The Professors Say.

Prof. Andrew Baepler, of the Ger.
man Lutheran college, Concordia, was
in the city yesterday, and favored the
BAzoo with a call. The professor was
reported by the BAzoo to have figured
in the Wille-Rodenburg scandal quite
extensively, and the object of his visit
to Sedalia was to set himself right
with the people of his community
through the columns of this paper.
From the statements made by the
gentleman, it is evident that he did no
more than any one else would have
done under the circumstances, and
was not in the leastwise prejudiced in
favor of Rev. Willie. Realizing that
an injustice was done the professor,
the BAzoo takes pleasure in giving
publicity to the above.

Deputy Sheriff w. r. Smith, as.
sisted by Mr.. j. w. Ragsdale, an ap.
pointed deputy, passed through the
city last night with the following pris-
oners, sentenced during the February
term of the criminal court at Moberly:
James Taylor and John Brisco, burg
larry, five years each land James Baker,
for receiving stolen property, two
years.
The property which Baker received
was stolen by David OBeien, recent
ly sentenced by the same court to
fifteen years imprisonment.
While being confined in the cooler
in this city awaiting the arrival of the
midnight train, John Baker, the last
named prisoner, with the aid of the
lead water pipe, succeeded in prying
the handcuff on his right hand of,
and had the officers not discovered it
in time, would probably have made

tribute to Mrs. Tabor in the
privacy of their chamber. An &c,
clesiastical court was convened, the
reverend gentleman constituting him
self prisoner, jury, and judge. The
trial was such an one as the people OF
Concordia had never b. fore dreamed
of, and to say that il waxed exceeding
ly warm would be exprt ssing it mildly.
IT'S needless to say the accused was
acquitted, as the verdict had been
made up before one iota of evidence
was heard. The pastor was aided not
a little by Prof. Baepler, of the Ger
man Lutheran college, and now the
indignant citizens promise to make it
warm, Notwithstanding the thermom-
eter is 100 below zero, for both the
preacher and the professor.
As closing finale, Mrs. Roden-
burg's reason has become dethroned,
and it is feared she will have to be re-
moved to the asylum. The matter is
the one subject of conversation with
the people of Concordia ard surround
