1 COLONEL GREEN HAS B,Z42PR0P0SALS ; That Number Received From . American Girls, and 1,331 From Foreigners. i . . NEW YORK, Sept. 15. If Col. Edward H. Green, son and heir to the

major part of hi good mother Hetty's many millions, were not an essential monogamist In principal he might find It easier to dig his way from tinder something like six thousand proposals of marriage. The last total made by Qpl. Green's secretary had It 6,242, and, while the American girls were till very much on the job of landing the Texas Croesus, their foreign sisters were represented by not fewer than 1,331 offers to love him. That England has a money-hunting, dollar-searching, contingent unknown until now to Americans is shown by the deluge of proposals to accept Colonel Green which every mail carries out of that tight little isle. A woman of eemlng breeding in Hampstead Road, London, evidently caring nothing that Colonel Astor got an awful drubbing because at 46 he wedded a girl under 20, assures Colonel Green that he may have either of her two daughters, one fair, one very dark, both very much admired, each ready to prove that she can love him regardless of bis money. The same mall brings a queer letter from a parlor maid who assures him she quite appreciates how hard It was for him to earn his money and that she will take mighty good care of It. She asks God to bless the colonel and "your dead mother," and begs him not to let the fact that he Is rich stand in the way. She will not mind It a bit. "I have never been with a young man yet. 1 know you would love me. But you better come over and see me," she writes. There is no record yet that the colonel has booked passage. From the Broadway, WaltharaOreen, England, a young lady writes that she Is no merry widow, but is unkissed at 22. "I am a very clever pianist and can also sing very well," she adds, "and by gentlemen admirers are considered extremely good looking. I am of a very affectionate nature and I can love very quickly. I am a shorthand typist." A widow, who ought to realize her chances are very small In her time of life, writes from Faulkner Road, Newport, England: , "I was left a widow a little over three years ago with a daughter 15 years old. I am 46, medium height and build, fair skin and very dark hair and eyes, and good appearance. I don't want you to think I am a money hunter, as that will not gain love and happiness. . t 'Since my husband's death I have bad three offers of marriage, one an old bachelor of 69' with a good fortune, another a widower with three children, some fortune, and the other his age only 32. I want some one about my own age, and one thing, I had made up my mind that I should remain a widow four years." SATURDAY SPECIAL ' AT THE FLOWER 8HOP.

Take Advantage of a Richmond Citizen's Experience Before It's Too Late. When the back begins to ache. Don't wait until backache becomes chronic; Till sericus kidney troubles develop; Till urinary troubles destroy night's rest. . Profit by a Richmond 'citizen's experience. Enoch Cromer, 309 X. Fourteenth street, Richmond, Ind., says: "I have no need of Doan's Kidney Pills since they cured me of kidney trouble in 19')6. At that time I gave a statement for publication, recommending this remedy and I do not wish to withdraw anything from that testimonial. Railroading Is very hard on the kidneys and my case was no exception to the rule, as I suffered from kidney complaint for some time. The passages of the kidney secretions were irregular and painful and I often felt dizzy and weak. Being advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured a box at A. G. Luken A Co's Drug Store and their use brought prompt relief. In a short time I was entirely free from kidney trouble and since then, whenever I have heard anyone complaining of backache, I have advised a trial of Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers.

"Peck's Bad Boy" is to be presented at the Gennett by the best company which has ever been assembled for the purpose. In the title role there will appear Patrick Halpin, who is conceded to be one of the best impersonators of juvenile characters now before the public. In leading support of the Bad Boy will be Miss Zelda Taylor, appearing as Minnie, the Bad Boy's girl. Other people 'prominent in the cast will be A. Chester Taylor, Miss Faustina, James Marron, William Sears and John Marron. "Peck's Bad Boy," every attendant at the theater will remember, recounts the adventures of a typical American lad whose mischevious pranks on every person with whom he comes in contact, keeps him in a "peck of trouble." The play is in three acts and in each of the acts there are introduced a number of specialties. "Seven Days." "Seven Days" that Messrs. Wagenhals and Kemper will present, at the Gennett theater, Friday September 22, is an up-to-the-minute comedy dealing with New York's smart, set. It is class all the way through. Fashionable folks are quarantined in a house in which a policeman and a burglar are also trapped. There is one week of uproarious fun that starts in the drawing room of a Riverside Drive house, descends to the kitchen and goes up to the roof, and is a laugh from start to finish. The New York Evening Telegram said in its review of this comedy: "Gales of laughter swept over the Astor last night at the first performance of 'Seven Days,' and when the audience left the theater their faces were shining with smiles, and their hearts were big with gratitude to Mary Roberts Rinehart and Avery Hop wood who wrote the sparkling comedy. See 'Seven Days' and laugh.' Players who appeared in the piece at the Astor theater where it has run into its second year, will act it here, and the production will be exactly the same as the one on Broadway. Of all the theatrical announcements of the season that of "Seven Days" will surely create the greatest interest, for this is the leading comedy hit of twenty years. At the Murray. Have you seen that bill at the Murray this week? Well, if not, it is certainly well worth your time to go. Better make it a point of going today to see it. Adair and Dahn open the show with a daring wire act. This act for several seasons was one of the stellar attractions with the Ringling Bros, famous attractions. They sing, dance, wine and dine on the wire, finishing with the most daring of all wire tricks the barrel jumping stunt. Mabelle Milton is the possessor of a beautiful contralto voice. Her songs are chose to please the people and she succeeds most admirably. Here character changes are very good and have been much appreciated during her engagement. The Brinkley'8, a colored team, have an act composed of singing, dancing and talking. To say that they are funny is putting it mildly as they possess all of the Tim and go peculiar to their race. ' Boutin and Tillson are having a very interesting week and have now another member to their act, the young lady who accepted the banner to sing on the stage In this act on Monday night has put in two days of hard rehearsing and on last Wednesday night made her appearance with the act. Her singingNof "The Last Rose of Summer," the pipe organ accompaniment which closes the act with very pretty electric effects, brought forth a great deal of applause last night and her addition to the act makes it all the more pretentious. The young lady not desirous of giving her own name has chosen the name of Francesca Parker as her stage name.

MUCH MONEY HEEDED FOR BALLOON RACE Will Take $6,000 to Insure Success of International Event.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 15. Six thousand dollars is needed to insure the success of tile international balloon race for the James Gordon Bennett trophy, which will start from Kansas City, October 5. One hundred thousand persons are expected to view the spectacle here and many men from different European countries have signified their intention of being here then. The $6,000 is needed to fence the grounds, construct the grandstands, prepare the million and a half cubic feet of gas, that the twelve baloons will require, and pay the three prizes, aggregating $3,000, that have been offered by the club in accordance with the international aeronautical rules. Start a Campaign By Letter. A meeting of the club directors was held at Convention Hall yesterday afternoon to discuss the feasibility of conducting a public campaign for the money. It was decided not to send out canvassers, but to try to obtain the money by a letter campaign. Already about $4,000 has been given the club for use at the race, and as little of that was solicited it is evident that the public recognizes the advertising value Kansas City will derive from the race. The letters will be mailed today. "With the amount we will receive from the gates I am positive that $6,000 will tide us over," George M. Myers, president of the Kansas City Aero club, said. "It should be forthcoming readily when it is understood what an advertising feature the race will be. Its results will be known all over the country. In Europe it is being watched with much interest and the various foreign governments are sending their special representatives to Kansas City for it. Should any surplus be left after the race, it will remain in the treasury of the club to be used for something to benefit Kansas City." Enter a "Mythology Sharks Yesterday morning a "mythology shark" wandered into Mr. Myers' office and announced that he wanted to write the ritual for the christening of the balloon Kansas City II. Pallas Athene will do the work, and it is pro posed to have a grand procession to the field and christen the balloon a few moments before the race starts. "Got a good, sharp pencil?" Mr. My ers queried. "Because if you haven't you won't be able to write us as good a one as we want." c , - "Yep, I'll do it for you." The re ply, was cheery. Then Mr. Myers outlined to him that the services should last fifteen or twenty minutes, that all the old gods and goddesses should be worked in and that Pallas Athene with her four hundred attendants must have a few songs to sing and a few well wishes for the success of the ballon in its endeavor to lift the Lahm cup that afternoon. HE WANTS $2,000 FOR WRONG TOOTH CHICAGO, Sept. 15. William Merkel, 14 years old, 215 Locust street, places a value of $2,000 on a tooth speech has been impaired." several weeks ago. The price of the tooth was made known yesterday when suit for that amount was filed in the circuit court against the National Medical university. The suit was filed by Henry Merkel, father of the boy. Some time ago, according to Attorney F. S. Webster, the boy had a tooth extracted at the university. "At the time the tooth was extracted the dentist told my client that it was his first tooth," said Attorney Webster. "Later it was learned that it was he boy's second tooth, and because of the extraction the boy's speech has been impaider."

CHORUS JIRL BRIDE Alarmed Over Continued Absence of Husband. NEW YORK, Sept. 15 Mrs. Louis Marshall Ream, who was Eleanor Pendleton of the chorus of "The Belle of Mayfair," and is now the daughter-in-law of Norman B. Ream, the multimillionaire, is alone in the parlor of her little flat at 206 West Fifty-third street wondering what has become of her young husband. The bride has waited since last Fri day for him to come back from his father's country home at Thompson, Conn., and now she says she has about reached the limit of her patience. There is much mystery about the continued absence of the son of the millionaire, who left his chorus girl bride three days ago to ask forgive ness for his unexpected marriage of September 1. This mysterious silence has led to the impression that the expected forgiveness has not been forth coming. But where is the bridegroom? This is a question that Mrs. Eleanor Pendleton Ream would like to have answered. "He is not here," said the lonely bride today at her home. "I don't know when he will be here, and I haven't heard from him. That's all there is to be said." Mrs. Eleanor Pendleton Ream has had six trunks packed ready for a prospective moving to the Hotel Gotham after the hoped-for forgiveness arrived along with the now missing husband. Young Ream is supposed to be still at Thompson. His father is there, silent. The family lawyer who was called there for the week-end has not returned. LOOKING AND SEEING.

PANIC IS CREATED 1(1 CORPORATIONS 2.000 Indiana Concerns Are Aroused Over Washington Announcement.

(Palladium Special) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 14. Notices sent out recently from the internal revenue department at Washington warning Indiana corporations which have failed to make returns on time of their liability for a penalty of from 15.000 to 110,000 have created a panic among the officials of more than 2,000 corporations. The notices were dated Sept. 5. The returns are required under the provisions of the special excise tax law passed August 5, 1909. All corporations, joint stock companies, associations and insurance companies are required by the act to make a return showing their annual net profits before March 1, of each year. The law requires the payment of 1 per cent excise tax on net profits above 15,000. The corporations which failed to report, for the most part, were those which did not make a profit of $5,000 and which were not required to pay any tax. But their failure to make a return subjects them to the same penalty as though their returns had been fraudulent. The notices sent out September 5, contain an offer to compromise and it has been stated from a reliable source that the district revenue officials have received notices that no sum less than $10 is to be accepted in a compromise. This Is taken to mean that the sum of $10 will be accepted in all cases. Elam H. Neal, revenue collector for Indiana, would not confirm the report that his office had received a private communication but it is known positively that certain persons representing derelicit corporations have been told to send In $10 and all would be well. Stricken with sudden fear, some of the smaller companies subject to the provisions of the excise tax law, hastened to send in $50, $100, $1S0 and as much as $200 in some instances, depending upon how much they were Stubborn Colds May Lead to Consumption Did you ever have a cold that would not Jet go; a cough that persisted, that prevented sleep, and made waking hours miserable? Eckman's Alterative is the proper remedy in such cases. Perhaps some simple medicine may be effective where it is only a tickling in the throat; but when your chest is sore and simple remedies don't answer then take Eckman's Alterative. Neglect often leads to more serious trouble; a case in point follows: . 718 Cherry St.. Phlla.. Pa. "Gentlemen: In July 1905. I first noticed the conditions that showed I had Consumption. llost . .weight rapidly; had a hollow cough, hemorrhages and very severe night sweats. My brother recommended Kckman's Alterative. In the Fall of 1905 I began to take it. At this time I am perfectly well and robust. My appetite Is good and my weight has increased from 110 to 140 pounds. Not a trace of my old trouble remains. I will gladly express the merits of this medicine to anyone." (Signed) M. It. GERHARDT.

frightened by the official warnings. Since sending in the money in payment of the penalties, they have learned that $10 would have been just as acceptable and now the officers are denouncing the law in bitter terms and excoriating the officials at Washington, charged with its enforcement. The excise law was passed in 1909 but there was no move to collect the penalties under the act last year and the corporation officials naturally were derelict this year. The notices this year were sent out in a manila envelope and looked more like a patent medicine advertisement than an official communication.

This clause is held to be unjust by the critics of the law. who contend that the penalties should differ widely in degree. The law in question imposing a tax on corporations was passed .by congress as a sop for its failure to pass an increase tax law to which Presi-. dent Taft and other Republicans of national reputations were pledged. The act is a part of the discredited Payne-Aldrich law, denounced ss an iniquitous measure by the whole country, and partially pronounced indefen sible by President Taft. himself.
