Jack Thurston gazed curiously across
the little table at the young woman
that Carl, the presiding genius of the
Skye Terrier. with muttered apology,
had seated opposite him. Time was
when the Skye Terrier could afford a
table to every guest. Now 1t was diff
cult to get even seat.
1t was the first time that Thurston
had ever seen a really pretty woman at
the Terrier. 1t was n novelty. His
soup grew cold as he watched and ad-
mired. She was clearly timid, but bore
herself so we'll that even with the Ii
cense afforded by the supposed bo-
hemian tendencies of the place she was
well on toward the quarter section of
ice cream and he had lit his third
cigarette before he spoke.
She regarded him with absolute ter
ror for moment when he made some
trivial remark. Tipping the ashes from
his cigarette as he did so to cover his
own confusion, but Thurston had n
face to inspire confidence, and falling

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly falling to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable, Sci.
ence has proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and, therefore, requires constitutional
treatment. Hairs Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred

Russia to Pay Damages for Seizure
of Sealing Vessels and I'm
prisonment of Crews.
DISPUTE HAS BEEN LENGTHY
Arbitration Is the Result of Agree
ment Made in 1900, and In
terest Is to Be Paid
on Sums Allowed.

The Hague, Nov. 29.-Professor Asser. the
Dutch jurist, who has been arbitrating the
| claims of American sealers for the seizure
of their vessels by the Russian Government
about ten years ago, has delivered MS
awaId In favor of the United States.
HI appraises the damages in the case or
the American schooner c. ii. Nhlte at
$32. AZ; in the case of the James Hamilton
Lewis at SIS, SIS. the Kate and Anna at S,-
4SS, and the Cape Horn Pigeon, $3.50.
Professor Asser delivered his judgment in
the Arbitration Court in the presence of the
representatives of the United States and or
Russia and others. including the Foreign
Minister of the Netherlands, Doctor Van
Lyndenau.
In giving his reasons for the award Pro-
fessor Asser held that the schooner {. II.
White was seized outside Russian terri
torial waters and that the Russian conten-
ton that a warship Of one nation was en-
titled to pursue beyond the boundaries OF
its territorial seas a vessel guilty OF illegal
action within these waters was ~untenabie.
LIMIT OF JURISDICTION.
The arbitrator declared that the jurisdic-
ton of the state could not extend beyond
its territorial waters except by special
treaty. The seizure and confiscation OF the

governed by the same decision. While IN the
case of the Cape Horn Pigeon, Professor
Asser. in fixing the damage or $SS,.oo ana
the interest at 8 per cent, held that the gen
eral principle that damages should inciude
the prospective profits of which the victim
had been deprived applied equally to inter-
In the case of the Kate and Anna the ar
bitrator decided that the captain could
nave continued seal hunting, and that
therefore Russia was not responsible Tor
the prospective prohts. Both the James
Hamilton Lewis and Kate and Anna re-
ceive q per cent interest on the amount
awarded.
The dispute was the subject Of protracted
negotiations. resulting in an agreement in
1905 between Count Lamsdorff. acting Min
lister of Foreign Affairs of Russia. and Her
bert H. D.. Pierce, United States Charge
d'Affaires at st. Petersburg, designating
Professor Asser, a member OF the Council
of State of the Netherlands, an arbitrator.
Professor Asser decided June 30, Log, that
the average annual catch should fo,m the
basis on which the damages should be
awarded. which was exactly the contention
advanced by Mr.. Pierce, who was the ad-
vocate for the United States Government
The decision carried with 1t the opinion that
Russia must pay damages and only left for
further argument the sum due In each case.

The meeting was called by Moses Fraley.
president of the United Jewish Charities. at
the request Of citizens, whose attentions
were attracted by the many beggars on the
downtown streets. The st. Vincent de Paul
Society and the Provident Association were
represented at the meeting.
Those present were William II. McClain.
general manager of the Provident Associa-
ton; Michael Cooke and William Burg,
representing the association; ]. J. Mauntel
representing the st. Vincent de Paul So
ciety; Secretary McConkey, representing
Mayor Wells and the city. and Moses Fra
ley, in behalf of the United Jewish Chart-
ties.
The purposes of the meeting, as set forth
in the remarks OF the chairman, were the
relief of the city from indiscriminate beg
ging. These beggars. 1t was stated. are IN
as in the case Of the cripple appealing to
persons for money. The case Of children
who are out at night standing In front or
the theaters and restaurants was also
touched upon. This is an evil which. 1t was
the unanimous sense of the meeting, must
be broken UP. The back-door beggar who
seeks q meal or some old clothes. and who,
II he gets a good chance may rob q dwell
Ing also came in for q share OF the dis
cussion.
POLICE TO ENFORCE ORDINANCE
It was decided that the Mayor .apd the
Chief of Police be appealed to rigddly en-.
force the ordinance against begging, and
that the Police Department use special
vigilance in roofing out this evil. Ths Ques-
ers was given consideration, and 1t was
stated that against this class nothing was
intended.
Those who sell merchandise honestly and

to fear. provided they are not deformed
N by their misfortunes appear unsightiy.
The Institutions pledged themselves to pro.
vide for those who would thus be deprived
Of their living from public charities, and in
this way no Injustice will be done. These
people will be sought Out, and IT is not their
prosecution, but their protection which Is
the deslderatum.
The citizens of St. Louis will be re-
Quested to inform any of the various So
c%ieties of those who apply to them for as
sistance, and especially of those physically
able to work. 1t was the sense of the
meeting that. considering all the facts that
really those who helped indiscriminate beg
CARS when the societies were here for that
purpose, were acting not only against The
best interests Of the person helped, but
against the entire community.
In connection with the work undertaken
In the city, 1t was decided that all the rail-
roads and steamboat lines be appealed to to
prevent. In SO far a. possible, the bring
ing Of beggars to the city. The co-opera-
ton Of the railroads can do a good deal In
q cause like this, and they will no doubt
take steps in the matter in aiding the three
philanthropic societies.
