GIRLS FOREHEAD is
CRUSHED BY FALL
Parents Who Live in East st.
Louis Arrived Here Early This
Morning for Funeral.

While playing on the porch at the
home of her grandparents on Water
street yesterday afternoon, Helen Far
rar Young, a colored girl, four years
old, lost her balance and fell to the
granitoid sidewalk, a distance of about
20 feet. The child was SO badly in
jured that she expired two hours later.
her entire forehead was crushed by
the force of the fall.
The little girl had been kept at the
home of her grandparents, Albert and
Nancy Farrar, for the. past two
months. The parents of the girl, FL
mer and Flora Young, have been liv-
ing in East St. Louis for several
months, but during the race riots in
that city, the girl was brought to the
Cape by her grandmother.
When the latter learned Of the &C
cident she became hysterical and faint
ed. She was revived by stimulants.
Owing to the fact that she has been
suffering from a heart attack for sew
eral weeks, the physician who was
called to treat the injured girl, feared
the shock might cost the grand
mothers life. She was in a serious
condition last night. Farrar has been
janitor in the Elks' Building for ten
years.
The funeral of the little girl will be
held Thursday afternoon at Paramount
Cemetery, under the direction Of the
Brinkopf Undertaking Co. The parents
arrived early this morning for the
funeral.
Harry and George Blore, whose sign
painting shop adjoins the Farrar
home, were the only witnesses to the
accident. They were standing in front
of their shop when they saw the child
drop to the sidewalk. They said the
child attempted to rise after hitting
the sidewalk, but fell backwards, the
blood pouring out both nostrils of the
little girl. They carried her inside
and called a physician.

MISS CAIRNS won
BY A ST.LOUISAN
Pretty Cape Society Belle Be.
comes Bride of James H.
Stubblefield.

Miss Phyllis Cairns, the pretty
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Jack Cairns
of this city, was married in st. Louis
at noon yesterday to James H. Stub
blefield, a well-known young business
man of that city. Her aunt and uncle,
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles H. Overstolz,
took the place of Mr.. and Mrs. Cairns.
who were compelled to be in Sikeston
yesterday.
Just before the newlyweds departed
for their honeymoon in the East. last
evening, they sent a telegram to her
parents, in reply to a message of con-
gratulations and well wishes sent bv
Mr.. and Mrs. Cairns from Sikeston.
The fact that Miss Cairns and Mr..
Stubblefeld were engaged has been
known by her close friends for several
months, but the date of the wedding
was kept from all, except the imme
date members of the two families.
The couple leased an apartment in
st. Louis several weeks ago, and for
the past two weeks Mr.. Stubblefield
has been furnishing it according to
the wishes Of the bride. She visited
the city frequently to see that it was
being arranged just as she wished it
to be.
They will be in the East for two or
three weeks, visiting the seacoast
cities and probably return home by the
way of the northern lakes. Imme-
diately upon their return they will 20
to housekeeping in their new apart
ment.
The bride is one of Cape Girardeau's
most popular girls and she is often
termed the city's prettiest. She met
her husband several years ago while
she was guest of relatives in Chi
cago.
Mr.. Stubblefield is influential in st.
Louis and is wealthy.

FLOUR SOLD AT $50
A CWT in RUSSIA
d. Samuels Receives Letter from
Mother Telling of High Cost
in Russia.

A brief sketch of the conditions in
Russia, especially of the enormous
cost Of living, is given in letter Al.
Samuels, the shoe merchant on Main
street, received several days ago from
his mother, who lives in a small village
near Warsaw. The letter was mailed
two months ago, but did not arrive
until the earlier part of the week.
Flour, wheat, meat, clothing and shoes
are so high that they can not be pur-
chased any more by the working class,
the letter says.
Wheat -four is now sold at $50 hum
}dred pounds; rye -four at the time of
the writing of the letter was sold at
$40 a hundred pounds. A pair of shoes
cost $40; other clothing. Especially
wooden goods, are so high that they
are not placed on the market any
more, the letter states.
In view of the fact that clothing and
other necessaries were sold far cheap
er in Europe than in the United
States, the cost of living in Europe
has increased about ten times during
the time of the war.
The letter informs Mr.. Samuels that
business has almost been wiped out.
Very little action is found on the mar
kets. The business streets in War
saw, one of the largest cities in Rus
STA, resemble the streets Of a small
village. Traffic has almost ceased in
that city.
The letter had been passed by the
censor. Many paragraphs in the mes
sage were stricken out in order to pre-
vent anything pertaining to the do
nestle disorder in Russia to be made
public in other countries. Mrs. SAM
uels wrote her son, she could tell him
many sad and disheartening stories, |
but she would desist from doing 80
because she knew the censor would not |
let the letter pass, and feared the
whole letter would be destroyed.
Mr.. Samuels told reporter for The
Tribune last night, he had sent his

mother some money few months ago.
The letter accompanying the money
order did not arrive. All his mother
received was the envelope containing
the order for the money.
The letter leaves the inference that
tn people are longing for peace. Para
graphs evidently pertaining to that
subject had been cancelled, however.
Several other sections, the contents of
which could not be determined, Were
stricken out, Mr.. Sanruels said.
