ST. LOUIS PARSON
SOLOMON'S RIVAL

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 11.-"Oh, let me
kiss those rosy lips of thine; oh, let
me see ahose sparkling eyes Of
thine"
SO run two lines in a song lust
published by the Rev. DR.. Pedro II
gen, pastor Of the Holy Ghost Evan
gelical Lutheran Church here, music
by Lene Fleming.
The vulgar call the song "hot
stuff" and say that with a guitar ac-
compartment It will keep a parlor
warmer than would a ton of coal. The
Rev. DR.. Ilgen, being asked whence
he drew his inspiration only smiled
and said:
"The songs of Solomon have love
for their topic. do not think it ex-
traordinary that I should write a
love song"
The clergyman's perfervid muse
goes on:
oh, let me see those sparkling eyes
of thine;
They are like stars Of heaven,
yonder-bright
And then, thou star, look deeply into
mine;
All there is light, all there is light.
Oh, let me kiss those rosy lips OF
thine,
Those sweet lips. once sweetly kissed
by mine
call them ours.
The reverend doctor threatens to
write some more songs.

MEAT TAKES
ANOTHER JUMP
Goes Up From One to One and
0ne-haIf Cents a
Hundred

Local housekeepers are up in arms
over the raising Of the price of meats
of various descriptions, and the
butchers are wondering what the
limit will be and when 1t will be
reached. The wholesale price of
meats has raised considerably during
the past ten days. according to the
local dealers.
The price of beef has gone up 81 to
$3.50 a 100 pounds for the better
grades on the hoof. Pork has gone
up a half cent a pound.
This morning a wholesale dealer
stated that while the people may pay
more for their beef they are get
ting a better grade. This raise, he
added, is due to the increased cost
of the cattle on the hoof, there be-
ing practically no intermediates and
hence the increase.
According to reports from New
York the priceof meats has raised con-
siderably and there is a notice of a
further one due next week.

introduce in the House a resolution
proposing a wide comprehension Of
industrial conditions with a view 60
altering the Sherman law and possi-
bly, conforming to the antitrust COM

In a question to the steel magnate,
Littleton indicated his position.
Il have been advised that an at
tempt will be made shortly to inaugu-
rate a thorough investigation of the
industrial future situation in Ameri-

be called in, representatives of capi-

a broad way the Industrial problems
of the age What do you think of
that scheme?"
Perkins was enthusiastic.
Best News For a Long Time.
That's the best news I've heard in
a long time" he said with satisfaction.
The price paid by the steel trust for
the control of the T. c. l. Company was
the first point on which Perkins was
questioned when he resumed the stand
today for the fourth successive day OF
cross-examination. Bartlett wanted to
know if the Tennessee stock was not
worth more than the steel trust sec
ond mortgage bonds given in exchange
NO the bonds were more valuable by
a great DEAL" said Perkins. "The
trade was made at best terms posi-
BILE in the situation"
Perkins declared that some three
years before the absorption, the steel
trust had declined to accept a sug-
4 gestion that it buy T. G. & /.
did the observance Of the law en-
ter into that refusal?" asked Stanley
mot at all. 1t was the settled policy
of the steel corporation not to extend

Bartlett asked that if the steel trusi
officials had consulted lawyers priol
to sending Gary and Frick to Wash

"but one of our greatest troubles Is
that we cannot find lawyers who are
