OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION
BEGINS TO-DAY.
Ten Thousand Walls Of Munyon's Guaranteed
Rheumatism Cure Will be Glven Away
From the Office Of the ST. Louis
Republic, Beginning at 9
O'Clock This Morning.
LET ALL WHO SUFFER FROM RHEUMA.
TlSM Be ON HAND, TEST THE REM
EDY AND REPORT THE RESULT
TO The EDITOR OF The
ST. LOUIS REPUBLIC.

It is doubtful If any man ever evinced
such confidence in his remedies as Prof.
doubt. He does not ask the public to buy
his medicines on faith. He openly invites
the closest investigation: He says to the
public: Here are remedies which I claim
will relieve and cure certain diseases i
do not ask you to buy them Here they
After 1eu have tested them ar" Send m Sonr
experience to any leading newspaper that
the same may be published to the world"
Prof. Munyon believes that the same
guarantee should go with every vial of
medicine that goes with yard of cloth or
"a pound of sugar. In other words. he says
that when man offers to sell a cure. it
should CURE just as certainly as when a
lady purchases a yard of silk she receives
silk and not cotton. He says there is moth
plugged in as medicine. He does not claim
to be a follower of any particular school
of medicine. He is not pretudieed in :avor
or against any one path He does not
believe that drop of medicine in a bucket
of water is cure-all.
Nor does he believe that person should
swallow large quantities of powerful drugs
to relieve suffering. He has steered clear
OF all fanatcal teachings and has selected
the best in all systems of medicine. That
his position is correct is attesteG by the
enormous sale of his remedies Throughout
the United States. There IA probably not
a town from Maine TO Oregon where the
Munyon remedies are not extensively Used.
Some ten years ago, when The Repuo!ic
made free distribution of his Rkeuna-
tism Cure, more than 1900 people notified
the editor of that paper that they had been
cured of rheumatism by Munyon's Rheu-
! matfsm Cure. Later on a distribution was
made from his Office, 1906 Arch street, Phil
adelphia. Pa, of his Dyspepsia Cure; and
again the papers We're flooded with testi-
monials from people who had cured them
selves by this remedy. The Philadelphia In
Quirer Is now engaged In interviewing
those who have received trial viais of Mum
yons Rheumatism Cure, of which q free
distribution was recently made from the
office OF this paper and some of the most
remarkable testimonials have already been
secured.
The free distribution which taSins this
morning at the Office Of The Republic we
trust will prove that Munyon's rheumatism
other remedies have proven to be. The RE-
public cordially invites all persons who are
afflicted with Rheumatism to secure a wal
OF this remedy and thus aid The Republic
in this Investigation. This is a matter rhat
should interest the whole public and we
earnestly ask the cooperation of all

for Jimmie Burke. Brain, by the way. Ike

The wonderful and limber-jointed Hans
Wagner was about the Southern corridor

what an arm!
Mortician Quinn was among the players
at the Southern. Quinn is now out OF ma
Tor league company, but has a pleasant
berth with Des Moines. Joe has but one
regret As long as he was on the big cir
cult he could spend all, his spare time in
where he could see. learn and procure all
that was new and best in his greweome line.
Quinn spent all his mony on undertaker's
supplies. He prides himself more on his
ability to embalm q corpse than on his
merit as a player. II you told him that

HORSES BURNED IN STALLS.
Stable Fire Attended by Heavy
Loss of Stock.

Twenty four horses. fifteen mules and a
strqyed the stable Of John Boenig at No.
4S15 Mckissock avenue. The total loss is
estimated at $3.50.
The fire, which started from an unknown
cause in the loft OF the two-story struc-
ture, spread so rapidly that rescue of the
animals was overlooked until human lives
were out Of danger. The animals were tied
in their stalls. and SO frightened were they
at the fierce roar and glare Of the fire that
they kept up a frantic stampede and no
one dared risk their lives to 60 into their
stalls.
The fire damaged the residence of Mr..
Boenig $50 before 1t was extinguished. Two
alarms were turned In and firemep of five
companies worked on the scene.

in the church, particularly that rest
less tide of sight-seers, which comes
and goes. distracts the singers, and the
heavy air, which rests over the entire
church, destroys the purity of tone.
This comes partially from the large
number of people in the body of the
church and partly from the heavy
odors of the flowers massed in the
chancel. NV choir is necessarily
packed into the midst of this perfume,
and l have known young women to
faint under its powerful influence.
Then, too, my singers work their
hardest on this day. because we have
an extra service, beginning full
choral service at Z o'clock in the
morning. Very often members of my
choir living at a distance have light
breakfast before coming to the
church, take a second breakfast after
the first service, and even eat their
midday meal at a nearby restaurant.
BY the close of the afternoon service,
they are exhausted.
AT churches which have only two
services the strain is lighter, but [
must reiterate that the average choir
is not heard at it's best on this day.
There is something in the air besides
flowers, perhaps it is general excite
ment, which creeps into the music
and makes it less ecclesiastic than it
should be on this, the most solemn
and beautiful of church festivals
Protecting Practitioners from the
Army of sightseers.
Despite this frank admission of
weakness in Easter music, the average
sightseer will sally forth Easter Sun
day with the mistaken expectation of
hearing something quite out of the
ordinary. There will be thousands of
him struggling for entrance into the
fashionable churches of every denomi-
nation.
To protect parishioners against the
Easter invaders, the former are adj
mitted at a single entrance, where
they file past men connected with the
congregation who know it's mernb ers
by sight The other entrances to the
church remain closed to the general
public until five or ten minutes before
the service is to begin. After this,
regular parishioners must take their
chances with the seething mob which
is risking it's Easter finery to gain an
entrance, for then no pews are re-
served. Other churches issue cards,
which are distributed not only to PAR
ishioners, but to privileged individuals
to whom the courtesy is considered
due.
In the very large edifices in the
larger cities, and especially in New
York, only those well in the front
hear the Easter sermon, for there is a
perpetual stream of sightseers, COM
ing and going. To the individual ac-
customed to life on the European con-
tinent, this floating congregation is
quite a matter of course, but to the
American accustomed to the congre-
cations remaining seated during the
entire service, the peripatetic throng
seems distinctly irreverent.

The contrast between the two men
was remarkable. Mr. Chamberlain
face was alive with eager, intense in
telligence. None of his photographs
does him justice. He looks like a man
who is pure brain, without an ounce
of the animal, and he is much better
looking than he is represented to be.
At first sight he seems not more than
forty-five; but a little scrutiny reveals
that his jet-black hair is dyed and that
in other ways art has repaired the
ravages of time. He is precise about
his personal appearance, and appear
