BEER TO PAY HALF THE WAR TAX

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 19.-The
war revenue tax of Approximate
ely $4,000. 900 on the annual
output of beer is agreeable to
the brewers Of this city, although
this industry already pays year
ly internal revenue tax of $780,
600, 900. The stamp tax on neg
otiable instruments. stocks and
bonds, deeds, bills of ladlng,
pullman car and steamship tick
cts and insurance policies is ex-
pected to yield $4,000, 900 and
the remainder will be raised by
a levy on tobacco, patent medi-
cines, perfumes, cosmetics, the
atre and amusement tickets, etc.
The beer tax will yield a reve-
nue. more than ten times greater
than that Of any other single
commodity.

SOME CAT : BELIEVE NE

The friends of j. K. Evans the
popular assistant cashier of the
Darlington Bank, are requested
to call at the bank and view the
picture of a noble feline of the
male variety. The cat was snap
ped by moonlight while in the act
of rendering another solo for
Elsworth's benefit. When the
picture was exhibited to the en-
ployees of the Bee Office some of
them insisted that 1t was a lion
and others thought possibly it was
a wild cat. 1t looks a little like
a cross between a Oheata and a
mountain hon.

AMELIA L. MARSHALL.
Secretary.

E. H. Johnson, residing at the Mann
house, corner of Wright and Palafox
streets, reported Monday that he had
been relieved of his gold watch and
several other articles, and asked that
the police look up the articles for him.
Yesterday, however, it became known
that the goods had been recovered and
that no further steps toward prose-
cutting alleged guilty parties would be
taken. or were desired.
When he reported the matter first
he gave the name of a party whom
he suspected, and the latter would
likely have been arrested had not the
articles turned up mysteriously, yet
safely.

the block-laying force left the job,

and turn it over to the city. Com
missioner Johnson and City Engineer
Thornton have been almost constantly
on the scene since work began, and
there will be no trouble in having the
work accepted, since every part of ii
was done under the supervision of the
officials named.
Mr.. Gerkin was given the contract
for constructing sidewalks and cross
walks at the meeting of the commits
sioners a few days since. In the cross
walk construction, the city will do
whatever excavating and filling which
will be necessary, but for the same
work in the sidewalk construction the
property owner will pay for it.

What Command of

1.-THE command OF the sea" is ar
expression that has been so long ia
miliar that we are surprised to realize
that we have had an entirely indefinite
comprehension of how this power
would be applied in case of necessity
and how it would operate. AS mat
ter OF fact, there are many ways in
which such domination can make it
self effective, and in the present hos
tile operations it has come as COM
plete blockade of the German empires
ports and fleet, in spite of the actually
formidable power of the latter. What
this means to Germany, and the vital
is told in a recent issue of Scientific
American.
In the first place, it has resulted
in the complete disappearance from
all the seven seas of her vast mer-
chant marines such Of her ships as
escaped capture having fled to neutral
ports or to her own protected bases
on the North sea and the Baltic. Her
colonial possessions, in the acquisi-
ton and upbuilding of which she has
expended so much energy and treasure,
being absolutely cut off from any
military or naval assistance, have
passed one by one to the enemy. Her
warships on foreign stations, after a
series of exploits in commerce destroy
ing and engagements with the enemy,
Of he Iorfc
chapters in the history Of her navy,
are being gradually sunk or driven
into neutral ports. Finally, her over
sea trade, except through a few neu-
trail ports, has ceased to exist.
But it is not in these respects that
the silent victory of the war is max
ing It's pressure most lleenly felt in
this Iife-and- death struggle of the
great German Empire. 1t is in its
hearing upon the military operations |
in France and Belgium that the Brit !

in the whole situation.
Had the conditions been reversed;
had the German fleet been superior

to defeat the British and French in
a series Of decisive engagements, not

could have been sent to the western
