Mrs. Barbara Bidlingmeyer, who claims to

ceremonies and has ever since styled her

and visited the county seat.
Mrs. B~idlingneyer expected to heck brass
bands and other evidences of festivity when
she reached Clayton. and was rather sur
prised when she stepped from a Suburban
car TO find everything serene.
Guess the speechmaking is going on"
she muttered. "Ill hurry or 1 will be late"
When she reached the Courthouse she re-
ceived another shock. for the only speech
making she heard was the pleading of an
attorney in court for $50 to defend a divorce

ST. LOUIS APPEARS
FREE FROM CROOKS
According to Police No Pockets
Have Been Picked in Three
Weeks.
DESMOND is WELL PLEASED.
Chief Says City Now Has Better
System of Police Protec-
ton Than Ever
Before.

Facts gathered by Chief Of Detectives
William Desmond show that st. Louis has
beaten all records for police protection of
public crowds from pickpockets.
Three weeks of carnival, during which
some of the largest gatherings in the his
tory OF the United States have taken place,
closed last night with the last perform
ance Of Ringling's circus, and during all
this time. SO far as the police know. there
has not been q pocket picked within the
boundaries Of the city.
Several arrests OF suspicious characters
were made, but there have been no COM
plants. John o'LAughlin was arrested be-
cause 1t was thought he attempted to rob
a street-car passenger. A citizen reported
the loss OF a gold ring. but investigation
developed that It was not stolen
The protection was furnished by eight
special men. twelve detectives from out Of
town; tWenty,tiye extra pa.rolmsn in e civil :
force of twenty-five men.
There have been two large cirouses at
tracing thousands OF people. three parades
parallellng the Washington pageants which
ington, two Wild West and cowboy shows.
the Derby at the race track, the races of
every day and the ball games and theaters.
mo city in the United States has yet
claimed absolute immunity. from pickpock-
cts on occasions Of the kind which have
Desmond last night. II am actually sur.
prised at the marvellous facts. Not a pocket
picked during the Dedication parades; not a
highway theft. among all the. swarms at
the shows n not a reported confidence
robbery during all the endless carnival.
I am fiattered.
AN instance which proves that St. Louis
is almost devoid Of the active pickpocket
occurred at the race track several days
ago. A visiting detective. here to assist in
catching the p~ickpockets.' was utterly as
tonished at the manner in which a woman
carelessiy sauntered among the crowd with
hundreds Of dollars worth Of diamonds ex-
posed. He declared that in his city those
jewels would be nipped in a hurry"

Official Board of Nj. f. Church,
South, Takes Important Step
After Long Deliberation.
EFFORT TO BE SYSTEMATIC.
Secretaries to Investigate Condi'
tons, Employ Men and Begin
Labors. Especially Among
Working Glasses.

The Board of Missions of NJ. f. Church,
South. at its final session yesterday morn
ing, decided to establish at once a regular
~ organized system of city missions.
Doctor w. r. Lambuth. the secretary OF
the board, has been urging this step FOR
almost six years. and for the last several
years 1t mas occasioned much discussion at
the annual meetings.
1t is thought that the time has now come
for the beginning Of the work, and the sec
%retaries of the board were instructed 10
inaugGrate the system.
They Will especially investigate the con-
ditions obtaining among the working classes
and will undertake to care for those whom
the regular methods of the church do not
reach. The. secretaries were further in
structed 10 take steps toward the selection
and training OF men TO undertake the work.
Boards of city missions will be established
in all large cities. They will cooperate.
and in many instances will be the same as
the already organized City Missions and
Church Extension Societies. The board will
have supervision of the work in all places,
but the support of the persons who under
take 1t will be local. in many instances be-
Ing. taken from the conference collections.
The organized movement for the evanGel-
iZation of the unreached classeSsof the city,
factory. mining and milling districts is re-
garded as most significant. The Northern
Methodist Church has begun the work in
a systematic way. and has had great sue
cess.
In the afternoon the members of the board
and the bishops attended a reception at
boulevard.
Last night the Reverend w. r. Cox of
Mexico. and Doctor j. NJ. Lander of Brazil,
delivered missionary addresses at st. Johns
