JONES MADE 1T.

Col. .CHAs. III JONES is no longer the
managing editor of the st. Louis
Republic. The position was taken
from him last week by the directors
of the company. When Col. Jones
assumed the editorial management
of the Republic five years ago the
paper at once begun to show mark
ed improvement and eventually be-
came a modern newspaper, some
thing it could lay no clam to under
the management of it's former
editor, Col. VIM. Hyde, who
was brilliant editorial writer but
not success as managing editor.
When Col. Jones assumed control
the special telegraph service of the
paper was increased to cover wide
AREA and its news facilities were
made as complete by Col. Jones as
it was possible to do. The Republic
has always been a good paper but
under the direction of the deposed
editor it was made a newspaper. 1t
is claimed by those in opposition to
him that Col. Jones used the Re
pubNc's columns to further his per-
sonal interests and political aspira-
tions to that extent that the influence
and business of the paper were in
jeopardy. This may or may not be
true; but it is fact known to
all the Republics readers that
Col. Jones able management of the
news department OF this old estab-
lished journal brought it out of the
kinks and nearly doubled its former
circulation. Jones, ,withal, has some
enemies and the ridicule of a con-
temporaneous journal has given him
more or less notoriety not at all to be
desired. All this, however, does not
detract from Col. Jones' superior
ability as a progressive newspaper
man and the ablest editor ever at the
helm of the st. Louis Republic. 1t
is intimated that Col. Jones and his
brother, G. w. Jones, of the busi-
ness department ,are to retire. There
is rumor, ,also, to the effect that the
Jones brothers and others will start
an opposition Democratic morning
2-cent paper in st. Louis in the near
future.

Judge LaDham Dead.

Judge Philip Stewart Lanham,
who was welded last year to Mrs.
Elizabeth Lockridge of Sturgeon,
we'll known in Mexico, died in st.
Louis last week of cancer of the
stomach. The Judge became seri-
ously ill several months since and
remained confined to his bed until
his death. A St. Louis papers says :;
"Judge Lanham had been obliged
to use cruthes for many years. He
was a great huntsman and daring
rider. He killed two horses by rid
ing over the bluffs on his estate
before he finally dislocated his back
in one of his wild leaps. The Judge
was very popular. He gained his
title by serving on the bench of the
County Court Of Clayton for two
terms" Mrs, Lanham, before
her last marriage, was the widow OF
Dr.. Lockridge, of Sturgeon.

"Bab" n BuXOm Widow.

How many people know "Bab,"
the brilliant New York correspondent
for western newspapers? She is
not the young, smiling girl of sweet
sixteen our people take her to be,
but on the contrary is buxom wild
ow of forty. She is native of Balti-
more and her maiden name was
Isabel Allerdice Sloan. Twenty
four years ago she became acquaint-
ed with Col. William Mallon, an
Irish gentleman or some note, and
married him. They resided in the
old country until 1888 and came
back to America, Mallon dying a
year later. Mrs. Mallon found her
self without money or position: but
her Irish blood made her too proud
to go to relatives tor assistance so
she took newspaper work, being a
woman of good education. She
has made her living as newspaper
correspondent ever since, and has
acquired considerable money and
bonds.

CONFEDERATE ROME.
The Main Building at Higginsville
VIII Be Dedicated in June.

The main building of the Confed-
crate Home of Missouri at Higgins
vile, built by the Daughters of the
Confederacy of the State, will be ded-
icated with appropriate ceremonies
June 8 and 9. As the building is
the result of the women's work they
have been especially invited to at
tend the dedication. All d. o. G. s
will be entertained at the Home
during their stay at Higginsville.
The first day will be devoted to the
dedication ceremonies and visiting
the inmates. On June 8 there will
be business meeting of the lady
members of the D. 0. c. auxiliaries
to discuss plans for a permanent
organization. The present system
of working in concert, while entirely
voluntary and informal, has pro-
duced results so creditable to the
women of Missouri that it seems
desirable to form State association
upon the model of the Confederate
Home Association, and to continue
the work as long as destitute Con-
federate soldier remains in the state.
W.P. Barlow says of the women's
work: "This building, costing about
$24, ,O0O,is paid for by the women of
Missouri, organized into societies
auxiliary to the Confederate Home
Association under the name of
Daughters of the Confederacy. In
this work the Daughters Of the Con-
federacy of the State have done
their full share, and we hope to see
large number of them at the dedi-
cation. Our plant at the Home now
cost over s6O,OOO."

They are OF heroic size and very
boldly executed; not detail has
escaped the loving care of the fin.
de-siecle sculptors, who learned
their calling in Europe.
The majority of figures are of civ
illzed men and a few are of savages.
The few savages are sculptured with
regard for the feelings of the West,
for each wears a tiny piece of cover
ing just as our red Indians do. This
badge of modesty is what the cow
boys call a ''gee string" and what
in the East is known as breech
cloth.
But the civilized or white men
are guiltless of all covering except
their compilations. They are forty
feet up in the air, but are SO large
that they might as well be on level
with the public for all the conceal
ment they make.
Their effect on the people from
the interior is always interesting and
is sometimes calculated to excite
compassion for the people. Some
are visibly panied and shocked and
some are plainly indignant. Wives
drag their husbands away. and
mothers and sisters, after one start
led glance. tug at their children to
lead them out of danger before they
have seen the statues and it is too
late.
The artists of this country in the
United States galleries present more
nude figures than would have been
expected, and even the English col
lection, unlike the reputation that
such collections have earned, is
full of studies of undraped human
beings. What must be seen in the
German, the French and the Span
ish galleries can be imagined as well
as described.
The German gallery, for instance,
one large and most striking picture
represents a ferocioIs giant who has
cast a net into the sea and drags
out dozen sea nymphs. They are
simply females of our race wholly
unincumbered with raiment. One
of these he has taken from the net
and is holding high above his head,
pinching her between his gigantic
fingers as an entomologist pinches a
bug that ne captures.
A great many people who at home
frequent barber shops to study the
pictures found in the Police Neaus
appear to find much in the art hall
to attract them and only regret that
the figures are placed so high
(there is no complaint about any
other figures being too high) and
that they are not human beings.
Art covers a multitude of sins, per-
haps, but hardly ever the nude but
it would not be nude if covered,
would it? r. M. WHITE.

A City of Hotels.
CHICAGO CAN ACCOMMODATE HALF
THE POPULATION OF THE
EARTH.
Nothing Free But the Weather and
Lake Water-DOn't 60 10 the
Worlds Fair Until June
or July-EditOrs In
Convention.

MECCA HOTEL, CHICAGO, Ill. May
1S.-We have found one thing free
in Chicago in any quantity, in any
place, at any time and of any quail
ty. 1t is the weather and you don u
have to see concessionaire to be
suited. There are people here from
every cline and you can have all
kinds of climate in twenty-four
hours. This is we'll, if you like a
change.
Chicago is truly city of hotels.
At this time there are fully as many
hotels as saloons. Some of the
buildings used for hotels might be
called cattle pens, but for that mat
ter some of the saloons might be
called dives.
Missouri is getting her share of
glory out of the Worlds Fair. We
have good building, our exhibits
are fine and reflect credit on the
state.
The National Editorial Associa-
ton is in session here with head
quarters at the Mecca Hotel and is
having splendid meeting. Dele
gates are here from every state in
the Union and we are all being roy
ally entertained. The delegates are
seeing, eating-and We were going
to say drinking-the best there is in
the city and the citizens have ar.
ranged several most enjoyable treats
and have given us the freedom OF
the city and Chicago knows how tc
entertain when she tries. Chicago
knows how to do most everything
and does most everything. We pre-
dict that Chicago will in some way
get full control of the exhibits at the
Worlds Fair and continue it a year
or SO longer if it pays. "Does il
pay?" is heard much oftener here
than even "what will you have?"
Next to Carter Harrison the
greatest curiosity here are the
people and exhibits from foreign
countries. You could easily spent
two weeks studying the foreign ex
hibits and you could size the grea
Carter Harrison up one side and
down the other in much less time
unless you are looking at him from
Carter's standpoint.
The people here are now yer,
much interested about Sunday and
the opening of the Fair on Sunday
One thing Is sure-everything else
in Chicago will be wide open or
Sunday and the prospects appear
now to be that the money received
from Congress will be paid back and
the fair will be open, but the ma
chinery not in motion on that day
This is thought to be best by those
who ask "does it pay" financially
to keep it open on Sunday. Those
"financiers" call those who are op.
posed to Sunday opening "Cantine
Puritans. They would call those
opposed to murder and anarchism
by the same names "if it paid them
to riot md kill.
We would advise our friends not
to come to the Fair until the SECOND
week in June at the earliest. II
will be in full blast then in all its
glory. Chicago is amply able tc
take care of the immense crowd that
will come and all that they bring
with them so there is no use to stay
away for fear you can't find room
You can find anything you want anc
some things you don't want here.
Go to the Chicago Fair; sit viii
pay." The Mexico fair "won'
pay" this year but will next, W.
think. R. Nj. WHITE.

ly acute, and, in personating the
above named gentleman, her appre-
citation of his rather embarrassing
surroundings at times was clearly
shown in her perfect limitations and
evident enjoyment of the scene. Her
rendition was not only very enter
tanning but highly instructive; she
introduced young hopeful in cord
uroy and brass buttons, thereby
disclosing the fact that brass but
tons were not always military"
The last contestant was Miss
Rhome, universally popular in our
city not only as fine elocutionist but
as a charming young lady. She was
becomingly as well as appropriately
costumed in black Roman robes and
her appearance excited enthusias-
tic greetings from lovers of the
Melponenean art and the lady.
1t would be difficult to do justice in
describing Miss Rhome's effort.
Suffice to say that her perfect ges-
lures and fine vocal and facial ex-
pressions are rarely equalled. Every
syllable was clear and distinct up TO
the close of her tale of passion
1.-The Confessional"
In the Delsarte drill, occupying
the intermission, Misses Curtley,
Ware and johnson deserve special
mention as regards grace in atti-
tudes and expression of emotions.
The tableau, "a charm from the
skies,'' was truly poets or an ar
lists fancy Sin an hour of ease."
Miss Pindall, the medalist of '92,
acted in pantomine with her usual
grace of movement and beauty of
expression with Miss Rhome's read
ing of the "The Famine" as fitting
accompaniment.
President Yancey next awarded
diplomas to Misses Gosnell, Rhome
and Pindall, the graduates in elocu-
ton. After the customary prolong-
ed half hour the judges, Rev. Tay-
lor, J. G. Trimble and Prof. Car
rington, announced themselves ready
to satisfy consuming curiosity and
award the medals, Mr.. Trimble ap-
pearing as spokesman. With much
'fear and trembling" he marched to
the foot-lights and stated that al
though he had insisted upon one of
the other gentlemen announcing the
decision they seemed to think his
stray locks were not SO precious as
their own luxuriant curls. After
several more tantalizing remarks had
been made and several more groans
had gone up from among those in
terested, the medals were awarded
respectively to Miss Saunders and
Miss Ware.
This contest is only the beginning
of the June festival and if the series
of entertainments are as brilliant as
the first we may expect something
good.
