IS OUT FOR SENATOR.
Ex-Gov. Stone a Candidate for
the United States Senate.
IS NOT A PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRANT.


st. Louis, Aug. 24..-"Ex-Gov. Will
liam j. Stone is not a candidate for
the democratic presidential nomina-
ton in 1904. Gov. Stone is candi-
date for the United States senator
ship and nothing else. You can say
that regardless Of all announcements
to the contrary and you can also say
that he will be the next United States
senator from Missouri He is the
only man in the race having show OF
election" The foregoing was the
declaration made by Col. Moses Wet
more to a reporter yesterday at the
Planters hotel. Col. Wetmore is a
close business, political and personal
friend of ex-Gov. Stone. He was an
ardent friend of his and liberal cam
paign supporter in 1896 and also in
1900, and it is well known that he en-
joys the closest social and political
intimacy with the ex-governor.
Ex-Gov. Stone was reported much
better and is improving so rapidly
that he is expected to be able to come
down to his office next week.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Prices. Except for some Irregularity In the
Cereals, Generally Steady = Little
Change In Iron and steel.

New York, Aug. 2f.-Bradstreet's
says: Evidence multiplies that the
tide of trade has turned and that it
is now setting strongly in the direc-
ton of an enlarged business at steady
or higher prices. Crop improvement,
particularly in the central west and
the Mississippi valley, has been the
main spring of the more cheerful
tone of advices and enlarged fall trade
operations at such cities as Chicago,
st. Louis and Kansas City. Even
from the so-called drought-stricken
corn belt some advices of quite sat
isfactory business, in some instances
reports being of larger jobbing
trade than in the corresponding period
Of a year ago. The notable strength
of cotton, partly, however, the result
of real or assured crop damage, has
been the active feature in the better
ment of southern trade adviees.
Prices, except for some irregularity
in the cereals, have been generally
quite steady. Wheat was weak early
on increased supplies atloat, enlarged
receipts at the northwest and techni-
cal market conditions favorng a de-
cline, but strengthened later on con-
tinued poor crop reports from abroad,
fairly large clearances, although not
equal to last week and general conf
dence in present or better prices being
maintained. Corn has sympathized
largely with wheat, though weaken
ing on its own account on better
crop advices from the states east OF
the Mississippi, where timely rains
have fallen. Net changes for the
week are slight. Some hog products,
particularly lard, have sympathized
with the strength Of corn.
Iron and steel show little change,
accessions to the strikers in the case
of the leading tube works of the
country having been balanced by the
reopening of stuck mills in the
pittsburg district. Chicago iron and
steel iobbers are reported besieged
by BUYERS. Some western consumers
NAV have to shut down if supplies
are not shortly forthcoming.
Business troubles show no increase,
the failures for the week numbering
1862, as against 17s last week, 1875 in
this week year ago, l54 in 1899, III
In 1898 and 210 in 1897.

Oklahoma City, Ok, Aug. 24.-Wil-
liam Favors, the negro held here on
the charge of being connected with
the Pierce City horror, was released
on a writ of habeas corpus yesterday
afternoon, but Immediately rearrest-
ed by the sheriff of this county as a
fugitive from justice. A telegram was
received here from the governor of
Missouri stating that the requisition
papers for Favors was on the way
here. Favors will be held pending
the decision of Gov. jenkins in regard
to the requisition. 1t is believed here

GUESSING CONTESTS.
The Attorney General Renders an Opinios
~ to Whether Newspaper Has Vio'
lated the Postal Law.

Washington, Aug. "a. = Attorney
General Knox has rendered to the
postmaster general an opinion on
whether a certain westerly daily pa
per has violated the law prohibiting
the use of the mails fer advertising
lotteries, gift concerts and similar en-
terprises. The paper some time ago
inaugurated guessing contest, adj
vertising that it would give $500
prizes, aggregating $4,000 in value,
to persons making the nearest esti-
mates of the number of paid admis-
sions to the Pan-American exposition
at buffalo from the day of opening
to the day of closing.
The attorney general says that un-
less plainly forbidden by law the
remedy is with congress and not with
the department. He says the con-
testants must go into careful inquiry
as to the facts about the exposition,
public interest and attendance to
date and continues as follows: "Such
estimates, therefore, while necessarily
dependent in many respects upon
chance, are likewise affected by the
intelligent calculations of thought
full observer. A fair construction OF
the words dependent upon lot or
chance excludes estimates which are
based upon mental calculations, even
though the factors, which enter into
such calculations may be uncertain
and matters Of conjecture. The
drawing of lot or the throw OF the
dice are purely dependent upon
chance, for no mental operation can
aid in estimating the result. As penal
statutes must be construed strictly,
am unable to reach the conclusion
that the giving of prizes as a reward
for superior intelligence in estimates,
where the human intellect is exercised
in making such estimates, is within
the purview of the statute, and the
conclusion cannot be affected by the
demoralizing tendencies to which you
refer"

The excessive simplicity of many Of
the dinner gowns has been much criti-
cised, but especially for young women
the fashion is such n dainty one that
its popularity is assured for some
time. A charming gown of this de-
scription is a very sheer Grape made
over white satin. with two flounces
trimmed with lace and insertion. The
waist is of lace and insertion, with
pufiings of the Grape around the top
OF the waist. \ belt and sash of panne

but an exceedingly expensive one, is
made of lace and net. with bands of
satin folds on the underskirt. The

Business Women.

A few decades ago a woman was os-
tracized and ridiculed for making any
effort toward self-support. Now she
is encouraged to make her own living,
and is respected for the endeavor. Her
energy, executive ability and talents
are recognized everywhere, and soci-
ETY. no longer looks scornfully at a
bread winner OF its own class.
All honor to the business women Of
old, who, by breaking down the bar
riers Of conventionality, made possible
this Golden Age! 1t is to them we
owe debt Of gratitude for giving US
the opportunity to make business
career as honorable vocation as that
OF our fathers and brothers.
Courage. you women who dread the
first step toward self-support Enter
the business world with confidence,
and have no fear OF adverse criticism.
Your example will help other clever
and capable women, who are eager to
work, but too timid to make the effort.

Flowers for Tempers.

1t is told of the Princess Royal OF
England, now the Dowager Empress
of Germany, that she had very hasty
temper when she was little girl.
Quick, hot words came readily TO her
lips, and once she was known TO speak
angrily TO her gentle, indulgent father
when he refused her some trihing
pleasure. Queen Victoria, always a
wise and kind mother, did not punish
her little daughter for these outbursts
of temper, but one day gave her little
garden for her very own, and advised,
when anger got the best OF her ludg-
ment, that she go out to the garden
and work for a few moments. The
plan acted like charm, and very
few moments among the smiling faces
Of her flower friends brought the little
Princess, ashamed and repentent, to
beg for forgiveness.
The habit thus formed in childhood
has never been broken, and during the
entire life OF this, the oldest child of
the English Queen, flowers have held
a Highway, the highest-place in
her regard. When affairs worry or
annoy her, as they will worry and an
noy even expresses, she always found
a few moments in which she could slip
out among her blossoms, and the silent
companionship OF the little pausy faces.
the fragrant rose-buds and the modest
violets seemed to give her strength to
cope with any difficulty, and wisdom to
solve any puzzle. Philadelphia Times.

She taught him things from books that he had

And with woman's patience ground the worth

She turned him from stupid clown TO one
whose mien was proud,
She planted in his heart the wish TO rise above
the crowd;
She planned the things he undertook, she urged
him on TO try,
She gave him confidence TO look for splendid
things and high,
She bore the children that he loved, and toied
for them and him
And often knelt beside her bed with aching eyes

Tact in the Sick Room.

Sympathy must not be overworked,
nor fail to lend itself to that denial
which is often a real kindness The
temptation to humor a sick friend or
relative in every within is often ire
sistibie. But true tact, however, may
generally find way by which the pa
tient seems to have every indulgence
he desires, yet in truth have nothing
but that which the one in charge de-
sires to give to him. While the will
OF the watcher must always be domi-
nant it should never be so obtrusively;
the patient should be ruled SO gently
that he does not know he is being ruled.
AT times of course, the patient will ask
for something, in such a way that he
cannot be led from the subject or made
To think that after all he does not want
that particular thing. Then direct
"no" must be given him; and quiet,
persistent refusal TO meet unreasonable
and harmful demands will not weaken,
but rather make stronger the tie be-
tween the invalid and the watcher.
