ICES a man with the instincts of fellow.
ship and the kindliness of humanity.
To-day he lies C Id in death and in an
agony of sorrow his loving wife and
children weep for the "touch of a
vanished hand and the sound of a
voice that is still"
But is their grief unshared by
the man who caused it? The BAzoo
does not believe it, it believes that
every tear these bereft ones sheds will
fall upon the penitent heart of Judge
John Higgins, who, naturally kindly
of heart, naturally an upright man,
naturally man of humane insancts,
naturally a man to whom the shoot
ing of "a fellow man could not be
otherwise than abhorrent, in one mad
moment of passion forgot everything
but that passion" and slew the one
against whom it was directed.
Alas! for the dead, alas for the
living.
Anger hls no place in the face Of
such distress and revenge loses its
significance.
The BAzoo believes that Judge
Higgins was carried away by an in
fiuence which, hsd its germ in
fancied wrongs, when he transgressed
the law and placed deadly weapon
in his pocket, but it cannot believe
that deliberate murder nerved the
hand that sought that weapon, when
blow answere ! to a taunt. Men do
not become murderers in heart at q
single bound; they do not stifis the
long years of friendship and good
feeling with the instincts ola criminal
on the instant and the friends of the
man who to-day sleeps his last sleep,
should carefully weigh all things and
with cool and dispassionate judgement
withhold condemnation, withhold
resentment, withhold anything which
savors of revenge, and as a law abiding,
law loving people, be content to stand
by the law and beneath the banner of
Christ remember that it is human to
err, it is divine to forgive and pity
the erring.

KILLED HIS MAN.
The Alleged Confession of .
Sugar Lake Telegraph
Operator.

St. Joseph, Mo-, November g.
Thomas Moore. of Sugar Lake, Platte
county, arrived in St. Joseph last
evening and spread the information
that Tip Dale, telegraph operator at
Sugar Lake, had confessed to the
killing of an unknoSn man there four
years ago also the killing of John
Iden, prominent farmer. whose body
was found floating on the lake a year
ago last August. Moore stated that
Dale implicated John Estes, a promi-
neut farmer near Sugar Lake. The
papers here published Moore's story,
and to-day Dale arrived in the city to
deny everything. To correspondent
ne said that when he made The con-
fession he was in beastly state of
drunkenness and that themen he talked
with were in no better condition. He
denied everything to-day and says he
will come out all right. Wsrrap.s
were issued for both Estes and Dale
charging them with the murder of the
unknown IN, and both have been
arrested and are now at Platte City.
1t is claimed by Moore that the
confession was made by Dale on the
train We nesday night, between ST.
Joseph and Sugar Lake. in presence
Of Prosecuting Attorney John Coats,
of Platte county. Squire A. Smith and
himself. Smith is the author of the
warrants, and the Prosecuting Attor-
ney to-day telegraphs that Dale had
confessed the murder of the unknown
man. The arrests have caused con-
siderable excitement in both Platte
and Buchanan couoties, as the men
arrested have heretofore borne good
characters.

A Kansas City man found another
man in his wife's room few days ago
and without asking any questions
deliberately shot the intruder to
death. The newspapers of Kansas
City in chronicling the affair, state
that the husband was "avenging his
honor" 1t would appear that des-
pite of the advance of christianity
and intelligence, there is still much
that has been left behind. 1t is alb
surd to talk about "avengiug mans
honor" in such cases as the one re-
ferred to. A mans honor depends upon
something else than the shooting of
man who has disgraced his home. 1t
depends upon his own record his
own integrity and it cannot be taken
away by the act of wanton wife,
therefore it cannot be avenged by
murder. There certainly is great
provocation in such a situation for q
husband, but when a man accideLtly
makes the discovery of another man
than himself in his wife's room, as the
husband in this case claims he did.
and yet has revolver ready to shoot,
nine times in ten he has not had much
honor to lose. No mans honor is
avenged by murder say what we will

and tooth for tooth"

The question of allowing women to
be represented in the general confer.
ence of the Methodist church is again
before the people, and so far, the vote
has been a favorable one. There is
no doubt that this Is right. The
Christian churches in general and the
Methodist church in particular owe
their vitality to the earnestuess and
zeal of their female membership. The
women not only outnumber the men
in all of the churches, but they Guido
them in good works and surpass them
in devotion to Christian duty. There
are thousands of men within the pale
of the church to-day who would not
be there if they had not been brought
into the ark of safety by their wives
and mothers and sisters. They have
been "sna,ched as brands from the
burning" by the sweet and grarious
influences which are exercised by good
women In all of the relations of life.
The Methodist church too, was in
reality founded by woman, and
John Wesley himself would never had
the courage to face the difficulties
which he had to encounter, bad it not
been for a woman and that woman
his mother. The active participation
of women in the means of grace has
always been Distinguishing feature
ofthe Methodist polity. They ''lead
in prayer" testify in the class meet
ings, exhort at the altar and
even preach with as much
acceptability as men, and, gener-
ally speaking, with more JUNCTION and
sincerity. In the work of devising
ways and means for the material sup
port of the church the women are
always instant in season and out OF
season, and all the ingenuity of their
fertile brains is constantly taxed in
carrying on this labor of love. The
social features of modern religion
which invest the churches with such
strong power of attraction are
almost wholly the result of woman's
work and would rapidly fail into
decay without her energizing efforts.
TIE women of the Methodist church
have proved fully equal to every duty
and obligation which has ever been
imposed upon them, and they are
abundantly fitted by a system of
religious training which develops
liberty of utterapce. cultivates self
reliance and familiarizes them with
questions of ecclesiastical policy, to
exercise a voice in the general con-
ference if they are permitted to do so.
