Mrs. Kahn this mo. ming. He found
her in teus. Her feelings were
greatly wrought up and it was ex-
tremely difficult for her to talk about
the occurrance. However, the TO-

frantic with grief and rage and gave

SIT is said the girl telegraphed to
Corns, who was at Sedalia to meet her
there, and that she took the morning

The following, from Fridays Par
sons Journal, uoder the heating of
"Of such is The kingdom of Heaven, !"
is a touching tribute to the memory
of little Mable Rasbach:
Sickness and death invade every
household with remurseless certainty,
but when the funeral trappings are
carried into the home from whence
has just disappeared the sound of a
childish voice it is sorrows crown OF
sorrows, Men talk lesrningly and
bravely of death and sometimes they
can appreciate the extent of the
heartbreak when they walk solemDly
behind the coffin of men of state or
stand uncovered beside the bier of
some young friend. But when the
white plumes are nodding over a
tiny coffin; when little hands are fol-
ded forever and the rose of the fever
gives place to the lily of death when
the eyes are closed to the light of a
mothers love, and its voice is hushed
in inexplicable stillness-these are the
mysteries of life in the presence of
which there are no words to bridge
the great gulf between the earth and
the angels. We forget sometimes
that the reaper with his sickle keen,
reaps the bearded grain at a breath
and the flowers that grow between
1t may be the good Father has suffered
little children to come unto Him i'm
order that Heaven may indeed be the
kingdom If heaven. AS violets in
the spring and as the dew upon the
rose, there would be no heaven with
out the children.
Our thoughts are drawn out along
this line on account of the death of
little Mabel Rasbach, which occurred
at Fort Worth, Tex, last Monday
and whose funeral took place from the
home of her uncle and aunt, Mr.. and
Mrs. j. j. PiersOn, yesterday after
noon. The funeral ceremony was
by Rev. j, J. Wilkins,
pastor of the Episcopal church at
in the presence of a large
of friends from Sedalia and
other points who had known Mabel
in life. The casket of pure white,
was covered with cut flowers. After
the ceremony at home, the relatives
followed the remains to lakewood
cemetery, their last resting place.
The grave was encircled with a +.
wreath of flowers and its lovely ap- !
pearance will leave lasting impress.

SHEDDING HIS ANTLERS.

How the Great Elk Stag Loses His Beau
ty In the Spring.
Come with me and / will show you
something curious" said Dan Neeson,
the keeper Of the deer park at Colder
Gate Park, to a reporter. Our great
elk stag, the ono we got few months
ago from Menlo Park, has shed his
horns and you would not recognize him.
On reaching the fence that surrounded
the pen, the elk was found at the fodder
trough calmly eating his dinner OF
cracked barley, and apparently oblivi.

ed him. He was hardly recognizable.
The magnificent antlers that had rem.
dered him the admiration of the visit
ors were missing, and nothing remained
but raw, blood-marked hubs The elk
was as docile as a COW, and submitted
without opposition to the caresses of the
crowd, and appeared to thoroughly enjoy
their stockings

ing" continued the keeper. 'Of late
he has been more than usually fero-
ciouS, in fact so much so that it was dan
gerous to my life to enter the pen to
feed the deer. On Friday he would not
allow me to enter the Enclosure at all.
On Saturday morning l failed to find
him in his usual place, and on my way
to the deer-house to hunt him up came
across one of his antlers In the gullev,
and within short distance | found the
other. | then knew what was the mat
ter, and entering boldly into the house
l found him standing with the deer
cow, as quiet and docile as child.
Why, he then ate some food out of my
hand. | took the antlers to the super
intendent's Office, where they now are"
AT the office the antlers were seen,
end a magnificent set they are, having
on the beam horn six protuberances,
one for each year of the stays age.
They weighed seventy pounds, and
when set in position measured seven
feet from tip to tip on the spread.
New antlers will begin to grow on the
stag by the middle Of March, and will
increase rapidly in length until teey at

SUBSTITUTE FOR FELT.
New Material of Which Hatters Have
Just Gotten Hold.

A New Material of Which Hatters Have
Just Gotten Hold.
Many Of the cheap derby hats that
will be worn on the streets of st. Louis
this spring VIII be made Of a new ma
terial of which the matters have just got
hold. The stuff is called linters. 1t Is
she cotton has been ginned by the cot
ton-raiser. He sells his cotton to the
merchant, and the seed to q mill that
makes cotton-seed Gil. The miller puts
the seed through another gin, specially
made to clean short cotton from the
seed. In an oil mill of small capacity
several bales of cotton are ginned from
the seed in this way. The fiber Is
broken and very short, and up to few
months ago the mills sold it to stuff
bedding with. Its price was about half
that of average cotton. The negroes in
the South were the buyers generally,
but occasionally the mills would get
good, big order from concerns that made
pillows and mattresses Suddenly
somebody found out that 1t could be
made to initiate felt for cheap hats.
The experiment then of making hats of
linters was tried on large scale this
winter by New York factory, and the
hats were sold to retailers for introduce
lion very cheaply. The test showed
that the hats stood wear, anG the oil
mills were at once called on by the
manufacturers to make contracts for all
the linters they could get off the cot
ton-seed. Now linters has gone away
up in price and is only few cents a
pound cheaper than cotton. The dis
,oyery is likely to have lowering eff
feet upon the kind of derbies which
nave sold for three dollars, and in fact
some merchants are already using the
linters derbies as leaders for their
other goods, selling them at half the
cost OF the felt hat-St Louis Globe

WOMEN AS DOCTORS.
Profession to Which the Sex Seems to BE
Especially Adapted.

Profession to Which the Sex Seems to BE
Especially Adapted.
The Woman's Medical College of this
city graduated forty physicians last
week. Forty years ago there was no
opportunity for a woman to graduate as
a physician in any institution of the
country; and even twenty years ago
woman physician was next to freak in
her community and contemptuously
frowned upon by the profession. Now
forty women arc graduated from one
institution in day, and there is gen
eral popular welcome of the softer sex
to the practice of medicine.
There is not only no reason why
women should not be physicians, but
there are many and pressing reasons
why they should practice medicine.
While there are a few things in the
practice that they might not be as well
adapted to as men, they are quite as
we'll adapted to even the exceptional
duties referred to as male physicians are
to many delicate duties they now per-
form for WON without complaint In
large majority of the ailments to which
humanity is subject, women physicians,
with equal intelligence and skill, are
certainly the equal of men in profess
sional usefulness, and there are many
complaints of their own sex which
should especially command the services
Of women physicians
The world has advanced with wonder
full rapidity during the last century in
the recognition of the rights and capa-
bilities of women. 1t is only forty-two
years since married women IN Pennsyl-
gania had no right over even their own
property acquired by either inheritance
Or their own labor, and they were then
practically unknown as clerks and sales
women; were little known as teachers,
and the professions were regarded as
entirely beyond their reach. Now the
world has learned that woman is entitled
to just an even chance in every calling
to which she is at all adapted. and in
medicine, law and science she is now
teacher and practitioner. The old preju-
dice against unsexing women by giving
them any opportunity outside of the
kitchen, the laundry and the nursery,
was the creation of unmixed ignorance,
and to-day the only just complaint that
women can make is against the yet pre-
valent custom of paying women less
than men are paid for precisely the
same service. Women are quite as re-
fined now as they were when unknown
in the great battles of life, and the
whole tendency of the age is toward the
only manly theory of giving women fair
play all around.-Philadelph Times.

woMAN,s CHARM.
An Indefinable Something That It il
Hard to AnalvZe.


Hard to Analyze.
Beyond beauty, cleyerness, wit, at
tainments, beyond any endowment
which can be given to woman, is the
simple and indefinable attribute which
we call charm. 1t is impossible to ana
I'VE its component parts, and equally sc
TO write a prescription in avoirdupois OF
apothecary's weight the resultant pre-
cipitate of which shall compose this best
of the Creator.,s gifts to woman.
Eve had IL, we fancy, and Miriam,
Ruth and the Queen of Sheba; and ii
belonged, too, no doubt, to Jezebel, the
infamous but splendid and surprisingly
brave Princess, before whom even
Eliiah's courage quailed- Sappho had
charm: so had Cleopatra and Beatrice
and Rosalind. Mary of Scotland be-
witched mems hearts not less by hen
conouering charm than by her wonder
ful loneliness and dauntless daring
while Elizabeth of England = many
sided. strong and resolute, with mans
heart under her woman's cOrsage- had
the fatal defect of lacking charm.
There are women in every community,
in every church, who, with no apparent
effort. captivate all hearts and enjoy a
popularity which others vainly envy,
continuing TO please till their latest
day. for age can not wither nor custom
stale the infinite variety of really
charming woman. A rose is rose, and
a cabbage is a cabbage, and each has its
place; but nobody claims charm for a
cabbage, though it take the prize at a
country fair; while the simplest rosebud
on the bush by the wayside challenges
the world of flowers with this royal
distinction.
What is it? A trick of manner, OF
speech, a lifting of the eyebrow, Q
dropping of the lip, an air of gentle
breeding, fne-grained courtesy? These
may be part of it, but charm is some
thing deeper. The pretty waitress al
your elbow may possess it, while 1t Is
denied to her mistress, the daugh ter,
perhaps, of hundred earls. Whatever
else 1t is, be assured it IS pure woman
illness, and has belonged to the fair sex
since that far-off day when the sons o,

SPANS PASSION PLAY.

Tears and Lamentations.

Spectacle That MoI ed Its Beholders to
Tears and Lamentations.
The Passion play in which Sara
Bernhard wishes to appear continues
TO be the subject of an interesting dis
,ussion in some of the French papers.
Sara in the role of the Virgin Mary
seems to be too much, even for Paris
ians. But in Spain they take quite a
different view of it. In his interesting
book upon the Spanish Theater NJ.
Charles Habeneck says:
in 1857 l saw at Madrid, during Holy
Week, The Passion of Our Lord
drama in five acts, and know not how
many tableaux. The piece was by no
means bad-far from it; and l remarked
some beautiful lines and splendid
scenes. Among the latter was one in
which Jesus, before his entry into Je-
rasalem, where he knew that they would
pat him to death, asked the permission
Of his mother to sacrifice himself for
humanity. The mother refused, and
Mary Magdalen joined her in en-
treating him TO remain. In tears he
disobeyed. Then the scene changed,
and we saw Christ, surrounded by his
apostles, coming into Jerusalem. seated
upon a white ass, followed by her little
one. The actor who played the part Of
Christ did it with profound faith. He
seemed to be reciting prayer. AS for
Judas, he wore an immense blonde wig,
which made him look like Louis XIV
When he appeared upon the scene, the
audience murmured, and, if he had not
committed suicide, believe they would
have killed him. The several scenes of
the pretorium were represented, includ-
ing the fagellation and the browning
with thorns, which were rendered with
fearful realism. Then commenced the
ascent TO Calvary. never witnessed a
spectacle more moving, more heartrend-
ing. The actor never spared us sigh,
a tear or a cry. Jesus was slowly nailed
to the cross, and each stroke of the ham
mer echoed painfully in the hearts of
the spectators, who seemed terror
stricken. Finally the cross was raised.
Jesus tasted the sponge soaked in vine
gar, and spoke to the thieves. The sol
diers threw dice for his cloak, while the
holy women wept- Then, when Christ
cried out, 'Eli En-! lama sG6acthdHip
and let his head drop, all the lights
were almost completely eXtinguished;
strange flicker illuminated the scene;
the dull rumbling of bass drums sound
ed like thunder; the tombs opened, and
oil the spectators fell upon their knees,
striking their breasts and murmuring
