Pacts Bearing on Cummings Case. Mrs. Minnie Cummings is charged with second degree murder in shooting her hus- band, Dennis Cummings, Apri] 18. After the shooting. Mrs. Cummings went te the Centra! District station and gave herself up. She said she had shot Cum- mings in self defense. Later it was found that her statement was not acceptable, and that the death of her former husband, Edward M. Harris, had an element of mystery in it. Harris’ death was due to a wound that was in many respects similar to that of Cummings. Cummings was killed in a room that had been rented by Mrs. Cummings a week be- fore the shooting, at 2814 Locust street. Cummings was not living there and had visited Mrs. Cummings but a few times before the afternoon when he was killed He was a drinking man, and Mrs. Cum- mings said he had come to her room while phe was away and was searching her effects with a view of securing money and had attacked her Harris’ death was pronounced suicide by the coroner's jury after an incomplete in- vestigation. Two Husbands’ Wounds Alike. Harris died October 4, 1901. at 4424 Easton avenue, as the result of a revolver wound in the back of the head, very similar to that of Cummines. After the charge against Mrs. Cummings became generally known, several voluntary witnesses appeared with statements concerning the death of Cummings and also that of Harris. It was reported that she hed been married before the marriage with Barris, but that point has not been cleared. A letter writer who did not sign his name gave Chief of Detectives Desmond informa- tion that Mrs. Cummings was probably Mrs. Annie Colton, who killed her husband, Michael Colton, in Bloomington, III., in 1897 That story was investigated, but was not substantiated The incomplete investigation as to the Geath of Harris was taken up this week by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Dalton im his office to see whether the facts would —7 taking it before the grandjury. That nvestigation has not been completed. Mrs. Cummings says she was born in Canada 30 years ago. She is of striking ap- arance and when she appeared at the our Courts to surrender to the police she wore a very handsome black dress. As to the death of Cummings, the state- ments made by Mrs. Cummings have been quite confiicting. Every Detail Is Discredited. The time she said she purchased the re- volver, the time of the shooting, the events leading up to the shooting and the ocecur- rences after the shooting have all been dis- hile the Investigation has been going on Mrs. Cummings, in the jail, has maintained a calm, almost unconcerned demeanor.

Marcum, Assassinat- ed is Broad Daylight in Breathitt County’s Capital. * FIFTH VICTIM OF PAMILY FEUD The Identity of the Man Who Fired the Shot Is Un- known as He Fired From Ambush. JACKSON, Ky., May 4.—J. B. Marcum, a prominent attorney, and a factor in the Cockrell-Hargis feud, was shot and in- stantly killed as he was entering the court house here today. The man who fired the shot is unknown, as he was concealed. Marcum was iden- tified in the Hargis side of the vendette. Jim Cockrell was shot down from the court house in this city on July 21. Mr. Marcum was standing in the door of the courthouse, talking to Capt. B. J. Ewen, with his hand on Capt. Ewen’s shoulder, when he was fired upon from be- hind. Two shots were fired, both taking effect in the back of the head. Mr. Mar- cum was carried across the street to Dr. J. M. Kash's office, where he died 10 min- utes later. Neither Capt. Ewen nor anyone else can five any definite statement as to the iden- tity of the man who did the shooting. The Hargis-Cardwell feud is a political one in its inception. Jerre Cardwell killed John G. Hargis on a train near Winchester. Ip the crowded car they fought a pistol cuel and each man received several bul- lets. Cardwell recovered. The fight was the outcome of a bitter political contest, when Hargis opposed Cardwell for office. Then more recently followed the killing of Ben Hargis by Tom Cockrel] in a Jack- son blind tiger. Cockrell was wounded, but recovered He is now in jail awaiting trial. Then Cox, guardian of or. B BD. the Cockrell boys, was assassinated one night as he stood in front of ‘his office, and Jim Cockrell was shot down in broad daylight before 50 or a humdred people, on the streets, and now Lawyer Marcum has been killed in much the same manner. All the parties concerned are of promi- nence. The Hargis family has one of the largest wholesale and retail stores in the mountains, and are worth between $150.000 and $200,000. They have been prominent in the affairs of the section for years. The Cockrells and Cardwells are, like- wise, placed among the best families, al- though they have not the wealth of the Hargises. All had influence in their respec- tive parties. It is a fact that Jerry Cald- well was pardoned by Republican Gov. Willlam O. Bradley for the killing of John Hargis on the railroad train. It is now sal that the Hargises urge on their fol- lowers with the promise that whatever they do they can get a pardon from Gov. Beckham, on account of their known friendship for William Goebel and the present administration. They even charge that numerous pardons have already been obtained, and that they were given as re- wards for voting richt at recent elec- tions. Jackson is not the town in which one migiit expect to find such a middle-age institution as a feud. 17 it is small—for it does not number more than 1500 in popu- lation—it is remarkably prosperous. It is the distributing point for all of Breathitt and parts of every contingent county. in quick succession, Goods are freighted on wagons for 75 miles into the intertor to supply the small coun- try stores. The north and middie forks of the Kentucky river are both supplied in this way from Jackson. A large coal business is being built up, for canal coal of fine quality and enormous quantity 18 at hand, It is a timber-shipping region and headquarters for many of the oil mineral and timber prospecting parties that are now invading Kentucky. In a word, it Is a thoroughly prosperous little town, and the lack of sidewalks and elec- tric lights can be excused by reason of the very rapid growth of the town. The A. T. Still St. Louis Sanitarium, a located at 808 North Garrison avenue, is branch of the original Kirksville infirmary now open and ready to receive patients. Dr. A. G.

The police appear to have abandoned the idea that a robber committed the crime. There are some serious contradictions in the statements made by Father gee physician declares that Miss Reichlin was killed while she slept and there was not the slightest indica- tion that she had been able to make a fight ife. 21 — Walser says he heard Miss Reich- lin ery, whereupon he ran to her room thinking burglars had entered. He foun: her alone and dead. Cassimer Reichlin, who slept in the room next to his sis- ter's, says he heard nothing, wet he is one of the stanchest supporters of the accused Walser ber Walser is in 2 at Elyria, where he was taken immediately upon his ar- rest. to protect him from a mob. The so- called mob consisted of young roughs, and is no longer thought to menace the safety of the priest. The Fathers of the Precious Blood, to whose order Father Walser belongs, have engaged T. G. Johnson, a celebrated crim- inal lawyer. to defend the accused. Father Walser will have a preliminary hearing Tuesday before the mayor, immo- diately after the inquest. PRIEST’S STORY OF THE TRAGEDY LORAIN, O., May 4.—Father Ferdinand Walser. the priest accused of murdering Miss Agatha Reichlin, will undergo a pre- liminary hearing before Mayor King in this city probably after the inquest, which will take place at 10 o'clock on Tuesday morn- ing. He said this morning: “I went to bed about 11 o'clock and oc- cupied Father Reichlin’s room. During the night I was awakened by smothered cries, like one in agony and pain. I listened and thought it must be the woman who slept in the next room, and was probably dreaming or was sick. Her brother being in the house, I decided to wait to see if he would go to ber to find if she was sick. After a little I heard someone moving about, and then I haard the striking of a match. “ss 2 m that was Cassimer, and walt- ed for come to my room. Soon the door opened and I looked that way, and when the head presented itself I saw it was not Cassimer. “I spoke up and said to him: ‘What are you doing here? Get out of here as fast as you can.’ ‘The man turned away very quickly, and I called’ out to Cassimer that robbers were in the house. The man I saw was short, not over five feet tail. He wore a slouch hat, had a black coat, was slim and had a mustache. He moved lively. Cassimer answered my call, and it was not long until he called me and told me his sister had been murdered. J shall never forget those cries, as they went through me and left their impression. I believe that If I had not seen the man and had not discovered him he would have silenced me as well. Strangely enough, be- fore we retired last night 7 spoke of lock- ing the doors to keep out robbers, * have to say is that I am not guilty of any crime. I am innocent, and say that with a clear conscience. I am entirely blameless of any crime. This 1s an outrageous proceeding and a disgrace to the city and to the county. I am as innocent of this crime as a babe in its cradle. First they had me tell my story, and I told it over and over agers to them. Why did they -not arrest ‘assimir Reichlin, who was also in the house If I had been guilty of such a crime I would have fled from this place and gone to some place of hiding. If a man is guilty of such a crime it can be seen in the eye and on the face. A conscience tells its story on the face. My conscience is perfectly clear, and the end of this will show that I am entirely innocent. All will come out right in the end. There is a feeling against me, I believe, be- cause I am a priest. There always 1s such a feeling. This is awful to be laced in a place of this kind (and he ooked about his little cell with an eye > 2 1 * . * * . .

LORAIN, O., May 4.—Cassimer Reichlin. the brother of the dead woman, talked | freely about the matter. He was cool and collected, and admitted that he could hard- ly realize the enormity of the crime, and that his sister was dead. He said: “I was awakened by Father Walser calling me. He cried out that there burglars in the house. I rushed to my s!s- | ters room, and saw the doors leading to | the attic were open. The fellow was mak- ing some noise, and I ran into the attic | and looked out of the window. There 1 saw the ladder that told me how the escape had been effected.

Other workmen in the excavation began at once to dig in the plle of dirt with spades to release him, but it was nearly halt an hour before they got him out.

Ryan went to the saloon early Sunday morning to see his former partner, and goon after his arrival the fight commenced. Shots were exchanged, and revolvers used as clubs. McGillicuddy was left unconscious in the saloon, and Ryan escaped. Patrolman Anton Tomesso took McGillicuddy to the City Dispensary, where his wounds were dressed.

Twentieth United States Infantry, whose body was shipped to his home at Mt. Sterling, Ky., Monday morning. was one of the victims. Carmody was run over and killed by an Olive street owl car on Union avenue, be- tween De Giverville and Waterman ave- nues. Motorman Michael J. McNamara gays that when he saw the body lying on the tracks the car was too close to the body to allow it to be stopped. The police hold the theory that Carmody was assaulted and robbed, and his body placed on the tracks to hide evidences of the work of the robbers. On the car which struok the soldier were several privates and officers, and they car- ried the body to the emergency hospital at the World’s Fair grounds, from which THE SHIRT STORE. ‘Tis by the right of our might as a strong factor in the shirt world that we lay claim to the distinctive term, “The Shirt Store.” We know that nowhere else is the study of shirt fashions and shirt making given more serious thought than here—the results are a high achievement not equaled elsewhere in our city.

The decision of the New York Court of Appeals sustaining the franchise tax law of that state is an able and impartial review of the whole subject. The court defines a etreet-using franchise as ‘‘the right to do gomething in the public highway which except for the grant would be a trespass."’ The franchise is property, often the most valuable agset of the grantee and that it should not be taxed along with other prop- erty is absurd. * In New York property of this kind worth 8800, 000, 000 has escaped all taxation, but under the new law just upheld by the court the tax commission is authorized and directed to assess this property “intangible, invisible and elusive, but of great value Tt was argued that the tax “impaired the obligation of cer tracts,” but the court brushed this sophistry aside with the remark: There is no provision that the special franchise, or the property created by the grant shall be exempt from taxa- tion. The state can tax its own bonds “unless they contain an express stipulation to the contrary.”’ In conclusion the court declared that in taxing these enor- mousiy valuable franchises no burden is placed upon them except such as is borne by the homes of the people and the money saved for support in old age.” Franchises are property, taxable like a home or a horse or a vaeant lot of ground. This is the law in New York, Missouri and most other states. The reasonableness and justice of the view cannot be questioned. And in this state it is a mere matter of assessment. The law is adequate and plain. If the assessing officers do their duty the injustice will be removed. = = = President Roosevelt gave the Kansas City Journel a severe and deserved rebuke in his denial of an alleged interview with him refiecting upon the hospitality of St. Louis. He character- ized it as wholly untrue and testified to the cordial and excellent treatment he had received in St. Louls. But it fs not worth while to bother about the misrepresentations of newspapers which. like the Kansas City Journal, show a manifest intention to libel a sister city and do its great enterprise all the injury in their power. The Ficious intent destroys its power. It is consumed by the fire of id own malice. Amn THE QUESTION MUST BE ANSWERED. The Army and Navy Register, heretofore friendly to Gen. Miles. berates that officer for his Philippine report. The charges appear to be in most instances, idle rumor and unsustained report.“ ell, if some nameless gossip should circulate rumors they might be dismissed as the mouthings of an irresponsible notoriety seeker. But when the lieutenant-general of the army officially relates a series of facts authenticated as facts by his credence it is an entirely different matter. Whether or not Gen. Miles wants to contribute to the ammu- nition ot the critics of the army“ or to “aid the cause of the so-called anti-imperialists’’ is beside the question. His private political views need not be considered. The question is: What truth is there in the allegations solemnly set forth in an official report by the lieutenant-general? The American people will in- sist upon an answer to this question. — — — — 2 2 The news that the stegosaurus, which is much more hideous than the triceritops, is coming to the World's Fair, will send a scientific thrill through the entire nation. i “Sh AUTOMOBILES AND BAD ROADS. It would be more natural to couple automobiles and good roads in one phrase, but this would not apply to Missouri nor to the western and southern states where the good roads movement has not yet produced results. The phrase was suggested by the fact that, according to the best estimates, 28,000 automobiles will be manufactured in the United States this year. St. Louis is increasing the number of its automobiles, put ow many of these 28,000 will be used in Mis- souri? How r people, outside of the cities and their immedi- ate vicinity 1 be foolish enough to invest in automobiles while th” e in their present vile condition? ds Work, Mr. Henry Norman prophesies that use of the automobile will become universal. srs will take their samples through the coun- farmers will use them to convey their pro- or car will supplant the steam railway. He n thinking of Missouri and the West in mak- -nG@ carriage or wagon, the owner has an area 4 aquare miles. He can visit in this area, or mar- ois. With an automobile his area is increased to 2827 niles. But with bad roads, his area of activity is much #52 square miles with horse-power, and the dangers of mn and consequent expense with an automobile are so h bad roads, that this vehicle must continue to be those regions where roads are negiected. are to reap the benefits of invention in moter vehicles, ads are & prime necessity. One might as well invest in lo- woes and forget to lay the rails, as look for a wide use of wr cars with bad roads on which to run them. = = R It cost but 17 cents a dey per man to feed the regulars who were housed in the Educational building on the dedication days. Surely there can be moderate charges throughout the World's Fair period if sufficient effort be made to insure such a condi- tion. W i i = THE HIGHER LIFE ‘@ all dote on the higher life, but how many of us know what that elevated vitality really is? At a meeting of the Chicago Collegiate ‘Alumnae Association other day an attempt was made to reach a definition by a of @ialectical progress. : Sa eR n. | THis was interesting, but discouraging. Kansas City seems to be in a bad way, while the proportions of grub and higher life in Chicago do not indicate much noble appetite. The discussion resumed, the ladies once more followed the path of abstraction, but the higher life still hung tantalizingly over- head beyond their reach. Some said an hour of prayer.“ others “a good dinner.” To many the higher life was embodied in the person of Jenkin Lioyd Jones. One woman said she would never, no, never, include Du Barry in her solar life, and as for Anna Held, well, she had done her more harm than . Wisdom cannot say what the higher life really is. But com- mon sense can tell us what it is not; it is mot foolery. The confirmation of Fire Chief Swingley’s appointment by the narrow majority of one does not dear out the argument heard before election that the Council should be solidly Democratic in order to insure support to the Mayor’s policy, of good government. The position in question should be filled with sole reference to merit and ex- perience of the appointee. If there is one public office into which partisan politics should not be allowed to enter it is the Democracy, elected on the plea that the Mayor needed a solid partisan support, broke in the middle and the Mayor's policy was almost lost in the scramble for low partisan advantage. The vote of 7 to 6 saved it, but it was a close call. There should be an end to the prating about the necessity of a councH composed wholly of Democrats. = =" A FAULTY ANALOGY. In his eloquent dedication speech President Roosevelt stretched the analogy between expansion past and expansion present to the breaking point. Beginning with the Louistana purchase we expanded into can- tiguous regions, filled the empty spaces with people of our own blood and built up communities in nowise distinguishable from the parent stock. This process, so graphically described by the speaker now seems to us part of the natural order of things. The people of the states erected in the Louisiana territory have shown themselves mighty in war with their fellow men and mighty in strength to tame the rugged wil- der ness Moreover, they now share the opportunities and bear the burdens common to the entire civilized world. The prob- lems before us are fundamentally the same, east and west of the Mississippi, in the new states and in the old, and exactly the same qualities are required for their guccessful solution. All this will be accepted without question, but what of the analogy suggested but not directly indicated, the analogy implied in the undercurrent of the Presiient’s thought? Is it intended to settle the Philippines with men of American blood? If so, are the present inhabitants, mixed Malay, Chinese h, to be incorporated and invested with the rights and It was easy to make and Spanis : responsibilities of American citizenship * self-governing states in the Louisiana territory, because that region was occupied by self-governing people. Are the Filipinos equal to the task so nobly performed by the inhabitants of the Louisiana states? The English have not settled their tropical lands. Nor have the Dutch. Can we succeed where our kin have failed? This is the question—shall it be settlement and incorporation in the family of states or conquest and subjection ? There is no analogy between the condition of the Louisiana acquisition and that of the Philippines. The course of develop- ment cannot be the same and the advocates of latter-day expan- sion must prove how the American nation can exist half free and half slave. Liberty at home and bondage in the colonies—if this is admitted as the settled policy of the United States—expansion- ists must convince the peop! that the end will not be bondage everywhere. The new St. Louis postoffice should be pushed to an early completion. Less patient motormen than those on the Suburban would long ago have wrecked the postoffice wagons that nearly every morning unnecessarily delay early passengers by getting in the way of the cars, notwithstanding that there is plenty of room for every wagon. One of the morning papers got the price of Ringling rhinoce- ros mixed up with an expert opinion on the bond election. It is well, however, to know that the price of a rhinoceros has ‘‘riz’’ to 80 000. Not only is it an evidence of the scarcity of rhino- ceroses, but of our wondrous prosperity. i i i “Today” said Minister Livingston when the Louisiana pur- chase was completed, the United States take their place among the powers of the first rank.“ Mr. Livingston seems to have known nothing about United States is.’’ The killing of so many excursionists at Toledo on Sunday is a reminder of our good fortune in the matter of safety for the great number of visitors to St. Louis last week, brought here by railroads from all directions.

The New Jersey man with two hearts must have had a surplus of love affairs. There are many landlords who hope that the cost of moving will be greatly increased by the strikes of van men. The grief of the suburbanite with a grape arbor is a moving scene. Why didn't he think to build fires around it? Those who are still suffering from a stiff neck acquired at the dedication, should know that rubber hardens with time.

The Earl of Yarmouth’s American brother-in-law wants him thrown into the dog pound, and would doubtless like to see his existence curtailed in any old way. The rhymer who calls man a fool because he complains of both hot and cold weather is himself lacking in sense. Often it is too hot, often too cold, often too wet, often to dry. Why should not a man express himself honestly? The extremes of weather bring sickness, famine, discomfort, death, destruction. Who but a fool would fall to note these facts? nn POST-DISPATCH ANSWERS.

LUTARCH was the father of the mother-in-law joke. He told this: “A man, angry at a dog, picked up @ stone and threw it at the animal. He missed the dog and happened to hit his mother-in-law, who was standing near. Whereupon he turned to the b s aud remerked, ‘Not so bad, after all!“ That good one you heard the other night was by Cicero. When he heard Fabia, a prominent womar of fashion, say she was $) years old, he slyly remarked, ‘‘That's true, for I’ve heard her say it for the last 20 years.’’” A Greek epigram tells of an ungrounded scandal in this fashion: “Some say, Nicylia, that you dye your hair. What nonsense! Why, it's as black as can be bought in the market.“ The Chaldeans were the first to say rude things about wives. A recently read tablet of bieroglyphs discloses this thusly: A wan- derer from some remote province asked a distinguished-looking man at a great feast given by that King who a certain homely- Icoking woman was. That,“ said the dis- tinguished-looking man, “is my Sister.“ “Oh, no,“ put in the stranger hastily and in great confusion, I mean that hideous- looking creature standing next to her.” That,“ said the Chaldean, is my wife.” Socrates, who doubtless had reason for thinking as he did on account of his shrew- ish wife, Xantippe, used to say when he wus asked whether it was better to marry or not: “Whichever you do, you will regret it.“ Thence the flood of imitations. Everybody knows the modern version of this: A man agreed to pay his doctor a fee if the latter cured him. His wife re- monstrated with him for drinking heavily when in a high fever. He exclaimed “What, do you want me to get well and have to pay the doctor his fee?’ That is by an old Greek writer. ervantes wasn't the first to josh doctors. Ps can find this in an old Greek joke book: Pausanias, the Spartan general when asked why he spoke evil of a doctor whom he had never consulted, said: had 1 him I shouldn't now be Speaking either go — good or evil about any- Before the day of Dutch comedy this was told in Greece by Hierocles: A fool, meet- ing one of twins, the death of one of whom he had heard of, asked, Was it you that died, or your brother?“ IN NEW YORK} HE governor from Saint Lewis was LOVE OF CLOTHES surveying the magnificence of the | Waldorf-Astoria.

It is made, as are most of the smart gowns of this kind, of heavy lace, the variety used being linen Torchon of a cream tint. The skirt, as will be seen, is formed entirely of bands of insertion, eight or nine inches wide, which form points in the middle of the front and are joined together by fancy cat-stitching in linen thread of the same shade as the lace. The bottom of the skirt is cut into scallops and is edged with a full ruche of cream colored chiffon. The foun- dation skirt, of cream taffeta, is cut in seven gores and is finished with a plaiting edged with a narrow gathered ruffle. The bodice, also of lace insertion, is very full and fastens invisibly at the back. The Per Sins ‘7 Ph. @ x are made of alternate bands of elaborate fagotting and white panne satin, s with pale tinted irridescent pailettes. Out- lining the yoke is a lace flounce, which has the design embroidered in pale fastest shades of silk, and lace ruffies, likewise embroidered finish the tight sleeves. The sash is of pale rose and violet loulsine rib- bon and ties in the back with long ends. This gown would be very pretty worn over a colored lining in any of the light pastel shades. By having white, pink, lavender, green or blue silk slips made a number of charm- ing effects may be realized with only three or four gowns. All sheer gowns should be worn over silk and by having the separate slips this is possible at a small expense. A charming hat to be worn with this gown would be one of lace trimmed with collar and round yoke, which are unlined, long pastel shaded ostrich feathers.

As the public knows, Chauncey M. De- pew has just fitted up a surgical ward at his own expense for the old jokes, and this very morning we were in receipt of a letter from Andrew Carnegie inclosing a check for $3000 to be added to Chauncey’s fund and to purchase a new ambulance to take the place of the busy blue vehicle which has been actually worn out in the service of the Old Jokes’ Home in the last three months. D. R.

Yes, last week was a great time for the O. J.

(Charles Dickens wrote Pickwick Papers while editing a In the beginning he did not ng to do with the wan- of the Pickwickians. The best of these interiude NCE upon a time in a very small country town, at a considerable dis- tance from London, there lived a Ht- tle man named Nathaniel Pipkin, who was the partsh clerk of the little town, and lived m a little house in the little high street, within 10 minutes’ walk of the little church; and who was to be found every day from 9 till 4 teaching a little learning to the little boys. Once, and only once, in his Hfe Nathaniel Pipkin had seen a bishop—a real bishop, with his arms in lawn sleeves, and his head in a wig. This was a great event in Nathaniel Pip- kin’s life until his eyes rested on the blooming countenance of Maria Lobbs, the only daughter of old Lobbs, the great sad - dler over the way. At last, one day, when he knew old Lobbs was out, Nathaniel Pipkin had the temerity to kiss his hand to Maria Lobbs: and Ma- ria Lobbs, instead of shutting the window and pulling down the blind, kissed hers to him, and smiled. Upon which Nathaniel Pipkin deterthined, that, come what might, without further delay. The next day Nathaniel Pipkin saw old Lobbs go out upon his old gray pony, and after a great many signs at the window from Meria’s wicked little cousin, the ob- ject and meaning of which he could by no means understand, the bony apprentice with the thin legs came over to say that his master wasn't coming home until late that night, and that the ladies expected Mr. Pipkin to tea at 6 o'clock precisely. There was a very snug little party, con- sisting of Maria Lobbs and her cousin Kate and three or four romping, good -humored, rosy-cheeked girls. Nathaniel Pipkin had rumors of old Lobbs' treasures were not exaggerated. There were the real solid sil- ver tea pot, cream ewer and sugar basin on the table, and real silver spoons to stir it out of, and plates of the same, the cakes and toast in. The only eyesore Maria Lobbs called Henry, and who seemed to keep Marin Lobbe all to himself, up in one corner of the table. It's a delightful thing to see affection in families, but it may be carried rather’ too far, and Na- thaniel Pipkin could not help thinking that Maria Lobbs must be very particularly fond of her relations, if she paid as much atien- tion to all of them as to this individual cousin. The circumstance which directed - his thoughts Into a new channel was a loud knocking at the street door, and the per- son who made this loud knocking at the Street door was no other than old Lobbs himself, who had unexpectedly returned, and was hammering away, like a coffin- maker, for he wanted his supper. The alarming intelligence was no sooner com- municated by the bony apprentice with the thin legs, than the giris tripped upstairs to Maria Lobbs’ bedroom, and the male cousin and Nathaniel Pipkin were thrust into a couple of closets in the sitting room, for want of any better places of conceal- ment; and when Maria Lobbs and the wicked little cousin had stowed them away, and put the room to rights. they opened the street door to old Lobbs, who had never left off knocking since he first began. Some supper, which had been up, was placed on the table, and then old Lobbs fell to, in regular style; and having made clear work of it in no time, kissed his daughter and demanded his pipe The two girls went downstairs for the pipe, and upstairs for the pipe. and every- where but where they knew the pipe was, and old Lobbs stormed away meanwhile, in the most wonderful manner. At last he thought of the closet, and walked up it. It was of no use a little man like Nathaniel Pipkin pulling the door inward when a great strong fellow like old Lobbs was pulling it outward. Old Lobbs gave he would develop the state of his feelings | ocular demonstration of the fact that the the tea with, and real china cups to drink | . in the whole place was encther cousin of | Maria Lobbs’, and a brother of Kate, whom it one tug and open it flew, disclosing Nathaniel Pipkin standing bolt upright in- side, and shaking with apprehension from head to foot. Bless us! what an appall- ing look old Lobbs gave him, as he drag- ged him out by the collar, and held him at arm's length. “What do you want here?” roared Lobbs: 1 suppose you have come after my daughter now?” ‘Yes. I did. Mr. Lobbs—I did come after your daughter. I love her, Mr. Lobbs.” “Why, you sniveling. wry-faced, puny villain,” gasped old Lobbs, paralyzed by the atrocious confession; “what do vou mean by that? Say this to my face! I'll throttle vou.“ It is by no means improbable that 914 Lobbs would have carried this threat into execution in the excess of his rage, if his arm had not been stayed by a very unex- pected apparition, to wit, the male cousin. who, stepping out of his closet. and walk- ing up to old Lobbs, said: J cannot allow this har mess person, who has been asked here, in some girlish frolic, to take upon himself. in a very noble manner, the fault (if fault it is) which I am guilty of, and am ready to avow. I love your daughter, sir; and I came here for the purpose of meeting her.“ Old Lobbs opened his eyes very wide at this, but not wider than Nathaniel Pipkin. “And I forbade you this house, long Ago. ‘You did, or I should not have been here clandestinely tonight.’’ I am sorry to record it of old Lobbs, but 1 think he would have struck the cousin. it his pretty daughter, with her bright — eyes swimming in tears, had not clung to his arm. man, “if he has the will to strike him. reproof, and they. met ter.

LONDON, May 4—A marvelous airship, invented by Stanley, is now in course of construction to compete for the St. Louis Exposition prize. It is made of aluminum and will present some entirely new fea- tures. It will contain room for 3 passen- gers, baggage, mails and freight. The ship, Including equipment, weighs 13,000 pounds, and its lifting capacity is 21,000 pounds.

Santos- Dumont, retarding the experiments that he has had in view for several months, the famous aeronaut is now preparing to in- fate out of which will Trial Trips to Occur in Nueilly.

Mabelle Gilman opened a week's en- gagement at the Century Theater, Sun- day night, in “The Mocking Bird,” a comic opera in three acts. The libretto is by Sydney Rosenfeld, while A. Bald- win Sloane is responsible for the music. To say the performance was a hit would something of an exaggerated statement. Nevertheless the opera is extremely tune- spots.

Miss Gilman is neither an Anna Held nor a Lulu Glaser, but she is almast as vi- vacious and winsome. She is petite, grace- and pretty, but lacks some of the Iness of the other stars mentioned. The plot is not new. It is based on the ambitions of two senile guardians to be- | come the husbands of their two respective wards. Of course “Guardy” is left out in the cold in each instance and the bold, dashing young Loch- invars carry off the prizes. The ra is a trifie talky. but taken altogether is pleasing.

NANCE O’NEIL IN MAdD A.“ Nance O'Neil, strong of voice, magnifi- cent in mien, relentlessly gioomy, made her first local attempt to vindicate her claim to the title of Americas leading trage- dlenne in a presentation of Madga at the Olympic Theater Sunday night. Miss O Neil was unfortunate in the num- ber of enthusiasts who witnessed the per- formance, but Was as persistently tragic as thouga the house were crowded to tne doors. . Miss O Neil had a serious subjeo: in the leading character of sSuderman'’s impos- sible play and she did not handle it friv- olously. [If there was any daintiness in- tended by the author, any tenderness con- nected with the character Madga. she pre- ferred to overlook it. Her version of the part was neverthe- less impressive and entertaining. She haz the faculty of being tragic witnout being stagey. A pleasing personality,a clear strong voice, a distinct enunciation, and a thorough grasp of her subject aided Miss O Neils inter- preteen of the part. This, as conceived y her, was admirably carried out, but is far from being the accepted idea of Mecga. Miss O Neil was ably supported. Mr. Me- Kee Rankin is a strong feature of Miss O Neil's company and was at his best as Magda's father. His appearance bore a startling resemblance to that of picures of Bismarck and his conception of the stern parent was en as steely.

Even with Lajoie in the game at Chi- cago Sunday the Napoleons were far out- . Larry strengthens the Cleveland wonderfully, but he failed to do any- ng startling Sunday. Ball playera who have played against him this year say that he is not Icht, and perhaps he will newer be. That attack of pleurisy that winter will shorten his career. Its effect ts noticeable now, for Lajoic cannot run, Geld, or hit as he did a year ago. Cleveland will be here for only three games this time. Every team of the west- ern division wil] then ‘have appeared here. The Browns depart Wednesday night to a series at Chicago, after which they will return for a long run at home, meet- all of the eastern teams in succeSsion. f the natural pitching sequence is fol- lowed John Powell will propel the leather for the Browns Monday afternoon. Bil! Reldy is overdue, but just when Bill will arrive at the working stage is prolemati- cal.

FAST N FOURTH ACE TODAY Opening Event Has Field of Five Two-Year Olds Only One of Which Has Ever Started. | | MAOY, ONCE GREAT, TO START AGAIN BY R. D. WALSH. FAIR GROUNDS RACE TRACK, May 4 —After the storm comes the calm. After Saturdays strenuous work at the Fair Grounds comes today with its modest pro- gram. Four selling and two purse races make up the card for this afternoon’s races. The feature event will be the fourth race at a mile and 70 yards. A once great race horse—winner of the Inaugural Handicap of 1897—that has been in retirement for several years will make his reappearance in this race today. Macy will be remembered as a high-class performer six or seven years ago, but it is hard to see what the object §s in resurrect- ing him when he should be allowed to pass his old age in the peaceful retirement and luxury of some succulent pasturage in Mis- souri. Macy to Meet A victory by him today, which I do not at all anticipate, would be the great sur- prise of the turf world. Macy may be able to extend himself yet and show a little of his old-time form, but he is asked to do it today against three of the best horses in training on the local tracks. He is probably entered with the expecta- tion of seeing how far he can be beaten, and if he does not run last Tie will de do- ing well. This race seems to be entirely confined to three horses—Chappaqua, Eda Riley and Prosper La Gai. The last named ran an excellent race in Saturday’s Inaugural, but he is putting up eight pounds more today and he is decowdédly averse to weight. On a good fast track and with about 9 or 92 pounds in the saddle Prosper can give any horse an argument. I think the winner of this fourth race will be found in Chappaqua, which made his first start of the seasoh at Kinloch a few days ago and showed to good ad- vantage. Chappaqua a “Good Thing.” He carried 108 pounds and beat a fair field in the easiest manner imaginable, at a distance of seven furlongs, and if the race had been longer he would have won by a wider margin. He iikes a good track, and in his present condition and with only 16 pounds up I cannot see how he can be beaten. Eda Riley is the horse from which Chap- paqua may expect the most trouble, and if Hall rides her she wili be prominent at the finish. She won her last out, byt she was not opposed to such a good horse as Mr. Cinis candidate. In any case Eda likes a little longer distance better. Joe Lesser is a mud horse, and a fair a, against animals of his own Gal- ber, but he seems to be outclassed here. Prince Richard is also out of his element, as he has done nothing in his racing ca- reer that would justify his selection as the winner. He is just now a very common geiling- plater. Two-Year-Old Race a Hard One. The first race is also a purse affair at half a mile, and is confined to 2-year- olds. Only one of the five engaged has per- formed in public, d that is Dr. Ber- nays’ colt, Brick Pewter. The best he has done since he arrived here from Memphis is to run second to Rainland at four and one-half furlongs during O67 | 883 500 Monday's Schedules. NATIONAL LEAGUE, i.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS. Won. Lost 0 0 1 1 2 2 The regular weekly scrap in the Trolley League occurred at Belleville Sunday and resulted in Umpire Ghio forfeiting the game to the Bisenstadts of St. Louis after the Belleville team had refused to resume the contest, which was broken up in the sev- enth inning. At the time of the dispute the score was 5 to 2 in favor of the St Louis team. The dispute arose over the legality of a play which retired the Belleville team in the seventh inning. Two of the Belleville bat- ters had been retired. The third was in the patter’s box, but was un for the delivery of the ball, which struck his bat accidentally and rolled fair. Pitcher Pat- rick of the Eisenstadts threw the batter out at first and Umpire Ghio declared the side out. The Belleville players contended that the play was not legal as the batter was un- prepared and that the ball hit his bat by accident, Ghio pulled his watch and at the end of 10 minutes forfeited the game to the Bisenstadts, the Belleville team re- fusing to take the field. After this deci- sion there was a demonstration against Ghio and he was guarded by the St. Louls players until he left town. The score fol- lows: 23 5 678 9 T.

John Terry's Fast St. Louis Nationals gave the St. Charles Browns a go trouncing at East St. Louis, winning by a score of 20 to 2. The Nationals donned their swatting clothes, and hit the three St.e ‘Charles pitchers for 20 hits. Hill and O'Neill were knocked out of the box and Dohle finished the game. Seven runs were made off Hill in the second inning. The fielding of the St. Charles club was very poor, eight errors being committed.

Grain. return to growing weather in this „. in conjunction with a denial of fro& damage headed off the bull movement in wheat and started prices the other way today. There were also cable reports of more favorable weather abroad, which had the backing of a lighter export inquiry and business, though the foreign markets heard from gave no evidence of a loss in strength. The bright, warm sunshine was the chief influence upon the professional trader and the result was a combinetion bull and bear sale that sent prices down- ward after a pretty fair rise early in the day. The Armour market appeared to have lost its grip and it was said the manipu- lators were selling. Relapses can naturally be expected in w eat as long as specula- tion is confined principally to professional traders. The weather had a bearish effect on corn also, but this confined to the July tion. The May deal held up stoutly, tho bh it was not as strong ae the cash, ch sold 2c above the option price. Oats were strong, the speculative demand find- ing hardly anything for sale.

Clearances in flour and wheat were 476,000 bu. During the closing hour there was a fur- ther increase in the selling, the warm bright weather, the denials of frost dam- age, the very moderate export business—2%5 loads reported—and the weakness in Chi- | cago, where Armour is said to have been 1eavy seller, and to have made large settlements with shorts on the quiet, caus- ing free selling by longs.

Many fields are said to be infested with the fly and chinch bug, and some crops in the western section of the state are beginnin 1. to head very low. In a number of local ties it is showing the effect of wet, cog weather, and is rusting . and looking yellow. Little corn was planted during the week. and the early plantings which are coming up are doing no good. Many of recenuy planted areas will have to be plowed up and replanted. on account of the grain rotting in the hills. ('nfavorable private cables on American weather in the West, together wth light shipments to the United Kingdom, caused a steady opening in wheat at Liverpool, with prices d higher and a further ad- vance of “d occurred later in the near de- werles and id in September. Toward noon the market turned very dull, July easing off d. Corn—Opening prices were 4d higher and during the morning July advanced an additional d, the factors be- ing firmer American offerings and scat- tered covering. Paris weather mild and damp. Berlin hot. There has been a larger volume of interest in the ocean freight market, bus iness being on quite an active scale early in the week, becoming quieter at the close. Engagements were made both to the U. K. and continental ports, par- ticularly the continent, reaching from immediate loading up to August and = me Fort Worth, Tex., advices are that the wheat crop is now passing through. its critical period, and unless they have good rains within two weeks the crop will be cut short fully 60 per cent. With- out rains the harvest wil) not be over 9,000,000 bu. Rust damaged will be about 10 to 18 per cent. Corn and oats are also suffering from lack of rain. E. N. Farris, representative of the Mod- ern Miller, who is ona tri through Kan- Sas. writes as follows: ave made close inquiry from millers and farmers about wheat. They all say that notwithstanding the severe frosts, wheat is in splendid con- dition.“ A London cable states that European s plies of bread stuffs on May were .- 296,000 bu. where on same date last year they were 67,781,000 bu. San Francisco wires: Drouth continues and the weather bureau reports tempera- tures of interior Calffornia ranged 6 to 16 above normal, with no rain in sight. Marshal!, Mo., wires: A well known farmer from Marshall. Mo., says the frost and cold weather did not damage wheat or Oats. Liverpool cables that Paris reports hail storms. Late cables reported generally favorable weather in western Europe. None of the local flour mills. save one started up this morning, a labor strike causing the proprietors to remain closed until this was settled. This is expected to be done shortly London cables that the morning Lon- don papers are calling attention to the fact that the continent is securing most of the cargoes afloat, and pointing out that unless the United Kingdom can se- cure its share of the wheat afloat there will be absolute scarcity.
