In the case of the teaming concern it was interfering with the business activity of a foreign corporation. The Employers’ Teaming Co. ig incorporated under the laws of West Virginia. A problem of grave concern whitch de- veloped suddenly and which the great busi- ness establishments af State street must solve within the next few days is the pro- curing of coal. Should the strict boycott which the unicns are attempting to enforce against the strike-affected houses prove really successful, there will be a dearth of fuel in the bins, necessitating, perhaps, the shutting down of light, heat and ele- vators. Power May Be Shut Off. - Not only are the big stores in danger, but even the power houses of the Union Trac- tion Co. may be handicapped by lack of coal. The teameters of the Peabody Coal Co., which supplies the Union Traction Co., are on strike. ‘The teamsters today, in meeting, forbade the delivery of grain and hay at barns of the boycotted firms. “If they starve us, we'll starve horses,’’ was the slogan. The hotels, restaurants and big markets have not yet felt any i)l effects from the ) strike. Today, however, the drivers for one of the largest milk ccoinpanies in the city may go out. Unless the milk men cease making deliveries to the restaurants and tearooms in the State street stores, several other large dealers may be affected. The meat situation also is involved. A meeting of packers was held at the stock- yards this morning to consider the situa- tion. The State street stores are deter- mined to secure meat supplies, both for their grill rooms and for their trade. The Lumbermen's Association, embrac- ing the 6 largest dealers in lumber in Chi- cago, met this morning in a last effort to prevent the defection of their drivers. Con- ferences with President Shea and other of- ficials of the Teamsters’ Union falled to bring about a modification of the situation. President John 8. Field of the Knicker- bocker Ice Co., is reported to be hurrying home from the East. The icewagon driv- ers bave announced their intention to re- main out of the contest, but in spite of their determination they unavoidably may be drawn into it. All are interrelated. NO ORDERS AS YET AT JEFFERSON BARRACKS. When Lieut.-Col. Godwin, post command- er at Jefferson Barracks, was asked Sat- urday morning concerning the report that troops from that post would be ordered (o Chicago for strike duty, he replied that he had received ne orders of that kind. There are less than 500 troops at Jefferson Barracks just now, and half of those are recruits. There are four troops of the Ninth .cevelry, comprising 40 men, and three companies of recruits, comprising a little mere than 200 men. NISAPPEARS ON EVE OF MARRIAGE Edward L.

Officials of labor organizations in 8t. Louls, representing about 9,000 men, say the labor conditions in St. Louls at v é present are in so satisfactory a con@- tion that May 1 of 19% will be passed without a strike of consequence. Such statements were made to a Post- Dispatch reporter by H. W. Steinbiss, sec- retary and treasurer of the International Bullding Trades Council, representing ev- ery important city in the United States and Canada; by J. E.

There is comparatively no friction, and it can be positively stated that no strike or disturb- ance of any magnitude will occur this May or this summer. No Workmen Idle. “It was freely predicted in some quarters that following the World's Fair year there would be a reaction, that work would be dull and itthat labor troubles would be rife. Events have demonstrated the fuisity of the view. No classes are idie in St. Louls today amd the workmen are enjoying the samme eoale of wages that they did during the cration of the World's Fair."

She testified that he was a drunkard, and beat and kicked her, and on one occasion threw her to the or and shed her throat with a knife. eee time he beat one of the children, slamming it aguinst the wall.

They awaited further word from him, but none came and, Thursday, James Jackson of Oakford, father of Edward Jackson, and Dr. Edelen of Carterville, father of the girl, began a search for the recreant young man. They followed up every clew, but have not yet been able to locate him. The theory advanced, Friday, that Miss Matilda Polanek of this city had something to do with Jackson's disappearance was almost entirely unfounded, and it has been proven that she was ill at her home at 4275A Finney avenue from Saturday even- ing till Wednesday morning and that she nerther saw Jackson nor knew he was in town.

~ DEATH OF EN. FINZAUGH Ltt Comments Dead Confederate Oommander Are Little Less Than Eulogies — Arrangements for Funeral Not Yet Completed. END, DUE TO APOPLEXY, SUDDEN AND PAINLESS Labors in Connection With James- town Exposition Largely Re- ‘sponsible for Fatal Iliness—Life Full of Thrilling Incident. WASHINGTON, April 2.—Arrangements for the funeral of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, who died at Providence Hospital in this city, at 11:30 o'clock last night, following a stroke of apoplexy, have not yet been announced, nor has the place of burial been determined. Mrs. Lee arrived in Washington this morning from Oglethorpe, Ga. Unless this City ia selected for the interment, tite body of Gen. Lee will probably be buried in Virginia, his native state. The death of Gen. Lee came suddenly and was without pain. There were pres- ent at his bedside when the end came his son, Daniel Lee. and Drs. Eddie and Kean. Yesterday morning, while en route from Boston to Washington, Gen. Lee suffered a stroke of paralysis. Upon reaching this city he was immediately taken to Provi- dence Hospital and his condition was con- sidered very favorable, considering the se- verity of the attack, until about 10 o'clock last night. when a change came for the worse. His Life History. Maj. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, United States army, was born at Clearmont, Fairfax County, Va., on November 10, 1835. He was the son of Commodore Sydney Smith Lee and nephew of Gen. Robert E. Lee. He uated from the United States m academy in 18% and was com- missio second lieutenant in the Second Tnited States cavalry. He took purt in the Indian wears of the time and was se- verely wounded. eres (aed to 308i he wes tnstrudtor. of cavairy in the military academy, at West Point, resigned in 1861 and emtered the confederaite army as adjutant in Gen. Ewell's brigade. He remained with Ewell'’s brigade until September of 1561, aah he resigned to become lieutenant colonel of the First Virginia cavalry par- ticipating in all the battles of the army of Northern Virginia, from 1361 to 1862. On July 2%, 1862, he became brigadier- general and on September 3, 1863, rose to a major-generalship. Ak the battle of Winchester, Va. on September 19, 1864, he had three horses shot under him and was himecif severely wounded. Until March, 186, he had com- mand of the entire cavalry corps of the army of Northern Virginia unti]) he sur- rendered to Gen. Meade at Fatmville. From 1886 to 1880, Gen. Lee wae gov- erner of Virginia and from 1893 unti!] the declaration of war with Spain was United States consul to Havana. In, May of 1898 he was appointed major-general United Btates volunteers and later placed in com- mand of the Seventh army corps. After the war he became military governor of Havana, January 1, 1899, and after hie re- turn from Cuba Gen. Lee was in command of the department of Missouri, United States army. New York Comments.

Morgan Smith Regarded as Damaging to Miss Patterson. TRIAL NEARLY CONCLUDED Defense Puts in No Evidence, Hold- ing That Prosecution Has Not Proved Case. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NDW YORK, Apri 29.—If Nan Patterson is sent to the electric chair Julia Morgan Smith, her sister, will be in a measure responsible for her death. At least this is the opinion of those who have watched the trial closely. Her fate will be known Monday, for the defense decided not to put in any evidence, holding thet the prosecution had failed to make its case. It was a shrewd move on the part of Assistant District Attorney Rand to call Mrs. Smith, one of the chief witnesses for the defense, to the stand. In the for- mer trial Nan Patterson had testified that ghe was not in the least degree perturbed Guring the dy previous to the murder, notwithstanding her sister's letter to Cesar Young to that effect. Mrs. Smith, under a terrific bombard- ment of questions, asserted point biank that Nan was wild and frantic at the thought of Cesar Young's change of heart. In this way the prosecution sought to prove a motive. Thus either Jude Morgan Smith or Nan Patterson wes placed in the position of giving false testimony. It is probable that this fact had something to do with the decision of the defense to produce no wit- nesses in their effort to clear their client. Almost from the opening to the closing of court the opposing lawyers fought and wrangled over scraps of testimony as wolves fight over bits of bone. Two pawn tickets, issued by Stern, the pawnbroker from whom the, pistol was bought, had been found in 3. Smith's trunk. She said the pawned articles were hers and that her husband had pawned them. “Now, I want to see these pawn tickets,’ shouted Mr. Levy, counsel for Nan. “O, not unless they are put in as evi- dence,"’ said Mr. Rand. “Then I will consent that they go in as evidence,’’ said Mr. Levy. They proved to be dated Oct. 4, 1904. Young was killed in the previous June. Mr. Rand believes that the tickets are re- newal tickets, and that the articles were pawned at a dante much earlier. At the dates mentioned in the tickets the Smiths were supposed to be out of this city. Smith was then a; fugitive from justice, having been deciared in contempt of court by Judge Newberger. The indictments against husband and wife were not found until after their arrest in Cincinnati. Mr. Rand persisted in his line of questioning. Q. Don’t you know that these are ranew- ai tickets for articles pledged before? A. I do not. “I now ask the disirict attorney to pro- duce the pawn tickets of June 3,” shouted Mr, Levy. “I have not got them,” replied Mr. Rand. In answer to the defendant's niotion for u @iemissal of the indictment, Mr. Rand eald that he did not claim that the articles shown in court, the property of Mrs. Smith, had been pawned either by her or her husband on June 3 last. That was the evening the pistol wags bought. With this admission, the only interpretation put on the production of the tickets was that Mr. Rand hoped to show that Morgan Smith was a frequent visitor at Stern's >aw?- shop. The arguments will begin Monday. No World's Fair wntertainment this sum- DESTRUCTION IN TRAIL OF STORM Wind and Rain Cause Hundreds_of Thousand Dollars’ Loss in Missouri and Illinois.

OS WAECIED BY STORM Wind, Rain and Hail Do Heavy Damage in St. Louis and Vicinity. rVort eS CHILDREN CARRIED BY GALE At World’s Fair Grounds and East of River Buildings Were Destroyed. Reports of damage which came in Sat- urday indicate that the storm which struck St. Louis in two sections Friday after- noon was severe over parts of both Mis- souri and Illinois. So far as has been learned, the only fa- tality was in St. Louis, but buildings were blown down and unroofed and other dam- age was done. In places where the wind was not so strong there was a heavy fall of rain and hail. Early in the afternoon there was a heavy rainfall, and some hail in St. Louis and vicinity. About 5 o’clock there was a se- vere wind and rain storm, The north wall of the Horticulture build- ing at the Fair was blown down, and Nicholas Popers of 117 East Grand avenue, a wrecker, was caught under it and so badly crushed that he died later at the City Hospital. The smokestack at the Insane Asylum blew against some live wires and caused an electrical display. A still alarm was sent to engine company No. 35, near at hand, but nobody was hurt and the dam- age was not great. A chimney at the home of Robert War- ner, 1716 South Seventh reet, was struck by ‘lightning.

But accepting the total as fairly accurate, St. Louis has, gained since the last national census of five years ago approximately 140,000. This, is an h other careful average per year of 25,000 persons. "f the average annual gain does not increase within the next five years the population of the city in 1910 will be 854,000, d with the forecast of the Post-Dispatch in the | er a religion of one sort or auother ought by law. é Certainly barbers, butchers and hundreds of others in vari- ous employments can be called on for work on Sundays which seems absolutely essential for public comfort. ; Just as certainly, even more certainly, they have a right to one day in the week for their own comfort, if they are to have any comfort in life at all. The “Blue Sunday” of the Puritan period belongs to the seventeenth century and it ought to be left there.. But the day of rest for barbets and everyone else is one of the great- est blessings of life in all centuries, No one for his own com- fort has a right to take it from anyone else. = = = - - Surely Chicago does not approve the alleged movement among her legislators to defeat the free bridge bill in retaliation for St. Louis opposition to the drainage canal. Chicago has never been accused of small meanness. >=! = Se SMALL PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS. The report of the St. Louis Open Air Playground Commit- tee for 1904 is an exceedingly interesting and important doc- ument. It shows how popular and helpful were the six play- grounds maintained by the committee, in the crowded districts of the city, during the two months of the summer in which they remained open, No less than 104,517 enjoyed these playgrounds, including the ball games, swings, games, libraries, concerts, free baths and other sources of recreation and instruction. All these children were kept off the streets and profitably employed and diverted, at a total cost of $2130 for the two months.

But the increase for the next five years will be greater than the increase of the past five years. With the same percentage of gain the natural annual increase will be larger. The gain from year to year is progressive. But there is good reason to expect an increase in the percentage due to exceptionally favorable conditions. Within the next five years St. Louis will reap the benefits of the city’s exposition work. 5t. Louis: is now known to the whole world as a wealthy and progressive city and as a great manufacturing and commercial center. The city gained greatly in the estimation of the public. Her ad- vantages and resources are recognized. Instead of a reaction there is an uplift after the exposition.

Barnes & Co. announce a third edition of Abraham Cahan's novel of revolutionary Russia, “The White Terror and the Red.” This romance of Ruasian revolutionary life is evidently true to fact, and is most skilfully woven. The tragedy of the story is heightened by the fact that some of the leading characters are JeWish. The revolutionary Jew or Jewess, sacri- ficing all that is worth while in material life tor the good of a country which fails to protect and even persecutes his race is indeed a splendid figure. In this story the incidents surrounding and lea up to the assassination of Alexander 11 are well told, as are aleo those that usuelly occur during an uprising against the Jews in Russia. It is a sad story, but full of vitai- ity and color. . —_—— ——— The June Designer.

Rider Haggard, author of “The Breth- ren, who has been traveiing in America as the representative of the British goyv- érnmem investigating the question of over- crowding of population in cities and its relief by rural colonization, has come to the conclusion that conditions in America are not much better than abroad. He re- cently delivered an address before the students at the University of California, in which he said: ‘I do not want to talk about American conditions, but from what I! have seen and from what your statesmen tell me the lot of the poor here is just as bad as it is in my own country. The prob- lem is just as real as it is in Engiand, and you will have to solve it sooner or later. He said further that the congested condition of city life is responsible for race suicide of the gravest type, and that unless the .degeneration of our ple, due to the presence of great evils in cities; is stopped, we will be in danger of being swept out of existence by a conquering eastern peo- ple. . ”?

C)ub. Ph! ladelpbia Detroit Broewnes New York Washington Hank O’Day, who isa guest of the Lindell Hotel and who is here to umpire the Cin- cinnati-Cardinal game ‘today, has some original views on batting. He said this morning: “You can change the rules if you wish, but you won't get any more batting. Why? For two excellent reasons: The hitters are not there, and the fleiders are present in great quantities. The big league players of 19% will average two inches less in height and twenty-five pounds lees in weight than the ball players of 188%. Their hits will average a good deal iess in proportion thajt that, but what's the uge? It's a plain fact that the hitters nowadays are not in it with the hitters of the past, and yet people wonder why the batting has decreased. A few years ago the first seven men on any team could generally hit the ball and the Catchers, too, were great sluggers. To-day the team is lucky if it has three euch batters. You admire the slugging of Wagner and Lajoic. They are wonders to- Gay, but are merely repetitions of the batemen who used to be members of every club."’ “What would the old fellows do if they were still in the game?" “It's my honest belief that even with the foul strike and the great fielding w hinder them those old boys would soak the modern pitching till they would hardly ever get put out.

CLEVELAND, O., Aprfif 2.—With victory annexed as a result of John Mor- gan’s ‘“‘spitball," Manager McAleer and the Browns held a reception this morning at the Hotel Euclid. Morgan, whom Man- ager McAléer did not have any too mech confidence in, made good right from the start, and forced the Clevelands to swish the air and held them down to aix hits, three of them coming in the seventh inning. Cleveland would have been shut out had it not been for Stone's misjudgment. “We must take this afternoon's game,” remarked Manager McAleer at the ball park today, shortly after his return from his night's vieit to his home in Youngs- town. “I knew Morgan had something on Cleveland batters if he could place the ball over, but was afraid he might be a trifie wild. So my last instructions to him were to keep the ball over the plate at all times, and trust to luck.” The Cleveland players are a unit in Not omee this “Naps” been able to do anything with it, and this morning Presi- _ dent Kilfoyl of the Cleveland club, and a member of the rules committee, said he would take the matter wp with the other ny Rage the committee In a few days. ra There ls a geteral clamor aguinat this 1 from all players.”"’ remarked President foyl, “and if the other magnates are ing.

They were batling aguinst great pitchers, too, and pitchers who worked from a short distance, and yet how they did hit that ball. The batters of today are not only feebler men individually—all their fancy os tame doesn't make up for their inferi- oo. in size and main slugging power— ut they are up against fielding which has grown almost machine-like in its per- fection. Today they have the field: studied like a Japanese general's war map. As one man comes up, you see the infield draw back and the outfield retreat toward the fence. For the next man, the outfield will come in, the second baseman will move down toward first and the third baseman away in. I was talking to the American League magnates not long ago, and I told them that they could get more batting by a pacers ing the rules. ast year anybody could pitch american League, for the ahenen eae “iowed to do just what they pleased. A rigid enforcement of the balk rule will help some, but in my opinion it's a case of small batsmen, small hits.’’ |BASEBALL SCORE NATIONAL LEAGUE Ee Jean Cincinnati, St. Louls.

Manager McAleer announced early in the preperatory season that the Browns would have to do better work on the bags this year, and many a morning and afternoon has been devoted to special instruction along this line. Time after time we would line up ct the flest bag and at the word start a race with the bail that was thrown from the catchers to catch us at the sec- ond bag. McAleer laid special stress on the ‘“‘dive in’’ and the proper .method to elude the ‘‘touch.” Many a morning have I seen him with that old gray uniform sprinting those W feet in quick Ume and then throw himself at the big from the itirst base corner and squirm quickly until he Was lying with his feet pointing at third base.

RUSSELL SUCCEEDS AS MINISTER AT CARACAS Representatives to Columbia, in Turn, Is Succeeded by Diplomat at Panama—Bowen May Be Sent to Chili. WASHINGTON, April 299.—Secretdry Taft has received instructions from the Presi- dent to call Minister Bowen, now at Carac- as, to Washington; also to send Mr. Rus- sell, now minister to Colombia, to Caracas, and Mr. Barrett. now minister at Pan- ama, to Colombia. It is thought that Mr. Bowen has been recalied to explain first, why he furnished the Loomis charges for publication and second, what grounds he hae for belleving them to reeset upon any other foundation than the malevolence of President Castro. Bowen's alleged furnishing of the charges to the New York Herald is held to be an aguravated offense, because when he mentionod tw Secretary Hay some time ago the fact that stories affecting the in- tegrity of his predeceesor as minister at Caracas were in circulation at the Vene- fueclan capital, he was admonished to be- ware of the stories, as they had already been inquired into and found untrue It is a fact jvst developed that Minister Bowen reported the charges to -Secretary Hay and was advised to do what he could to protect the good name of his predeces- sor. Failure on his part now to make 4 satisfactory explanation undoubtedly . would mean his instant dismissal, It would not surprise anyone here if President Roosevelt should dismiss him even without giving him a chance to ex- plain, because he knows that Bowen dis- euseed the charges with Secretary Hay and had the latter's opinion that there is no foundation for them. Even if Bowen should satisfy the Presi- dent that he had nothing to do with the publication of the charges and wae actu- ated only by purest motives in sending copies of the charges to Secretary Taft, s admitted Ahat he would not return to , but probably be sent to hill, where there is now a vacancy. is Loomis scandal is only one of 10 important subjects awaiting consideration y President Roosevolt.

Special to the Post-Dinpatch. NEW YORK, April 29.—Wall street prices thie morning still reflected the uncertainty ot As regarding the future course of ecurities, both gains and losses being nee equally distributed throughout . the list. The trading was active, heavy blocks of stock changing hands in the first few rninutes of the séssion. Little of importance in the financial world has developed over night to cause any decided change in speculative senti- ment and a market wit many quick changes either way is looked forward to by the professional! clement. London's range on American securities before the local opening was irregular, but in most cases slightly higher, although business at that center is exceedingly quiet, most of the orders being in the na- ture of support from this side. Pandemonium feel it on the stock ex- change during the second hour and quota- tions were practically loet for a_ time. What appeared as fluctuations on the tape were simultaneous transactions in many casts, stocks being sold In one por- tion of the crowd several points away from those being made on the other side of the crowd. The extreme declines repre- sented by some of the confused price re- ports showed losses in Atlantic Coast Line of 7%, martntpntere preferred 9%, Buffaio, Hocheeter & Pittsburg 11%, Bt. Paul, Met- ropolitan Securities, Northwestern and Tennessee Coal 5 to 6%, Union Pacific, New York Central, Reading, Kansas & Texas preferred, Cleveland, Cc. C. & St. Louis, Smelting and Pressed Steel Car 4 to 5 | pcunts and Southern Pacific, L. & N. the United States Steel stocks, Amalgamated Cupper, Colorado Fuel, Erie second pre- ferred and Twin City Rapid Transit 3 points or upward. . .- a Commission houses were still active séliers of the general Mst all during the session, much of the liquidation bting in the nature of an aftermath to the de- cline previpitated from the break in wheat and the financial troubles in Mil- waukee. Much stock was no doubt car- ried through this period of selling by the interests holding the collateral, rather than add to the weakness and pressure by throwing it upon the market, and with the most urgent liquidation elim- inated this stock was quickly placed on the market by the interests carrying it, and it will probably be some days before the market adjusts itself to the new level of credits brought about by this selling. . ¢ -“ Many of the leading pools have suffered severely im the past week, owing to the fact that the banking interests have been driven by the “signs of the times” in the financial situation to curb to a large | ou extent the highly dangerous operations by these interests in special securities. The bank senteanett. shown an increase in surplus reserves of $6 217.20, a decreate in loan of $5,182,060 and = ‘nerease in cash Of $3,857,200, was considered highly favrr- able, but had little it any eect on prices. Rumors of et troubles were freelv circulated on the floor of the Exchange in the last half hour of the trading and under the influence of these stocks wre thrown over in an enormous volume. ‘TJhe uexcite- ment on the floor was intens: and in the active issues many of the iec!'nes recerd- ed were sensational. The strong support given many leading issues were swept 4way and for some minutes the entire list was semi-demoralized. The ‘tould ehares and the Harriman issues were the center of a terrific selling movement, blouks of thou- sands of shares in Union Facilic being thrown over almost regardioss of price. The lMauidation continued on an enormous scale until the close, which whe uctive and wea ye generally 3 to 5.n,ints lower for the }GO00 ARRESTS WON THEIR PROMOTIONS —— -—- g>-- —- -- Special Officers Cosgrove and Murphy Elected Detectives Under the Merit System. When Special Officers Fred Cosgrove and Patrick J. Murphy were made detect- ives by the Board of Police Commissio! ers Friday, both Chief Kiely and Chief Desmond were pleased. The promotions were made under the merit system. When it became necessary to fill the places of James Tracy and Henry Frese, the veteran detectives who died recently, Chiefa Kiely and Desmond instructed the special officers working under Desmond to submit written reports concerning what they oonsidered their best arrests during the last year. From these reports the chiefs selected those of Cosgrove, Murphy. August Dooley—who arrested gthe slayer of A. Deane Cooper—Thomas 'McNeil and Hugh MecQueilin. The reports were submitted to the police board, and out of the five men named the commissioners elected Cosgrove and Mur- phy, for the reason that the cases which they handled were affairs that affected the whole community. Corgrove arrested John Miller. George Burne and John Ryan, who came here dur- ing the carriage drivers’ strike last year. aceording to their written confessions, to assault nonunion drivers and terrorize the eity. They had acid, which they threw on the horses; ‘‘nigger-shooters,’’ with which they fired bullets into carriages: they burned more than one vehicle and as- saulted both drivers and passengers. M'ller wan sentenced to two years in the penitentiary for assault to kill. Burns and Ryan were acquitted. In this same connection Cosgrove s8¢- ovred the conviction of Thomas Conroy and Thomas MclLerpy on cha of as- sault to kill Each was fined $100. Murphy, with Detouxve James Moran, a police oarpoant rounded up and arrested Frank ard, Edward Seely and Joun C. ean, bank robbers and safe- blowers, who were rooming at 686 South Broadway. In their possession were found burgiar tools, powder, nitroglycerin and other ominous paraphernalia.

Dealers report the outlook fairly encouraging. de- spite an uncertain stock market, and all look forward to greater activity in May.” St. Louls has more Post- Dispatch read. ers every day than it has homes. “First in everything.’’ HELD FOR KILLING OVER BEER CASE Coroner’s Jury ‘Names William Fox as Slayer of Thomas Dawson in Fight. Willlam Fox-was named by a coroner's jury Saturday morning as the slayer of Thomas Dawson, aged 17 years. The ver- dict was homicide.

Wednesday night he returned the case, bug ~ according to agreement, but two or three bottles were missing. He became/|. engaged in a quarrel with the bartender, in consequence. Young Dawson went to the ald of the bartender, and Fox stabbed him with a knife. Dawson died % hours later. He resided at 270 Stoddard street.

DRAGS THE SITTER OUT Passengers Beam Approval and One 'l'aught “Manners” Drops Off Before Destination. The street car courtesy question has been settled, temporarily at least, by the ar- bitrament of arms. One South St. Louls broker has settled it in favor of the fem- inine as far as the zone of his dominant influence extends. He settled i Friday evening with his hard right first. The broker was going home on a Fourth street car after the close of business Fri- day. He had a seat and was enjoying it, but when a middle-aged woman of stout habit climbed aboard and balanced herself aguinst the back of his seat he got wp and offered his seat to her. But while he was saying. ‘O don't mention it,” a lanky male strap passenger dropped into the va- cated place with a huge sigh of satisfac- tion. The broker politely told him that he had vacated the seat for the lady, but the man said he had !t in a manner that indicated his opinion that nothing remained to be said and his wish to be left alone to the enjoyment of his homeward bound siesta. The broker saw that it was up to him to settle the politeness problem, even if he had to be impolite to do !t. He gave the sitter a poke !n the face for politeness sake and grabbed him by the shoulders and dragged him out of the seat, while the other passengers beamed their ap- proval. The broker bowed the woman to the seat. The sitter got off before he reached his ‘destination.

Deafness, Hissing Soundsin Head, Stomach Disorder, Palpitation of Heart and Debility Overcome at Last. Mr. Newman eertainly had a very tough time with the grip, and it is no wonder that he thinks that the remedy that*cured him can’t be beat. His case shows how profoundly grip poisons the system and how obstinately it resists all ordinary efforts to eradicate it. Few cases can be worse than Mr: New- man’s for he had head, heart and stom- ach troubles combined with great weak- ness. He recently said : ‘The attack of grip which I had eight years ago left me in a very bad fix. I became nearly deaf and my head ached continually and was filled with hissing and roaring sounds. My heart fluttered and had regular runniug-away spells. My stomach was so sore that I could hardly bear a toueh on that part of my body. I had a great deal of pain in the region of my liver and the doctor said that organ was enlarged. My kidneys ached so at times that I could hardly stand,”’ “* Didn’t you give up and go to bed?” he was asked, ‘*No, I simply wouldn’t. My head and my back ached dreadfully, but I obstinately dragged myself abont, kept growing worse and finally ran down to almost nothing.’’ * What did you do to get relief?’’ ‘* First I tried a doctor, but he did me no good. Then I took all kinds of ad- vertised preparations but nothing proved helpful until I began to use Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, As soon as I got them I | knew that I had at last hit the right remedy for my case. The very first box did more for me than anything else lI had ever taken. They gave me relief right away and in three months they positively cured me. I think I was scarcely ever in better health in my life than I am at present.” Mr. William A. Newman is a well- known Camden county farmer, living at Sagrada, Missouri.
