TALKING TO A MAN.
A st. Louis Woman Tries to Draw Out
His Second Best Ideas

Said society woman, known for her
tact and quantity of friends. whom a St.
Louis Republic reporter queried as to her
social tactics: II have a plan-possibly
not original, but certainly successful-of
ignoring the especially pleasant thing q
man necessarily knows about himself.
Each one has q particular accomplish
ment that this world invariably 'tacks' to
his name. He is pleased, of course, to
possess this one accomplishment. but,
rest assured, he secretly wonders if it can
be the sum total of his attraction. So /

If he has the virtue of dressing we'll; then

mark of his. i make point of mention
ing it to him.
"If, on the other hand, he is clever,
then particularly admire a certain suit
of clothes, or the fashion in his ties. If
he dances we'll, then l find that he has
made some good business deals. Be per-
fectly sure, my dear, he will think you
vastly more appreciative than any other
woman, and the undefiled gratitude he
feels at the bright side of himself you
have reflected back brings you many a
delightful attention. This is not hypo-
criscy in me, nor silly vanity in him. l
love TO be treated after that manner my
self, and my gratitude is quail to the

said" has penetrating charm for The
listener. be it man or woman. A final bit
of advice is one of the well known arts of
conversation-paradoxical as 1t may seem
be a patient, sympathetic listener. For

impress you more with his cleverness than

Miss Mary Merington's argument at
the meeting of the New York Library as
sociation that the boys and girls "should
read the best daily papers," was good.
Newspapers" she said, "are current his
tory, and in the reading of any one of the
best of them the young mind is broad
cned.' This is the truth; it is evidence
that Miss Merington has observed those
influences that affect boys and girls. How
destructive TO the youthful mind, as also
to the mature mind. 1t must DO to read
daily paper that is fun of lies, obliquities,
fakes, insanIties and all evil things? 1t
degrades the spirit; it paves the way to
ruin; it is satanic. 1t is of especial inn
portance that young people, tho boys and
girls, should be cautioned against such n
paper by their parents, who themselves
ought never to touch 1t, from the fear that
they will be infected in such a way as to
poison their own families.
"Read only the best daily paper" is the
wise advice of Miss Mcrington.

ENGINEER SHOT TO DEATH
Decd of Three Men Who bearded an
Alton Express Train.

The st. Louis and Chicago express on
the Alton road was held MP by robbers
half a mile north of Carlinyille, H.,
at about midnight Wednesday. Three
men boarded the locomotive and ordered
the engineer, Frank Holmes, Of Bloom
ington. to throw up his hands. He refus-
ed and was shot and Instantly killed.
Three shots were fired. All three robbers
we're caught and placed in jail. The one
who shot Holmes was captured by n mail
clerk rs he was getting of the cab. No
one else WAS hurt. 1t is not known
whether robbery was the motive for the
crime or not. The belief is current that
the engineer was murdered by reyengeful
tramps. In the morning when going
south, 1T Carlinyiile, he compelled some
Migrants 10 leave the train. \ few mo-
Tents later lie discovered some tramps
burning cars on the y" and succeeded
in driving them away He was a reso-
lutte man and despite the threats of the
ho5oS that they would get even with him
he dispersed them. These facts, coupled
with that of the murder taking place in
the same vicinity. strengthened the the
cry that he WIS murdered by some of the
trau-ps. Holmes was aged about 10. He
was son Of Judge Holmes. who was one
of the pioneer lawyers OF Bloomington,
and WIS connected with the Alton road
for quarter OF century.
