Favorable TO Railroa Is.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.-The railroad
bill in the Legislature known as the Barry
bill, and which, i'm the largest measure, COW
cred the object for which the extra session
was called. was, in an amended form, passed
by the Senate by a unanimous vote. Under
the bill as passed by the Assembly, where il
originated, the railway companies would nave
forfeited their right to operate within the
State, first, if they suffered Determinations
in freight over their roads; second, if they
failed to keep track and structures in efficient
repair; third, if they accepted charters from
any other Government, State or sovereignty;
fourth, if they failed to comply with the
fare and freight schedules fixed by the Rail-
road Commissioner. In its amended form
the first and third conditions are rendered
nugatOry, the special contract system re-
mains intact and the forfeiture of railroad
charters is placed beyond State laws. At
the present moment the relations of railway
companies to the State Government are as
before the call of the extra session. 1t is
now clearly established that no radical anti
railroad measure can pass the Senate. An
early adjournment is quite possible.

How Oatmeal is Made.

After the oats have been properly
cleaned by sitting they are sub ected to

This operation requires some care to

BOLD BANK ROBBERS.
An Attempt to Rob the Bank Mt Medicine

An Attempt to Rob the Bank ut Medicine
Lodge. kas.-The President and Cashier
Shot.
KANSAS CITY, May IA special to the
Times of this morning, from Harper, Kas.,
says: A courier just in states that a bold
but unsuccessful attempt WAS made at ten
o'clock this morning to rob the Medicine
Valley Bank. at Medicine Lodge, Barber
County, in which George Geppert,
Cashier, was instantly killed, and
Z. W. Payne, President, fatally wounded.
Four men, well armed with Wincles-
Ter repeating rifles and revolvers, rode
up to the bank soon after it opened, two re-
naming with the horses while the Others
entered and demanded the money. Both
the President and Cashier refused to conf
ply. and were at once fired upon as above
stated. Just then the City Marshal
appeared. and taking in the situation
at a glance opened fire Oh those
inside, which soon attracted others, and
seeing their game was up the robbers
mounted and rode away without the swag.
Within ten minutes thirty men were in hot
pursuit and doubtless ere this have cap
tured the bandits and sent them to join
their victim. No clue to their identity was
had. MIR. Geppert was a promising mer-
chant, while Mr.. Payne was editor of the
Tndcr and a wealthy and influential stock
man. Medicine Lodge is situated about
fifty miles west of Harper, and being of
any railroad or telegraph line, news has to
come by carriers. There is the greatest ex-
element here over tine bold affair, as both
Geppert and Payne are widely known citi
zens through this portion of the State,
and nave hundreds of friends among
the StOckmen. 1t is thought the
robbers came up from the Indian Territory,
and the killing of the bank officer was
brought about by what followed after the
robbers entered the bank. Officers and men
from Harper are ready to assist in the pur-
suit and capture of the murderers. and If
caught they will undoubtedly be lynched.

As general rule the weaker take the
lighter labors@ the more intelligent the
higher. This is true in either sex, as it is
both relatively. There is one break in the
historical operation of the law, and this
occurs in the institution of feudalism which
took place in the middle ages and which
was sort of capitalization Of war in social
forms. This feudalism assumes a singular
sentimental development in what is called
chivalry, which passing from the extreme
of throwing all industries upon women
decreed that they should perform none, the
lady class at least. Useful pursuits, such
as yield money, the earning of a livelihood
were forbidden them and became a sort of
disgrace badge of nferiority. The
traces of this rule are still widely visible IN
modern society. And quite naturally, for
the mostadvanced communities have barely
emancipated themselves from the yoke Of
feudalism. Where the actual forms have
been discarded, the feudal sentiment and
its peculiar prejudices aud associations re-
main in greater or less force England is
still a semi-feudal society. And America,
with all its democracy, can claim to be
scarcely more than demi-semi -feudal. 1t
is only yesterday that lady could
use a well developed brain and hand With
