks the highest legislative office in the gift of Missourt, held his ser- vices and personal and political influence for sale to the high- est bidder who wented favors from the state, regardless of the public welfare, The contrast of this record with the career of Senator George G. Vest, which is sketched in the paper, points to a humiliating decline ir the standard of character, integr. ty and capacity in the Missouri senatorship, if ex- Gov. Stone is able to enforce upon the Demccratic majority of the state legislature the demand of the party machine that he be elected de the Senate against the will and judgment of most of the Democratic legislators. . 9 How to make gold easily was discovered in Chicago some years ago, and now a Chicagoan is to draw lightning enough from the upper air to produce light and power in inexhaustible quantities.

With the new right and tight divorce law, now in process of incubation, tiose hasty lovers who rush prematurely into mat- rimony will have mere trouble than ever. The man who was “overtaken by the bitter pill of adversity” would perhaps like t+ meet the man in Phelps county who “has met with a circumstince in hie well going dry.“ Mr. Derew's exquisite little joke that “the dry docks are thirsty physiclans“ may have been suggested by the M.

Minnesota is a grand state, but so long as Providence places coal deposits in the hands of a few chosen agents there may be more coal riots in St. Paul, where this winter so many people who, though having money to burn, are without substantial fuel.

U b : 7 celebrated the seventy-second anni- | versary of his birth. He began life in the days when the railroad wasa novelty, the telegraph was an experiment,the oceanic cable a dream, the telephone, phonograph, electric light, electric motor, the submarine boat and aseptic surgery less than dreams. He has lived through the wonderful age of 3 and into the infancy of the air ship. He was a stage coach pioneer, an emi- grant from Kentucky to Missouri before there was a railway west of the Mississippi and during nearly all the years of his manhood he has been a publle servant. In the 43 years beginning with 1860 he has been a private citizeh but a few months more than ten years. It was in 1879 that he was elected senator from Missouri to succeed James Shields, who filled the seat vacated by the death of Lewis V. Bogy. For 24 years—ending next March—Vest has remained senator from Missouri, | were but to say that he would serve a Missouri's the fifth time. He is old; he is tired; he says he wants no have failed; his voice lost its mufic, its! ring and penetrating power. The weakness ot age is on him, and he will not linger ‘superfluous to the stage which so many years has recognised his force. If he would but say: Let me die a sen- ator.“ his election would fol.ow as surely as another day will dawn. For this li tle man has so enamored the Missouri heart no combination of lobbyists or politicians would be permitted to defeat his desire. He is a little man, big only in mentality. He was an aggressive man, a fighter of the Roosevelt school, as radical in his time and way as Roosevelt. He was a brilllan: man, shining conspicuously in the old- fash- ioned field of oratory. He was born in Kentucky, educated at Lexington, filled there with the spirit of the -politieal campaign and love of. the con- vincingly spoken word. Justice Harlan’s father grounded him in the law after his graduation from Center College and fi ted him for the law school of Transylvania College, where Kentucky’s greatest were trained. Today a man who speaks haltingly and fears an audience as he fears death, may win high office by the use of other arts, and it is no longer imperatively demandad of an aspirant for a place of prominence in the world that he be a doctor, lawyer. preacher or politician. In George G. Vest's youth the man who could not orate was looked upor as a defective only qualified to Keep store. ord the highest field of ac- tivity was politics, to which the law was a stepping stone.

There is not in all his speeches one which Twill become a classic. What he had to say was constructed in words and phrases to reach the ear of the man before him, not the distant eve of him who might read. His speeches had no literary permanence; they were of thr day, the occasion; gra>xe- ful, polished at points, rude and even un- if the ceccazion demanded; filled with anecdote, apt illustration and strange the e Mae 24 one ps lo to.the Rest He Has a EORGE GRAHAM VEST last month | © and, if he Legislature would elect him tor more of office.

T Is said that death is the great ] enemy of our race, but under cer- tain circumstances enc en\iron- ments this is not true. When the young, vigorous, ambitious and hope- ful are stricken down, we mand shocked, as if before scme unfinished painting or statue where the pencil or chisel has fallen from the nerve- less hands of a great artist. but! when life's work is done. when the task is finishod and we simply wait the inevitable end, death is often- times a friend.

He meat that he did not wish to live afier passion and appetite were dead; when fte had become an every- day, hand to hand conflict with dis- ease and pain, and when we were about to sink into that stage of senil- ity and second childhood when we become objects of pity, if not of tempt. | —From the eulogy of Senator Morrill, where appre- Stenography caught no hint of his quality; it was as useless for the purpose of record when he spoke as it woull be when Calve sings. Yet he swayed, domirated not only the audiences at the crossroads, not only conventions, but speech-wearied legislators A strangely. powerful little man, strong physically, enduring in spite of his cling- ing to the habits enjoined on men by cus- tom in his youth.

In the economy of “God's grace, we are charged with the responsibility of evangelizing our own city. Surely the pleasure of saving is intensified when we may save our fam- ilies, our friends, our neighbors, our fel- low-citizens. And if the blood of lost souls be upon us, more than all others will the blood of these around us haunt us, as the blood of Bartholomew's victims, like stalking srectera, haunted the soul of Charles IX. Who are the lest of St. Louis? very one who has reached the years of accourita- bility who has not personally accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior, and definitely trusted hin: for calvation. With our edu- cational and reiigious advantages the time of personal accountability to God comes much seoner than in some places, and in earlier tin:es here. The average child of 5 or 6 years here in our city can upderstand the terms of sal- vation, and may accept them and follow them, and is saved in so doing. It they may. they must, or suffer the consequences of rejecting or neglecting.

(Copyright, 1003, by the Press Publishing Co.) GENEVA, Switserlend, an. 3. Never, never will I go back there. Never would I return to the position of princess. They are slaves, aristocatic slaves to etiquette, slaves, nothing else.”— Louise Antoinette, Crown Princess of Saxony. “Divoree or no divorce ; married or not married, we will live together always. Madame, the crown princess, has herself written to the Pope, laying all the circum- stances before him.“ —M. Giron, the crown princess’ lover. Such were the emphatic, aye, passionate, declarations the eloping Crown Princess of Saxony and Andre Giron, formerly the French tutor of the royal children, made to the Post-Dispatch correspondent. “But it is said that it will be impossible to get the Pope’s consent to a divorce, as canonical grounds cannot be alleged, and, as Catholics, you cannot be married unless the Pope annuls the previous marriage,” the Post-Dispatch correspondent remarked. “In writing to him, Giron responded, „madame quoted an instnce in which the Vatican granted annulment of marriage under similar circumstances.” PRINCESS RELIES-ON LADY MARY HAMILTON'S CASE. Giron did not cite the instgnce relied upon, but the Post-Dispatch correspondent has reason to be that it is the case of Lady Mary Hamilton, a sister of the late Duke _ of Hamilton, who married the present Prince of Monaco, and separated from him at _ the end of a month. On the plea that she was not a consenting party to the contract _ and wedded against her will, the Pope annulled the marriage. us Lady Mary subsequently married Count Lassli Festetics. The only son of this ’ union committed suicide last week by hanging himself from the bars of a window in a room in an asylum for the insane, where he had been confined. This case obviously is not paralleled to that of the Crown princess. But the latter 10 | @learly meditates getting a civil divorce, if not a religious separation, and Lachenal, ber lawyer in Geneva, is making inquiries concerning the possibilities of doing so.“ GOING TO LIVE IN PARIS WHEN THEY DARE LEAVE GENEVA. “Tt is said that you intend to live in Paris,” the Post-Dispatch correspondent said. “Yes,” replied the princess, “I have only spent 12 days of my life in Paris, but I ‘love it. We will live with economy for ourselves, but will cultivate art. When we “ean safély do so, We will go there. At present, I am advised that we could be arrested on French soll. So, if we had gone to Mentone, we should now be in prison. Indeed, We are eo here, as we cannot leave the canton of Geneva. But it is a beautflui tirst impression, on seeing the eloping crown princess and her Belgian cavalier, u one of surprised disillusionment. + PORTRAIT OF PRINCESS. | _.

Madame took away only such jewels as were her private property. The greater part of them were hers before she was married. They are valued at about 800,000 francs ($160,000). “Under the German law, when married. erty with the crown prince, and, t she wished, she could have taken all the family jewels, worth several million francs, with- out committing any criminal offense, Kut, although the crown prince merited no con- sideration at her hands, her sense of deli- cacy prevented: her taking anv jewels ox; . “We gent ther to my brother simply as she enjoyed 2 community ef prop- P ~. — — . ĩ r * 2 orm ver aera he LD d 4 1 1 Did: we — — — _ SUMMER RESIDENCE oF THE ROYAL FAMILY OF SAXONY. . ‘PRINCES®’ LITTLE — — — — — — — One?

Besides, I had forgotten the import tax of 10 per cent on the declared value. “AN INFAMOUS LIE.” “My brother, being merely a militety or- ficer, could not produce 80,000 francs ($16,000) for the import duty, so they have been sent back to Geneva and at this moment lie in a bank here. It has been said, too, that I tried to make away with ma&dame’s jew- els, sending them to my brother. It is an infamous lie!“ The princess interfered with feeling: “The monsieur paid the insurance and handed me the policy and the receipt, so the jewels remained absolutely at my disposal. That.“ added Giron, is the true story of the jewels, which have given far more concern to the newspapers than they have to us. We sent them to Brussels simply as a precaution. They are not safe in 4 hotel, as we frequently are out and have nowhere to keep them here. “We would have deposited them in a bank here in the first instance had we thought of it. The documents relating to them are now deposited with Mr. Lachenal, our lawyer. Madame gave them to him.“ “You are nappy, then, madame,” the Post-Dispatch correspondent suggested. LONGS FOR CHILDREN. „My sole sorrow. the princess respond- ed; is that I cannot have news of my children. I have written and telegraphed daily to Dresden for word, but there comes no answer. “Tt is said that, because I was a princess, I should be denied the right any other woman, in my circumstances, could assert to see her children. I shall persevere until at least right is recognized. “It cannot be taken from me. I ask of the crown prince. “They hope, doubtless, by keeping you apart from your children to induce you to return to Dresden, the correspondent re- marked. Then it was that the princess earnestly spoke the words quoted at the head of this dispatch. Never, never will I go back there. Never would I return to the tion of princess. They are slaves, afistocratic slaves to etiquette—slaves, nothing else. Besides, this is no passing fancy, no amourette; it is profound love. It is the duty of a man and a woman to mate for consceince's sake. We will live our own lives together at whatever cost.“ The princess was looking tired, and Giron said: “We both are greatly fatigued. We have been through such anxicus days Thervupon the correspondent thanked the princess for her courtesy and with- drew. SHE IS NOT HANDSOME. While the princess was speaking, she displayed fervor and determination, but, withal, she has softness of disposition, which left au agreeable imprcsrion. she is not handsome, nor even what is called good looking. Her photograph conveys an idea of a woman of much more striking presence and character than she can really lay claim to being. Her glanocs toward Giron were melting in theic tenderness, almost embarrassing to the third party. But she really seemed oblivious of everyone's presence in those moments, and, in epeaking of her love for Giron, she layed a lack of reserve quite abnormal. She is an enigma. Her renouncing of the crown, sesminugly is no notoriety hunting pose, but a genuine revolt against condi- tions of Ute heteful to her. is no It is all Yet, e ons Kink in her nature.

He is without capacity for sympathy, is as stupid and unformed in the mind as a boy of 10. Madame loves reading, loves art, loves music. They were her resources. He abso- lutely feared them. “She must not read the newspapers be- cause they spread injurious ideas. “She must not read romances because they do not respect the conventionalities. “She must not cultivate any innocent pas- time because it was undignified.’ And she must not even enjoy music because it un- settled the mind. She must do nothing but live according to etiquette, never forget- ting that she was to be Queen some day. “The Saxon people disliked the crown prince. They adored her.“ “Tt is said everywhere that they loved her,“ the correspondent commented. Adored, I say,“ repeated Giron, with emphasis. She was charitable and treatea everyone, high and low, like a human be- ing, not as though they were created to stand in awe of her.” The existence led at the Hotel d’Angle- berre by Giron and the crown princess is simple and regular. THEY LIVE SIMPLY. The crown princess rises every morning at 6:20 o'clock, while it is still dark, and reads and answers letters, assisted by Giron. About 8, having had chocolate, she goes with Giron for a walk of half an hour, usually along the lakeside away from the town. She returns and at 10 is accom- panied to the hair-dresser’s by Giron, who leaves her usually and returns in half an hour. They then take a walk through the streets, occasionally going on tram cars to the suburbs, very rarely hiring a cab. At 1 o'clock they lunch, the meal being selected from the table d'hote, end consists of dish of meat, one vegetable and desscrt followed by coffee. One bottle of light wine, with mineral water, suffices for the day. Then comes a walk of-an ‘hour in the afternoon, with usually a visit to Law- yer Lachenal. .They return to the hotel, dine at 7 and retire at 10:30. 5 crown princess has only been seen in o difverent dresses since her arrival in Geneva. Both are of the plainest de- scripticn. One was bought in Geneva ready made at a store en Rue de Rhone. SHADOWED BY COURT SPY. They are watched with cat-like stealth every time they leave the hotel ‘Sy Schwartz, a detective from the Dresden royal palace, who lives on the same floor. He has been warned by the Swiss au- thorities that if he gives ground for com- plaint he will be put across the frontier. So he is careful to do his work as unosten- tatiously as pvesible. He sits in his room all dey with a door aja: commanding theirs. He telegraphs to Dresden each evening of their movements. It is said that he has a warrant for their arrest to be served immediately they leave the canton of Geneva, tut: Lawyer Lache- nal informs the correspondent that no war- rant could be obtained in any cunton until the parties cffected were sworn to be with- in its confines. He holds that Giron and the crown princess are safe only in this can- ton, and would be Hable to arrest in any other in the confederation. LAWYER WANTS NO FEE. „There is no doubt that on French soil they could be arrested cn complaint of the husband that his wife was living with an- other man. enal has “omm*:*-G e- self also to the arsertion that they could be arrested in England. which ts distinctly the Saxon ſa w, when a member of the Sax- on royal family commits an offense against a family, the authority to decide whether a suit shall be instituted rests exclusively with the King. “whe matter is withdrawn from the juris- diction of the ordinary courts in Saxony and the tribunal before which the offender is tried is a family council convoked by the King. “That is a grave matter for the crown princess, as it places her absolutely at the mercy of the King and the royal family, who naturally are deeply incensed against her. The marriage will be dissolved, but on conditions the least favorable to her. “Giron, I fear, in his desire to place the facts before the public—a desiré honorable and natural—in defense of the crown princess, has been indiscreet. He has talked too freely. Everything. he says can only further outrage the feelings of the crown princess“ relatives. Complete silence is the only thing that could have ameliorated the gravely difficult problem. I have told him 80. ‘Doubtless, as the result of statements attributed to him, reflecting on the crown prince, he has receiyed threatening letters. The anonymous threats I disreagard, but some signed with the names of officers of the Saxon army cannot be disregarded.“ SAXON OFFICER’S THREAT. On further inquiry, the correspondent learned that these letters are of so specific a character that Giron has obtained the authorization of the Geneva authorities to carry a revolver to defend himself. One letter comes from a lieutenant, an aristocrat related to the Saxon royal fam- ity. who charged Giron with dishonoring and defaming the crown prince, his superior officer. Knowing that the crown prince could not take satisfaction, the lleutenant anid he would seite an early opportunity to be revenged, even at the cost of his life. Whether this means that the lleutenant will shoot him at sight or insult him and provoke a duel, Giron cannot determine. He is prepared for either event. The crown princess is.expecting a visit from the stork at the end of April or the beginning of May. The fate of this child is one of her great- est concerns. The freedom with which she spoke of the subject to the correspondent of a Vienna paper today is another {fllus- tration of her extraordinary lack of the ordinary sense of feminine delicacy. Giron says that letters intercepted by the mistress of the wardrobe of Dresden leave no doubt as to the paternity of the ex- pected infant, yet the crown prince intends apparently to claim it. That would break the crown princess’ heart. SPEAKS OF UNBORN CHILD. The thought that he would have to grow up among my other children,“ she said, ‘at the court of Dresden was insupportable. Everyone there knows the truth. Poor little thing, it is doomed to suffer for me. Surely that must not be.“ She also said: I have no feeling of regret or repentance for what I have done. I acted after ma- turely considering everything, and I am convinced that I have done right. If the world knew all I have suffered, then it might judge me fairly.”’ On Wednesday morning, the correspond- ent was in the hotel vestibule when a man a oe ea yy Cc [companion said they would call again and would await his sister’s raurn on the“ quay, where they sat on a bench, baie 53 toward Mont Blanc.

Politically he was impregnable. Some of his work to avoid detection and ward off his inevitable doom was worthy the genius, of Jim the Penman. The county treasurer was supposed to make quarterly reports. Time and again the year 1898 Parker was pressed tor a statement of his fiscal affairs, but always preferred plausible excuses. KITED CHECKS TO SAVE HIMSELF. ‘In April, 1898, a bond payment of $13,000 fell due. On a Thursday the county court issued a warrant on the county treasurer for this ambunt and at the same time or- dered him to make a full settlement of his affairs. — The bond to be redeemed was held by a St. Louis business man. Parker was granted until Monday follow- ing to comply with the court's order. On Saturday he went to the bank and the warrant, whi have canceled, and secured cgedit for $13,- 0m. Then he went to St. Louis, took up the bond and gave the holder thereof a check on the Bank of Nevada for $13,009. not possible for this check reach the Nevada Bank, owing to clear- ance at Kansas City, before 10 or 11 o'clock Monday morning. ; The county court convened at 9 a. m. Parker entered with his books. he had procured $13,000 from the bank on the warrant he ted deposited there.

This represented the amount of his ehortage. The court audited the books, and found thém apparontly all right. After Parker left court he returned with the $13,000 to the bank, and an hour later the check for that sum arrived Parker was saved. The news spread that his accounts were O.

This was done, And. as Parker walked into the office, In. ticed that he appeared very pale and rather emaciated. After “Gibson had left. I asked Parker if he had a cough, and he repl'cd that he had not. later, 1 noticed tient he coughed and I examined his throat. The examination convinced me that he wes suffering with tuberculosis. I at once con- cluded that he was a sick man, and when I found that he had lost 40 pounds inside of a few months my belief wea further confirmed. 1 said to Parker: The state of Missouri has no right to kill any man not convicted of a capital offense. I am golng to try: to have you pardoned.’ J consul with Dr. Martin, the prison physician, and he agreed with me that Parker was in the most wretched phy- sical condition. I called on Gov. Dockery, with the prison physican’s certificate, and laid the matter before him. I do not recall just what the governor said, but it was to the effect that if Parker was in danger of dying. and the prison physician so cer- tified, he would grant a pardon. I remem- ber having told the governor that Parker would not live 90 days if kept in confine- ment, and that I did not believe he would live nine months if released. Several days prior thereto George B. Carstarphen, a clerk in the office of the secretary of. state, approached me in the upper hall of the capital building and in- quired what the prospect was of doing any- thing for Parker. He seemed to know all about the effort I was making for Park- er’s pardon, and I very readily told him just what had been done. He seemed interested, and stated that he would be glad to co-operate with me. 1 spoke about’ bringing a physician from Vernon County to assist in the examina- tion of Parker. I suggested L. H. Calio- way. Previously I was convinced that, in addition to lung trouble, Parker was af- flicted with diabetes, and the two together had completely wrecked his health. Car- starphen made immediate arrangements for bringing Dr. Callowcy to Jefferson City by telephoning or writing to Kimborough Stone, son of ex-Gov. Stone, who was then in St. Louts. The next day young Stone came to Jefferson City and from there went. to Nevada and returned. Dr. Callo- way came in a few days. He, Dr. Martin and myself made a thorough examination of Parker, and our diagnosis.was that he had tuberculosis and diabetes. According- ly, Dr. Martin issued a certificate and Parker was freed.“ “Are you certain, doctor, that you discussed this case with no other per- son besides Kimborough Stone and G. B. Carstarphen?P”’ Hoss.“ „What did Mr. Hoss have to do with “Why, I do not know. My meeting with him came about in this way: Mr. Carstarphen came to me some days be- fore Parker was pardoned, and said that G. S. Hoss was at the hotel and wanted to see me. I had some trouble in finding him and when I did we took a carriage and went to the peni- tentiary. On the way Mr. Hoss ques- tioned me about the progress of the pardon proceedings. I do not think we saw Parker at that time. Stone, Hoss and Carstarphen were so active in the matter that I became suspi- cious.” Dr. Todd was asked what he meant by was no friend or relative there to accom- pany him and care for him on his journey to the Indian Territory.

Neither did the prison inspectors who indorsed Dr. Martin's Considering the nature of Parker’s crime and the enormity of his steal- ings, it might be expected that the facts of the case would appear in the record of the pardon proceedings. But there is only the govornor's letter and the prison physicians certificate on ond term as treasurer of Vernon County file.

Tou cannot quote ms tco The Post-Dispatch cannot give this mat- ter too much publicity, so far as I am concerned. I am giad that it is receiving a thorough airing. Only today I met a man who told me that I was suspected of shar- ing in some boodle put up by Parker to get out of the penitentiary. I know that my offices in the matter may not have been appreciated by the people of Vernon Coun- ty, but I acted in good faith, and would do as I have done under similar circum- stances. Of course, doctors ere sometimes fooled, but I do not think I was mistak- en in this case. I had only a speaking ac- quaintance with Parker before I saw him, and as I have said before, our mecting was purely accidental. I believe him guilty of the charge of which he was convicted, and I had no sympathy for him as a man. He led a fast life, and I never thought he was the proper man to be treasurer of Vernon County, but the law distinctly says that where a prisoners life is in danger from confinement it is the duty of the prison -“T also desire to say,“ concluded Dr. Todd, ‘that there was no need of Kim- brough Stone going after Dr. Calloway, be- cause I knew the latter well, and he would have come more readily at my request. mmended, and. having «ympathy for him, we natural- ly became good friends, and I granted him the privilege of transmitting let- tevs more frequently than the regula- tions allowed. Another emplove hand- led the ſncoming mail, and, in order to avoid any complaint, I consented to have Parker's letters inclosed in envelopes addressed to me. On the night of the day that Stone and Hoss called I met Gov. Stephens and mentioned to him what had trans- pired. The governor very promptly said that he would not perdon Par- ker. As an excuse to justify his lib- eration, Parker had said to me that he was sick. After Gov. Stephens’ declination to entertain any proposi- tion looking towards Parker's freedom, the matter rested until Gov. Deckery went into office. Meanwhile, however, Parkæœ was in constant communication with his wife and others. In the penitentia he had made the acquaintance of es Eagan, a United States government prisoner, who had received five years for manipulating government bonds. Eagan operated extensively in the In- dian Territory, and was suppoeed to have reaped a golden harvest from his fraudulent schemes. He and Parker roomed together, Eagan being con- nected with the surgical department. Parker, finding it impossible to raise the necessary $1000, induced Eagan to lend him $400. During this time Par- ker received letters signed Stone & Hoss, telling him, in effect, of the favorable progress of the negotiations to obtain his release. These letters were originally sent by Mr. Hoss to George B. Carstarphen, a clerk in the _ Office of the secretary of state, and by him forwarded to me. I opened all of these communications and always ex- amined their contents. As Parker re- ceived this money in various sums from his wife and friends, he gave it to me and I in turn handed it to Car- starphen in his, office at the capitol. Sometimes the money came to Par- ker in the form of drafts, and when it was not convenient to have them cashed I gave them to Carstarphen. It was understood that Gov. Dockery would not grant a pardon unless it were shown that Parker was really sick and that further imprisonment would greatly endanger or shorten life. Being continually in the drug depart- ment Parker acquired an intimate knowledge of chemicals. ‘When he en- tered the penitentiary he was consid- ered a perfectly well man, and sud- denly he collapsed physically and a medical examination was ordered. Dr. Todd. who then represented Ver- non County in the legislature, was ap- proached about this time and induced to interest himself in Parker’s plea for pardon, The two met in the drug de- partment and Parker, in a despairing sort of way, told Representative Todd that he did not think he would live long. Todd asked him the trouble anda he replied that he had consumption or Bright's disease. ; Some time after Todd left Parker told me that he would like to make him a present of a gold chain. I conveyed this offer to Todd, and he turned it down, saying that if he did anything like that he could never Former again face his constituents. Todd visited Parker several times and was occasionally accompanied by were members of the Vernon County Court. Dr. Martin, the head physician of the penitentiary, another doctor and Dr. Todd diagnosed Parker's case, and de- cided that his illness was such that he Parker had be could not longer remain in confine- serious, and thi ment. 5 Dockery granted the pardon, a dratt amounting to $300 or $325 was received 2 5 : 4 7 4 : 727 = : > * 0 = 3 £503 mS 9 A * 9 * * — ae —— oe, . * 9 ee eee 5 . . 5 8 8 ye K N cial . 5 ey —- ee fatally ill, he fe E K 2 8 tes an j Payer me a Ss wae ; how * 1595 ay * 1 1 ae a 1 ; * A* Tee —— >. * — § . 2 45 he. * 8 7 iin * 8 * A By 53 * Bh Spee | pe 2 7 5

STREET RAILWAYS 9 EMPLOY HIM. In this effort to equalize taxation by placing a fair share of the taxes on the wealthy and powerful franchise corpora- tions, ex-Gov. Stone ranged himself and his great tinfluence as ex-governor and leader of his party, on the side of the tax- dodging franchiee companies. To Attorney-General Crow he presented an elaborate legal argument, contending that it was not within the power of the „ under the statutes, to tax franch'se property. He argued that a special law providing for franchise taxation wculd be necessary to enable the board to assess franchisees. To then Gov. Stephens, ex-Gov. Stone ab- pealed against the increase of asseesment, on the ground of party and political ex- pediency. He urged that it wold be un- wise to alienate the corporate interests be- cause it would endanger the party's success in the nation and the state. He ured that the Democratic administration in the state should be lentent with the rich and rower- ful corporations, in order to gain their aid and support.

BY GEORGE D. L. KELLEY. So far the bull movement in wheat has proven a disappointment to the people who have backed that side of the market. Not thut any great breakdown in value has hit wheat, but there has been a complete halt brought about in the upward move in values, almost a complete failure of speculation to come in that would give the necessary lifting power to the market, and a considerable elimination of bullish condi- tions and a failure of some of the condi- tions that remain in the situation to de- velop enough impressive 3 to kee KIESELHORST’S COMBINATION speciation lined up on thé long side. In that connection it may be stated that something ike disintegration has set in among the bulis, both as regards specula- tion and sentiment, and this has improved bearish speculation and seniiment as a result. The large long intrests are prac- tically intact, ie some of it said to be hedged by sales in other markets, but many of the traders who had been con- spicuous as buyers. and always ready to ve the market a helping hand on bad spots have switched over and are playing for lower prices.

I hope none will, do so, they look so grand. To me this they were like houses ott of Fairyland, especially because I saw them in the place that I last saw when it was a wilderness. The sun began to get low, and I was afraki I could not get back home before dark. The driver started toward the gate of the park. But that was not the end of our ride. We came to a street called Union boulevard, and we rode on it until I thought we would never stop. A bicycle rider rode up behind us and warmed him- self in the steam that escaped from our automobile. I saw a beautiful house of white brick on Washington terrace and I was told that it was the home of Corwin Spencer. It is large enough to hold a half dozen of the houses that I know best. From Union boulevard we rode over to King's highway. On that street we passed more wonderful homes. In Portland place I was shown the homes of S. M. Kennard and C. L. Carter, just opposite each other and making handsome headings for Port- land place. I wondered what folks wanted with such large houses. Sakes alive, how do they keep them clean? At Hortense place we saw the residence of J. D. Goldman. I like to see homes more than anything else. We saw the new St. John’s Church at King’s highway and Washington. It is a fine church. It made me think of a time when all the church St. Louis had was a I saw the cornerstone of the ca- thedral at Second and Walnut laid. Then we went back to Lindell boulevard again and travcled east. In a little while we were back at the place where we had taken the automobile. We changed there from the automobile to the street car. I climbed down from the seat of the machine that had taken me through fairyland. It had done its work well and it had shown me wonderful sights. The street car was crowded. ; When we got downtown the streets couldn't be seen because of the people. We went into a restaurant, and we could scarcely get in. Folks were sitting at all the tables, it seemed to me. We crowded all the way back to the door, and a@ young man dressed in white brought us coffee and cake. The cake was good. So was the coffee. We went out when we were through, but other folks just stayed there, talkifig as if they had nothing to do. It was dusk when we stood waiting for a Broadway car. Lights were burning in all the stores. The N NHD DEATHS. CREEDON—On Saturday, Jan. 8, 1903, at 1 p. m., Jeremiah C.

There came the woful day when George Eliot suffered the anguish of learn- ſug that she had not existed as the only woman in all creation for the man for whom she had braved and endured all things, Tf, as it is argued, our divorce laws only breed conjugal disceatent, how is it that this unhappy complaint is so prevalent in South Carolina, where there are ro di- vorces? South Carolina,” says Cherstow, with a swell of righteous pride, enjoys the unfading glory of being the only state in the Union that has not granted a divorce since the Revolution.” It enjoys as well the unfading glory of being the only state in the Union obliged to make special prop- erty laws for the heirs of concubinage. A cause of this infelicity which has led to so much domestic upheaval, regarding which the pulpit has maintained ever the most singular silence, is the marriage of convenience. Woman is born and bred to the idea that her divine mission, her nat- ural end in life, is marriage. Her home training, her social training. history, fle- tion and the drama all teach her this. She is educated, brought out,“ provided with opportunities, that e may fulfill the sa- ered function for which she was created. To the woman without fortune marriage offers itself as a refuge from the sordid battle for existence and povertied old age: a kindly shield from the mournful fate of the despised dependent.“ To those seeking rellease from association which, if not positively unendurable to one or both, does not satisfy the heart, the austere and Whexcrable decree of church and state is, “Husband and wife till deat) do you part. What God hath joined to- gether let no man put asunder.“ What God hath joined together, indeed! We are not at all sure that God had a hand in any such botch. To interpret God's con- ception of marriage as a mere mercenary enterprise—a cold barter of a coronet for a dowry—is to charge God with standards passing mundane, A faithful portrayal of the disappoint- ments of the marriage of convenience is made by Dr. Max Nordau in his little drama, “The Right to Love.” Mother,“ says the young wife, in an agony of despair, who discovers that she has a heart as well as an ambition, Why did you marry me?“ “You were ,“ replies the mother: we had only my widow’s pension. I desired to secure your happiness, and, according to human judgment, the conditions for it ex- isted in your * Marriage as a Duty. “The conditions for it never existed where the heart does not speak,“ returns Bertha. “Marriege, then, is no joy?” “Marriage,” says madame, is not solely joy. Marriage is as well a duty, a social mission.

Ilere is a sum sufficient to 600 ’ an in- come of $10,000 a year or $200 a week paid out fur a single get of books. The world of books has never tefore seen anything like this. Twenty-five cents a wori for every word waliten by Paul de Kock during his life staggers the imagina- tion. It is possible that very old books, such as the earliest editions of the Bible or the first printed books of the old poets, have brought as much from wealthy men with a mental thirst for ancient works. But here is an absolutely new edition of 50 volumes selling at $4000 a volume. In additicn to the $200,000, or “King Rene edition,” which has already been sold, there is a single “Charlemagne” edition which you may buy for $150,000. The other sets of the De Kock works are as fcilows: The “Biblomaniac” edition, consisting of 10 sets, $50,090 a set; tha Romainville“ edi tion, 26 sets, $11,250 a set; the Passy edi- tion, 50 sets, $3125 a set; the “St. Martin“ edition, 100 sets, $1500 a set; ho Memorial“ edition, 250 sets, $760 a set; the “St. Ger vals” edition, 500 sets, $375 a set. Every edition of the publication contains a eworn affidavit of the publishers, the printer, translator and the !lluminators set- ting forth that only so many sets have been printed, that the translations are original and made especially for this work, and the amount illuminating done. This is some- thing which no publisher of Umited editions has ever done before. The entire Bibliomaniac edition of 10 sets at $50,000 a set, has been sold to New York and Boston purchasers. The 26 sets compris- ing the Romainville edition have also been disposed of at $11,250 a set. | All the decorations and illustrations in all That Is 9 Recently Paid to a Boston Firm of Publishers—Why the Edi- tion lg Valued So Highly. the different scts are actua!ly drawn on the page and colored by hand. It-is the first time that such a thing has been attémpted since the days of Caxton. There are about 1200 initials Ma 2400 head and tall pieces, and no two through- out the entire 10 sets of 500 volumes are alike. To complete the designing and il- luminating for the edition 30 artists were required, working under the direction of three of the most eminent illustrators in the world: Helen Sinclair Patterson, Ella Grace Brown and Henri Padeloup of Hol- land. The Siustrations are drawn by a number of famous artists, including William Glack- ens, Orson Lowell, A. B. Wenszell, Walter Russell, Albert de Ford Pitney, E. Boyd Smith, Arthur I. Keller, Sidney L. Smith, Frederick Dielman, John Sloan and Albert Sterner. Every picture of the $50,000 edition Is original, and each volume contains from four to eight full-page illustrations, 11 drawn directly on the parchment. Of the full-page drawing throughout the set, about 400 are water-colors, while many of the marginals are pen and ink and water colors. There are also many character studies and hand-painted miniatures. Nvery initial letter and head and tail plece is ‘hand dec- orated and illuminated on the pages of parchment, and in many cases they are symbolical of some person or action de- scribed in the text. The translations were made by Mary Handford Ford and the introduction by Jules Claretie, a member of the Forty Im- mortals of the Ac demie Francais and lit- erary editor of the Figaro, who was a life- ‘long friend of De Mock.

The edition will require 60,000 sheets at @ cents a sheet, and there is not a sufficient quantity at the present time in the world to complete tne work. The parchment is all imported from England, and the mar- kets there have been scoured for the re- quired quality. While the manufacturers are turning it out as rapidly as possible; but as the process is a-long and tedious one, the whole contract cannot be filled for two years, Every sheet of parchment used is subject- ed to the most minute examination, and if a defect, not greater than a thin place the sige of a pinhead is found, the sheet is re- jected. At first much difficulty was experienced in printing on parchment, as this material contains so much oll that the ink will not retain its color, but the years of experi- menting have overcome this obstacle and a process has been: worked out that makes the task feasible. The fact that not for several hundred years has a set of books been printed on genuine parchment has made the undertaking practically a new proposition, and it therefore, been necessary to educate each person connect- ed with the work in all the details so as to secure the best results. The books are printed on the old-fash- ioned han Franklin style, and the forms run Trom % to d a volume, four pages to the form, and — one side of each sheet of, parchment is printed, the other side being left blank. .

FIGHT 80 SAVAGELY? Why Do They Like Red and Dislike Blue?-- Other Ant Questions. HY do ants fight each other so sav- W agely? Why do they like red and dislike blue? How iong can ants remembcr? Does the father or mother have more in- fluence in the nest? These four questions, which no scicntist has been able to answer, have recently been made clear for the firat time by Miss Adele M. Fielde of New York City, whose previous discoveries in connection with ant life were published in The 1 Post- Dispatch Magazine of Apri! Miss Fielde achieved a; chat ORES rep- utation among scientists Several! years ago as the inventor of what is called the “Fielde nest” for ants. These ts are made of glass, glued together, with wulf of coarse toweling. They are small and easily lifted from place to place, about 50 of them being kept by Miss Fielde for her experiments. Tt is Mise Fielde’s custom to spend every summer at the Marine Biological Labora- tory, at Wood's Holl, near Cape Cod, Mass. There she has every opportunity which sci- ence can give to study her tiny pets and their interesting ways. The results of her observations are given every fall to the “Academy of Natural Sei- ences,”” of which Mies Fielde is 4 memder. The accounts of her discoveries, which she made last summer, have been obtained from the Academy.“ and are here given to the public for the first time. Mystery nurober one, which Mise Fielde succeeded in meking clear, is the question which has before this time puzzled all stu- dents of ant life, ramely, why do ants fight one another, even members of thelr owa les? Seles’ Sedie's answer to this problem is that the ants of every vest have a peculiar odor, by which they recognize eagh other, and that this odor changes as they grow older. Thus two ants from different colonies, or two ants from the same colony, and that are six months apart in the matter of ages, will treat each other as strangers and deadly enemies. Miss Fielde took two groups of ants of the same age from an ant colony, Kees the tin her nest of glass and towel- o years, and then mixed them th the result that they treated in the most friendly manner ant was tried in a number ways proved that ents of und the same age will be er whether they have years or whether they e another before. rede put forty ants, all a a wid, in one of ner sst, and intro- duced, one at a time, other ants of @iffer- ent ages. An ant known to be a year old was put in, and at once was savagely at- tacked by five of the month-old inhabit- ants of the nest. This was tried again and again with the game results. It was found that the little creatures would not allow any more than four weeks older than themselves to in- trude into the nest. A few days difference in age was not noticed, but a month's dif- ference made total strangers and enemies ot ants that were children of the same queen mother. All ants me darker in color as they grow older. This fact has always been known, but Miss Fielde asserts that their odor also changes, and that ants which Are practically blind, recognize one another by their sense of smell. Tt has long been noticed that ants from the same colony, but from nests fifty feet ‘apart, will often meet on the most friendly terms, while a perpetual civil war will be between two nests that are only a inches apart. Miss Fielde’s answer is the only one yet given to this problem. In every case, she maintains, it is because there is a differ- ence of a month or more in their ages. Mystery number two—why do ants like red and dislike blue? Several years ago Sir John Lubbock dis- that ants disliked blue, but was a unable ta find out their reasons for doing 80. In this experiment Miss Fielde used a ‘nest, with a glass cover which could taken off easily. Over the nest she strips of colored giass, changing the colors frequently to notice the results, During the 8% days of the experiment the colored pieces af glass were changed % times. The result was that the ants moved 29 times under the red glass, 11 times under the green, 10 times under the orange, and not once under the blue. In very case when the blue glass was Praced over them they would scuttle away to some remote part of the nest. All ants have a natural hatred of the sunlight, and wefer darkness always; but Miss Ficide ‘ecovered that a family of ants would set- don quite comfortably under a roof red glass, and sometimes under green or nge. s two reasons given by Miss Fielde for choice of colors are as follows: , that the eye of the ant is so made t cannot tell the difference between lors that are darker than blue, the atve-lengthe of the red rays seeming the same as black. that blue suggested rain or wa- e ants, and thus made them anx- escape from it. Four times when de put the blue glass over the ants nt up their eggs and piled them top of the food heap, as if to keep them at of the wet. Tt was also proved that these tiny m- “ets, that spend the greater part of thei- "es total darkness, can at once ee yt that is white; for when Miez ld cut some bits of white Ford to the ne size as the eggs of the ants and "pred the little tmitation eggs in the t. were picked up by the ants and ‘lea for several steps before the fraud wr 11 3 is; Have ants a memory, long can they remember? fact about ants is that, it | other nationality 18 placed » they will hatch it out and r a ono of their own An they would flercely attack adopted child's relations. — jn her humor. center of attraction. eloquent gestures. will be placed in an American school. peculiar to infants. erage is not milk, but tea. girls are wild to trundle the lively babe. shops.

She took one of these adopted “foreigners,” that had been living for three weeks in one of the nests, and removed it for 88 days to a nest by itself. At the end of that time when it was put back it was received in the most friendly manner, as one of the fam- ily who had returned from a long journey. The same experiment was tried with an- other nest, and the adopted “foreigner” was kept away for 50 days, and received with great friendliness when placed back in its former nest. During the experiment other ants of the same kind as the adopted one were put in the nest and in every case attacked and driven out. ‘The two experiments thus clearly show that ants can remember one particular membef of their family for a period of at least 50 days, even when that member is by birth one of their natural enemies, Mystery No. 4 is the query? father or mother have most the ant home? This apparently unanswerable problem was solved by Miss Ficlde in a series of five experiments. She has proved not only that the mother is the most important member of the family, but that she alone decides all the family charactcristics. Five ant queens were taken and mated with kings fron? entirely different colonies, yet it was found in every case that the children were like the mothers, and willing to mix with one another on the most friendly terms. The king ants, so Miss Fielde says, are always the most stupid ante in the nest. “They are not clever,“ she says, “‘never follow a trail, never take part in the care of the young and are at all times depend- ent.“ Divorces are not frequent among these royal couples. The queens do the courting and proposing. “I have seen them show a marke@ preference or distike for certain Kings. says Miss Fielde, but having once mated they afterwad permit no close ap- preach of an alien king. Another fact, now first made known by her, is that while ants invariably live in nests and large colonies, they can, 79 — necessary. dwell alone. One ant was like hi Louis General Delivery.

The Trans-Siberian Railroad, built by the Russian government and wey 5 completed, is the long- est line of continuous railroad in ‘the world and stretches 6000 miles from Moscow to the Pacific ocean. It is a mistake to” suppose that this Siberian rallroad is inferior in point of construction. to any first-class American road. Taking George Kennan as an au- thority, the Siberian Railway is superior in equipment and in the smoothness of its roadbed to any railway in existence, whether American or European. At present its system of express service is poorly organized, and the 50-mile an hour average speed attained on American rail- roads is not known, except for short dis- tances, But the important fact to remember. is that the railway tracks are already laid between Hamburg and Vladivostok, a continuous line of 7500 miles, and that 18 now possible for American built locomo- tives. to cover the distance in six and a quarter days.

He gives to his work what time is necessary to do it, and divides the rest of his time between eat- ing, sleeping and fishing. Igaak Walton was a great fisherman. Some people regard him as the greatest fisherman. But Izaak was a mere bait heaver compared with William Griewold. Griswold is a fisherman whole heart and soul. He anticipates the fishing season as a child anticipates Christmas. He counts mis poles as a knight-errant counted his swords. He treasures his lines as a cow- boy prizes his ropes. In Griswold's ex- plana tion ot things, lead was made for - fish-line sinkers; cork was grown for fish- ing bobs; steel was provided for hooks, and the earth was enriched with tin that a at might have cans wherein to carry his In Griswold’s understanding of things, * is to fishing what powder is to war. r years Griswold has been studying ine problem of bait. He has tried every- thing from fancy files to spitting on a worm at midnight under a church steeple. Worms are the best bait. Griswold says 80. Not just any old worm, if you please, but thoroughbred, blue-blooded, aristocrat- ic 8 een on a worm farm, fattened coffee sour milk, and ke regi nes. ral pt indoors Griswold has two boxes and two tubs full of worms. There are 10,000 of them. If they should all get out of the yard at 617 Bt Joseph street, where Griswold lives, and crawl up Broadway, one close de- hind the other, they would make a string of Werms one mile long. That is a few In thors two tubs and two boxes are and about half as long. in six is full grown. You must take knows Addier, with his spots glowing like gems in af Kings crown. is to Griswold ‘more than a gold fish ripped off the roof of a Japunese temple; a big yellow gushong,g, with | whiskers like the greased mustache ofa French dancing master, is to Griswoid more than a 69-pound muskalong; a flat- headed, slit-eyed, black-skinned old mud cat is more to Griswold than an eighct- pound bass. The river is the place for catfish. The Mississippi river. It is the biggest river in the world. It has the biggest catfish in the world. One day in May, when the spring has come, you may find the man Griswold on the river bank. He has his poles and lines and hooks; he has his lunch. And he has hies worms. In a can? Not much. In two cans. Two kinds of worms. May be the fish are going to be particular. Maybe they will not want one worm when they will want another. Maybe the fattest old red worm on Griswold'’se worm farm can- not tempt one single catfish from the oozy depth's in which he lurks. Maybe a thor- oughbred blackhead, with the marks of aristocracy all over him, will fetch that same fish ashore in a jiffy. That is the secret of the two cans of worms. | On this fine May day there are fishermen alongshore all the way from the Chain ot Rocks to Jefferson Barracks. The day is filled with the splash of their casting. The whistling hand-line makes music like a caroling bird. The corks float like a great necklace} of black dlamonds around the neck of the shore. In the midst of the throng is the man Griswold. | He is not more skillful at cast- ing than some of the men at his side. He cannot put his hand-line so far and 80 true as some of the younger enthusiasts within sight of him. He has no. secret sorcery of spitting on his bait or fixing his cork unusually high or unusually low. But it is Griswold gets the flsh. Gris- wold is catching them when everybody else is hoisting the sign, Nothing doing.” Griswold has his fellow-fishermen continu- ally rushing along shore crying, Let's see him.“ Griswold hears people mutter- ing Lucky dog.“ “I'll fish where that fel- low's fishin’ next Sunday.“ “Why is it? Why. the worm farm. The worm farm /does the business. The worm farm knocks ‘the persimmon. F es of the Crawling Things... * * light on the science of fishing, even unto the dark pools a line’s-cast from shore. The worm farm beats all the patent hooks, all the silk lines, all she jointed poles and all the sweet anise o ever invented. On this certain Ma ay the sun hangs low, and the Jshermen pull in and wind up and start home. They throw their worm cans here and there. They care nothing for the worms left over. Why should they? They are only worms. Any- body can dig worms, any place, any time. So the worm cans whiz—all except Gris- wold’s. Griswold takes his cans home with him—his cans, his fish, his lines and his poles, and he is the boss fisherman in the bunch, with a smile as big as any fish on his string. When he gets back to the worm farm he carefully pours into the boxes and tubs the worms he had left. Then he goes into the house and brings out some coffee grounds and some sour milk. The coffee grounds he sprin- kles over the worms. The sour milk he pours over the worms. These things are the worms’ supper They have had a hard day's work. All day they have been in the cans down on the river bank. Now they are to be fed and to have the liberty of the box. The worms eat the coffee and drink the milk. When they eat the coffee they raise their heads as though their in- visible mouths were under the head, like the mouth of a shark. And that is just where they are. Griswold says so. He knows. He has watched the worms feed for years. He can go out to the boxes and tubs any time and, bring hundreds of worms to the surface by simply casting coffee grounds on the dirt. The worms dearly love coffee. The old fellows especially delight in it. They all thrive om it. Funny thing that Gris wold should have discovered that the worms like coffee; but he discovered it. He also found out that they Uke sour milk and greasy dish water. He gives them some every day. Just now, if vou go to the worm farm, „vou will see no worms in the yard. They are all indoors. The worm is sensitive to cold, Griswold says so. He knows. He raises thousands of worms. So when winter comes he takes them into the house. He keeps the dirt damp, and gives the worms food. That is all they need. With this sim- ple care taking they thrive and wax fat and humerous, and when the drouth comes and no other fisherman around him can find worms, dug he never so deep, Griswold has thousands of them. BY WILLIAM GRISWOLD. I DO NOT raise worms for profit. I simply do it for my own fishing. I give my friends a great many worms, but I never sell any. | : There are four kinds of worms around St. Louls. The blackhead is the big fellow with the dark body and the black head. He is the best fish bait. He is found in gar- dens more than any place else. | The red worm is found around barns. He is the most common of our earth worms. MIN ST.

By the Manager of Hamilton-Brown Shoe Co. HE Hamillton-Brown Shoe Co., employs T nearly 2500 persons. In this factory our employes number 1660. The fac- tory at Ninth and Marion streets carries nearly 1000 hands. At 246 Randolph street there are 600 more persons employed, and at Twelfth and Washington avenue, the employes number 80. With such an enor- mous force to handle, it is of the utmost importance that we enforce a rigid rule as to promptnets in working time. At 7 o'clock in the morning our doors are c’osed against late-comers. None are admitted to work untill afternoon, thereby causing the tardy ones to lose a half day's wage, no matter what the excuse might be for the delay. Sometimes, when a number say, from 15 to 20 arrive in a bunch, claiming that they have been delayed by a street car accident or track obstruction, we sallow them to come in and go to work. In that ease they generally live in the same vi- cinity and were delayed by the same car. But we deduct the time thus lost from their pay pro rata. In the case of an employe earning 8 a day, the loss is by no means mall, it the delay has been considerable. We are obliged to do this. for we lose our labor, and in a shoe factory there is more of a lores involved than appears on the surface. Idlencss of one machine causes idleness or delay right along a set of other ma- chines that receive piece work as it pro- gresses from one stage to another, if W hands out of 1650 are late fifteen minutes a day, we lose 30 minutes, or 5 working hours, If o employes, are late in every one of our factories, a multiplication by 3 win net a loss of 15 working hours in a day.

We pay for that time, and we expect to get what is due us. We have a time-clock and every one of our 215 «mployes must register upon arri- val in the morning, upon going out for dinner, coming in from dinner, and upon going home at night. By this way, it might be interesting to know that it takes just exactly 6 minutes for our 215 people to give in their time in the evening and leave the store. In view of this fact, it has always seemed strange to me that it takes so long to clear a burning building of its inmates. But, back to the subject matter. The motto of Mr. E. C. Sommons, the founder of the Simmons Hardware Co., is: “Procrastination is the thief of time, and the recruiting officer for perdition.“ I have been brought up in this estabiish- ment under the shadow of this motto, and I expect and get promptness from the em- ployes of this house. Excuses about being delayed by street cars don't go. I keep a record of every man’s time, and at the end of the year I can tell to the minute, just how much time he has lost. Some men are never late.

CHARLES AUGUST NUSSBAUM of 1911 North Twelfth street, St. Louis, was for four years the private tutor of the two Austrian archdukes who are said to ba ve sacrificed their chances for ‘the throne with their ex- treme wildness-and moral degeneracy, For four years the pastor of the First German Church of the New Jerusalem in St. Louis “raised” the little Archdukes Francis Ferdinand and Otto, who can never be emperors, reports insist, because they are so bad the people of Austria would not permit them to rule. Rev. Nussbaum is quite astounded that his little pupils, who are of thet same unfortunate house of Hapsburg which gave the world the Princess of Saxony scan- Aal but a few days ago, should have become such undeserving men as they are said to be. They were fine little boys. | Perhaps the St. Louis minister who was their tutor throws some light upon the were properly educated, and it was his duty to punish them if they did not behave. The strictest discpline is observed. In addition to the officer, who is almost his constant companion, the royal boy has a tutor for every language. He must first learn English, French, Italian, Hungarian and Bohemian, besides the various dialects. These are the Czéch, Polish, Ruthenian, Roumanian, Slavonian, Servian, Croatian and Slovak, There are 19 legislative assemblies in the dual monarchy, and the future Emperor- King must be acquainted with the political affaires debated in all of them. He must be an expert in diplomacy, in jurisprudence, in administrative government, in commer- celal matters, in sociology and so forth. The task of acquiring all these varied ac- complishments is laborious in the extreme. The boy rises at 5 every morning, and begins his studies at 6. After two hours’ work with one of his many tutors, he takes an interval for breakfast and goes back to his books from 9 tim 12 o’cleck. Lunch is taken at noon, and from 1 till 3 in the afternoon he performs military drill, which consists of riding, fencing. gymnastics, marching, sword drill, revolver drill and trench digging. Studies are re- sumed at 4:30, and continue till 6 p. m.. which is the dinner hour. After dinner he spends an hour with his mother at play, and goes back to his books for another hour before retiring to rest punctually at 9 o'clock. these two boys were f i 11 FE of scholars. „ the Wnglieh tuter of Christina. — the — of Spain. and ak * Twice a week he attends lectures on sel- years Queen Regent, and her ence at the Schotten High School, in order Mr. Nussbaum'’s father was the 1 that he may see something of life at a public school. But he has none of the fun. He goes solemnly in the court equipage with his tutor, and with detectives in plain clothes swarming about—for his life is vai uable. He sits in the front row with the other pupils, but is permitted to have prac- tically no intercourse with them. His brief holidays are spent in journeys of study and investigation to all parts of Austria-Hungary, and to foreign countries under the supervision of his tutors.

They were always Full of fun, as all boys are, but they were always courteous, even to the humblest peasant we might meet. Three times a week I took dinner with the family. at which time the conversation was restricted to French, and at those times the boys were always well behaved. The royal faniily of Austria is very Ub- eral in ite views. I am, as all were aware, a native of a republic and a Protestant. The family of, Hapsburg is the top of im- perialism, and Catholic. But when I gave the boys their daily lessons there was never anyone around to see whether I taught them republican ideas, nor was I ever questioned about my religious belief, Of course the boys had their personal re- ligious instructor. I am inclined to the belief that if the boys are as wiid as they now say they are, it is due to the reaction that is quite like- ly to follow years of such a severe life as of the Unfortunate House of the Hapsburgs. or any boy who is likely to Inherit it. I know nothing about young Karl, but I have no doubt that he is being ingtructed much after the fashion of the young arch- dukes whom I helped to educate. I will say this: My observation leads me to believe that the. Hapsburgs are not the They are easy-going, and easily influenced. They lack moral stamina, but no kinder- or otherwise.

He was suffering from a lung complaint and withdrew entirely from public life for sev- eral years, during which he was cured of his disease in an almost miraculous way.

Arthur McGray, former navigating officer of the steamship St. Louis. This experienced navigator and student of Arctic exploration proposes that a of ten vessels, built by and named for American millionaires, and kept in con- + @tant communication by wireless telegraphy, shall line up thirty miles apart and em- 3. late the Fram’s drift with the po.ar ice. When the one of these ships in the most _ direet line with the pole shall reach the nearest drifting point to the pole, a picked *@xpedition from the ships nearest shall make a dash over the land that intervenes. 12 The plan, which is the most exhaustive of any ever proposed for reaching the de- _ ‘sired point, is fully set forth by its author in the current number of the National 8 the details of the plan, Capt.

Or, briefly, a sufi force to keep pushing supplies forw ‘ly in such quan- titles and to s would relieve the main, or jon of the ex- pedition, from batever as to food, and fro of perform- ing any extra 1 labor, thus keeping it free ship and fa- : highest de- ific obser-, * WAY TO REACH THE vation upon arr'ving at 90 degrees. 2. By the organization of an expedition, consisting of 10 small vessels similar to the Fram, and placing them systematically in the icepack, north of Bennett Island, 30 miles apart, ast and west. and from thence to be carried northward with ice- drift, on the lines laid down by De Long, and proven practicable by Nansen. The first proposition could probably be accomplished successfully, if the weather conditions were favorable to holding to- gether the icepack north of Franz Joseph Land; but if the winds should continue for any length of-time from the northward, wide lanes would open everywhere, prog- ress would be slow, and communication with the base of supplies dangerously in- terfered with, or perhaps entirely cut off. The second proposition is the only one that seems to assure certain success. It is a long, tedious and expensive experi- ment to prove this by sending out one little Fram at a time, and perhaps no two times would the drift be exactly the same, al- though starting from the same point, for the movement of the ice is always affected by the wind continulng for any length of time from one quarter. Therefore, we say that any independent expedition which sets out for the pole has almost no chance whatever of reaching there. It is only by concerted, harmonious action between ten or a dozen vessels, es- pecially fonstructed for the purpose, that the swift and certain discovery of the pole is possible. Naturally, the first requirement for the organization of such an expedition is to seeure the necessary capital to build and equip these vessels. But this should not be difficult in this age of colossal fortunes, mostly in the hands of willing patrons of ecience and research. From time to time during the past two centuries {when im- mense fortunes were in the hands of only a few) individuals have come forward and volunteered the funds for the equipment and maintenance ef such expeditions, and that In a time when the most enthusiastic hardly dared regard the discovery of the pole as more than a remote possibility. Now that reaching the north terminal of the terrestial axis is a foregone conclusion, we believe the financial responsibility wili meet with cheerful and abundant response. We even feel inclined to offer the opinion that ten gentlemen will readily come for- ward with an offer each .to bear one-tenth of the entire expense, in consideration of each. having the privilege of. christening one of the ships with his own name; and we further venture that universal interest would center in so novel and exciting a race, if so indeed it might be termed. The expense to each would not exceed $150,000 to $175,000. In fact, the Fram expedition cost but $120,000, which included the wages of the men and the insurance premium on their lives. But along with this twentieth cen- tury expedition, more elaborate equipment would be brought into play, although every vessel would be an exact duplicate of all the others in construction, power and fin- ishings. None must enjoy any advantage over the others, and each patron should not only have the privilege of naming one ship, but its commander also, and would be entitled to place a representative on board to keep a record of the voyage for the owner's private information, and pos- sibly for his library shelves. No better general lines of preparation could be suggested than those followed by James Gordon Bennett in fitting out the Jeannette. The whole matter of construc- tion, equipment and personnel should be placed in the hand of a naval commission, of which the secretary of the navy should be the chairman. Every feature of the expedition would necessarily be submitted to this body for approval. Upon the com- mander of each vessel should be conferred special power for the government and dis- cipline of his ship; the same as those given De Long by the then secretary of the navy. A commodore should accompany the fleet, invested with power to shift his flag at will from one vessel to the other. There are quite a number of experienced men who would, we think, cheerfully offer to be drawn upon for va uable suggestions and advice respecting the ¢«quipment of the various departments into which such ex- peditions must be divided. Melville, Nam sen, Lord Kelvin and many others gould be mentioned among their number. NO — Now that we have theoretically disposed of the finance, equipment and personne), we are ready for the start. While all the foregoing has been in progress, another important function pertaining to the ex- pedition must have been accomplished. Whether the expedition sets out via Bering Strait or the Kara Sea, or both, two or more powerful ice breaking steamers wil! be required and coal depots must be estab- lished at a practicable point on either route to insure the unfailing accomplishment of the part these must play in the ultimate success of the undertaking. The coal ves- sels should be sent well north before the main expedition starts, but not so far as to become ice bound or inaccessable to the ice breakers. There they would await the “coming of the fleet.“ Small war vessels, gunboats or training ships could easily be made available for towing the Frams of our expedition so far north as consistent with safety. Here the expedition vessels would require assistance, because it is not practicable to employ great power in ves- sels of this class, for power means coal or ofl, and the space for this is limited. Of course the power must be a nominal fea- ture. Both the Russian and Canadian govern- ments own herculanean ice breaking steam- ers. The Russian ship is the more power- ful, being used to keep open the harbor of Viadivostock, while the Canadian carries the winter mal's in the Gui of St. Las- rence, often steaming through four feet of solid ice. But it is not our expectation that these ships will undertake solid ice naviga- tion in either the sea of Kara or Nordens- kjold. Their function / is to tow our fleet, assisted by their own power, and place them 30 miles apart as far north as steam po@er can penetrate, between the longi- tude of 140 and 155 east. The approximate position of these vessels would be along a Une drawn from Cape Chelyuskin on the Talmur peninsula to Cape Prince of Wales in Alaska, ‘and the 300 miles stretch they would occupy would be bounded on the west by a line drawn from Sauntkof Land to the pole and on the east by another drawn to the same point from Bennett land. To be more exact, these lines to the vole should be drawn from tee eastern RTH POLE. portion ot both the lands mentioned. almost certain that the vessels fart west on the main line would attain higher latitude before becoming thoroughly ice locked than these at the eastern outset, on account of being nearer the more open western edge of the polar ice pack. Now that our 10 little explorers are all fast in the ice for the next three or four years, the ice-breakers, having accom- homeward, and if necessary tow the ft empty colliers to clear open water, from which they can make their own way home. Wireless adieus, good wishes and mes- sages to friends at home are signaled day after day from each of the ice bound ships to the retreating steamers, for each ves- sel is fully equipped with apparatus of a least 200 miles range. One by one ping of the instruments becomes til the last message is received homeward bound crafts. When will the next one be received? Perhaps a year hence, when may go north again, and far Wilczek Land pick up communication F 5 ? 388 2 : 15 314 f i kr i: fe 1. 8 1J—CAPT.

It is just cold enough to lower the hot fever of the sand. The life of the desert has an awakening. The things with four feet run faster now, and the things with wings fly more. This is what old Barnum is roaring about in St. Louls. He looks from his cage up at 3300 Locust street and sniffs the sting of the winter. He is cold when the watchman does not keep the big stove red hot. He yearns for his Great Sahara. Barnum is a very large and very beauti- ful lion. He has a massive head and a great golden mane. He is a picture. He was born on the world's greatest des- ert. He lived there through his cubhood, and he made but one mistake in the mat- ter of his self-preservation. But that mis- take cost him his liberty and his long sea voyage and sojourn abroad. Today Barnum ought to be out on the Sahara, with a lair of his own, a kill of his own and a means of doing his will. He ought to be making every other creature around his particular oasis quake with fear at every flirt of his tall. He ought to be exchanging roars with other big lions as much as five and ten miles away, But, alas! He Ka captive in St. Louis. That is what he is roaring about. There are just 26 other lions besides Bar- num in the Ferari winter quarters out at 3300 Locust street. Every one of them is roaring about his or her hard luck. Every one of them yearns for the old country, the beautiful, iliimitable Sahara, where a lion may live as he will. | THE JABBERING JAGUARS. De Dinner!

Any old day when a couple of healthy cats like us can't chew a Jog up.” The two jaguars paced to and fro, to and fro, in. their narrow cage.. They were in a bad humor. There are no good-natured jaguars. In the cages alongside them were young lions. One cage of them were 2 years oli, and the other less than 2 years. They looked like great big calves, very wobbly in the legs. They have but one object in life, and that is to have as much patience as possible. between meals. “Just to think,“ one of the jaguars ex- claimed, addressing the young lions; Fer- ari buys 500 pounds of beef a day from Armour for the animals in this barn. Of those 500 pounds the lions and pumas get all but two pounds. The two pounds are what the jaguars get.“ The young lions were not interested in the jaguar’s complaint. But the fact about the 500 pounds of beef was ‘interesting. They began racing and hopping about in their cages, shouting in concert: „Five hundred pounds! Five hundred pounds! Every single day he gets 500 pounds! ENTER D'os TRA. T IS 10 o'clock in the morning when | Capt. Fred d'Ostra, trainer to the Fer- ari show, walks across Locust street from the south side and goes into the big barn which is the Ferari winter quarters. D’Ostra is short and spry. He is smooth- faced; wears a blue cup and has a firm look around the mouth. Dinka, the man who boxes the kangaroos, meet the trainer at the door. “Geod morning, Dinks. How are the brute#?"’ „Fine and dJaisy, captain.“ D'ostra lifts a loose flap on the canvas tops turned down and in. Into this cage hurfies D'Ostra. He is there for business. He fastens the gate and opens the gates leading into the cages of seven of the lions. “Everybody out!“ D'ostra has his pistol and whip in hand by the time the first lion is out. The lag- gards he punches up with a sharp iron. While D’Ostra is doing this, one of his assistants ie climbing into a cage in whichl¥ there are three lonesses. He sim- ply gets ih and stands there, a sharp iron in each hand. The Hons run at him and feel the point of the fron. Then they stay in their end of the cage. The man stands there an hour and a half. His work is to accustom the ons to having a man in thé cage with them. It is necessary to give them a year of this work before it Is safe to turn them out into the open arena for training. D'Ostra has a group of pedestals which his Mons must sit upon. He works pati ently, but sternly, with them. They are never permitted to have their way. In the smallest thing the trainer must have his way. If Wallace goes up on his pedestal and insists upon standing up instead of squatting down, the show stops there until the stubbornness of the lion has been overcome. Sometimes D’Ostra has accom- plished his point with patience. Generally he does it with his whip. Infrequently he fires the pistol point blank in the lion’s face. This fetches them. They have a hor- ror of fire. The bravest 2 is cowed by a little blank cartridge. A flashlight for a photograph simply horrifies them. Every day D'Ostra puts his lions through a couple of» hours of training... He even makes them run and jump over each other. A on can jump if he wants to. Big and heavy as he is, he can bound like a cat. D’Ostra considers it possible for a lion to do anything a trained dog can do, andj At the ground it was 90 feet in circumfeéer-. Jence, and eight feet up li measured 62 feet, he makes them do it. He does his trair barrows heaped with raw beef appear in the winter quartcrs and let Beclam loose. Redlam consists of big lions roaring and struggling for the front place in the cage; little Hons squealing and suffering pite- ously to get their white fangs on the real thing; crazy pumas snarling Uke the great cats that they are; wonderfully agile jaguars leaping from side to side of their cage simply frothing at the mouth for a taste of food, You would think to see them that Ferari never feeds the animals You would think the little cub lions had not tasted food in forty days. You would be sure that jaguars had been living on love ever since the show went into winter quarters in St. Louis. One Angle bone in their two years of life would be your guess on the food supply for the overgrown young lions. But appearances are very deceiving. The Ferari animals are sleek and fat. They are fed all they need every day. They get away with 500 pownds of raw beef seven times a week. To be fighting, roaring. crazy mad at the sight of flesh is the nature of the brute. They all do it.. Even the dignified old male lions, with their picturesque heads and golden manes, are so many loons when the meat barrow is wheeled in, The feeding is done with forks. The anti- mals are all in their cages, just as you see them in the show. They are kept there all winter, only going out when they are taken into the training arena. The great hunks of meat are carried up to the cages, and the animals fasten, their claws on them and drag them thro in a jiffy. When each one of them has a piece of meat they are comparatively quiet. There are growls and hoarse grumbles here and there, but there is no more hopping about and roaring. All the carnivorous animals eat alike, just as a cat and dog eat alike, with the food down under the paws and the creature flat down on its stomach. First sight of the meat brings the noisi- est of the 24 hours in the animal winter quarters. The next noisiest hour is that 4 * r 1 BIG TREE'S H nia dig tree,” Du years old, is used. for à unique purposs at the New York Museum of Natural History.

A NEW WARD MALLISTER FROM THE TENEMENTS? NEW Ward McAllister for St. Louis’ Four Hundred may be developed through the social settlement work of Miss Eleanor Niedringhaus of 4532 Lindell boulevard, begun at Niedringhaus Memoria) Hall, Seventh street and Cass avenue. Miss Niedringhaus proposes to instruct the girls and boys of the tenements in the social usages of the exclusive West End set to which she belongs. She will do this by means of luncheons and receptions that are to be graced by the presence of Miss Niedringhaus’ society friends. A wonderful work this wealthy and talented young woman has undertaken. And yet to her it seems the most natural thing in the world that she should en- gage in it. Perhaps she is but following the trend of her deeply religious home “training, and the impetus given it at Ogontz, the school for girls in the former home of Jay Cook, near Philadelphia. This schoo! tries to find for its graduates purpose in living. It leans a little toward sociology. of social settlement and in New York ‘ NVESTIGATION work jin London increased an interest already well de- members of the family. Boys’ and girls’ clubs were established last spring on Miss Niedringhaus’ return from New York, where she went to prepare for her work. By MISS ELEANOR NIEDRING- HAUS of the Niedringhaus Memorial Social Settlement. my father. And I might never have gone into it at all but for a hint from Dr. Dor- chester, our pastor. It is not at all uncommon for wel)-born, well-bred girls to give of their time and talents fcr the uplifting of those less fortu- nate. Not much is said about it, perhaps, but there isa great deal of practical work done. Society girls and society young men have beon very kind in offering to help en- tertain and instruct my boys and girls at Seventh street and Cass avenue. They have volunteered co sing for them, to play for them and to talk to them, and eventually I mean to have them as guests at some of the teas and recepticns that make a part of the social discipline. The first step of the settkement work is to get the boys and giris off the street and provide a better meeting place for them than the street corner or the saloon hall dance. We mean to reach every member of the family, to bring the mothers and fathers int» touch with wholesome liv- ing. The modern theery of home missionary werk is that you must scclalize before you ean Christianize. The Rev. Dr. Dorchester had been watching the missionary work of the Isabel Crow Kindergarten Association. It was in discussing the desirability of this sort of work in the district in which the ) j Niedringhaus Memorial Mission is situated that the hint came, out of which grew my soctal settlement. Miss Lucretia Park and I are undertak- ing to manage a girls’ club We expect soon to organige a mothers’ club. We shall take up music in the homes, home hygiene, the games that children should play and the story boks that children should read. When the children finish the kindergarten we shall teach them the classic myths. Children are essentially mythological. Ev- erything in nature is a personality to them. They are in the symbolic stage. Monday night we have the boys’ military drin and the practice of the drum corps. The drill is conducted by Mr. Leonard and Tuesday night the club meets.

If there is the slightest tendency to nat- ural waviness three-quarters of an hour (or even less) is long enough for the hair to remain iu the ping. — * . “The uncomfortable. sensation of trying to sleep while hard knobs are pressing in- to the temple is thus avoided, and the fluffiness is lighter and prettier than that produced by the irons. ; It is well to emember that neither trons nor hatrpins 1 willgeffectively wave the hair unless it is kept in cleanly condition and free from oilliness. The expert hairdresser told me of a pow. der which up-to-date women are using as an aid to fluffy loveliness of ‘their tresses. It Is manufactured in different shades for brown hair, black hair, red hair, golden hair, and gray hair. Brushed well into and then well out of a woman’s long locks, this powder cleanses and softens and lightens them while at the same time brightening their natural color. . After the hair is waved (by whatever pro- cess) the really artistic work of dressing it begins. All the front part is gathered up and held with one hand while the other hand presses a comb lightly through it till each sepa- rate strand is smoothly in its place. There should be no unsightly buigings ly around in the hair or else fall out and suits every variety of face, ot the undernsath ‘strands, "no overlapping or uneven partings of the strands that lie on top. The knack of gathering up the hair shoyld be practiced till the amateur hairdresser is perfect in it. It is really more than half the secret of successful and becoming. hairdressing. Once the hair is smoothly gathered up to the correct height on the head the di- viding into three parts for the pompadour is easily accomplished. The addition of a light “pompadour roll” is necessary if thé front hair is scanty or thin, Bach of the three parts is rolled sepa- rately over the fingers in pompadour style A and then fastened accurately in place. the e hairdresser so rarely feels as- +5] braids two or three inches vf it. will Drawing, ts braid to the side of the tains the head he is at the moment arranging, he in- serts the comb or big shell hairpin which tion, | : : q | for the face of womat That which fastens thus finds something and the liberty — es to fasten’ to, and combs and pins which ment of the loose fron under ordinary treatment, “‘wabble” loose- easy to arrange the pompal get lost, are all kept firmly in . ä 7 be > - Ea CFR us - : ah 7 ö 4 8 a. zt 1 1 1 * 4 * wy . ; * r N dae > ey * ye 1 ; 22 4 ‘ They are next colled over each rope fashion.

THE POS . 1 ‘ itrange Questions Asked and Queer Informa- - tlon Sought by St. Louis Patrons. ' ‘HE information bureau of the St. Louis Postoffice, is without duplicate in any of the first-class postoffices of the country, te In other cities the information’ bureau merely supplies information rela- tive to the letter mails and closes with the close of the day’s business. The St. Louis fiformation bureau is the central office of the postoffice, It never ‘choses. After the various other postal departments have shut down for the day it takes up) their work and carries it forward. It is possible to buy stamps or money orders or register a letter. or get mail at the information bureau at any time of the night or on Sunday. Afd if one has a money order or notification of the coming of a registered letter and can make his or her identification positive the the registered letter. nr information 8 openea on the oming into office of Post- a" master Baumhof It has proved A great convenience to the working public to de able to transact postal business after Working hours, Dy F.

Previous to the qpening gf a night office persons who could not get to the postoffice during business hours, were forced to send money by express. Many persons cannot get to the office until after 6 o'clock. The night office is a great convenience to them. Some queer questions are asked ot the information bureau. A business man tang up the telephone and asked us if :t were raining in Chicago. A great many persons come into the post- office under the impression that they are in the Century building. It is quite cus- tomery to ask where business houses are Aocated, and what time passenger trains go out. We know about trains carrying mall. but it takes time to look up passenger trains, of which carry no mail. But we sive the information.
