FRANKS FLIGHT.
Young Mack, the Alleged Seducer
of Katie Kohl, Jumps
the Town.

The case of Frank Mack, the tailor,
charged with the seduction of Katie Kohl,
was set FOR trial at 10 o'clock, In Justice
Hals,ead's court, yesterday morning. AT
that hour there was present lsrge number
of spectators, all of whom were doomed to
disappointment, neither the accused or the
prosecuting witness putting IN an appear
ance.
Whatever may have been the circum-
stances in the alleged seduction OF the ignOr-
ant German girl by Mack {; no matter what
eyidence he may have adduced
to p-,ye that the girl was
a common prostitute, young Mack
was in Il perilous position as Is concin-
sively proven by his unceremonions flight.
1t seems more than passing strange that a
man charged with felony; with crime OF
which If he WAS proven guilty, would con.
sign him to the p-niten,iary for term OF
wears, should he sdmittsd to bail in the
paltry sum OF $50. but SO lightly G-1 the
county attorney regard the ofiense that he
advised the Justice to fix the bond In that
sum.
1t is not to be wondered at that Mack
would improve the opportunity thus al.
forded him of leaving the consequences OF
his crime and the universal verdict OF the
knowing ones, was that he would have been
a large sized gray TO have jeopardized his
liberty by standing trial on the charges
preferred against him.
Prosecuting Attorney Heard must answer
to his constituents for turning loose upor
the community a self-confessed libertine.

Young men before he met her. This
She denied most emphatically. No
man, she said, had ever approached
her, and If she had not placed all reii-
ance in Mack's word, that he would make
her his wife, she would not now be in trou-
bic. This ended the interview and the
reporter left. :, :.
Katie is anything but handsome, and II
seems little strange that any one should
he smitten with her She is illiterste In
the truest sense Of the word, has an lmPedi'
ment in her speech, and it is probable that
young man like Mack, were he so inclined
could accomplish her ruin without any
great difficulty.
The prisoner, should he deem 1t wise to
be on hand when his case is called this
morning, will be defended by Captain l.. l.
Bridges.

IT WOULDN'T WORK.
How a Seventh Street Young Lady
Failed to Convince Her
Father.

The evil effects of irving to make old
time customs work in this age was related
to a BAzoO reporter the other day, and as
q warning to others who may "t.y it on"
he relates the incident. In this city is a
beautiful yonug lady who owned Grabbed
old father. She read about the prese nee Of
daughter, who, when the old man %. G.. J,
found him kneeling at the feet OF Miss e.,
pretended that he was pleading with her
to use her influence TO have the red-hesded
servant girl take rim for better or worse.
She treasured this fact up in her memory
for use on some opportune occasion, which
soon came along.
TWAS on Tuesday night; the old man
had set out TO take the train; his wOuld-b
son-iu-law had set out to see his adored
one, and the adored one had set herself out
to entertain him.
1t was her theory that if, for instance,
the servant girl came into the room with
out coughing. and found her Adolphus
squeezing her hand tropically, she would
strike an attitude, and say sternly, "Mr
Perkins, you presume on my good nature
for shame, sir |"
On Tuesday evening no servant girl ap-
peared, and they got to discussing their
life when they were married, with
much vigor, and after nearly part,
ing as enemies over dispute as to whether
the best spare bed room in the house they
would build after they got rich should be
carleted with velvet or moquette. got SO
deeply interested that the time slipped
away and the girl also slipped away-On
the knee of her own Adolphus, which was
the most natural thing in the world for he,
to do, of course.
The train was late, and the old man re-
turned home as mad as whole coop OF wei
hens. When he came in sight of the house
he was surprised, not to say disguised, to
see the parlor light turned down in a
manner SO suggestive TO parents with a
pretty daughter. He slipped up to the
blinds, and to his horror saw his daughter
resting as comfortably, if not as light as a
snow fiake, on her lovers knee, and her two
arms around her lovers neck, and both ex-
changing double lockstitch kisses with the
rapidity of a sewing machine.
"Wretched Fannie !" yelled the old man
as he rushed into the parlor, sand thou vile
dog"
Fannie bounded from her coign of want.
age, quivering with alright. But her ag'
iIation was only temporary, and in another
moment she stood calmly confronting bel
angry sire, while her silver-clear voice
cried to her lover: 'Unhand me, sir
Could nv father but see us, what would he
say? You should be ashamed to thus vio-
late his hospitality and all the rules ol
good society"
But, oddly enough, for once presence oi
mind didn't work. Cards next week.

Sedalians Awarded Patents.

Mr.. Eugene w. Vest informed a BAzoo
reporter, yesterday, that he had been
awarded a patent on his seed-planter,
and in few days he expects to have 1t on
exhibition to the public. Gene has spent
considerable time and money on this In
vention, and the BAzoo hopes he will realize
accordingly, for the city does not contain
q more interchangeable worker.
Among other patents awarded Monday
last was to one to Christopher Spray, OF
this city, on music dealers furnishing case,
which is highly commended by those CON-
petent to judge.

Overturned the Buggy.

Billy Gray, a painter in the employ OF
Barley Bros, in company with lady
friend, visited the park Tuesday evening,
for the purpose of being present at the last
grand free concert given by the Sedalia
Silver Cornet band.
They drove out in one of Fsrnham &
Gilman's turnouts, and after the concert,
started b me, when, just as they were ap-
preaching the park gate, the horse became
frightened and overturned the buggy. Mr..
Grav pluckily held to the reins. notwith-
standing himself and lady were dragged sew
eral wards with the vehicle on top OF them.
Strange to say, the lady was not injured
in the least. and Mr.. Gray sustained only
slight injuries. 1t was a narrow escape,
though. and in future they will probably
be satisfied to walk to the park.

from Lewiston, Maine, says: The Doris

usual number of sharpers that Follow all

to-day. Soon after dinner John III. Pet
tinyill, one of Lewiston's most solid and
Trustworthy business men, mpanied
by his grandson, started for the grounds.
On arriving there he was accosted by
three men and drawn into conversi-
ton. Finally one of the men produced
three cards, and in a joking way said
TO Mr.. Pettingill that he could not pick
out the face card-the three card monte
act Mr. Pettingil thought he could,
and he was successful in picking out
the right card six or seven times. The
dealer seemed to get excited and finally
offered to bet Mr.. Pettingill 81, 900 that
he couldn't do it again. Mr.. Pettingili
told him he did not have the money
with him. but would step down to the
bank and draw it and come back and
accept the bet. He soon appeared with
the money which was duly staked and
of course lost. Mr.. Pettingill is an able
and energetic business man about hfty
years old, methodical in his habits and

Cholera Traps.

The attention of the proper persons i.
called to the filthy condition of the gut
tiers about Front and Market streets.
Our attention was particularly called
this morning, by resident and proper
ty holder on Market street, to the gut.
ter on the north side. 1t might proper
ly be called a cholera trap. The stencil
arising from the accumulated filth is
unbearable, and is In just that condl-
tion to produce at least typhoid, if not
cholera. This is not the only gutter
that is in bad condition. There are
several, aye, dozens fgutters and filthy
places around our city which need the
immediate attention Of those who are
paid to keep our CUTTERS, streets, lanes
and alleys clean. Let there be no more
procrastination. Now is the time to
clean up, not after some disease has
made its appearance in our midst
which may cost valuable lives and
thousands of dollars before it departs
