HIS MINETY-THIRD BIRTHDAY.
John Euge Will Celebrate 1t Next
Thursday.

John Euge. who lives on the Lemay
Ferry road. three miles south of St Louis.
has issued invitations to his relatives and
bration of his ninety..third birthday next
Thursday. Since the death of John c. E..
Roswag, last November, Mr.. Euge claims
the distinction of being the Oldest man in
st. Louis County. His appearance, however,
will not sustain his contention. as he does
not look to be older than Go.
Mr.. Euge was born In St. Louis and lived
here all his life. His father came to St.
Louis with Laclede and helped to found the
town. His first work was On the river and
in 1896 he was one of a party that pulled an
old-fashioned keel boat up the Missouri
River to Wyoming. where 1t was loaded
with furs purchased from the Indians and
floated back to st. Louis for the market.
Mr.. Euge has only one child. Mrs A. ].
Shores Of Clayton. He has three srandchil-
dren and seven great-graudchildren The
grandchildren are W. T. Shores and Mrs
Sarah A. Smith of Springfield. Mo-, and
A. ]. Shores. Jr., of MELVILLE His first
wife. whom he married in 1925. was Miss
Schultz. His second wife is still living, She
is eight years younger than Mrs Shores
She was Miss Dolores and married Mr..
Euge when he was G. years old.
In the early history of st. Louis the name
is spelled Huge and pronounced Uge, The
change in the spelling was brought about
by Judge Shores who, when he heard the
name, spelled it Euge, and SO addressed his
sweetheart in letters that he wrote her
She accepted the spelling, and since then
the name has been known as Euge

SHORT TALKS WITH
GUESTS AT THE HOTELS.

The recent failure of a cotton mill at
Charleston has not disheartened the South
ern cotton manufacturers. according to j.
s Davis of Charleston, S. c., who is at
the Planters Hotel.
1.-The mill that failed was operated by
negro labor. This is taken as an evidence
that negro labor cannot profitably be en-
ployed in the cotton mills of the South. II
is all a mistake. The failure of the COM
psny operating the mill was not because or
The negro labor, but by reason of other
things The fact that accommodations for
the laborers could not be found near the
institution was one of them.
Negro labor on the spindles and at other
minor working parts of the cotton mill are
successful The negroes have contributed
no small success to the operation or the
cotton mills. They seem to have knack

South and become expert in time.
THE cotton industry has become per-
manent factor In the State of South Caro-
lima Unless I am mistaken. several large
dry goods houses in St Louis purchase col
ton cloth from these mills outright. We
do not manufacture the high grade of cot
ton goods that is made In the North, but
our mills are rapidly acquiring the Yankee
tricks. 1t will be only short time until
the South will manufacture nearly all the

The more intelligent portion OF every

just what to expect from its use as nerve
and brain strengthener and restorer and
an ideal invigorator for a rundown system.
There Is less hesitation nowadays among
we!l-informed people in attending to the be-
sinnings Of poor health. 1t is well known
that disease is progressive and cumulative,
easy to drive out at the start. but a menace

The zinc and lead crystals are found al

one knows the wonderful resources of those

copper ore in such abundance that several
carloads of 1t have been shipped to refin-

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Springfield, ILL.,, March 29.-The Subdistrict
Conference Of the United Mine Workers Of
America and the operators Of the SPRING
field district Friday decided to make an
other effort to get all OF the coal operators
into the State Association.
The miners insist that. although the op-
orators who are not in the organize tion are
paying the scale. they are not in shape to
settle little differences which arise at the
mines on the same basis that the asso-
citation operators are. When differences
arise at the mines OF the association .oper-
ators they are referred to a commission
named by .he union and the association.
and 1t is the purpose to bring the outside
operators under the jurisdiction of the same
commission Unless they join the associa.
ton 1t is likely that their miners will
strike.
The operators represented in the confer
ence have decided to stand out against any
change in the scale Of the drivers or day
laborers They will insist on the strict en-
rorcement of the scale adopted at Column
bus and ratified at Springfield; and will ask
the miners to support them in their oppO-
sition to additional demands Of the drivers
and laborers. Herman Justi, representing
the operators association. is here to assist
the conferees.
