She had a Quart of Kummel.

Mont Carnes had a lively tine
night before last coming home from
Leavenworth, on the train. 1t hap
pened to be located on a chair in the
car, near a woman about 90 years old
who was going from Leavenworth to
Washington ID. G. The woman had
with her quart of kummel and was
gloriously full, or rather was madlin
drunk. A gentleman and his sick
wife occupied the chairs Immediately
behind the woman. Every once and
a while she would jump mp and grab
the gentleman or his sick wife by the
hair, keeping up all the while an in
cesrsant flow of drunken talk, that
was at times laughable, but Oftener
pathetic. Finally she sprung up in
her delrium and rushed for the door.
Mont, always to be depended upon at
such times, sprang after her and sue
ceeded in catching her before she
could leap from the train. He forced
her back to her seat, and then ex-
changed seats with the lady and gen
tleman and watched her closely until
the train reached Seddlia. The quart
of kummel was taken from her, and |
incontiently pitched over5DIrl. The
woman was travelling alone.

Sherma, Texas, Oct. l4.-Parties in to-
day from the Indian Territory report the
NEST extensive and destructive prairie fires
raging ever known in that section. The
kindling of the fires is a mystery, but il is
regarded as certain they are of malicious
origin. Millions of acres of the finest graz
ing lands in the country, which few DAYS
ego were covered with the heaviest and
richest of grass are now deSOlate black
wastes. The area burned over extends from
Vinita on the north to Muskogee
on tie south, and on either side OF the Mis-
souri,, Kansas d Texas railroad, as far as
the eye can see. A large number of cattle
have been burned TO death near EryOr
Greek, and many telegraph poles burned
almost in two. When the FIRE first started
about four days ago the inhabitants of the
sparsely settled region attempted to sub 'ue
the flames but were unable to do so. The
matter of its origin is to be investi-
gated by the Indian agent at Vinita. Many
herds of cattle have been deprived of sus-
tenance on their natural range and will
have to be adriven elsewhere to avoid
starving.
One theory as to the origin of the fires is |
II at they were set by sparks from railroad
engines, but this is hardly tenable as they |
are too numerous and made too clean a |
sweep, not stopping for large streams or
heavy strips OF timber, the country be-
tween them being all burned alike, show
ing the fires were ignited between the |
streams and timber belts.
Another theory is they are the result of
carelessness by employees in burning up old |
ties taken from the roads while making re- |
pairs, as companies do not allow any old
lies 10 remain unburned.
All through the territory in the country
tributary 10 the railroads immense guam
titles of hay has been stacked, both
baled and unbaled, reaching up into the
millions of tons.

THE SORROWS OF SIN.
A Young Girl of East Sedalia

erection.

In small frame house, near the
corner of Engineer and Fourth
streets, yesterday morning at six
o'clock, a young girl about seventeen
years old, gave birth to an illegitimate
child. Her name is Annie Bigsby.
She had been in this city only since
last Friday, and it was said that she
was seeking work.
A BAZoo reporter called at the
place yesterday and came near receiv-
ing warm reception from the con-

The woman at whose house the girl
was, is something of a virago, and
had been considerably stirred up by
the visits of reporters who had gone
before the BAZ)oITE, so it required
considerable urbanity and smoothing
over, and no little display of cheek to
get at anything like the particulars.
But in full view of the steamihg tea
kettle and directly in front of the ir-
ate woman, it was CLEANED that the
girl was "a motherless and friendless
girl, with drunken father whose
whereabouts are. unknown. The girl
has been knocked from pillar to post,
and from a tender age has had to fight
the world, the flesh, the devil and power
ty, all alone. She came to Sedaiia from
the country where she has been work
ing as a servant. All the persuasive
powers of the reporter were exhausted

close the name of her betrayer. She

Why the "ROyal" lis the Best.

The improved method by which il
has been made possible to produce
pure cream of tartar, has had an i'm.
portant bearing upon the manufact.
ure of baking powder. By the pro-
cess heretofore generally employed, it
has been found impossible to remove
all impurities, more particularly the
tartrate of lime, which remained to
such an extent as to greatly impair
the quality of the cream of tartar,
and to interfere seriously with the
strength and whOlesomeness of the
baking powders into which it en-
tered.
In the new process, which is owned
by the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany of New York, and exclusively
employed in its extensive tartar works,
the imported crude grape acid is Sd
treated as to remove all vestige of tar
trate of lime or other impurities. Civ
ing a product before UNKNOWN
chemically pure cream of tartar.
By the employent of these superior
facilities, the Royal Baking Powder
Company has made the Royal Baking
Powder, as the chemists all certify, of
the highest possible degree of strength,
absolutely pure" and wholesome, and
with an always uniform leavening
power. 1t is for these reasons that
the Royal" never fails to produce
bread, biscuit, cakes, etc., that are
light, sweet, digestible, and whole
some; the eating of which is never fol-
lowed by indigestion, or any of those
physical discomforts attendant upon
the partaking of improperly prepared |
food. In rendering possible the pro-
duction of backing powder possessed
of these qualifications, the improved
method of refining cream of tartar be-
comes at once a matter of material i'm
portance to the culinary world.

nut, but they never are to the aver.
age reporter. 1t would be supposed
that he would get used to the misery
encountered almost daily, but he does
not.
Night before last the train from the
south brought among the passengers
a comedy young lady of about twenty,
with babe in her arms that looks
like it was not more than two weeks
old, but the mother says that it is
one month old. The woman, whose
name is Lizzie. Hawk, was on her way,
so she says, to Clifton in Cooper
county. She got off the train here
and went to the ladies' waiting room,
where she remained all night, nursing
the sickly-lookirg infant. The train
from the south yesterday was six
hours late, and train was made up
here to 60 north at the regular time,
nine o'clock. The woman missed this
train, it going out, she says, while
she was getting something TO eat. So
she stayed all day yesterday in the
waiting room, and last night until
II o'clock. Yesterday evening at
supper time, Lewis Sweeny, the mail
carrier who had noticed the woman
sitting around the night before, and
all day, began to question her and
found out her condition. He kindly |
took her to his home for supper. |
While at Mr.. Sweeny's she told, that,
she had been living at Fort Scott, |
Kan. that she and her husband. John
Hawk, had separated because of his
and abuse; that he had
eft Fort Scott for Colorado a short
time before she became a mother;
hat after the child was born she had
odd her things and was going to a
cousin living five miles north of Cliff
,on, named Wood.
While she was at Mr.. Sweeny's
