Two serious wounds, one on the neck and another on the hip, and many cuts and bruises covering the entire body, are the results to the game -}ad. As George Hoffman, a steonemason. work- ing near where the attack occurred, tells it, the Zeigenfuss boy was wa‘king alonng Union street near North street wutching a pack of five dogs that were running down the street toward him. z Suddenly the pack swerved in their course, and an instant later the lad was in the midst of the howling, vicious ani- mals. They came at him like hungry wolves. For an instant the lad was panic- stricken, but his peril made him brave, and when assistance came he was fighting desperately for his life, with feet and hands. Even the assistance of Hoffman, who ran to the spot as soon as the attack occurred, and that of James Mann, a nearby grocer, availed nothing. The dogs were frantic in their vicilousness, and their entire atten- tion was centered on the lad. Belaboring them with sticks picked up by the rescuers did not turn their attention, and the lad might as well have struggled alone. Blew Off the Head of One of the Dogs. Seeing that their efforts were fruitless, Mr. Mann ran back to get a shotgun, and, after watching a moment, found an oppor- tunity to ‘place the gun close to the head of one of the dogs and fire without endan- gering the boy. The heavy cliarge of shot almost be- headed the animal, and the other dogs, taking fright at the report, fied from the Scene as suddenly as they had attacked the lad. The boy was picked u His clothing was jtorn from him and his limbs and body covered with his own blood and that of the dog which had been shot. He was taken to the home of his parents, Mr. pal Mirs. Wiliam Zeigenfuss, 1216 German street, and given medica] atten- tion. Aside from the two serious wounds. lad’s body is covered with cuts and bruises, and serigus results are feared. The witnesses and rescuers say that the lad undoubtedly owes his life to his own gameness and that he would have been that had not help arrived. The dogs were mongrels, which had been running about the streets. The explanation of their concerted attack Is that one started for the boy and the others joined in the attack.

BIG TURF SCANDAL IS Respect to His Course, Special dispatches from authority of a high officia] in the postoffice department that George A. removed as chief postoffice inspector of the St. Louis division. retirement of Mr. service, with which ed for many years. is not intimated. Mr. Dice's St. Louis friends say that if he is removed it will be to make him the scapegoat for the department in the turf investment scandal. ; No particular reason is assigned for the reported change, but it is assumed that the recent work of the St. Louis office is not at all satisfactory to the heads of the postoffice department. Again Mr. Dice's published statements to he has been connect- the effect that he had recommeded ac- tion against turf investment companies and his recommendations were not ap- proved, has not escaped the observation of the Washington authorities. The positive announcement is made in Washington that the only inquiry into the nature of these ‘‘get-rich-quick’’ concerns Was prompted and prosecuted from that end. At the instance of his superiors, Dice, so the Washington authorities state, pit his inspectors at work on the turf invest.« ment schemes, aré“tie: t which fol- lowed on Noy. 26 last, contained no sug- gestions that a fraud order be issued and no evidence upon which such an order could be based. Called On for Explanation. 3 | In this connection it may be stated that Mr. Dice has been called upon. officially to explain just what claims he has made with respect to any course he may have taken to suppress the fraudulent investment companies which relieved so many people in St. Louis and throughout the country of money. Another matter which the department is said to hold against Dice is that con- cerning the placing of his two sons in the St. Louis postal service. It is urged. that this action, while no infraction of postal regulations, is indiscreet, inasmuch as the chief postoffice inspector has constant dealings with the postmaster and those under him. When this of Postmaster-General - matter was broached to one Payne's assistants in Wasninpgton yesterday, he said: “| do not anticipate any immediate action against Mr. Dice. Something may, however, occur later.’ The con¢lusion, is drawn that the depart- ment will take up the issue with Dice as soon as the Case of Postmaster Baumhot is settled, which will probably not be for three or four weeks.

Challenge Him. Special to the Post-Dispatch. “PITTSBURG, Pa., Feb. 21.—Dr. Ellis 8. Duncan, superintendent of the city hos- pital of Louisville, Ky., was acquitted today of the charge of shooting Bruce Head. The verdict was the result of sympa- thy for the defendant. The shooting was admitted, but the jurors thought -Dun- can had sufficient cause for the act. Many wild rumors are going about since the close of the trial. At first it was reported that Dr. ‘Dun- can would immediately begin an action for divorce, and that Head and Mrs. Dun- can would be married. Now that Duncan has been acquitted, it is reported that he will at once chal- lenge Head to a duel. Regarding the duel story, Dr. said that he knew nothing of ft. “T intend to return to Louisville at once,’ he said. “and resume my duties there. I will also try to forget the unfortunate cir- cumstances which lead to the ruining of my home. I have had enough of notoriety, and hope to spend the remainder of my days in quiet.” When Head was asked about the story that a duel was probable, he said he had received no challenge, but that he would not run away from one. Regarding the story that he was to mar- ry Mrs. Duncan as soon as she could, se- eure a divoree from her present husband, Head said: “tT have no dntention of marrying Mrs. Dunean, or any one else, for that matter. “No, I co not think I shall marry Mrs. Duncan.”’ ‘ It is rumored that Head is engaged to marry a Pittsburg. woman, but he also re- fused to discuss this report. When the verdict in the case was brought in. the court was crowded, the principals nor their attorneys was not in. When the clerk read the finding of the Duncan jury, there was loud cheering, which showed how the audiente appreciated the verdict. Dr. Duncan received hundreds of callers this afternoon. Many of them were total gation. I approved the reporit.at once and torwarded it to the office of the assistant attorney-general for the postoffice once el ment.

DETROIT, Mich., Feb. 21.—Kx-Convict years for forgery. save to show the manner of man he is. Navin was born in Adrian, where he ob- tained a common school education and olic church. He wads intended for the priesthood, and spent some time in a sem- inary at Milwaukee preparing for that pro- turned to Adrian. After working for the Lake Shore Rail- way for a time, Navin studied law and practiced in Adrian. He soon. established a large business, becoming enerally pop- ular, but especially with the Irish. He became interested in a lung pad concern, which was reputed to do a iarge business, and he was said to be very successful in pages winning propositions in grain deals. ie spent money freely, bought a handsome home for his parents at a cost of $25,000 or $30,000 and expended large sums on the family. He lived in bachelor apartments down town, where he frequently enter- tained, by this means adding to his pop- ularity end influence. In 1881, when but 26 years of age, Navin was elected mayor of his home city and became known as the Kid Mayor of Adrian. His election platform advocated extensive improvements for the city, among which was a project for the establishment of waterworks, for which the citizens voted to issue $150,000 of 6 per cent bonds, but their issue was never authorized by the city council. arly in February, 1882, inquiries reached the city from an eastern insurance com- pany asking if the Adrian water bonds were genuine. This brought inquiries by the officials and citizens, and it was learned that a New York trust ‘company had nege- tiated the sale of these bonds, which were signed by T. J. Navin as mayor and Fran- cis Stanton recorder. The latter said Na- vin had brought 75 city bonds to him on Feb. 2, og that the council would au- thorize their issue at its next meeting and he had sigtwed them. The question then arose as to how the re- corder’s name became attached to the other 75 bonds and to certain documents sent to eastern firms and which convinced the brokers and prospective buyers that the bonds were genuine and their issue au- thorized. As a result of the exposure, Navin left Adrian quietly, and within five hours after his d rture an express package contain- ing 000 reached Adrian addressed to him. This was the first remittance of pur- chase money of the bonds, so that none reached Navin’s hands. Within a week after Navins’ departure it was found that for about five years back he had been regularly enangee in head go mortgages on real estate. hese were al- ways on good unincumbered property of sulstentiar individua!s, who were mostly among Navins’ clients and might be ex- pected to go to him for ee assistance. The mortgages were sold to E. L. Clark, a reputed millionaire of Adrian, and after his death to hig executors. The total area of land covered by these blanke's is al- leged to have been no less than 7100 acres and the amount of money raised is averred to have been . Payments of interest were kept up in such a manner as to arouse no suspic! of the genuineness of the securities. Navin was away from Adrian for three years. He is reported to have established a flourishing business in New Mexico under an assum name and to have abandoned it after being recognized. After thi: he built up a big law business at some point in Washington Territor News of h's whereabouts reached A fan and Navin left Washington Territory, going down the coast to San Francisco, and thence to New Orleans, where he was arrested on March 22, 1885. on the charge of forgin _ a mort- age for $4000 on property owned by John Monaghan and selling it to the Clark estate.

WALNUT HILL, Ill, Feb. 21.—Two un- identified hunters have unintentionally Caused the residents of the region a few miles south of this town a great deal of alarm for a week. Snowbound, frozen in by the sudden co'd snap, unable to continue their journey toward the Mississ ppi- river bottoms to hunt ducks, the young men have found themselves playing star parts as Bill Rudolph and Fred Lewis, the Union Bank robbers. They disappeared Friday afternoon when the weather moderated, and Sheriff Sam Howe and his posses, who started hot upon the trail, have learned enough to convince them that the strangers are not Rudolph and Lewis. last Monday the young men first ap- peared in the ne'ghborhood. They called at the farmhouse of Plen Baldridge, three miles from Walnut Hill, and politely re- quested that dinner be served to them. Both Were armed with shotguns. One of the young men entered the house first, and the other remained outside. Mrs. Baldridge prepared dinner for the men, which they ate and paid for. A daugh- ter of the Boldridges had saved a copy of the picture of Rudolph and Lew's, pub- lished in the Post-Dispatch. When the Visitors departed, she brought forth the picture and said to her parents: “That young man that came in first, was Rudolph. I know it. He looks just like this picture. See—he is smooth-faced.” Mother Was Sure He Was Rudolph. “Of course he's Rudolph,” assented Mr. Baldridge. “Anybody could see that”’ “Beyond peradventure,’’ echoed Mrs. Baldridge. ‘“‘And they both carried guns. They were armed. So were Rudolph and Lewis. They must be Rudolph and Lewis.” The news sprena tae wildfire.

PARIS, Feb. 21.—The Humberts scored their first notable success today, when the ninth correctional chamber announced their acquittal in the libel suit brought against them by M. Cattaul, the banker. Public interest in the result was very eat and the courtroom was surrounded y an eager crowd. The costs of the prosecution were as- sessed against M. Cattaui. The court delivered a a ‘lengthy jud ent, the main point of which was that eke evi: dence had failed to show bad faith on the Humberts in charging M. Cattaui with usury.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 21.—The death of Father Aloisius Bosch at tHe S8t. John's Hospital in this city, marks the termination of a life, ideal in its devotion to duty. Father Bosch was brought here a few weeks ago from Pine Ridge Indian Agency to undergo an operation in the hope of saving his life. For 15 years Father Bosch has labored constantly with the Indians on this agency, and his death is the direct result of hs faithfulness to his charges. The Holy Rosuery Mission on the Pine Ridge Agency, where Father Bosch has lived these 156 years, has, during that time, become fam- ous with the Indians. The Indians have looked “upon him as a holy man, and all their tribal troub'e¢s and individual dif- ferences, they have laid before him like little children. Two years ago last spring, during a ter- rific storm, an Indian came to the door of Father Bosch’s cottage with the story of a brother who was dying in his wigwam, oon miles distant, and needed the minister- care of priest. Father Bosch imm.:d- oy Be sadd.ed his pony, and with the Indian on a guide, started out. After hours of severe os mgs the storm, which in- c'uded the ford of three swollen rivers, the wigwam of fhe dying Indian was reach Father Bosch remained for a day and a night, until the sick man was beyond the need of earth'y comfort. The priest then started on his homeward pense The storm had passed, but it had eft the rivers raging torrents. In atternpt- ing to cross over the first of these, the priest and his horse were swept down stream. He finally was thrown upon the bank, half buried beneath a p fle of brush- wood and with a badly injured leg. He was rescued and taken to the mission.

TWO UUNDS IN THIRTY SECONDS a ‘Battle’ Between No. 4457 and a Passenger. large street crowd, witnessed a 30-second prizefight last night, about 9:45 o'clock, be- tween transit conductor number 4467 and an unidentified man. The transit man was victor, knocking his man down twice in the half-minute round. The corner of Seventeenth and Market streets was the arena. Before the car reached the comer a man, seemingly in- toxicated, presented a number of trans- fers to the conductor, who refused to accept them, saying they were no good. The argument ended in the passenger leaving the car, the conductor treating him very courteously meantime. When the car started the man stood in the street calling the conductor vile names, The transit man sprang into action quick as a jack-in-a-box. He rang two bells, stopped the car, jumped from the platform and reached his traducer in a trice. He sent a blow to the chin and the man fell across the westbound tracks, apparent- ly senseless. ‘ “Pull him off the tractks,’” passengers called. The conductor caught his antagonist by the collar and jerk him to his feet. The man showed fight. He went down again from a short jab the transit man gave. Tien leaving his opponent lying in tne gutter, the are ee oo oarded his r and si "I ead.”’ The inexorable demand of schedule had cut short a very beautiful fight.

Special Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. BERLIN, Feb. 7.—Prof. Hilprécht of Philadelphia, who lectured recently at Ber- lin on his exacation work. at Nippur, the Site of one of the capitals of ancient Babylonia, expected to unearth tablets on the. site of the royal library. When he returns to Nippur next summer, he will recommence his operations. Meantime another excavator, Prof, Del- Itzsch, has happened on more than three thousand earthen tablets, all covered by cuneiform writing, which is undoubtedly all that remains of one of the Babylonian libraries. Judging by the fragments the professor thinks there must have been nearly a quarter of a million of them. They were the books of that time. It took about twenty of these bricks to make a book; they were numbered con- secutively in the top right-hand corner, an- swering to modern paging. Delitzsch’s find comprises bricks and about a dozen different subjects, astronomy, § astrol- Ogy, geometry, arithmetic, music, danc- ing, reading and writing. Not only are they scientific treatises but they Show as well how these subjects were taught in ancient Babylonia when Nebu- chadnezzar was king. Many of the tablets are wofully defaced, but translations of them wili doubtless be forthcoming. The music lessons must have been funny. Evidently the students stood in @ row, and each note had a correspond- ing bodily movement,,legs and arms being thrust backward and forward as the note was uttered. But it did hot seem necessary that all the students should sing the same note at once. The master stood in front with an instrument shaped like a long zither, on which he twanged the note he wanted, or, perhaps it was an accompani- ment. Judging by the remains, a Babylon- fan music class must have been a kind of pandemonium. The interpretation of dreams was a high- ly developed science. No one could Interpret dreams unless he was less than 30 or more than 60 years old, It required either youth- ful enthusiasm or the wisdom of old age. Every satraphy had aq college of dream in- spectors in which the science was pur- sued with ardor. There was a long Hst of the most rigid rules used in this sctenoe, and careful records were kept of remarkable fulfillments. These brick libraries were scattered up and down Babylonia and elaborate courts and buildings were raived to contain them. It took a boy 15 years to learn to read and write the simplified Babylonian writing, and if he were exceptionally gifted, he could read the complicated and contracted style in another five years. A large number of the brick books are on the subject of tax-paying, but it is doubt- ful whether modern nations can learn any- thing on this subject from the Babylonians, The tax gatherers were highly respected citizens, but more learned than loved, and it ts curfous to note that tax gatherers re- ceived instructions how to manage and find the tax-payers at home. There was no escaping the Babylonian tax gatherer, who seems to have done his work in a highly effecient manner. — CENTENARIANS CELEBRATE.

Warren Lanoix, the neted scientist-physician, whose researches in the cause and effect of Dipeomania and the drug habit, which has caused sc much talk In professional circles, has prepared and perfected a treatment whereby runk- enness, Morphine, Opium, Cocaine and the Drug Habit can be cured without pain, without hypodermics and without any dengerous or harmful remedies. In fact, ofter numerous tests on cases that had been termed incurable and were given up aa hopeless, this wonderful treatment not cnly perfected a cure but at the same time placed the patient in a better physical condition than the patient had known for years, for it not only eliminates the desire and eradicates the poison, but at the same thine acts soothingly upon the nerves and is a constitutional tonic making the nerves strong and normal and the entire constitu- tion strong. gE. F. Joues, manager of the Helping Hand Institute, Kansas City, Mo., one of institutes, writes under date of Feb. 4: “Beveral months ago the Lanolx cure was g:ven some half dozen or more people who were tn a sad plight, having been drunk- ards for years. are now perfectly cured and worthy citizens. the best known of our western charitable | oe £ fe liquor habit for more than past five years so 80 poesible to control desire.

Billie Annis returns to the Coasi League also. St. Louis Men in the Oalifornia League. St. Louls is represented in the California League by Eddie Pabst and Eddie Herr. Pabst was the first baseman and captain of the pennant winning San Francisco team two years ago. Last season he captured the Atianta team in the Southern League, but one year in the Southern was enough for him. He w.l]l return to ‘Frisco. HEau:e Herr breaks into league company after an absence of two years. He has signed with Oakland. Local talent has always been plentifully scaviered in the Southern League.

He Is think- ing of going into business here, and if he does. will play in the Missouri-lllinois League, in which only Sunday games are carded. ! George Winters goes back to the South- ern as captain of the Montgoemry team. He played the outfield there last year. He is one of those players who springs few sen- sations, but is steady and can always be depended ape. Big Frank Huls@nan, who led the South- ern i@ague in baiting in 181, returns to Shreveport for his third season. He is one ot the highest saiaried players im the South- ern.

Zoellers is considering an offer from a faster league and the captaincy will fall to “Nig” Per- rine, who was reported to have signed to play second base at Little Rock, in the Southern League.

The latest cap- ture is “Kid” Nichols, who will be sta- tioned in center field. Jimmy McDow- all, the former St. Louls University base- ball and football player, also returns to Springfield. He is a versatile player, and divided his time last season between holding down first base, catching and hoeing the right field. Billy Wolf will return to the Sedalia team, it is reported, and “Curley’’ Coombs, who played third base for the Iola team, is said to have signed with the Dallas club of the Texas League. Porter, who appeared with the Cardinals in some ex- hibition games here last spring, will perform in the Valley League. The players mentioned are not all that will “go out” this year. Many are still undecided, and others have signed and said nothing of it. The Trolley League will have six teams, practically all St. Louis men, many of whom have had league experience. The amateur league will develop the ange nt players who are just undergo- ng the processes which bring out any- thing that may be in a youngster, and at the same ¢ime furnish amusement for the other players—college and prepara- tory school men—who still maintain an amateur standing.

Fifteen head are now: in their herd, and, their range being close to Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway, it is an unexpected pleas- ure to travelers.

During that time I took excellent care of myself, because I knew that if I didn’t I would have to go to work. When 1 was able to play again I was sold to~ Brooklyn, where I[ finished the season slipping around in the infieid and doing poor work on account of my weak leg “I wanted to play in Brooklyn because it is my home, but the management con- cluded to pass me up and look around for a trade. Ned Hanion, manager of the Bal- timore Club, came _ alon and offered Brooklyn Billy Shindle and George Tred- way for Dan Brouthers, the man with the “ey ae bat, and yours truly. “The offer was accepted and in 18h I became an Oriole, biaying in Baltimore until the fall of 1898. When the Brooklyn and Baltimore clubs were consolidated I was assigned to Brooklyn, coming back to my native place under different circum- stances to when I was traded off. Would Rather Play in Home Town. “I would rather play in Brooklyn than anywhere else because it is my home, but I do not see why I should continue to do sO at a pecuniary loss to myself. The pleasure of playing in Brooklyn has cost me at least 32000 during the last year, and the sentiment of the thing does not ap- peal to me any longer. “When the Nat‘onal League season closed last fall I went West with the All- Na.iona. team. In Chicazo | met President Ban Johnson of the American League, and he offered me a salary that I knew the Brooklyn club would never dream of pay- ing me, or anybody e!se, and I signed a contract with him to play with the New York American League Club. He sent me a check for $2000—advance money. I under- stand. Ebbetts and Han:on have claimed that.I am under contract to the Brooklyn C ub for this year. They know better than that, and I have letters to prove that they know better.”’ Do you think baseball a good profession for a young man to:‘take up?”’ “I certainly do. I can't think of any rea- son why a young man, if he has the ability to be a er one, should not become a pro- fessional baseball player. I never heard of anyth ng else that wil! bring in as much money for six months’ work a year as ball playing will. Then there is the opportun- ty to travel all over the country, which is of great advantage to a young fellow. There is nothing to ee aman studying for a profession while he is playing ball and earning money enough to support h m - winter while attending school or col- ege. Brains Count in Baseball. - “Brains count in baseball every time. Look at John M. Ward. Jim O'Rourke, Harry Taylor, Mike Sullivan, Hugh Jen- nings, Ted Lewis, teacher of English at Columbia. There are Doctors Bushong, Baldwn, Newton, Casey and many other lawyers and doctors. I could name a hun dred ex-baseba!l players who saved money enough to go into business when they re- tired and. are now prosperous. There are any number of men who will play ball the coming season who have money inves ed in business and in property that brings them good returns. I read recently where Billy Dineen, of the Boston club, had been offered $43,000°for his hol@ings in o 1! lands in Pennsylvania, bought with money earned playing ball. Ball players, are so much in demand just now that any yourg player of abilit can very soon earn a good salary.”’ Who was the greatest pitcher you ever faced?’’ “Amos Rusie. When he was right and pitching the game he was capab'e of I don't think any man ever had anyth ng on the big fellow. His greatest strength lay in that his high curve was just as fast as his straight ball. It was almost impossible to gauge. It would not break until the ball too late to hit it. I have seen hm put a looked as {ff it were going nround your neck. Then came the sharp break and it would cut the plate.’’ The best pitcher in the business today, in my opinion, is Bill Donovan, I never Saw ‘better pitching than he did on our recent trip to the coast. They used to call him ‘Wild Bill’ on accceint ef his erratic control. He has lost his wildness now, and comes nearer to Rusia than anv man I know of in controlling his fast ball. I. think he will be a wonder next season. Young Batters Should Stand Close to Plate. “What is your advice to u slayer in regard to batting?’ young players # g00d hitters, there is no doubt any man can improve by constant practice. l would advise batters to stand close to the plate, be alert to the pitcher’s every move, and learn to hit anythme within reach if necessary, keep a clear eye, and then hit them where they count.” “What was the most exciting gamé you ever took part in?’ “In Baltimore, in 1897, between the Bostons and our team. The game de- cided the championship. It was full of good batting and fielding, muffing, fum- bling and bad throwing. Players and spectators were worked up to a high tch. The climax came when Herman ong made one of the greatest plays ever seen on the diamond and won the fame and championship for Boston.” “Which do you consider the greatest play you ever made?” “We were playing the Pirates one day taltimore, when in the ninth inning, with two runs needed to win and one out, Patsy Donovaan on second, Jake Stenzel on first and ‘Eagle Eye’ Jake Beckley at the Dat. vuke siMaASiied lie wari vie. my head to the rigent field fence. Donovan and Stenzel started for home, and Sten- zel had turned the third when I ran back to the fence, caught the ball with one hand and doubled Jake up at first. “My longest hit? Well, I haven't made so many. I have only once made a home run with three men on bases. That was in Brooklyn two years ago, against the Phillies.” mince ptintasrnae Johnny Farrell Has a Son. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 21.—Johnny Farrell, second baseman of the St. Louis Cardinals, welcomed a new son and heir Friday morning. The youngster is a ten- pounder, ALARM FOR DEAF MUTES. ANACONDA. Mont., Feb. 21.—An alarm clock for deafmutes ‘s the novel invention of Elisha Cretzer, a deafmute in the em- ploy of the Washoe smelting plant. A string connects the clapper of the alarm clock with an ordinary spring mouse- trap, fastened to the top of the cigar box. By a system of small pulleys and screw eyes a pillow is fastened to the end of a str ng and pulled to the ceiling, directly above the bed. An ingenious arrangement connects the other end of the sir ng to the mousetrap. The clock is set, and when the alarm goes off the string attached to the bell-c!apper springs the mousetrap and releases the pillow, which drops on the person sleeping in the bed beneath. “When it does not hit me it hits my wife.” Mr, Cretzer says, “and so I never miss a day any more.’ Internal Revenues Decrease.

DETROIT, Mich., Feb. 21.—The mystery of Andy Tokell’s fighting style is at last cleared up. The British bantamweight boxer, who is to meet Harry Forbes at Detroit Feb, 27, was seen here In training with Dan McMahon, his sparring riner, and the mooted question of what he pos- a gg that makes him formidable was spt- tled. Since his arrival in this country few persons have witnessed Tokell's workouts and little was known of his style. Judging from his exhibition of yesterday, the Eng- hshman is the first of the British contin- gcnt in this country to employ the rangy style of fighting. He went after McMahon with a wide guarg@ and apparently inviting a punch in the face.

Aside from his feats in the line of twist- ing horseshoes and bars of fron ani driving a huge spike through a board ‘five inches thick, the Swede is a lifter of great repute in his country. He lifts horses, and when on a properly arranged scaffold can ralse a horse off the ground with his teeth. But the feature that shows the toughness of his bone and sinew is the driving of an eleven-inch spike with the bare palm of his hand. He kneels, fixes the head of the spike in the palm of his right hand, swings his arm around tiwce like a baseball pitcher, then strikes.

This list does not contain all the battles fought, won, lost and drawn by these men, but the most important contests. Exhibition bouts are not in- cluded. Joe Gans, the lightweight champion, has won the largest number of battles. He draw 14. George Dixon is second with 8 battles won; Spike a Fy comes next with 61 victories each. Bennie Yanger, the Chicago feather- weight, is the only fighter who has never had a decision rendered against him. Jim Jeffries also had a clean record until he met Jack. Munro, when a deci- sion was given against him, which, of course, must go down as a defeat. He has won 15 and fought 2 to a draw. Austin Rice fought the largest number having 44 to his credit.

A ae * BASEBALL NOTES A Owing to the failure of President Ralph Orthwein of the St. Louis Ameri- can League baseball club to arrive in St. Louis yesterday the election of Ben Adkins to the vice-presidency of the Browns was deferred until Monday. A quorum of stockholders was wanting pending the absence of Orthwein. and no vote could be taken. Mr. Adkins’ accession to the position is a mere mat- ter of form, as all details have been ar- ranged for him to be railrdaded into the office. Secretary Hedges will leave the city next week to be present at the New York conference of the American yy The schedule committees of both the Na- tional and American Leagues will meet Monday in Chicago to arrange details for the coming season. The question of umpires for the epring series tween the Browns and the Car- dinals is one of several that have not been taken up by Messrs. Robison and Hedges. The latter stated yesterday that no arrangements had been made providing’ for umpires for the series, but that no local men would be used for the purpose. In all pueselir Mr. Hedges said, Hank O'Day and Jack Sher- idan would do the honors of the ucca- sion. The former is a National man and the latter from the American League. Chris Ghio, the local knight of the indicator, was looking for the job, but the proba- bilities are that major league men named will be used for the purpose. Baseball Queries Answered.

ARE YOU INSANE? THE LEADING POLICE QUESTION The Cases Include All Kinds of Mental Aberration and Most of Those Afflicted Have a Desire to Commit Murder. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 21.—The pub- lic and the press in this city are asking: “Is there an epidemic of insanity in this city?’ and with reason. Since the first of the year insanity has run riot through Kkansas City and vicinity and the police here have had to deal with over a score of cases. The result is that the first thing asked when a prisoner who looks a little unusual is broughe in, is regarding his mental con- dition. The prisoner who is quiet, the prisoner who is noisy, the prisoner with the shifty eyes and the prisoner with a vacant stare al] placed in the category of crazed persons and closely watched. It is possible that the ‘‘crazy scare’’ the police have experienced may have branded some prisoners as “‘non compos mentis”’ who were all right so far as their thinking powers were concerned. One or two cases were undoubtedly the insanity caused by drink, but, happily, none of these has been sent to the asylum. One of the first cases of pronounced in- sanity picked up was William J. Bryan, not of Nebraska, who was arrested Jan. 4. He was an escaped lunatic from St. " Joseph, and was later returned here. F. X. Clgrk, the Main street restaurant man, who became temporarily unbalanced over worry because of the voycott on his place of businese. was the next one booked. Then came S. E. White and W. Jones, who were delivered to Humane Officer Greenman for disposition. White was eared for by friends. while Jones was sent to the city hospital. His aberration was temporary. Sylvester Swank, the murderer of Po- liceman McKinney. and Marcus E. Uman- uel, who killed Charley Holman, held the boards for a time. rior to these C. BK. Poston killed Gus Glazer at the Wash- ington Hotel. Evan Crutchfield, a negro, who imagined that he had the power to réstore life, was arrested last month and cared for by the police until relatives ealled for him. Elbert J. Rapp, who tried to give his money away at the union de- ot, was another victim of disordered rain to be arrested during the month. His brother came from New York for ™m Dr. Adolf Goodman became ingane Jan. uw; after firing several shots at objects in nis home to amuse himself he was taken in 4 the police. He was later sent to the St- Joseph Asylum. John McManus, an es- . was caught here and returned to that place. J. J. Conway, a Clyde, Kan., priest, became “‘off’’ at the Union depot, and insisted that he be arrested for an offense he imagined he had committed. Sanz W. Fulkerson, who organized the Ste- = ghe geared Union and gave a banquet, the bill of which was never paid, later getting mto other trouble, was returned to the asylum at St. Joseph. George Ziddel of Clay County became insane ahd was sent to the asylum. w Newsum of Oklahoma, who thought he had invented a ee telephone, was another sufferer. ry Wi- ley, the domestic who créated such excite ment at the home of her employer, is at so city hoepital. Addie Baker, who was ought to be insane, was sent to the work- house. H. Ward, who asked the assistance and protection of the police, saying he was growing insane and that some one was trying to kill him, is at the city hospital. Mrs. Lizzie Scott was sent to St. Joseph to the asylum. William reg | is at the city hospital suffering from a deranged mind. rank L. wag the negro who created a dis- turban at the St. Joseph's Hospital, is at the eee 4 hospital, as is also 8. A. Price of Kentucky, who created a disturbance at the Union pot Bunday. Such a record is almost appalling. The frequency with which the police have been asked to care for insane persons lately has naturally made them suspicious of every son who acts differently from others. It 8 a notable coincidence that after the re'gn of pistol casualties a «hort time ugo there has been no scattered instances of shoot- ings. and this form of amusement has sud- denly lost popularity among the people of sas City. Following on this came th f cases of locs of menta © police wonder what will come GAUTEMALA ELECTS ARIAS.

At the meeting of the Bar Association held in courtroom number 7 at the courthouse yesterday the special jury law was vehemently denounced, and the recent exposures of its corrupt employment by the Post-Dispatch heartily indorsed by the reprosentative barristers who were present. After several hours eepnt in speechmaking Chairman E. J. Cunningham appointed a committee composed of Ward D. BEisen- burg, Frank K. Ryan and A. R. Taylor to get data showing the injustice of the law, and to draft @ resolution asking its re- peal by the legislature. The committee will report the results of thelr work at the next meeting, which is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon at 2 o’clock In the court of appeals. Attorney Ernest E. Woodin in his ad- dress said:* “The Post-Dispatch has pub- lished articles that show concisely how this special jury law does the commu- nity a great injury. I for one think, as do many co-workers in this association, that great credit is due the paper for its efforts to eradicate an unjust law that will permit a defendant to pick his own jury, oftentimes from branches of trade with which he is allied. The jury in a case of this kind know that to award a verdict to his opponent would be against their business interests, and for that reason are blind to the demands of justice.” Col. B. R. Taylor said in past that no- where else in the United States is such an offensive, un-American law tolerated. “No jurisprudence in the. world would hesitate at adopting the law if it was beneficial to the people,” he continued. “In 1895 an attempt was made to have the law repealed at Jefferson City, but in some way the bill was pigeonholed. If the = pec does not repeal it soon there will in all probabilily be an upris- ing of the people to have their demands recognized.’ Promised to Repeal the Law. Chairman Cunningham said that he had just returned from tite state capitol and while there had interviewed a majority of the members of both houses and they promised thelr support to the repeal of the law and expressed hopes that the Dill would be introduced during this session which terminates March 18. ‘‘The business men of St. Louis feel the brunt of the law while it is in affect. This past week more the na nthousand of them were subpenaed from their placee of business to do jury service at a dollar a day. The harm done to their affairs is incalculable. The cases they are used in places them in an cm- barrassing position socially and at the same time keeps men who perhaps need the pay from the oppose to earn it.’”’ The attaches of the sheriff's office were jubilant when they were apprised of the resuits of the bar association meeting. In- stead of the usual fee of & cents for serv- ing jury notices they are allowed only 15 cents per capita for getting special jurors. al PENSION BILL AGREED TO.

SMOTHERED BY THE KING. Domination of English Politics by So- cial Influence Shown by the Hush- ing Up of Scandal. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Coprright, 198, br the Presa Publishing Co.) LONDON, Feb. 21.—An astonishing illus- tration of how English politics is dominated by royal social influences is afforded by the success go far attending the effort to hush up the Grenadier Guards scandal. The press of this country, without distinc- tion, has been ringing with the flogging revelations, and there has been a peremp- tor demand everywhere for an !nquiry and a stamping out of the hazing practices. Willlam Bromley Davenport, M. P., in behalf of Col. Kinloch, who has been re- tired, and Admiral Cochrane, for the haze4 ofticers, wrote to the Times annoncing that the matter would be brought before Parlia- ment tmmediately. But on Tuesday: after- noon Lord Knollys, the King’s secretary, saw Prime Minister Balfour and conveyed to him the Kine’s wish that the subject should not be ddbated in Parilament if it could be avolded, and now it is announced that no parliamentary action will be tak- en. The Liberais, as susceptible to social presa- sure as the Tories, secm'ngly are afraid to intervene. So, if the subject is raised at all, it will be on the army estimates, when the public Interest has died down, and it ean be smothered over without difficulty. Meantime Col.

Boiled dinnefs are also a Noonday Club speciaity. It’s a good thing the kitchen is a floor ‘above the clubroqms, or the smell of cabbage would wipe out the smell of dollars.” “I don't like to break into even a ghost’s train of thought,”’ said the Oldest Inhabitant, ‘but what are these enormous Russian leather couches in the hall for. No one seems to occupy them but the beliboys.”’ “Those settees are part of the $25,000 furnishings of the club. They cost $400 cach and though no one but the be!ll- boys sit on them, they have been in use ever since the club was opened in April, 1893, and you couldn't tel] that they hadn’t come in, yesterday. There is a round iable of oak in the reading room large enough to have been left over from King Arthur's time.

Not a lock or scrsw vr doorknob on the Se- curity building can be duplicated In this market. The huge marble fireplaces in the main dining room were put up by Italian workmen and the marble {s some of the most expensive ever used here. John T. Dayis, Charles C. Maffett, L. M. Rumsey, Moses B. Rumsey anil Charles D. McLure erected the Security buiidjing. They wanted a place where they could take their midday lunoh after di- rectors’ meeting at the State Hank. ‘They gave the rooms to the club, rent free, during the early days, and it ‘is said heiped to carry the club through the depression of 1893.

You could start them off on the slight- est hint. You don't hear any silver talk at the million- aire’s table now or anywhere else in the club. “I'd rather like to take a look at those Solar Walkers,” said the O!dest Inhabitant, as the queer pair swung pest the club pantry into the cafe in the west wing. “Who is this Bud Dozier that's always creating a disturnance and having to be called down?"

The sentiment of the great mass of St. Loulsans was sound and effective in support of Mr. Folk. Not one reputable newspaper in St. Louts failed to give Mr. Folk the most hearty and effective support in the exposure of boodling and in commendation of his course. ‘The Post-Dis- patch, which has been exposing and denouncing corruption for years, gave Mr. Folk the most powerful ald in his work—aid without which it would have been difficult for him to accom- plist nearly as much as he did. It printed exposures of boodle schemes which gave the circuit attorney valuable clews, and sent & representative to Mexico to persuade Murrell to surrender without any pledge of immunity or obligation on the part of the circuit attorney. Murrell’s surrender brought about the indictment of 18 boodlers, the indictment of Butler, and greatly aided in the prosecution of both boodlers and bribers. The Post-Dispatch proposed a public fund for the prosecution of the boodlers, contributing thereto $500. The fund was raised by private subscription, and, in addition to the fund whch was contributed at the beginning of the boodle prosecution, enabled Mr. Folk to pursue his work without the hampering condition of lack of money, for the supplying of which no pro- vision was made by the state. Citizens of 8t. Louis, outside of boodlers, bribers and men in- volved with them and officials immediately under their in- fluence, have solidly stood by Mr. Folk, applauding his course and giving him the great aid of sound public sentiment. The sentiment of the state of Missourl, which Mr. Steffens applauds, was a reflection of the sentiment of the press and people of St. Louls. Lack of public excitement and of public mass meetings has been cited as proof of the apathy of the people of St. Lou's towards the boodle prosecution. Circuit Attorney Folk himself opposed public mass meetings on the ground that they might make it difficult to secure local juries for the trial of boodle cases and it should be noted that little political importance attached to the exposures, and no reform campaign was based upon them because our reform campaign had previousiy taken place and through the election of Mr. Folk fad brought ‘about the prosecutions. ¢ St. Louis has certainly been plunged in a mire of corruption, 48 many other cities have, but no man could ask for stronger public support than Mr. Folk has received from 8t. Louis peopk in his attempt to pull the city out of the mire. The best proof of this is the fact that a verdict of guilt was brought in every boodle case that reached a jury. The characters in the stories offered for prizes in the Post- Dispatch prize story contest “must represent 8t. IAuis people.’’ rhis does not necessarily mean that they must be real St. Louis- ans, either living or dead. It gives the writer free scope. They must “represent” St. Louis people, just as Col. Carvel and Gen Grant represented St. Louls peopie in “The Crisis’’~one a fic- titious character, but easily identified -with the real, the other an actual pergon. With this explanation there need be no more doubt on this point. GIVING THE BOY A START. It is reported that Mr. John W. Gates its going to lay down the strenuous life, his son to “‘take up the fight.’’ Mr. Gates gave the young man $1,000,000 last Christmas. was “a starter for the boy.” Time was that a boy's starter consisted of a live and active brain and willing hands.

Once only the rich man had his carriage; now the poor man rides, and with a nickel pays his coachman. Once the beautiful was concentrated in cathedrals and palaces, while the common people lived in mud houses, wore rags and walked on dirt floors. Now the beautiful is organized into coats, into carpets, into decorations on the wall. : Even more significant is the diffusion of wealth and the equalizing of opportunities. All doors of progress are now open alike to the widow's son and the banker’s child. Men make much of the -enormous for- tunes but they forget that Washington was far richer in his day, in view of the little wealth of that time than Carnegie and Rockefeller are in our day, in view of the amount of property that now exists. Superficial men sometimes say that there are no more great changes. Gone forever the day when opportunity was great through new lands, new forests, new mines or a new country. But such statements are based upon misapprehension, Every new tool that is invented, every new business that is developed, carries with it a hundred new positions and openings for young men. Some years ago I listened to the testimony before one of the Blue Book commissions in Parliament. The whole subject of the chances of the young men of today was up for investigation. An old manufacturer from Manchester was on the witness stand. He had accumulated an immense fortune and was giving his testi- mony. He said that in 1840 he went up to Manchester to find his fortune. At that time he had only a strong hand, a sturdy purpose, and £100. “Would a young man with £100 in his hands, similarly biessed in body and mind, have an equal chance today?’’ asked the chairman of the commission. “He wou'd have no chance whatever,” was the old manufacturer’s answer. “With my £100 I set up a little loom, but a youth today could not compete with us unless he began with £200,000 to £500,000.” Then the old manufacturer went on to slam the door of hope in the face of every youth But as the tesiimony proceeded I noticed one thing in the man’s discussion. He said that during the first 30 years of his career as manufacturer he averaged about a thousand pounds a year. He also stated afterward that in the factory in the city and representing it the firm hired some 50 men whose salary was £1000, Now the ol@ gentleman had entirely over- looked the fact that there were 50 men, who with no capital save that of mind and body, had come up te Manchester to find 50 openings where he had found one, and where it was necessary for him to bring with him what was a large capital for that day—£100these 5) young men had to bring no vapital whatever, save that of mind and body.

New Men Needed for High Places. Nor must we forget another considera- tion. Lift your eyes and look about you. There are great banks and rallways and factories and stores and the positions filled by the judge, the editor and the states- man. It is not necessary for a young man to climb so high that he can push one of these great men out of the exalted position he occupies. Remember one thing. Death sits up all night and every n‘ght, neither slumbering nor sleeping, to make sharp his scythe to cut down these tall men. Today the great position is filled, but on the mor- frow the position will be vacant. Tomorrow there will be a sign standing there: ‘‘Want- ed, a man to fill this chair.’’ Tomorrow, the editor and the author will drop the'r pens; tomorrow the great banker and mer- chant willl turn from his desk. Tomorrow the great door of opportunity will be flung open. He who will may enter it. The golden word, therefore, is ready when the moment comes. Events will bring the op- portunity. The Psychological Moment. Perhaps from one viewpoint men. make too much of the word “Opportunity.” They overestimate the element involved in the words ‘‘good fortune,”’ “chance” and luck. They make too much of the proverb, “‘The unexpected always happens.’’ The poets tell us that “‘there is a tide in the affairs of men that, taken at its flood, sweeps on to fame and fortune.” The ver} gaming in the street have their proverb for a stmilar idea, and assute us that ‘opportunity has front locks,”’ but no back-hatr. The statesmen tell us that Lincoln sent out his emancipation proclamation at the psychological moment, when the people of the North were encouraged by a great vic- tory, and that spirit of courage wag dou- bled by the freedom of the slave, for which the war was fought. While, on the other hand, the proclamation came at a critical moment for the South, @ section that was discouraged by Antietam, and then crushed by the second staggering blow that made thelr sluves freemen. The farmer understands that the May day is an opportune day, when the sun lends his heat, and the soil lends its fervor and the clouds Jend their rain, and the seed lends its growth. Nevertheléss, this sheaf in the September began back in that right- ly used May. Had April and May been neglected, Beptember and October would have been poverty-stricken. In the foundry, there is a moment when the golden glass is hot and plastic, and will take on the lines of a beautiful cup. But once that moment fs let pass, the glass wil! cool and take an ugly shape forever. Emergency ‘comes in a moment, Not otherwise is it in the world of af- fairs. The head of the department is well today, but tomorrow he will be ill and a new and younger man will take his place.

During much of ‘this time he ived tn a garret, and studied in the law courts to keep warm. But the youth made it his practice to take @ case¢ and follow it just as closely. The moment the pedestal was empty a youth leaped into the vacant spot and his fitness, so that the man and the moment matched as if he were the one lawyer in- volved. When the counsel for the plaintiff opened } the case and told what he intended to prove, Erskine took notes, and that night he wrote his own brief, trying to improve} on the lawyer's. Was the witness on the stand, he questioned the witness mentally, while the prosecutor questioned the witness verbally. Sometimes he felt that he could have improved upon the cross-examination, and sometimes he learned much from the scholarly pleader. When it came to the hour when the coun- sel addressed the jury or the judge, kine made as careful preparations as though he were the counsel, and sometimes he sat up half the nihgt, working up the testimony and preparing his argument. It so happened that by a singular chance, when one of the lawyers in a case was taken ill, this young lawyer with his thread- bare garments came forward and said that he knew all about the case. Through that chance conversation he be- came one of the counselors, and when one of the other leading lawyers eprained his wrist, the moment came when Erskine could rise and address the judge. This he did with such power that it was looked up- on as one of the most remarkable extem- pore efforts that had ever been made before a judge or jury. That night Eriskine was the talk of all the lawyer# of Temple Bar. In the morn- ing the youth was friendless, miserable, poor and unknown. The next morning clients crowed to his door, and he leaped at a single bound from poverty to an in- come of £5000 a year, which later grew to £12,000. Erskine never ceased to express gratitude for the tragedy of events that gave him his chance, and he spoke of the illness of coun- sel as offering the great oportunity of his life. But the opportunity was really away back of that. The opportunity came fn all those law cases, when he, without salary; tried the case, ahd carried it through to a successful conclusion qithout having spoken a word, and withott even being recognized by either judge or jury. when at last this counsel was taken iil, that event simply revealed, published and proclaimed the fact that there was one a ieee . 5 a 4 , ° nr > f hte ¥ i Pa i 4 - * is z ~ rw . » ~ + tg er : 3 s 4 7 “ay eF sj aoe 7 : caf ce portunity, o 3 | er ey ¢ a te ae Sher E 5 e. £ At SO EEO EE EE el Or ey ER A TALK TO SPINSTERS. Lillian Bell, in Harper’s Bazar. The first thing a woman should do, who sits down to think out a deliberate scheme of happiness, is to close her eyes and think, out of all the world. what she would rather do if she were mistress of her own fate. Think it out luxuriously, luxuriantly, re- gardlese of the possibility of achieving it. Then gradually come down from your dream of a‘palace and a yacht ana x pri- vate car to the next beef. Wate your time about it. Think each dream out in all iis fascinating detail. Then come on down ty degrees—for it is never attractive to think of the things you can afford—until you have reached something reasonable. Now think of the way you could best earn money, if you had a start. Can you trim hats? Can you darn and embroider and mend lace? Are you fond of animals? Do sick birds get well under your care? Or are you a business woman by instinct? Can you count and multiply and subtract without chewing a lead pencil and using a ream of paper? Were you born in the c'ty and Into the heritage of the hall bedroom, and wouid you give anything on earth for a little cot- tage in the country, not so far from the city as to bar you from going In when the frogs at night make you too lonely, nor so near to other people as to hinder you from wearing a short skirt and a sunbon- net all day? Oh, you office women on small salaries! You poor starved souls, struggl'ng to make both ends meet, deafened by oity noises, harassed by city prices, biinded by city sights! Get out Into the suburbs or even the country, and find what life holds for you. PRESS AND PULPIT ARE RIVALS. President Eliot, of Harvard, pointed out in 1883, writing on “The Education of Cler- rious rival of the pulpit as a teacher of the people. How potent is this ethical rivalry is shown in a recent bulletin issu- ed by the Census Bureau, showing the growth of newspapers and periodicals in this country from 1890 to 1900. A writer in Harper's Weekly, in an article on “The Waxing Power of the Journalist,”’ calis attention to the figures in this bulletin, by which it is seen that in 1900 our com- bined monthly periodicals had a yearly cir- culation of 426,238,764 copies. Allowing five readers to each copy, the result is 2,131,- 193,820 readers a year of all month!ly period- icals. Here is a direct influence, colossal, indeed, in power. A NATURAL MISTAKE.

No one who has not traveled or lived in the mountain fastness of New England can have any idea of how abundant are these derelicts who overdo Americanism and cari- cature the equality they are forever boast- ing. I encountered several of those bogus aris- tocrats, One had been sent for to drive me to Lake Dunmore from the inn at Brandon, the most beautiful village I have seen in all my travels. He came in, reeking of the stable, to ask, ‘“‘Is there a feller here that wants to go to the lake?’ Having me pointed out, and hearing that I had yet to pay my reckoning and pack my bag, he said, ‘‘See here; I don't hev to drive for no hotel, and I'l! let you know if you hain't in my wagon inside er three minutes, yer can't ride with me.”’ Again, at Lake Dunmore, I once com- plained that a rowboat hired by the week was often too wet and dirty to be used by the ladies in my party.

From Tid-Bits. Most people suppose a mole to be dumb, but 4t is not. A mole can give a sound £0 shrill that it hasn’t effect on the human ear at all, and another sound so lew and soft that no human being can hear it. Yet a weasel can hear both these sounds as plainly as you car the report of a gun, and a sound-registering machine—the phon- autograph—will chow them both, with scores of other sounds you are deaf to. The usual note of the mole is a low purr, which it uses a good deal while at work underground; and ft can also shout at the top of its voica tf hurt or alarmed, but though it shouted and purred in your ear you wouldn't hear it. however, with its delicate pencil that nrarks the volume of sound on & wpaner, gives the quantity of both sounds. A weasel, too, which is one of thé mole’s enemies, can hear these sounds through a couple of inches of earth, and often catches the mole when he throws up his hillocks of earth. The common field mouse, too, has a purr that its altogether beyond you, though you can hear him squeak plainly enough if he 1s hurt. A death’s-head moth, too, can squeak, but that is done by rub- bing his wings together, and is not a voice at all. But the champion of all creatures for good hearing, and one that can hear a sound that is ¢Cver 100 degrees beygnd your own limit, is the common thrush, and you may often amuse yourself by watching him at it. He can hear a lobDWorm moving an- derground, locate him by the noise,*and haul him out. Often you may see a thrush stand per- fectly still on your lawn, cock his ear and listen intently, then make a couple of steps and haul out a fat lobworm.

Washington, Feb. 21, 1908. TWELVE O’CLOCK, NOON. Charlies E. Littlefield of Rockland, Me, Was reading a newspaper. It was early tn the summer. Mr. Little- field had iong since formu’ated the plan of framing a bill that should regulate or, to use the the better word, curb, the ille- : gl combination of corporate wealth that are sapping the life blood of the toiling masses of the country. It wag his intention to place on the stat- wte books the Littlefield law which, he “modestly hoped, would send his name down to history alongside those of John Sher- ‘man and several other statesmen who have beer. fortunate enough to get their auto- Sraphs on measures of public importance.

He read with intense eager- From Maine. tend to come to Rockland as my guest has nothing to do with the case.”’ “That ought to hold him for a time,” said the President's friends. ‘‘If you went to cee him he would take it to mean that you real- ly want him to represent you. If there is anything coming out of this anti-trust busi- ness it is coming to you.” For all that, Rookland coul@ not under- stand. Mr. Littlefield flared forth through the land. “Really,” he said to the reporters who swarmed after him, “I am not in a posi-> tlon to say much. This is a d.licate matter, you undersand. It t& a position of re sponsibility to prepare the President's anti- trust bill. It carries with it obligations that cannot be discussed l ght y.’ “But, Mr. Littiefield. won't you tell the pubilc something of your pians?”’ Mr. Littlefieid hesitated, “As I was say- ing,’’ he finally announced, “Il am not in @ position to say much, but rather than be discourteous, I can give you a brief statement of my intentions that I trust you can use. I am reluctant to give this to you, and for that reason have carefully prepared a few thousand words. ‘You understand my position.

Then that it was ready for final] revision, Mr. Littlefield made the strict rule that he would not talk for publication more than twenty-six times a day and lived up to it. Finally the bill was almost ready. Then, with a pervereeness that was al- most criminal, the newspapers announced that Senator Cullom of Illinois had tntro- duced an anti-trust bill that represented the ideas of the administration. Mr. Littlefield could not believe it. Mr. Littlefield pondered these announce- ments. It was soon clear to him. The newspapers were jealous. OW THE STROKE OF & Just as the moment of triumph was to come, fust as the name of Littlefield was to be blazoned forth as the greatest construc- tive statesman, while the Littlefield bil! wae being finished under the careful eye of its originator, a grizzled person from Wisconsin, named Jenkins, strolled into the House of Representatives two minutes before adjourning time une afternoon and dropped two typewritten bills into the bas- ket. “What are they?’ asked a bystander. “They are the President's anti-trust bills."’ expla'ned Jenkins.

Next morning it had leaked out that Represent- ative Charles EB. Littlefield of Maine was @ candidate fcr the speakership. It was understood that Mr. Littlefield had the enthusiastic and undivided support of one-fourth of the Maine delegation. Meantime, a stony-hearted citizen who had been in Congress from Danville, LiL, for many years concluded he would also be a candidate for the speakership. This per- sor, with _— the Congress and the news- papers were they called Ain “TJnc.e Joe’’ Cannon, made no speeches and gave out no interviews, with a practicality that wae as disturbing as it was vulgar, he got out after votes. so familier a footing that When Congrees met in December, Mr. Lit- tlefield still had the enthusiastic and un- divided support of one-fourth of the Maine dejegation. “Uncle Joe’’ Cannon, with the selfishness that predominates to such @ reprehenaibie extent in American politics, had all the rest. Mr. Littlefieid studied the situation long and earnestly. Fle was assured by one-fourth of the Maine state delegation that he was emi- nently fitted for the speakership, but he was foacea to acknowledge that the chances of merit being recognised were somewhat remote. it pained him to be told this. till he had even a greater and more glorious mie- sion. He was the men to prepare and pre- sent the administration's anti-trust bill. There haé been no further announcement from the White House of the plan for Mr. Littlefield. Tihtat, he took it, was due to inadvertance. I.ong hours were spent in framing the were frequent discussions with the president and attorney general. Strangely enough, the president never, di- roctly told Mr. Littlefield that he had chosen him. Mr. Léttlefield wondered at thie. but sald nothing. “Perhaps,” he thought, “the president did not care to discuss turther such a weighty matter.

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 21.—If Rex, King of the Mardi Gras carnival, were a real king, New Orleans the chief city of his realm and Miss Alice Roosévelt a princess of the blood she could not receive more homage and attention than she hag re- ceived ever since she arrived in this city, last Tuesday. Her visit here has been one continual round of festivities. She has been enter- tained by every one who was able to find an opportunity during the week of balls, parties and receptions. She has been feted and feasted untill there was absolutely not another minute into which an entertainment could be crowded. She has even had the pleasure of spending a portion of an afternoon with Mrs. Jeffer- son Davis, who came over from Biloxi es- pecially to meet the President’s daughter. Yiss Roosevelt is the especial guest of Mrs. McIhenny. She was met at the station ~ gages 2 ~ oe a i ] : : * ¥, “Ae, & - . Zh : x -— oo © ss see : f - Ps ; G ' a : a .

Miss Roosevelt attended the Atlantean ball Tuesday evening, where she was paid¢ unusual homage. The following afternoon she was tendered a luncheon by Mrs. Nor- vin T. Harris. That evening Mrs. Mcll- henny gave a dinner in her honor and later in the evening she witnessed the Momus parade from the balcony of the Pickwick Club and attended another ball, given by the carnival organization. She has been accompanied to these festivities by Miss Root, who has attended simply as a spec- tator, being in mourning. PLEASES ALL SHE MEETS. Among those whom Miss Roosevelt has met and who have been especially atten- tive to her are Mrs. Edgar Farrar, a niece of Mrs. Jefferson Davis, and her charming daughter, Miss. Letitia Stevenson, daughter of ex-Vice President Adelai BSte- venson of Illinols, who is here as the guest of her cousin, Capt. Charles 8. Brownwall; the three daughters of Gen. Joe Wheeler, who are here with their father, and Baron andBaroness Vietinzhoff of St. Petersburg. The baroness was formerly Miss Martha Fay of New York. She has been introduced to representa- tive southern aristocracy without reserve, although it is said that this is the most difficult society: in the world to enter. She has aleo met Admiral and Mre. Schiey at some of the functions. Every one who has met Miss Roosevelt scems to be thoroughly captivated by her. She is cordial without being gushing, and appears quite as reserved at times as the conservative society into which ehe is now thrown for the first time. And she pos- sesses a wonderful amount of tact. She does or says nothing that can give the slightest offense. “She is certainly a diplomat,” gaid ore of New Orleans’ society young ladies, who met her. “She knows just what to say and when to say it, she does not get into awk- ward corners from which it is difficult to find exit. She has so far avoided talking about any matters whatsoever that might lead to criticism of her father, the Presi- dent, nor does she allude to any criticisms that have appeared in the southern papers from time to time and which take him #0 severely to task for his position on the race question.’’ ATTENTIONS AT THE BALL. Miss Roosevelt's first appearance in pub- lic was at the Atlantean bal] Tuesday even- ing . While there was nothing ostentatious in the welcome accorded her, it was most cordial and pronounced. After this year’s court had been intro- duced, and the queen and maids who honored last year’s ball had been escorted to the throne, the King of the Atlanteans beckoned his special courier and placed in his hands a royal decree, written in letters of gold upon the whitest of parchment. The courier hurried to the box where Miss Roosevelt was sitting and, bending low, presented the scroll, which conveyed to her the King’s wish that she should meet his‘ Queen and court. In obedience to the in- vitation, Miss Roosevelt rose and was es- corted upon the platform. The maskers divided into two long lines, leaving a lane which lead to the throne. As Miss Roosevelt mounted the platform the band played “Way Down South in Dixie,”’ and the Opera House resounded to the cheers of the Atlanteans and their guests. It was at once the delicacy of the compli- ment and the desire of those present to fit- tingly welcome Miss Roosevelt which brought the house to its feet. DISPLAY A NOVELTY. In discussing the bail at the luncheon tendered her the following day by Mrs. Harris, Miss Roosevelt said: “I think the Atlantean ball the most in- teresting I ever attended. The sately de- corum of the king and the knights and the inate refining grace of the ladies impressed me most. The tableaux throughout the bal! and on the etage, illustrating important ogy were features I had never seen before and no @escription I have ever seen can adequately convey the interest they have for those who had never seen them.” Despite the false reports sent out that here with Miss Root, daughter of the secretary of the navy, by Messrs. John and Paul McIlihenny and driv- en at once to the home of their mother, where she was welcomed by Mrs. and M’ss Melihenny. From that time on, with the spent quietly at home, every minute of time No woman ever received so much atten- tion: from New Orleans society, except Miss Winnie Davis, who came here as the city’s cents.

John MclIthenny, the oldest son, has been a guest at President Roosevelt’s home at Oyster Bay and is a faworite with the chief executive. Capt. McIihenny went out with the rough riders as a private and at- tracted the attention of Mr. Roosevelt. The President is said to have remarked that he could tell a gentiman despite the coat he wore and picked out Mr. MclIlhenny as one. Later Mr. Mcllihenny was made a Heutenant and then a captain of one of the companies. There is a well defined rumor going the rounds that Capt. McIlhenny and Miss Roosevelt will announce their engagement early in the spring. From what has been written of the family’s income it may be seen that Capt. Melihenny, while not rich tn the Wall street sense, still has enough to keep the wolf from the door. After the carnival is over Miss Roosevelt and Miss Root, tn company with some of the elite young people will become the guests of Capt.

Among the attentions which Mise Roose- velt is said to most enjoy are the great bouquetg of semi-tropical flowens, which are sent to her daily. The city is fuli of them at present, and there is never a morning that a number of beautiful floral offerings do not find their way to her room. She fairly lives among the flowers. Thursday forenoon Capt. Mclihenny took Mise Roosevelt for a long drive through the old French quarter. The queer ttle narrow streets with their quaint old courts and adobe houses were a source of never ending interest and delight with her. In the afternoon Miss Roosevelt and Miss Root were entertained at luncheon by the Misses Myles daughters of the Myles who have leased the salt mines of Avery Island from Mclihenny’s. Friday at 1 o'clock the young women were entertained at a luncheon given at the residence of Mrs. Pearl Wight. Mr. Wight is one of the leading hardware men of this city, and &@ prominent local Republican. Mrs. Mcllhenny again entertained her guests today between 4 and 6 o’clock, with a luncheon at her city residence. Sunday morning the ladies attended chureh and in the afternoon Mrs. Gustaf Westfeldt will give the young ladies a dinner. The plans for next week, a8 now arrang- ed, provide for a visit to the French bat- tleship Tage and the"U. 8. battleship Texas ‘on Monday morning. That evening Ars. Robert Parker will give an elaborate din- ner, at which a karge number of persons will be invited to meet the President's daughter. Mr. Robert Parker is ea brother to John M. Parker, the ex-pesident of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange, who was with President Roosevelt during his re- cent Mississippi bear hunt. In fact, John M. Parker superintended and made ali t..e arrangements for this bear hunt. Tuesday evening is the grand Mardi! Gras ball, which winds up the festivities of car- nilval week. The Moilhennys will proba- bly go to Avery Island the following day, or possibly Thursday. At the home of the MclIihennys there is one of the typical old time negro mammies who served in the family before the war. Miss Roosevelt is getting from her many ideas that she doubtless never had before concerning ‘the condition of the better class of blacks in the better class of southern homes. The old eolored woman is treated more like an elder member of the faimly than a r servant in every respect but that of social equality. And what is more, the old mam- my herself is more opposed to anyfhting that smacks of social equality than the white people of the South themselves. Visitation Euchre and Hop.

If it shall do as big a weeks business, or anywhere near it, as it did upon its other visit to the city, it will furnish another proof that St. Louls is getting to be more than a one-week stand. When the time comes that St. Louls fg more than a one-week stand then it will be time to begin to talk about an- other theater or two, but not till then. As the matter stands at present, it is all the managers of the syndicate, which con- trols the Olympic and Century, can do to find first-class attractions enough to fill in the thirty to forty weeks apiece that the theaters are supposed to keap open. It is because of a lack of first-class attrac- tions that a cheap show is run into these houses every once in a while. There is no doubt that with the increase in the number of transients in St. Louls, there are a number of attractions that can play to more than one week. ‘Ben Hur’ did it twice and “The Prince of Pilsen” certaifily could have stayed another week when it was here. It will probably do near- ly as well this week. Even the Castle Square company, which has been singing all the old operas most of the time it has been here—operas that have been heard time and time again— has done a good business for three weeks, and that with a lot of good counter at- tractions. It will not be many years before 8t. * Qouls will be capable of supporting a wi ‘ run, as do. Boston and Chicago. The World's Fair year ought to set the ball rolling. .

Fisher, who has secured the American rights throypgh Frank W. Sanger to the new opera ‘Princess of Kensington,” sailed for London last Wednesday with a view of getting an idea of the plece so as to make a big production of it in this country next season. Basi] Hood and Ed- ward German are the authors. Mr. Fisher will also inspect the new opera to be brought out at the Lyric Theater in Aprih which is by Owen Hall and Sydney Jones, although he will not remain abroad suf- ficient'y long to attend the production. The rehearsals will give him a fair idea of what will be necessary in America. as he owns the rights also to this new opera. Henry Miller has at last been emancipat- ed from the gloomy atmosphere of hope ‘lesa, depressing, distressing, weepy plays. The new order of things goes into effect with “The Taming of Helen,” which will be seen at the Olympic tonight, the moredn comedy written especially fqr him by Richard Harding Davis. Henceforth Mr. Miller has free license to smile, to jest, to look cheerful, to be happy, and to make ar- dent love to the heroine in the play, In a manner to satisfy the most fastidious fem- inine patron of the matinees. And looking back on Henry Milller’s career, one is forcibly impressed by the fact that it is indeed high time that some one rescued the actor from the oppressive atmosphere with which careless authors have so often surrounded him. If ever an actor had a hard time in portraying down-hearted, miserable, unlucky heroes, Henry Miller is that man. Fine artistic creatiqns these“portrayals were, no doubt; everyone concedes that Mr. Miller ts in many respects an actor unequalled on the American stage. Yet, look at the round of dejected lovers and disheartened heroes he has played. Mr. Miller's earliest success as a dejected lover was as Kerchival West in “Shen- andoah.’’ After this came Mr. Owen in “Liberty Hall.” It will also be remem- bered that his part in “‘Trelawney of the Wells’’ was that of a man who loved pas- sionately, but generously relinquished the girl to a lover more able to take care ~f her. Probably Mr. Miller’s finest and m: sat remarkable portrayal was that of Sydney Carton, the man who loves and loses, in “The Only Way.’ He also played John Hinds, the English officer who loves: and loges in “Brother Officers."”” Then there was “Richard Savage,” a jet black mass of unadulterated gloom, which even Miller's fine art did not save. All this, however, is to be changed now, and smiles will replace tearful weeps. Mr. Miller has the part of a young lover in “The Taming of Helen’ and will appear to special advantage in tne light comedy scenes. Creatore will bring his band of sixty men to the Odeon, over. half of whom are so- joists on their several instruments, and Mme. Barrili, the famous concert soprano, whose repotoire is co-extensive with the best there is in modern song. Creatore has appeared in all the large cities of the Union eince his last record-making vistt to St. Louis—record-making because it was here that the general public, guided by the press, got the first real giimpse of the man and his methode and pronounced both good. Miss Anna Lichter, whose clear soprano notes have been heard many times by 8t. Louis theatergoers, is perhaps the most versatile member of the forces of Henry WwW. Savage, who owns such productions as the Castile Square Grand Opera Com- pany, “The Prince of Pilsen,” “The Sultan of Bulu” and “‘Peggy from Paris." Miss Lichter was until last week a mem- based i. of “The Prince of Pilsen” company. r > : oe ~ ee ee .

CARDINAL GIBBONS THE OBJECT OF CRITICISM PIERRE, 8. D., Feb. 21.—The divorce laws of South Dakota will not be changed at this session of the legislature, because of the effective lobby work by the hotel- keepers and the lawyers, The hotel men don't want the divorce laws changed because it would drive away the six-month residenters; and the law- yers, or a considerable element of them, oppose changing the present easy incor- poration laws because they have worked up a big business incorporating concerns under this state's laws, getting bianket _ Charters to go where they choose and do whatever business they please.

THE STATE'S CLAIM TO THE LAND IT IS SEEKING Was Once Included in the Territory of Arkansas, But Was Ceded to the Indians When Barbour Made the Cherokee Treaty. . Special to the Post-Dispateb. | : McRae has introduced in ihe Houge a bill changing .the western boundary of the state of Arkansas to a line parallel with the present Mmits, bait '4 miles further west. To take the bill as it was presented to the House, the new line will .begin at “a point 40 miles west of the southwest cor- ner of the state of Missouri and run south to the right bank of~the Red river, and thence down said river to the line of the State of Louisiana."’ The bill provides for the annexation of a strip of land # miles wide and about 300 miles long, in all about 12,000 square miles, or 7,000,000 acres. Arkansas claims this land and alleges that it was illegally taken and given to the Indians. . Arkensas wag organized as a territory in 15]9. The boundaries at that time were the present boundaries of the state. In 1824, by act of Congress, the western boun- dary was extended forty miles. thus ceding to the territory of Arkansas a strip of land #4 miles wide by 300 miles long. In 1828. James Barbour, then secretary of war, by a treaty with the chief of the Cherokee Nation, abolished the boundary lina established by Congress and gave this strin to the Indians. This treaty was ratified ty the Senate. McRae’s Bill Is to Regain the Land. Mr. McRae’s bill looks to the recession of this strip of land to his state.

This, it is believed, will prove an obstacle to the efforts of the Arkansas deiegation in Congress to get the land back. It i8 in the most valuable part of the Inaian Territory,.and if Arkansas coul: acquire it something like $70,000,000 of values would be to the state’s wealth. while its area would be increased by nearly 20 per cent. But in this connec- tion it must be remembered that the atat- ute of limitations has its say. At this late date it is doubtful if Congress will give Ar- kansas seven. million acres of land in the Indian Territory. While her represenia- tives in Congress are making a hard fight to obtain this concession, other members of Congress who are listening to the de bate, when the vote is taken, will be found on the negative side of the proposition. Why McRae Is in a Hurry. There is a great deal of haste on the part of Mr. McRae to have the bill passed, and this is explained in ‘the first part of the second paragraph of the Dill, which says: ‘That when and as soon as the said state of Arkansas shall legally agree to change and extend her western hound- ary HMne in accordance with the first section of this act, then that part of the Indian Territory between the western boundary line of said state and the boundary as fixed by thé act of 1824, shall be detached from the Indian Territory and become a part of the state of Arkaneas.”’ As soon,as the statehood bill is passed the new state of Oklahcma will have. in Cosgress two representatives and two United States senators. Their cpposition to a change in the western boundary L!nze would be sufficient to prevent the passage of the bi, which would take from the Indian Territory a large amount of land. While the new state of Oklahoma may not at first include the Indian Territory, there is no doubt that it is the present intention of. Con to eventually combine the two, at will be suffictent to cause the effective opposition of Oklahoma represen- tatives in Congress to any s efforts. a ee as: b nUURS 10 CROSS STATE BY TROLLEY Missouri Central Expect to Make Fast Time to This City. The Missour! Central Blectric Railway Co., Capital 84,500,000, has applied to the secretary of etate for a charter. If the company can succeed in its: plans it will be rurning electric cars from Kansas City to St. Louls In time for the Worlds Fair.’ The promoters believe they can make the run in six hours. with cars somewhat larg- er than the Suburban line cars. The charter asked for is to permit the building of a road from Glasgow, where the Alton crosses the Missouri river, through Fayette, Columbia, Fulton, New Fiorence and Troy to 8t. Quive Junction. 2? miles from St. Louis. A branch is also to run from Glasgow north to Brookfield, an4 from Brookfieid to Quive Junction. As soon as this can be built the promoters say a line from Glasgow to Kansas City following the Misouri river is to be built. George B. Harrison of Glasgow is presi- dent of the company, Gen. E. P. Price of Keyteaeville is vice-president and Howard Ellia of New Florence is secretary. Other directors are BE. W. Grant of Fulton, W. Ww. Garth of Columbia and H. W.

LITTL® ROCK, Ark., Feb. 2.--The af- fairs of the state penitentiary are to be investigated. The legislature has taken the matter up, and the following resolution has been passed: “Whereas, the governor of Arkansas, in his message to this Gencral Assembly, did intimate, accuse and insinuate that the conduct of the members of the penitentiary board, other than himself, had been such in certain specified particulars as to make them deserving of the censure and con-| {fs . @emnation of the people of the state on ac- count of alleged misconduct in their official eral of Arkansas, who did, on Thursday, Feb. 12, 1008, agswert and charge that the official conduct of the governor of Arkan- @as had been such that he deserved im- peachment; and, “Whereas, the opinion prevails that the controversy has reached a stage demanding proper investigation and true statesmanlike action on the part of this, the present leg- istature; now, therefore, “Be it resolved by the House of Repre- sentatives ef thé Thirty-fourth Assembly of Arkafisas, that the ways and means committeé be directed to inquire into the @liegutidgs and accusations made by both wides of: the controversy and report their finding to this House. Sald committee shiall be vested with full and complete authority to cal] and examine witnesses and take testimony of whatever kind and char acter they may deem proper and competent; that they preserve this testimony in detail to be téd to this House with their re- port, amd that they be authorized to report in Sver manner and form they may deem bést in the premises.” It has long been the policy of Arkansas, as it hasbeen , iiige convi laborers, but 7 ; € in abeses.

Fimally the solons of Arkangas conoluded that the proper solution of the problem was for the sovereign State of Arkansas to become a farmer on ites own hook. Two years ago a commission was ap- pointed with power to select and buy @ Plantation where the etate’s prigoners could be worked for and by the state. The commission was composed of Gov, Davis, Hon. T. C. Monroe, Attorney-Gen- eral George W. Murphy. Commissioner of Agriculture H. T. Bradford and Secretary of Btate John W. Crockett. .The members mepected several plantations, some ef them near Little Rock Finally it wae decided by all the members except Gov. Davia that the most desirable property for the purpose waa the Urquhart place, In Linooln County, 70Vv. Davis objected strenuously to the se- lection, and when he found that his col- leagues would not yield he refused to at- tend the meetings of the commission. The other meiabers proceedod to make th rehase of the plantation, regardless of the ag gh protests, and he gave warn- in hat he would bri the matter to the attention of the legislature at the seasion and endeavor to prevent 8 mmation of the sale. he place or’ ppcetion selected for the state convict farm contains 11,000 acres, a 0 a are under cultiva- on. a6 a frontege of seven mil on the Arkndasas river and runs Back toe nsuing @ con- wards the Arkansa@ City branch ‘of the] Iron Mountain Railroad a distance that varies from two to three miles, The near- est railroad station is Varner, a sort o feudal bailiwick owned end controll by Capt.

Objections Made By Gov. Davis. Goy. Davis, when he made his protest ageinet the purchase of the place, urged that much of it was unfit for cultivation, being overrun with “Johnson” grass, and teo swampy to be reciaimed without an inordinate expenditure of money. The other members of the commission came back with a statement that the area of real swamp iand in the antire tract was inappreciable, and was really very valuable because of the rich growth of timber on it. They also pointed to the fact that the place drains away from the Arkansas river through two or more large bayous, and is never overflowed, being protected by the same levee that prevents the yearly inurdation of all the plantations within 10 miles of the Ar kansas river at that point. That there is large seporten of th @ still in e woods not denie it is urged that this is an advantage rather than a drawback.

After beating his head against the stone walls of his iron-grated cage, vear'ng him- self in numerous. places with his claws, and inflicting all the bodily injury to him- self that he was capable of, he deliberately plungéd into the large tank in the center of the cage, placed his head under ihe water, and stubbornly held it there until he ended his existence by drowning. Old J was undoubtedly insane. For a. dozen years Jack .lived in peace and genuine domestic felicity wit hhis wife, “Queenie Choctaw."" Several litters of cubs were born to them in their city park home. They were given away by the city author- ities as soon as they became of w a ero ears ago the last lot of cubs—four aa a r--were born.

Al his old acquaintances are charitable enough now to credit his cruel and erratic conduct ef the last two years to an unbalanced mental condition. Choctaw Jack and Queenie Choctaw, were born in the Choctaw nation, Indian Terri- tory; north of Partie, Tex., in 1889. A party ° of hunters from Paris captured them. Among the Derty was George H. Green, present United States martha’ for the northern district of Texas. Mr. Green was a warm friend of W. C. Connor of Dallas, and in 1890, wr‘le Mr. Connor ws serving as mayor of Dallas, Mr. Green had the Choctaw bear cubs brought down from Paris and presented to him. Jack Tried to Get at Major Connor. Mr. Connor, who is now president of the Dallas Terminal Railroad, said this even- ing: “I’m sorry to hear of the suicide of old Jack. I remember well -when George Green surprised me with the present of Jack and Queenie. I was asleep at y | home on rvay street and during the ’ Might heard considerable of a racket in my front yard.

Dooley, the City Hosptial’s second re- markable lockjaw patient, has been sus- tained through six days of torture by the power of 32 drops of pure carbolic acid, ad- ministered hypodermically each day. The poison is given every three hours in four- drop doses. It has sustainde him go far, it may make him well. He has a good fighting chance Dr. Nelitert says.

He lost his shoes, and was compelled to ran over ic¥Y roads. Shortly after he entered the hospital tetanus developed and he was moved to the little room where brave Fireman Will- iam Wand, aided by the same deadly acid, made his futile struggle for life. Dr. Nelitert resorted to carbolic acid at once. He increased the dose, giving Dooley three times the quantity administered to Wand. The acid has checked the tetanus’ prog- réss so far. Dooley is in the same condi- tion as he was three days ago, neither bet- ter nor worse; a hopeful sign, for if tetanus can be held in check 10 days it may be con- quered. The action of the acid is direct. It reachés the tetanus germs, multiplying in Dooley’s veins, envelopes them and kills them in Cxactly the same manner as if poured on a fiy.

Although in the care of the police Alma Linton, aged 12, is “‘lost.’’ For 3% hours she has been a wanderer away from home. Most of that time she has been in the cus- teody of the Carondelet police. They have tried their best to find her home, but thelr efforts were unavailing. Although she is now with Matron Kintz- ing at the Four Courts, she is as much lost as if she were out tn the wilderness, except that strangers give her food and warmth, and she does not suffer while search is being made for her home. She lost her way while returning on a visit to her uncle, Will Stringer, a stohe- cutter, living on Oregon street. She went to sleep in the car, and when she woke up had forgotten where she lived. Her par- ents moved a week ago from 1223 North Market street, and she was not familiar with the locality of her new home.

He filed a cross-bill mak- ing the same charges against his wife that she had incorporated in her petition. The couple have been married 22 years. Here are some of the “Restless Thoughts’” Mrs. Vaughan wrote in her famous diary: ‘Thinking the restless thoughts again. Tonight I am lonely; my heart strings twang. I am thinking of what m ght have been. Oh, my love, who loves but me, come. “Every moment is filled with wishes. “Why was this given to me, if I cannot find reciprocity?’’ She says in another place: “Am so lonely tonight; come back, oh, my love, so far you are. I'll not give you t jast. Have found a victim: m Oh, Baby ‘you are naughty. hop, who presided at the tr al, a woman with too much time on her hands.

How Tens of Thousands of| Workmen Labor Together Without Confusion. EVERYTHING SUPERVISED BY DIVISION OF WORKS Specifications Are Accurate and Com- plete in Detail and Every Page is Signed—No Chance for an Ar- gument by Contractors. Few St. Lovisans, not to speak of dwell- ers in more remote localities, understand the organization under which the great buildings of the Levisiana Purchase Expo- sition are rising in air and its grounds are assuming the level and slope planned by the designers under which on any bright day, éven now in midwinter, over 1500 work- men are laboring, and under which, next spring and summer, from 10,000 to 16,000 men will lift and hammer and saw each independently, yet harmoniously and with out logs of power to the service of one great end. All the physical work on the site is planned and supervised by the division of works, one of the four co-ordinate branches of the Exposition’s administration; yet less than 50 men of all the hundreds at work on the site are employed and paid directly by the Exposition. The workmen are nearly all employed by contractors. The small contingent on the site which is under sal- ary from the division of works are all ex- perts, and have the duty of geeing that the plans and specifications for the work are carried out; that the excavated earth Is taken from the proper place and deposited in the proper place; that the specified num- ber of piles, of the specified soundness and length, are driven in the specified places; that lumber of the specified dimensions is fastened with nails and bolts and rods of the specified size, in the specified place. The Outline Of the Work. Taking one of the big buildings as an ex- ample, the routine by which the work is done fs this: The architect of the building prepares in his office, in St. Paul or Kansas City, New York or Boston, small scale drawings—ele- vations, planes and sections—showing his de- signs, and other drawings calied “full-size details,"" showing the decorative features— capitals, friezes, cartouches, bases, spand- rels, etc.—in their full size. The engineers and draughtsmen of the division of works prepare ‘‘construction drawings,’’ showing how and where the lumber, iron and eteel must be erected to carry out these designs. The specification writer of the division of works describes in words, with painstaking definiteness, the kind and dimensions or lumber, iron and steel, the kind and mix- ture of paint, the character of roof, etc., that is required in the work. He aijso writes the time that the work must be delivered complete and the penalty for failure to complete it in time. All this material, being the plans and specifications for the work, is copied by process and copies are given to contractors who desire, in their pariance, ‘‘to figure the job." These contractors send in sealed bids, accompanied by certified checks to evidence good faith, stating the amount of money tor which they will do the specified work. Bids are opened in the presence of al] the bidders and the work is awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. The contractor Sves his bond and signs his contract in duplicate, which includes signing every page of the specifications and every page of the drawings and frequently involves the writing of the firm name sev- eral thousand times. Contractor Takes Hold of the Job. The contractor is now ready to begin his physical operations, and the work of the di- vision of works, as it concerns this job, is finished except to watch that the plans and specifications are followed out. For this purpose a superintendent in the pay of the division of works, an expert builder, of- ten an architect, is assigned to be always on the work during working hours and to ob- serve the erection of every stick of timber on the job. With a building covering some 14 acres, on which several hundreds of men are at work in a score or more of gangs, this is not a sinecure, espectally if the contractor has an inclination § to “skimp” his work. The superintendent al- so sees that the work is done with dispatch that promises completion at or before the specified time. He records each day the number of each class of workmen on the job. The division of works, through this superintendent, keeps in touch with the work. The contractor’s name to each page of the specifications prevents argument and misunderstanding, and as the director of works is, by the egpectfications, made the final arbiter in case of dispute, and, as he can always enforce his findings by stopping the contractor's monthly payments, results are rapidly achieved, as is always the Gage in a strongly centralized organization. The contractor !s not compelled to carry the full cost of his building until it is com- pleted, but is paid each month 85 per cent of the value of the work he has done durin the month, The other 15 per cent is hel out until the work is complete. A blank “Requisition for Payment” is filled out and signed by the contractor and certified by the exposition superintendent. A large number of important contracts on the Fair grounds have already been fin- ished, such as the River des Peres channe!l- way, the three engine houses, the press building and the electrical railway, and the cortractors have been paid in full. The government, library. physics, dor- mitory and gymnasium bulidings are, gen- erally speaking, not being erected under the direct supervision of the division of works, but these works are Exposition contracts and employ large forces of men. Each general contractor lets aub-contracts to from one to twenty sub-contractors. Even on so comparatively small an amount of work ag the excavating and reveting of @¢ lagoons, an $30,000 job, the general con- tractor, the Bray Construction Co., which is doing the grading and excavating, has called to its ald as a sub-contractor a car- yo y s~ the severing. and he again has riving o @ pile sub-contractor Piles and posts to a n the big buildings theregre as 15 sub-contractors, each arged ate “; certain portion of the work, and each re- sponsible under a penal bond, not to the xposition, but to the genera! c er — all cases the S*neral contractor him- aes the carpentering and framing of the structure, by far the most important part of the work. contractors and sub-contractors, whose number is leas than . employ the thousands of workmen cn a ® grounds.

Spocial Cable to the Post-Dispatch. (Copyright, 1903, by the Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Feb. 21.—“One policeman with 2 club is worth ten without,” is the conclu- sion Deputy Police Commissioner Piper of New York has arrived at, after having studied the London police system all this week, Capt. Piper came her for rest, he says, but he has been working hard 12 hours every day. “Any opinion I may have given hereto- fore regarding the London police arrange- ments, necessarily were superficial,’ he continued, ‘it is only now that I am be- ginning to dig down into the matter. “One thing that is perfectly clear is that the police problems here are quite differ- ent from those in New York and most American cities, because of the different conditions and the different people. “With us the natural propensiiy ts to regulation, if it can be done with safety. Here the inclination is to obey the law. ‘Londoners are very subservient to the police, and Go not mind being held up for a little time. Our people are in a greater hurry to ‘get there;’ they ara@ more impa- tient, and less amenable to authority. The club with us is a necessity. Whenever the London police get into difficulty they are pretty helpless, though ordinarily they get along without the club, “That the London police are polite is un- questionable, but they are obeyed so read- ilv they thave nothing to ruffle them. “In street cleaning Londoners are some- what ahead of us.”’ Rethg asked what he thought of the con- dition of Picadilly Circus and Regent street when thronged with giddy women at night, Capt. Piper answered. “There is nothing as bad as that In any thoroughfare in New York. The police hare don't appear to have instructions to inter- fere with the women, but such a state of affairs would not be tolerated in New York, especially in the main thoroughfares."’ WORSE EVERY YEAR. Plenty of St. Louis Readers Have the Same Experience. Don’t neglect an aching back. It will get worse every year. Backache is really kidney ache. To cure the back you must cure the kidneys. If you don’t, other kidney ills follow— Urinary troubles, diabetes, Bright’s disease. A St. Louis citizen tells you how—the cure is easy. A. Christman, carpenter, of 4400 Cote Brilliante avenue, says: “Anyone who follows my calling requires a good sound back, but when for at least three years you bring any extra strain on that part of your anatomy you feel aches and pains, you naturally are anxious to get rid of them. Ever on the outlook for something to stop the trouble, particularly eo when in its later stages too frequent action of the kidney secretions became observable, I chanced one evening to see an advertise- ment about Doan’s Kidney Pills, Next day I sent to the Wolff-Wilson Drug. Co. for a box and commenced the treatment. It cured me. I know Doan’s Kidney Pills act as represented, or I could not be in- duced to recommend thera publicly.” For sale by all dealers. ice 50 cents.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 21.-The fact that the legislature of Delaware is taking no steps to have funds appropriated to prosecute Mrs. Cordelia Botkin, now in custody in this city for the murder of Mrs. John P. Dunning and her sister, Mre. Joshua Dean,.of Dover, Del., will not in- terfere with the trial of the charge against the accused woman. District Attorney Byington says he has gone over the testimony carefully. and sees no reason why a second conviction could not be secured with the testimony the prosecution will be able to produce, and he certainly will not consent to her release from custody, nor will he turn her over to the Delaware authorities for trial until a jury of San Francisco residents has again passed upom the question of her guilt or Innocence.

DRESDEN, Feb. 21.—The report published in the United States by a news agency that the wife of an American dentist is seeking a divorce on account of-the rela- tions of her husband with the former Crown Princess Louise of Saxony appears too be a revivification of the gossip at the time of the princess’ elopement, and, so far as the divorce is concerned, seems wholly unbased on fact. A dentist here did teach the princess to ride a bicycle and charged time for so doing at the same rate as he charges for his professional services. The dentist once made the remark that he “would just as soon wheel with tie Crown Princess as work on her teeth.’’ $20.00, to. .

PITTSBURG, Pa., Feb. 21.—An exciting political campaign and election has just been completed, resulting in the election of William B. Hays as recorder of this city. Few expected the result, in view of which the following published letter from Hays’ divorced wife makes interesting read- ing. Hays, who is a Democrat, had been villi- fied py his opponents and the fact that his wife secured a divorce from him some years ago was a point of attack. Then his wife wrote this open letter: “That William B. Hays, my former hus- band, will defeat John C.

PRETTY hot pees City Purposes Placing a Public Bath in It ——Jacob A. Riis Advises Against Such Use of Breathing Places in Populous Districts. 2 2 2 2 & NE of the most useful public parks in St. Louis is menaced by the proposal ( ) to erect in its center an ordinary bathhouse. This is Carr Park. The vandalism ini this case is all the more remarkable because of the siz of the park, whieh is practically only one block in extent. A big bathhouse ed where at present a handsome fountain exists, would, in the opinion of many ot the best judges, not only destroy the beauty of the park for all time, but would im- pair rather than strengthen ‘its usefulness to the public health. As an open breathing space in a thickly settled neighborhood, Carr Park now fulfills « purpose not accomplishedgto a similar degree by any other park in St. erect- Lou ‘ LOO OR OT ca Re i LO ee eS — “Bone ie a i RR PARK ENDAN \ = ERAT SOUTH.

While there is no opposition to a new public bath and indeed there is a well- recognized need in St. Louis of numerous such institutions, it is felt by many that they would be wholly out of place in the center of such spots as pretty little Carr Park. This was expressed the other day by no less an authority than Jacob A. Riis of New York in his lecture on “The Battle With the Slums.” M once called the most useful citizen of New York because of his great knowledge of the life of the poor in the crowded tenement districts, said in his lec- ture: “Never permit the building of a bath- R.

Some day, when it becomes 4 matter of tremendous expense to acquire them, their need may be realized. Small breathing places in congested neighborhoods in which children who can- not afford to travel to the far-away pa ks ina'y get fresh air at their play are more necessary than the greater parks. © Missouri! Park has been given over to the Exposition building, and Washington Park was utlized for the new City Hall. The time approaches when downtown OKLAHOMA'S INCE the publication in the Post-Dis- S patch Sunday Magazine of Feb. 1 of the facts surrounding the mysterious suicide at Enid, O. T., who confessed upon his deathbed to being J. Wilkes Booth, there has been throughout the country a ‘wide- spread discussion of the possibility of Cael story being true. Now comes an apparently easter gthent?- cated tale from St. Lou's man support- ing the story that J. Wilkes Booth escaped at Garrett's farm.” About 30 yvear. ago. Mr. G. R. Kenamore, now of St. Louis, lived at Salem, Mo. In the town was a barber who was known as a reticent but truthful man, and one ot varied experiences. One day Mr. Kenamore sat down in his chair to be shaved. It happened to be Lin- coln's birthday anniversary and the conver- sation turned to the death of Lincoln. Mr. Kenamore expressed the belief that the as- — Bovth, had been killed. The barber WILKES grunted in a dissenting wav. ‘You evigently don’t believe that Booth is dead” said Mr. Kenaruore. “I Mave good reason tc krow that he was not killed as history relates,’’ the barber replied. “How is that?’’ asked Mr. Kenamore. The barber told the following story: “Tl was a soldier in the Confederate cav- alry. After the surrender of Lee, the Colenel of my regiment picked out about twenty of us and told us we could go with him to his ranch in Texas, where he would give us employment until we could get on our feet again. We rode through the states with him to the ranch, which was about 50 miles from the Mexico border. “We had been there a few days, when late at night, a party of about fifteen men rode up to the house. The Colonel went out and talked with them for some time, when the whole party dismounted and came into the ranch house. The cook was routed BOOTH MYSTERY out and prepared supper for the party, and the boys went out ard roped fresh horses. The Colonel gave them provis’ons to last for a few days, and the party rode away to the south. Not a name was mentioned, and the conversation was scant and con- fined to the concerns of the moment. “The following morning at breakfast the boys were unusually silent; they were prob- ably thinking, as I was, of the mysterious visitors of the night before. — ~ “ ‘Roys,” said the colonel suddenly, dent Lincoln has been assassinated.’ “Every fellow stopped eating. away from every source of news, were no malls and no newspapers.

But taken as a whole, ft represents the great undertaking as it will look when finished end open to the pub‘ic. Building ‘a World's Fair is a big under- taking, and making a bird's-eye view of 't is no small affair. The painstaking labor bestowed upwun a great bird's-eye view, both artistic and mechanical, 's enormous. The original Woodward & Tiernan lltho- graph {s in n'ne colors, each requiring a separate impression, The reproduction by the Post-Dispatch is in four colors, ail prnted on one prees—yellow, red, biveand black In the order named. The bird's-eye view was begun several monihs ago, before all of the plans were fully matured. The origitie! drawing was made by George Helfensteller, whose first duty was to make the ground plan, draw- ing the ground d!imensiors of each building and feature in pencil, in such nice perspec- tive that from the viewpoint of the spec- tator, each would appear in its proper att nln Thew the eleva‘ions were drawn in like manner, and Mr. Helfensteller made a beautiful water color painting, the exact size of the lithograph desired. Had the artist possessed the entire plans of the great picture his work would have been greatly simpl'fied, but it was neces- sary for him to procure from the archi- tects each plan. as developed, and even after the full ground plan and clevations were drawn he was compelled to alter a tower or a cornice here and there to con- form to the architectural changes made. A “key” drawing was then made by lay- ing a sheet of transparent gelatine over the water color ard tracing with a litho- grapher's needie all outlines of buildings and the outlines of each color to be laid on. These outlines were to be followed in preducing the color print. The lines traced on the gelatine were filled in with rubbing ink, which adheres on'y in the engraved lines, The ge‘ati..c wasaid on a polished iNthographic stone, the Ink in the engraved. cut Ines adhering to the stone. An impres- sic. from the stone was taken on sub- stantial] paper that would not streten or shrink, and this key was used merely as a guide for the color work. While still fresh the key was powdered with red chalk, and one ‘offset’ for each vf the nine colors was made. by taking a powdered impression, face down on stones, running through the preftses and leaving bt chalk on the stones.

But Mundus fe] in with a band of “rustiers,’’ who ted him from bad to worse, until he became a hovrere-thief and outiaw, with a price wpon his head, hunted by the officers and despised by all good men. The wife bore thy slights of the neighbors in silence, hoping by ler paiience and gemie ivove io win him back, for he occasionally visited her and iavished fair promiees. One night Mundus came home drunk and in quarrelsome mood. A family row en- sued, and then “he astruck her in the face with his open hand. That blow transformed the patient wife, the gentle, loving woman, into a murderess and outlaw. Being of a high-strung. evensitive nature, emarting more under the humiliation than from pain, she snatched her husband's pistol from its hostier and shot the outlaw through the breast, and then, woman-like, all the bit- terness gone, she knelt before the prostrate form and begged forgive.s.ss from the gsi- lent lips.

For a year he has been a regular visitor to the livery and undertaking establish- ment conducted by Mr. Quinn and his father-ir-law. Thomas McGrath, at 4126 Cass avenue. He was first attracted to the stable when his father gave him a pretty black pony. The boy would come to the stable almost daily for his mount Soon he grew fascinated with other things around the Cass avenue establishment in addition to the pony. He decided that he would like to go riding with the carriage dhivers and the hearse drivers. He made trips to the cemeteries with funerals and trips to the cemeteries with ‘boxes’ prior » funerals. ‘Later he made trips whenever permitted with the embalmers, and when a post-mor- tem wae conducted at the undertaking ariors 9e managed to attend ft, if there was any possible manner of “squeezing in” French mansard roof of slates, pierced with many gabed windows and surmounted by tall chimneys.

Johnnie seems to have none of the aver- sion that children of tender years—and many grown persons—have to things fune- real.

The other half extends out Gravois road from Grand to Meramec street and follows that to Morg.aferd road, to Tower Grove Park, west.on Arrenai to King’s highway boulevard and then north to Manchester avenue. Manchester avenue forms the northern boundary, the city limits the western. In the area thus bounded, foyr-fifths of the city’s product is raised.

AT is the new St. Louis going to do toward preserving one of the glories of the old St. Louis—the Weimar oil paintings in the dome of the court- house ” These celebrated paintings are crumbling rapidly to ruin. They are peeling off. Recent rains have leaked through the roof of the great dome and soaked to the in- her surface, causing the paint to peel off in flakes that now hang down in pathetic appeal to the public for restoration. This peeling, if not arrested, will ruin the paintings within a few months, in the opinion of artists and art connoisseurs who have lately observed the progress of the destruciuon. According to the opinion of an expert retoucher. the pictures could be saved and restored if the work were undertaken without delay. » Should the restoration of the paintings be neglected, World’s Fair visitors will marvel at the lack of pride which permits these historic products of a distinguished artist’s brush thus to go to ruin.

It is held by some that the St. Louis courthouse is architecturally the finest building in the United States, with the ex- ception of the Capitol at Washington. The bullding is one of the chief sights in the city for the trained eye of the wor.d- wanderer. The Weimar paintings are a part of the bullding. so to speak. They were painted upon the paster of the elliptical panels juet as the courthouse. was being com- pleted, more than forty yea:s ago.

Of dauntless Spirit, the young artist would not succumb until! he had com- pleted his work. . There were times during the four months required to paint the pictures when he was carried to the courthouse and up to his scaffo'd and carr'ed home at n ght after his day's work with the brush. It was exhausting work, even for a strong man. The pictures were painted on the plaster, in the position which they oecupy today, far up in the dome. Weimar worked on the scaffolding left by the men who built the dome. It was awkward work and perlious withal, but the artist never flinched. Weak almost to fainting at times, he plied his Wush without ceasing. The worder was that he did not fall from the scaffold and die violently before his work was cone. Final.y artist's paneis, humble the paintings were fin'shed, dreams were transferred to and Charles Welmar went to his home the second floor of the the northwest corner of Nine- teenth street Bnd Franklin avenue, where, but a few months later, he died at the early age of 34.

With him it was always struggle. He was very poor when he died. Toward the end of his life he began to sel some of his pictures at prices con- siderably larger than he had received be- fore.

Factor, which name will suffice for the purpose of this article, had been sub- jected to the annoyances of frequent changes in the service in his home for a year or two, and had listened to his wife's jeremiads on the seryant question until his patience was worn through. Part of his success In life was due to his ability as a handler of men. He had never had a strike in his factories, and invariably had the pick of mechanics and laborers. This, he claimed, was due to his system of fairness, to giving the employe a.) that was due him in wages and hours, and exacting his own due in return. One night his wife was servantless. Mr. Factor took her to an hotel for dinner. After it was over they talked about the servant question. The manufacturer soon grasped his wife's point of view as to the humber of hours’ service and the wage she thought proper for her servants. He saw that, under che existing labor conditions, it was ali wrong. His own system gras 80 much pay for so many hours work—no more, no less. He arranged a new schedule of hours and wages for his wife. She re- belled because his schedule raised her wage allowance one-half and reduced the hours of service materia ly. He argued that her failure to keep servants, and the conse- quent turmoil in her domestic system proved that it was wrong... He outlined for her a schedule of time and wages, based on that used in one of the departments in his awn factory in which women were em- ploved. If it took FO many women to ac- complish such results in his business, why should it not take so much help to make the mechinery of his home run smoothiy, rnd why was it net worth as much te him to ‘have ii so?

That was an Indian scene.’’ Weimar loved to paint the Indians and to mingle with them for purposes of art study. He was an odd genius, this Weimar, taking frequent trips into the wild North- west to live with the red men and sketch them and the virgin scenery amidst which they dwelt. From his boyhood he lived only for his art. Charles Weimar was born in Sichbourg, Prussia, but came with his mother and younger haf-brother and sisters to St. Louis in 1842. In 1850 he returned to Eu- rope to study art, having studied for a time under Pomerade, a French artist then resident in St. Louis. At Dusseldorf he re- he came back to St. Louis and opened a studio. He made several trips to the far North- west to live with the Indians and sketch them. He hunted with the red men and be- came well known to all the big chiefs, who held the artist in high esteem. Sometimes Weimer went alone on those expeditions, Ovee he Was accompanied by Henry Is- aacs, a well-known architect, and again by Capt. Blandofki, who was killed in the Camp Jacks fight. Weimer brought home many pencil sketches of Inidans. and mourtuin ecerery which he used in his oil work ’ Charles Weimar's widow; now Mrs. An- na Schleifarth, still lives. She resides with a ae avenue. Like Mr. Becker, she tréasures with tender care some of the paintings and sketches made -by her first husband. - Mr. Becker -tells how he once saved his brether’s paintings in the’ courthouse dome from destruction. Originally thére were eight, the smaller panels, above the large elliptical panels being decorated with fig- ures cf Liberty, Justice, Commerce and one figure, whose title Mr. Becker cannot recall. About a quarter of century ago, the coal soot having badly sol:éd the fres- coed celling, an Italian artist named Mira- goli, was employed to redecorate the dome. He plied his brush with vigor, American art not being to his taste. One day Mr. Becker walked down to the courthouse and found ——ma + a _ mamma raga mcm” ne (CT 7. * Po 8 AM 6. ce ae tn - st og * +s a wneere aes “4 . | ines -s, — per panels by Weimar and was getting his materials ready to paint out the large lowe? panels. Mr. Becker made immediate protest to the authorities, and the four pictures were saved. ' ~~ The picture on the east panel represents the ianding of Laclede upon the site of St. — Lvwuis In this pieturs Weimar made use of his Indian sketches. “De Soto Discov- ering the Missippi” is the title of the south panel. On the north panel is painted a scene representing citizens of: the village of St. Louls blackberrying near the town, pertaps fn the vicinity of Sixth and Olive streets, where they were attacked by In- diane. The western panel is decorated with a ; ture’of buffaloes and the sunset. that Mirogoli had painted out the four up- do them, and nothing else, So many hours’ work for so much pay was the system. If a servant was required to be on duty late at night that much free time was given her out of the day. The scale of wage was on the basis of cther skilled female help of equal value. One day out of the six be- longed, withoa&tt ‘question, to each servant. First-class living quarters was guaranteed each. Pay day came regularly each week. The principal servant occupied the place of forewoman, with limited authority. The discipline was practically the same as in one of his own factory departments. No loafing was allowed, hours of — idleness meant hours without pay. The scale of wages was liberal for good service, and none other was desired. Mrs. Factor shrugged her shoulders, but agreed to give the plan a fair test. She began last fall. Her staff of servants is the envy of her friends. Her menage runs as stnoothy as her husband's office. She no longer worries about her household af- faips because the servants chosen ,when she began could not be induced to leave her. It costs her more than it did in the old days of trouble, but it is worth the price. Her husband is satisfied. That was one way of vettling the servant problem. Labor statistics’ prove that the influx of women into the various fields of labor have driven -men into idleness. This, en the truth of the propositiot, in philosophy, that two bodies cannot occupy the same space at the same time. If the women are de- serting the home for the store and factory, why shoyid not the men_take their places? This is not a préposition for the humorist, but for the econgmist. — The man who has been displaced by a woman has not, usually, the highest earn- ing capacity.

B. Mumford, professor of animal husbandry, and the chicken will be recognized as a branch of study of sufficient dignity to demand the fll attention of a professor during the course. Registrar Irvin Switzler of the university states that this new branch has been added to the curriculum as a recognition of the important industry of poultry rais- ing and the fact that Missouri is the leading poultry state of the Union, the annual output of eggs and poultry amounting to millions of dollars. : This is a unique and important step in the progress of practical education. The Missouri motto, “Show Me,’ is to be applied to the vropagation of poultry. Eftsoons will resound through the classic halls, or at any rate, through the precincts of the agricultural college premises, the defiant crow of the rooster and the triumphant cackle of the hen. And soon—ah, soon!—that crow and that cackle will be brought down to a shriek, and then to a gurgle, for it is the purpose of the professor of poultry to slaughter the proud birds as a part of the course of instruction. occupy the chair of chickens. Orr, who is secretary of the Ameri- P ROF. T. E.

It should be stated that the university has not decided to authorize this degree, but that may come later; and, after-some prac- tical experience in the science, the honorar, degree of M. P. may be conferred. % It is the intention of the university to make this course of instruction thorough. The chicken will be followed from the egg to the market basket, every step ir its ca- reer as a commercial asset being ilus- trated to the class by Prof. Orr and his as- sistants, through practical demonstration. Just as in a medical college there are lec- tures and demonstrations, the latter being termed dissections, so in the Missouri State University there will be lectures upon the raising of poultry and practical demonstra- tions in the science, the real chicken being used for object lessons. For instance, take the egg. Prof.. Orr will tell his class of about a hundred stu- dents how to detect sterility in an egg. He will so train his pupils that they can ap- preciate a ‘bad egg’ by sight alone. As to chickens and other poultry fowls, Prof. Orr -will have the actual birds in hand, teaching his class how to judge be- tween the different grades of poultry, While the chicken, of course, will be the fow! par- amount, the duck, the goose, the guinéa, the turkey and perhaps even the peafowl will be demonstrated. The slaughtering and preparing of poultry for the market will be taught. The stu- dents will learn whether it is best to give the garrote to the chickens or chop off their heads with the hatchet.

Louis Fair. The museum is going to show every known animal mcunted in some life-like attitude. The construction of such an ex- hibit is a big work, and a great deal of yapier mache and pine is used in the course of it. When the workshop was visited last week the men were found putting the finishing touches on two of the beasts which are to be sent as delegates to represent their division of the animal kingdom at the ex- hibdition., One of them, a lion, had reached a stage of dcevelcpment where only the fur was necded to ecmplete it. It stood in a life-iike attitude, and its body of paste showed ribs and veins and musc‘es as nat- uraliy as that of a living animal. The oth- ereepecimen is a rhinoceros. This was in a more unfinished state. Here and there one could see pleces of the wire sheeting which is used beneath the skin to pad it out in semblance to the natural body.

Among his accomplishments, the chief taxidermist must possess a _ thorough knowledge of anatomy; he must under- stand modeling, and be able to get the proportions for a whole specimen from a skull or toe bones, much as the student of geometry builds ,his figure upon the given sides and angles. When an order is sent in the designer takes hie skin and skull, or whatever he has to build from, and gauges the other parts by comparing its relation to a stardard skeleton. Sometimes, as in the case of the ex- hibits to be sent to St. Louis, he goes to a menagerie to study from life. The next step is to set up the flat boards used to outline the legs and backbone. These are held in place by tron rods, amd are cov- ered with wire netting to give them the proper shape. The papier-mache, which is largely made of the pulp of old money and the usual paste and glue, is used in the same manner as sculptors’ clay. All of the de- tail and finishing work is done with it. It is the artistic part of the process. Finally, when the eyes have been put in place and the outer coat has been added, it is nearly two months since the com- mencement of the job; for, although an imitation lion or tiger may seem at first thought a simple affair, it is rather an in- tricate business to make a _ scientifically accurate reproduction of animal life from a board, a little wire, some paste, and a piece of fur. he oldest inhabited house of the d4q4 is Dunvegan Castle, in the I Sk) *, the seat of the McLeods of Mc par of whieh dates from the ninth an uf Pag : he ‘ ! “ elle Se ce a —_ -_ ere ; gh ’ 4u- MW — \" xm “I 4. > /_ iii’ | Wray wah . ~ Z ~% ~ =~ av PAA 8 4* .*+ we wath er ‘ ANT ELAS SA ge) \ \ee les ‘ a a Wan wah 4 er Se oa . a .* m wr « ‘ . killed and dreesed in the presence of the class, and by the students themse ves, thei- grades depending upoh me nicety with which they prepare the fow!s.

It is recognized that many farmers and cottagers are sadly lacking in knowledge of the proper way to handle chickens and other poultry.

A will be of wide interest to note whether the new mehtods of poultry ra!sing will become more firmly implanted, as a result of the teachings of Mr. Orr, ‘“‘profersor of poul- try.”” The raising of poultry has become largely a matter of machinery. The old sitting hen, with her dozen eggs under her body, has given place in extensive poultry yards to the new-fangled incubator, a mechanical] device which supplies the incubating heat. Chickens thus hatched are orphans. They have no fond mother to guide their baby footsteps and find proper nourishment for their tiny crops. Taking the place of the hen-mother jis another mechanical device, called a brooder. In this device the fluffy chicks are kept warm and cosy, and their first feed is given to them. They soon learn to do without a mother, and the familiar motto, “‘What Is Home Without a Mother ” has no meaning for the incubated brooder. Even in the nfatter of feeding the machine has been introduced.

Twat would be a physical im- possibility,.qwing to the great destruction of trees’ that was necessary in preparing the ground for the Fair. According to the terms of the occupation ef the site. the ground must be made “nark-like’’ by the World’s Fair company. The G0 acres of city park used by the Fair must be put in a condition sat'sfac- tory to the Board of Public Improvements ang the park commissioner. Mr. Ridgely states that features of the “restored”’ be determined. The public knows very well what changes have been made in the site. There are three very appreciable changes, which alter the appearance of the ground so greatly that it is unrecognizable to one who knew it were the site not octupied landscape are yet to the site before, even by buildings. These great landscape alter- ations are, briefly: The obliteration of ‘“‘The Wilderness,’ that great forest of trees, in the northwest corner of the park. The obliteration of Post-Dispatch Lake, the popular boating and skating property of the people. The burial of the the annihilation of ery along its curiously The trees have been their stumps grubbed been filled up and _ gigantic exposition buildings erected upon the site of it. The river has been put into a wooden coffin, to flow unseen beneath the feet of the millions who will tread above its grave in 1904. It is true that many trees, here and there in the Fair site. have been spared. but ‘“‘The Whiderness’’ is no more, and many other inviting groups of trees have been sacrificed. Practically the entire topography of the park site has been miaiterially altered. Photographers who, just before the work of ceneretion began, took Larch from va- River Des Peres and the picturesque scen- curving banks. chopped down and up. The lake has rious points in the site, now find it impos- sthle to determine thé location of those points. The photographs of a year ago are useless as guides. A stupendous change has been wrought. The ordinance approved May 16, 1901, un- der which the western half of Forest Park Was occupied as a World’s Fair site, re- quires the exposition company, within six months after the close of the Fair, to clear away all buildings, tracks and other struc- tures, and within 12 months after the close of the Fair to ‘‘restore”’’ the site by grad- ing, revairs, formation of walks and roads, planting of trees, shrubbery and flowers and laying of scd. The ordinance provides that all sewers, drains, conduits and water pipes placed by the World's Fair shall remain as _ the property of the city and that their placing shail be subject to the supervision and approval of ihe Board of Public It. prove- ments. The detail of this plan of restoration is to be determined Ly the board and the pro- posed increase of bond is to cover the es- timated cost of such work. That the plan proposed by Mr. Parsons and other experts ion landscaping. wil! in- c:ude the transplanting or setting of many trees is accepted es a foregone* conclu- sion. It is presumed, though not definitely settled, that the lagoons will take the place of Post-Dispatch Lake after the Fair for skating ard boating purposes. Just whut landscape work will be devised to, compensate for the loss of the winding River Des Peres. with its dimpled pools, its rippling rapids and its rustic bridges, must be left to the future. The people are vitally interested in this problem. Many were the sorrowful hearts when the great forest was being cut down. Each tree-stumyp seemed to ooze tears of remorse and regret. There are persons in St. Louig, of artistic. natures, Who were wont to roam through that virgin fcrest which gave Forest Park its mame. These continue to bewail the fall of the forest.

DR. HUGHES SAYS ST. LOUIS EDUCATION Is T T00 STRENUOUS. Eminent Alienist Considers Overwork the Greatest Objection to Modern Education. N THE recent discussion of St. Louis | school methods in the columns of the Post-Dispatch, Dr. C. H. Hughes, a prominent alienist in the city, advanced the suggestion that, perhaps, the greatest ob- jection to modern education here and else- where in the United States is that it is too strenuous. Dr. Hughes thinks the brains of teachers and pupils alike are being overworked. He FAays: “The true psychological aim of teaching should be to train and strengthen the brain and its mind powers, not to overload and break the brain. The gray matter or mental area of the brain is made up of cen- ters of reception, reflection, memory and expression. These centers are composed of millions of neurones, which register the memortes of the mind and coin memories and impressions into thought and emotion. “The neurones of the brain live and stow and strengthen like the organs of the body de, on adequate nutriticn and rest for their Gaily repair and recuperation. Profl'gate expenditure of brain force or inadequate rest and nutrition bring collapse. “The brain during its educational process whould be treated as the burdened body is, ®.. Judiciously rested and fed and timely ‘perated, The wise mh and the good prematurely. The health and strength of the entire body depend much on the tone and vigor of the brain. Hours of education or tasks of study that task the brain to pro- found weariness or that are imposed on the wearied brain, tend to damage. weaken and destroy the educaticn-sustafctng tone of the psychic neurones and make education abortive. “An individual should grow stronger in his nerve centers, that is, his body and mind, by educationa! training. else the edu- cational process is a failure. Brain tone and muscle tone should neither be impaired. Neither mind, nerve centers nor muscle nerve centers should be overstrained by education. If excess @xists {n either, the other suffers and moderate mental and physical exercise should be the rule, cou- pled with sunlight. fresh air, good suffi- clent food and timely rest, alternative to all mental labor. “The superstrenuous life in study that burns the midnight lamp and uses the first beams of the morning's sun in addi- tion and too much physical exertion with it, is apt to make one color-blind in his judgment and iealty weak, where educa- tion should make strong. The colleges are just now rather overdo'ng the strenuous part tn this direction. as with fvotball, rowing, etc. “Pedagogy might well consider the psy- logy of jess mental cramming and the r chiatry of more adequate brain rest nutrition in the brain and mind in the ling up of ental athletes.

Another mistake is the use of the nicotine toxic influence of tobacco dur- ing their course of study. ‘Napoleon's maxim was, ‘Audacity, al- ways audacity.’ He applied this maxim so persistently that he defeated himself, and brought to his brain the instability of epi- lepsy, and, with the broken nervous resist- ance of overaction and the chagrin of de- feat, he fell a prey to cancer of stomach. “The shibboleth of modern education is ‘action, always actton, and the pathway of our educational victories is strewn with the stricken victims of nerve center over- strain, who fail and fall In the after bat- tle of life.

Missouri Burglars Leave Notes of Explanation URGLARS have. introduced a novel- B ty at Lebanon, Mo.

It complained of his frugality in banking his. money instead of. leaving it in the till. That same morning L. T. Scott found footprints of burglars in his stere. Mr. Scott also found a note. It ecmplimented the night watchman on his vigilance—while it ‘!asted. The burglars said they were unable to enter the store until the night watchman got sleepy and went-home and went to bed. What could be more interesting than this new thing under the sun in Missouri—the burglar’s note? It represents a courtesy which cannot be discredited, despite its source. What could be-’better manners in a burglar than a note like this: “Sorry, old man; but I need the money.”’ Or what could be better calculated to put the injured store owner in a forgiving mood than this: “Thanks for the money.

M’MILLAN, the St. W Louis explorer who is going this year to the headwaters of the Blue Nile river in Africa, is, perhaps, the only St. Louis sportsman who has hunted the hippopotamus in his native land. Mr. McMillan’s first trip to Africa took him into the interior along the southern border of Abyssinia. There is an abun- dance of big game in that region, and the jungles are of such density that the hunter often comes face to face with an elephant, a rhinoceros or a hippopotamus on one of the narrow trulls. Mr. McMillan is an expert rifleman, and his courage has been proven of the first - . >” . ry Ce “ct . ‘5 w* #, * eae 43S ° a . ot, sabe. aay } oy a -— SAL: into the African interior. Upon one occa- sion he encountered a male lion which sprang upon him after being wounded by his first shot. Mr. McMillan’s Abyssinians fled in terror, calling upon him to follow, but the young American stood. his ground without flinching and sent a bullet through the lion’s head when the creature was all but upon him. This exhibition of valor so enthused the Abyssinians that they spoke of it to Menelik, their King. Mene- lik is himself a hunter, and wears the in- signia which signifies in Abyssinia that the wearer has killed, single-handed, at least two elephants. The king expressed a de- sire to meet the St. Louis hunter and honor him for his valor, which explains the in- vitation recently extended to Mr. McMillan to visit Menelik’s court in the course of his second trip into Africa. Hunting the hippopotamus is hardly what an American -sportsman would call sport, but it nevertheless has its excite- ments. The big creature is attacked by the natives in boats, and they fight it out with him in a combat sufficiently desperate for anyone. It would be an easy matter to kill a hippopotamus with a rifle, but the foreign sportsman in Africa prefers to do his hunting with his natives much as an American or an Englishman likes to hunt with his hounds—letting these do the fight- ing, and him following to be in at. the death.

It is impossible that his ancestors liked that sort of thing, but the modern monkey wants none of it in his. Throughout the long winter the captive monkeys in the Forest Park Zoo sits indoors and “cheep” plaintively. It is a monkey's manner of sighing for the palms and the good warmth of his tropical home.

His researches are conducted with a quantity of radium that might easily be heaped on the tip of a woman's little finger. If half a kilogram were in a bottle on the professor's labora- tory table the eaperiments would come to a halt, because the experimenter would probably be killed. At any rate he would be blinded and burned by the infinitesimal projectiles: fired at him through the gass without per- ceptible diminution in velocity. Radium glows with a pale blue fire, which seems, however, to be mere fluorescence, the electrons themselves emitting no light as they dash off through space. Here are some of the astounding things about radium which Prof. Pegram and hs Lord Kelvin, Prof. fellow | scientists have discovered, or sub- stantiated: ” The flying electrons will whirl ‘through sheet-iron with no diminution of speed and photograph an object afterward. A single crystal will give out its steady blue light for a @illion years without ces- sation while continuing to hurl forth its electrons into space, and to impart to oth- €r substances the property of giving off light. Th:s light is entirely devoid of heat. The electrons will burn your ficsh w:.thcut the usual sensation of flame. Down in the deepest pitchblende mines where particles of radium have been hid- den away from sunlight since the making At the wor'd, they are stil] found sh'ning with their strange blue light. After eons of time they continue to hurl their elec- trons outward and upward, through the en- casing pitchblende, through granite and clay and sod and grass—beyond the surfdce of the earth and beyond the flaming sun. What amazing arti lerist is this who fires his atomic projectites frcm the nethermost earth and hits a star? One hundred and twenty thousand m'‘les a second! Think of it! An electron of radium so small that no micrcscope can make it visib‘e, may loop a view ess loop around the moon in two seconds. It may whirl five times around the world in a second, Suppose you should hold a crystal of radium in your hand with your face turned to the east. Suppose that one of the elec- trons were a leaden bullet circling the earth to its starting point. You would be shot in the back from the westward five times before you could fall to the ground. The electron would speed across the At- lantic over Europe, traverse China, cross the Pacific, top the Roaky mountains and pierce your heart in the batting of an eye- lash. A radium electron set in chase of a fily- ing Mauscr ball would pass through it as though it were standing stil!. To the lay mind it would seem that such tremendous energy would wear itself away in short order and that the inconceivable projections would soon be exhausted. Such is not the case. Here is an iilus- tration of the constant power of radium. Take, for instance, a quantity equal to ten crystals of granulated sugar. Let this ‘small particle bombard the universe with its decillions of eectrons vears. The amount projected into space would be found to equal cne sixty-five thousandth part of a miligram, which can be compared for a million to mente better than the toe of a needle. NEW DEFENDER OF SLANG IN KANSAS: OOO09000% Mrs. Toler’s Unique Paper COSSEOOOY Before the American Dialect Society—Her Enthusiasm for Such Terms as i Knocker, ’’ M ‘“Butt In,’’ Ete. RS. H. G.

Mrs. Toler believes in some kinds of slang. recently made a defense of slang be- She has believed in it for a long time, and at the last meeting of the Dialect Society she took occasion o “butt in” and take a “crack” at the being able to “k nockers” “see the finish” of good English. who have been “kicking” about Mrs. Toler has contributed to the Sunday Post-Dispatch the following defense of her ideas: BY MRS.

He further affirmed that one of the main it at its living sources, among the ‘‘d vinely iliiterate.”’ ing the disorganization of the English language from the introduction of 8s ang ef the United States. A witty writer of a recent newspaper article avers that some of our bad dialect novels, which por- tray the speech of no peopie under the OWELL warned us years ago that sought in the grammars and dictionaries, avenues of escape from this was to seek English critics and alarmists are foretell- phrases and words by reckless Americans somebody over there has been reading They tell us that the use of slang sun. indicates a poverty of language and thought, and that it invariably springs from low and degraded sources. But every- thing has its prophets of tll, or, to lapse into the vernacular deplored, its ‘‘knock- ers.” The written language of even the worst of our dialect writers can scarceiy be more difficult to English readers than the mother tongue, as “she is spoke'’ by the English themselves, is to the American ear. The American Dialect Society admits that slang words and expressions are coming into use among the illiterate every day, but only the more forcible get beyond the place of their birth. Sometimes they are transmitted through several gene} ‘*'*~~ before they are taken up by stump a at political meetings, or heard even, in Con- grees. When they are quoted by the news- papers they become familiar and take their place in* the colloquial language of the people. We resent the imputation that our living, breathing Americanisms are the result of poverty of thought. If we are to escape the danger of ta king like books, we must utilize the best grafts which spring from the origina! soil of popular idiom; and these new grafts, vital with energy and living force, are being created every day to meet the ever-growing demand of new occasion. As factors in the g.owth, as well as in the preservation of our tongue, we must allow the spoken language, kindled by living interests and afire with the pas- sion of the present, as well as the “‘fau.tily written tongue.”’ Peaide, the student of word and language finds many a good old English word resur- rected from the obsolete and serving on duty. Often the idea is the same and the word little changed. When the irreverent small boy hurls at you the -incredulous “O, come off!" he has in support “Go to!" from ancient and honorable sources. “He lks too much with his mouth,” would caure our purist to “throw a fit; yet the young preacher In ecclesiastes does not fear w say, “Young man, be not rash wiih thy mouth!” One who registers a “kick” is condemned for vulgar expression; yet In Deuteronomy 32.15 we read, “But Jeshuron waxed fat, and kicked.” égain, I Samuel, li, 2, Berefore kick ye at my sacrifice and - PSF ae, mine offering.’’ New conditions and inventions bring out new words and new meanings for old ones. The word ‘delighted’ formerly meant de- prived of light. ‘‘Acre’’ was a field of any size. ‘Imp’’ meant a little child. ‘“‘Brat,”’ a word of pronounced disrepute, once meant offspring. “Preface” word of welcome to a meal. were made over land as well ‘Voyages as water. The use of the telephune is responsibic for many vigorous expressions. To be told brusqiely to “ring off” is less elegant than io be requested to “have the kindness w desist.’’ but it will prove quite as effectual if tried on a bore. Faults of hearing play fanta t’e tr'cks with words which have been known to lie hidden under false spelling for years. Often idioms and expressions survive through generations and reappear in the midst of cultured descendants to betray a plebeian ancestry that could not write or spell. Much of the eo-cal'ed slang la not slang at all. If you say cf a man “I can see his finish,"’ you are, on the authority of George Ade, using cerrect English. John Henry (Hugh McHugh) goes etill further in the irreverent metaphor of the period and says “his finkh is r'ng ng at the door bell.”’ The slang of the slums is not that of the co lege, and for hotbeds of s ang, colleges can take the bine ribbon and the “box of- fice recetpts."’ The sportive expression of the sweet seminary girl who speaks of her “reveiry rags,’ her “glad rags’ or of giving an unwelcome visitor the ‘frozen face,’ or the ‘“‘frappeed frown,” bears no resemblance to the slang of the slums. The college boy adds to the collection, “the Klondike grin,” the “glassy stare.” These er but little in kind from the re*pect- Bie “stony stare.’ “The cotlege boy speaks of his alma mater as a “knowledge fac- tory; of a felow athietic’s undue boast- “hot air,” or of one who is a social ing, as sucess as one who “has aloft full of smart talk.” A “lobster” is a cad, and “then some.” A “shrimp” is a niggardly fellow. Among the expressions that bid fair to ‘ive as idioms, are, “the extreme Imit;’ to “deliver the goods; a “tough proposi- tion: the “glad hand.” I have not been able to trace that rather elastic expre:sing, was once the. .s'sts on rushing y At the same ‘ime the decillions of elec- “!t# Place in the broken molecule, and trons comprising a body as large as a need'e’s point would have developed energy sufficient to melt a layer of ice a quarter of a mile thick.

Since all electrons are identi- cal except in the matter of velocities, may not the soul ‘be a sentiment electron ra- diated from the body by death? VITAL PRINCIPLE OF ELECTRICITY, Many scientisis look upon the electrons of radium as the very substance of elec- tricity itself, if not of the very vital prin- ciple of life. Sir William Crookes, the eminent English scientist, says of radium that a single gram of electrons contains sufficient energy to lift the navies of England and France to the top of Ben Nevis. When it is considered that one small crysta! of pure radium the size of a pin- head hurls into the universe decillions of electrons a day, what an amazing exhibi- tion of uncontrolled power. is placed before our minds. In a few — of the substance there : M Pu 5 i IP sc ; ty, a OS HE wien of edits are Re aes: ¢ selves luminous, their luminos- | ity heing. Wke thelr radio-ac- | tivity, spontanecus, The activity of | - radium produces various chemical re- actions; it colors g ags, it transforms oxygen Int. ozene, it changes white phosphorus to red, it fonizes not only gases but also liquids, such as petro- leum and liquid air, and insulating solid bodies, such as paraffin, devel- oping in this latter body a residual conductivity which lasts a long time after the rays have ceased to act. It also causes on organic tissues serious burns armalcgous to those produced by Xrays. FE The radio-aciivity of radium re- “¥ stores to certain crystals, and to glass, the property of becoming phos- phoresecent by heat, which they have lost, owing to a previous elevation of temperature. The origin of the radiant energy of radium is still an enigma. : , Y a may well be stored the titan energy of ne new solar systems, the reverberating thun- — der of worlds hurled from their orbits, erg clash of unharnessed stars, the uproar of . ruined universe. ‘Science long ago demonstrated the fact that no two molecules in any rateennige fe actually touch each other. There is co- i hesion, but no contact. It is through these infinitesimal spaces that the radium elec- trons dash as freely as the stars shine te the sunshine filter through the inter-stellar” spaces between the two huge molecules the universe. The relative power of radium to the xray is as six to one.

This of operations may be repeated any er. of times with the same result. “Hoven ia mystery which physical research is ad unable to fathom.

The ‘‘vous tous," “nous tous,’ ‘“‘nous entres"’ of the French la langue politesse of the world, is the same in meaning as our Southern inheritance of “you all,’ “we all." The French, too, may “arrive’’ more elegant’y, but we “get there’’ just the same. Even the unlettered mountaineer of the South who ‘“‘counts” on doing a thing, may claim the same polite authority, since the French verb ‘“‘conter,"’ to count, is also used as meaning to purpose, to intend. The Southern writers of dialect are doing much to preserve original specimens of lan- guage expressed in the humor and pathos of a nation whose individual.ty is fast pass- ingg away.

Then, if myualize ure a i hye as to matters for the men, he has appended another paragraph | assessing all able-bodied women between the ages of 4 and 30, with no dependent rel- atives, the sum of $25 annually. All these taxes ure to go to the schoo) fund. Naturally Kansas is aroused over the bill. The press of the entire state is discussing the measure with interest and at such length that the anti-bachelor campaign threatens to soon spread to other states and result in the introduction of similar bills in other legislatures. In Kansas the legislature is already lined up in two bodies over the question. It is not a political alignment either. It is the married men against the bachelors. Natur- ally,.the bachelors are against voting for any measure that will cost them $50 annual- ly. While they are in a minority they are hopeful that Ldeutenant-Governor Hanna may block the passage of the bill in the senate, or if it squeezes through that body that the governor may strangle it with a veto. But the married legislators are as deter- mined to pass the bill as the advocates of single blessedness are to throttle it. They are being cheered on in their efforts by the prettiest young girls in Kansas and while the old maids have risen in horrified oppo- sition to the proposition, the married sen- ators and representatives are determ'ned to turn a deaf ear to their appeals. Not only are the legislators of other states watching with cager interest the out- come of this novel legislative move, but they are reported to be planning similar moves in other states. A bill which a St. Louisan is thinking of presenting to the Misouri legislature differs from the Campbell bill in that it is not aimed at the governor or lieutenant-gov- ernor. But while Gov. Dockery and Lieutenant- Governor Lee would no way be affected by such a measure, the anti-bachelor bill in the Missouri Legislature would neverthe- lees find shining marks. ‘ Senator John F. Morton of Ray County, the Beau Brummel of the Senate, would be hit right in the solar plexus, He has turned an adamantine heart to the glances of some of the prettiest eyes in. Missourt and, though ever courteous and gallant, like Messrs. Bailey and Hanna, he has “turned down” all the proposals that ever fioated in his way. The bill of which the St. Louisan is think- ing proposes to make the age limit from 33 to 6 in thé hope “of maknig more Mis- sourians eligible to paying the bachelor tax. And what an inviting field St. Louls would be for the application of a bachelor tax, particularly if the amount were graded on the income of the bachelor! Think of how the school fund could be in- creased by such distinguighed contributors as Robert 8. Brookings, John F. Lee, Charles Wiggins, Alfred G. Robyn, Samuel C, Davis, Stephen A. Gore, Henry T. Kent, Moses C. Wetmore and Edward 8. Robert. And what a commotion would ensue if the Missouri legislature should pass a bill tax- ing old maids in St. Louis. That would imply a public record of the ages of the unmarried women of our first families and would make a chapter of sta- tistics of unprecedented interest. While there is no certainty that the Mis- sour! legislature, or even the Kansas law- making body, will immediately pass such a measure, there is no doubt that the sub- ject of taxing bachelors is gradually as- suming more importance in the world of legislation and economics. In France and other European countries there are now stringent laws for the taxa- tion of single blessednesa and there are many advanced thinkers who say that the United States sooner or later ix certain to copy them. But for any immediate trouble arising from this source, the bachelors and old maids of the country will be tempted to hold Gov. Bailey and Lieutenant-Governor Hanna of Kansas responsible. Ali over the District of Columbia are seores of types of volcanic action, and all show traces of electrical energy. it has been found that 16,000 children un- der 14 vears of age are emp'oyed in New York Clty, in spite of the child-labor law. OTHER PRINCESSES Q LONG princesses are expected S to be other than they are, very hu- man youh@ women with ordinary red ~—or blue—blood in their veins, there will be royal ¢clopements like that of the Crown Princess of Saxony with her French tutor recently, Romantic love will come unbidden into their lives no matter what the restrictions, and there is a considerable list of princesses who have been too weak or too independent to withstand the temptation to follow the dictates of their hearts. A notable royal elopement was that of the Infanta Elvira, daughter of Don Carlos, whom at one time the Archduke Leopold Ferdinand, the Crown Princess’ brother, who is abetting his sister in her present ac- tion, unsuccessfully sought in marriage. it was atthe instance of the Roman painter Folehi, whose personal qualifica- _tions as a lover were.of the very scantieet, that Princess Elvira of Bourbon, by sur- rendering rank and good name, followed the example of another Spanish royalty, Princ- ese ieabelia, sister of King Franc's and grand-aunt of the present ruler, King Al- fonso.

The pictures of the beauties of the last century show the head of womankind gracefully bent on the general plan of a flower a little the worse for wear. Still. it was the fashion for wives sweethearts to be meek in those days. They never argued over the muarriase ceremony ‘“‘obey’’ and man had been pro- claiming himself Jord and master of every- thing in sight for so long without inter- ruption that he really thought he was the monarch of the vine and fig tree. . But nowadays we do about as we please. And if it pleases us, forsooth. to hold our collective heads up and out, who vhall say us nay? Mme. Sarah Bernhardt is accredited with having set the hold-your-head-up fashion. Whether she did or not, it Is now regarded as bad form to Iet the chin drop or to al- low the head to fall over on the chest— and from whatever may be regarded as bad form the saints deliver us! The result is in the sudden appearance of regiments of ‘‘Haughty Lady Imogenes,”’ who puzzle the uninformed by their extreme and continuous exhibition of stiff-necked carriage. There is nothing that so soon marks the years as the fall necks and the habit of lIet- ting the head droop on to the chest. The woman who hords her head up is al- Ways graceful. It seems impossible for awkwardness to bear company with a well- poised head. Equally it appears impossible for a fat-necked woman to be genuinely graceful, for the we'ght of fatty tissues causes the head to settle down on to the shoulders. The new fashion of rearing the head is an exaggeration, as all fads are for a time. But the exaggeration is on the right side. Women who are inélined to be obese are always conscious of the clumsiness of their necks, always deploring their double chins, always hating the fat that will not be kept within the confines of stock or collar. With the head held up and out, the throat gains in length and naturally in grace. It is. however, far easier to talk about holding up one’s head as a continuous per- formance than to execute the feat. Mme. Rernhardt keeps the lines of throat young by lifting her chin very high. Her gowns are all made with a stock or a lace arrangement, built upon a wired foundation. In either case the neck dressing is sv loose that in no pose of the head can the throat. which is no longer as firm and round as it was, be distorted into a look of flabbiness. When Bernhardt played L’ Aiglon many of her warmest admirers speculated as to how the consummate artist would manage her throat. It is easy to make up. the face for any age. The great artist's figure is as sym- metrical and pliant as of old. But a woman's throat is the pitiless rec- ord of a woman's yverrs. Time is no reapecter may rot he cajoled. bought. But Mme. Bernhardt showed that time, the inexorable, may be circumvented. The woman who holds her head up and dresses her throat properly can keep up the illusion of youth indefiniiely. Mme. Bernhardt'’s stock in L'Aiglon covered her neck completely, but was loose enough never to crowd the fleegh up over il. Of course, a very fat throat needs other treatment beside ihe haughty pose, There are several good throat gymna‘tic movements which may be practiced with es- pecial benefit by short thick-necked sub- jects. The yawning and stretching movements of neck and mouth are excellent for length- ening short throats. The head-twieng movements are good, WHO HAVE ELOPED and bore her to the carriage that stood ready at the garden gate. They fled to England, where they were married, but the union turned out unfortunately and the couple ‘separated. Her s«leter’s marriage with the. poet, Senor Guel y Rente, was more felicitous, Her husband in his younger days, when but @ reporter on a Cuban newspaper, had pro- posed for the hand of the daughter of a rich planter, who had treated his offer with such contemptuous disdain as to evoke the re- tort that, though he was too lowly born to aspire to a planter’s daughter, a princess might not spurn his addresses. Strange to say, this predictisn came true, He quitted the West Indies and journeyed to Spain, where, after many years of pov- erty and neglect, his poems began to find acceptance. Among his admirers was num- bered the Infanta Josephine, who sought him out, with the result that the pair fell in love with one another and eloped. They were married at Valladolid, and although at first the union wes ignored by her /ela- tives it was ultimately recognized atyl the couple received into favor. ys In these BSpanizh princesses # ‘pa fol- luwed the Sultan's favorite daus er.

Maseage treatment for the throat shouid be given by placing the fingers of both hands under the chin, making the passes toward the back of the neck always out- ward and upward. Another exercise is performed by work- ing on the cheek muscles just below the eare—always a movement that will lift the muscles up, decreasing the sagging under the chin. The subcutanecus treatment for filli,¢ up shrunk necks has not, to my knowledge. been successfully performed. The London specialist whose operations I saw last summer told me he did not fee! confident about this treatment for flabbi- ness under .the chin—he preferred not to perform the operation, contenting himself by. an operation which lifted the loose skin by raising the cheek muscles. A surgical operation which | am teld has been successful consists in taking out «a section of the skin, but I have never sonally seen a case of this sort. [I have no doubt, in this century of in- creasing plastic surgery wonders that a method of removing the loose skin which is the bane of all women who are bearing the burden cf an old neck will be discovered be- fore long. All the surgeons I have spoken with on the subject so far have told me that whil- the feat is possible, it is not an operation they care to perform until, by experience, they know exactly what to expect. Of ccurse, the only way to get the ex- perience is through the performance of the per- operation, but women are not eager to serve. as expcrimengs.

To a young tnfantry Meutenant. Baron Otto von Seefield, Princess Elizabeth, a granddaughter of the ruling Austrian Hm- peror, had given her heart, and on him. daring family opposition, she resolved to bestow her hand. One morning the couple fied together to a remote Alpine village, the prieet whereof they persuaded to make them one. Then they started on a honey- moon, Which was discreetly prolonged un- til the princess’ parents not only forgave thefr daughter. but her grandfather, the Emoecror, presented her with an estate and an annuit? as a wedding gift. Princers Caraman-Chimey, who, though herself not of illustrious descent, hed os- poveed an ancient lincaged husband, cre- ated intense excitement a few years back by deserting him and her family for the sake of a chef d'orchestre at a Parisian restaurant named Rigo. With her gypsy lover she fled to Hungary, where the cou- ple spent Christmas with the musician's parents in the mud-hut on the banks of the Danube. They subsequently traveled through Europe, where thelr adventures and quarrels were the gossip of the world. Driven to deepatr by her husband's cru- elty, Princese Louise, the eldest daughter of the King of the Belgians, after a vein appoal to her father for protection tntrust- ed her future to the keeping of a Hunga- rian officer of hussars, Lieut.

R.~There.are a good many for- J mulas for cold cream, so I send you e two. I think, myself, the Kentucky cola cream is perhaps the better. KENTUCKY COLD CREAM.—Rosewa- ter, 4 ounces; almond oil, 4 ounces; sper- maceti, 1 ounce; white wax, 1 ounce. Orange flower, lilac, violet or elderflower water be substituted for the rosewater at pleasure, and the addition of one dram of tincture of bengzoin or half-dram of salicylic acid will insure the cream from becoming rancid. * COLD CREAM.-«Pure wax, 1 ounce; sper- macetil,; 2 ounces; almond oil, % pint.

BELL.—It is Impossible to say how long it will be before the peroxide will produce just the shade you desire. Individuals differ a great deal in respect the effect of per- |oxide. Your best plan will be to use it | diluted half and half and wait until you get the required shade. You wit! know within '24 hours after making the application just what éffect the peroxide will have. The hair must-be perfectly clean before making the application. An Anxious Friend. | STELLA.—I have read your letter with |}a great deal of interest. I won't say to you, as you fear. ‘Follow your:-physician’s advice,’ but I do wish you could read a book which I thing would be of great in- terest to you and: which is written for women in your condition. It is called ‘‘Tokology,’’ and is written by Mrs. Alice B. Stockholm of,the Alicé B. Stockholm Co., Chicago. I do not usually give names and addreses in this column, but I make an exception in @ur case because I am sure you will get the very help you need from this book. To Turn Gray Hair White. GREENPORT.—There is no preparation made that will turn gray hair pure white without ruining the texture of the hair. The best treatment for gray hair to keep it looking soft and silvery is a weekly _— using as a last rinsing water - SIDE 79 S'DE TOVE/TEN OF NECK-NEAD FRECT BRAWING IN CHIN TAR AS POSSIBLE OF Must Await an Invitation. to a house to a man and W HEN an invitation wife from a relative and they wedding is sent have one daughter aged 12, should she be mentioned in the invitation or is it wun- derstood that she its invited? INQUIRER. A girl of 12 is not usually invited out except to children’s entertainments. She may very properly be asked to attend the wedding of a relative, but unless she re- ceives an invitation or a verbal message it would not be in good taste for her rar- ents to take her with them. .If the two families are quite intimate the little girl's mother might request her to be present at the mafriage. Or if the invitations were addressed in the manner now no longer fashionable, to “Mr. and Mrs. Blank and family,”” the 12-year-old daughter would be included. Would Be an Embalmer. Whi you “please let me know rales of etiquette if embalming is trade for a girl to learn and wha cap learn it?

About the Groomsman’s Sweetheart. Would it be obligatory on the part of the bride to invite the sweetheart of the groomseman to a wedding at which only the parents of the contracting parties are invited? A. ha It would be a graceful courtesy, but the. RULES OF HEALTH bride is under no obligation to invite the ' best man’s sweetheart to a strictly private wedding. If the young lady i« one of the bride's friends she may properly be asked to act as bridemaid. Acknowledging a Wedding Gift. Will you kindly gite me «@ form of thanks for a gift from an employer. IGNORANT. Something in this style would be ap- propriate: Dear Mr. Raymond--Your beautiful gift has arrived, and I cannot tell you how pleased I am to receive such a kind ea- surance of your interest in my welfare. Our business relations together have always been so pleasant that only the new sort of relations I am now about to enter upon could reconcile me to icaving my former position and kind employer.

Light physical culture movements involving the arms and shoulders would be good also. Massage is useful. The arm moveménts have been frequently fllustrated in this page. They will be repeated shortly. * Peroxide and Mercury. Vv. B.—No, do rot use bichloride of mer- cury soap if you are in the habit of ap- plying peroxide to your hair.

The Hop Pillow Habit. 3 MRS. R.—I really do not think the hop pillow would produce & narcotic bebit. but I do think it a mistake to depend on any- thing for the sleep which comes to us nat- urally. Sleeping medicines produce paraly-, sis of the nerve centers and a disturbanee of the proper functioning of the vital or- gans.
