A Good Woman Called Home.

In the d ath of Mrs. Frank l.. Rob-
bins, who was laid to rest in Bethle-
hem cemetery The past week, a good
woman was called to her reward
where the ang Is dwell.
Mrs. Robbins maiden name was
Pattie S. Shy. She grew to woman
hood in Pett's county, and was the
flower Of an interesting family. In
the bloom Of young ma deHhood she
was welded to Frank l.. Rohbirs,
then a resident of Sedalia, and surely
no man ever bad a m re affrctionate
or devoted wife.
When Mr.. K .bbins met with finRn-
cial reverses here. he removed tn Lead
vile, COL, and his wife accompanied
him. The town was then a wild min
ing camp, but the devoted wife was
willing to bear all in older that she
might be with him whose name she
bore.
In 1882 they removed from Lead
vile to Durango, and thence in 1888
to Red Mountain, in the San Juan
country. Living in tent, and en-
countering all the hsrdships Of from
tier life, never a word of C 'mplsint
escaped her, but, instead, encourage
ment for her loving husband. Leav
ing the San Juan country, Mr.. and
Mrs. Robbins next took up their abode
in Denver, and it was there that Ms.
Robbins died-loved, honored and re-
spected by ali who knew her. In her
untimely demise the sympa by of this
community will be extended to the
affectionste husband, who his met
with loss beyond the power of pen
to portray.

CAUGHT MAPPING.
Four Strong and Healthy Young
Men Arrested for TrespaSs-
ing-Will Serve the City.

Officers Mike Scally and j. B. Muir
ply drew four of kind out of the
railroad yard pack early yesterday
morning. They were four strong,
robust and healthy young men, who
were wrestling in the arms of Nor
pheus in box car in the Missouri
Pacific yards. In the police court
yesterday morning they gave their
names IS William Mu!chey, Fred Har
ris, J. w. Quigley and Charles Watts
and residence respectively in St.
Louis, Kansas City, Indiana and
Kentuckv. They pleaded guilty to
trespa 81 g and Judge Halstead fined
them SO and costs each, and ordered
that their fines should be paid in hard
labor on tie streets, with or without
ball and chain at the discre-
ton of the chief of police. LIN this
connection the judge stated that he
proposed, in the future, to deal out such
%. rioc doses Of justice to this class of
offenders that as soon as Sedalia's re-
putation In this direction was spread
brosdcast over the country, tramps,
thieves and burglars would give this
city a wide ber'h.
William Craig was fined one dollar
for being drunk and $40 for turning
a peaceful atmosphere into a raging
Hades.

The Republic Answers j. II. NJ.

The St. Louis Republic of Satur-
day gives very sensible answer to
very foolish question propounded by
"M. j. H." Of Sedalia, as follows:
81. II. NJ, Sedalia, Move do
not know what gave rise to the alb
surb stories which form the basis Of
your questions. There is no founda-
ton of truth in any of them. The
absurdity of circulating a petition
against the passage by congress of
certain dangerous Sunday laws Is
apparent to everyone who knows that
every state makes its own Sunday
laws, and that under the consti,u-
ton congress has no power to enact
any such regulations.

Our farmers are practical men aud
having all been raised on the farm
ourselves, we feel free to speak to the
farmers.
"Come, now, let US rsa on to-
geiher." The more people there are
in Sedalia to eat food and wear
clothes the better market for your
farm products. The more factories
you have, the more people you viii
have. And the more yuu patrOnize
the factories you already have, the
sooner you will have more. If you
do not patronize those you already
have, you cannot hope for others TO
stsrt up, and just so long as you crn-
tinue to buy your goods from the east,
t. the neglect of your Pcttis c'unty
and Missouri-msde G DDS, just so long
will you continue to enhance t e in
terest of the eastern msn, to the de-
triment of your own interest, because
every dollar you pay out for
eastern made goods goes back
to the east, and when it goes back
there it never returns 10 Missouri
sgain, except you borrow it and give
nOrtage on your fam to secure liz
payment. Not so, however, when you
inv,st your dollars in home made
goods; for the money you pay us for
homemade goods We pay back to the
farmer for wool and to our employees
for labor; and they pay it back to you
for corn, wheat, meat, chickens, eggs,
butter, vegetables. lard, feathers and
everything they use and that you
have to sell, aud thus by investing
your money with your home manu-
features, you put it in chanrel
which runs it right back into your
own pockets.
Now we make and always have 90

jeans, blankets, socks, Stockings, lin
sey, iull cloth satinet, and cashmere,
all of which are warranted first class.

every dollars worth of goods we can
make and much more at wholesale
away from Sedalia, but we don't want
to do this. We want every farmer
IN Pettis county to try our home
made WOODEN goods this fall, and if they
do not prove better and cheaper in
the end than eastern goods,
we will not expect you to try them
again. To the many who
have always so iberaly patronized us,
We desire to return our sincere thanks
and solicit continuation oil

world of heredity, of prenatal influence, of
infantile environment, the greatest right
of which we can conceive, the right of the
child to be well born, is being slowly,

1t is no narrow sphere we are filling. 1t
is deep and broad as the need of the soul,
wide and large as heaven. The fields are
ready for the sowing. Our children and
our children's children for untold genera

The little seed we scatter by the wayside
today shall be a mighty fruitful tree in
the future.
This afternoon you will hear something
from the Department of Health. These

preventive, have been placed under one
head. | hope something will be said in
one or both papers that will touch some
heart in every Union represented here, and
the response will be, ''Here am /, that is

CARPETS.

IN ADDITION to the limited

Carpets that we usually show, we
have been offered the Agency for
one of the LARGEST MANU-
FACTURERS IN PHILADEL
PHIA. They have sent us a line
of samples selected from a stock of
nearly quarter million of dollars
worth of goods of their own make.
They have a large wholesale and
retail warehouse on one Of the prin-
cipal business streets in the city,
and by the arrangements we have
made with them, we can get all the
carpets we want from their stock in
such quantities as the customer may
choose to purchase, and deliver it
here at trifling profit over the cost
to make. Carpets matched and cut
to fit any room, if a diagram of the
room is furnished us, and made up
already to put down if desired.
This is no patent exhibitor, but
actual samples of carpets from "
to 2 yards in length, SO that you
see exactly what you are to get.
We may have just what you want,
as we show al! kinds Of Wool In
grains as we'll as Tapestry, Velvet,
and Body Brussels.
If we are not able to meet your
wants we can give you letter Of
introduction to the Philadelphia
House, where you can do your
trading with those who make the
goods. This may be a saving Of
several dollars to you if you go to
the city to buy.
A letter of introduction over our
name counts for something.
Come and see our samples and
we may be able to benefit you.

AT HUMPHREYS STORES

Twenty-Five years ago last month
we commenced business at the cor
ner. and our trade has gradually
and steadily grown year by year
until now it is the largest in the
county. Our reputation as mer-
chants is we'll known, and no man
has vet dared to proclaim or assert
that our business methods were not
straight. We are just as eager to
dobusiness now as we were in 1866.
Although we were twenty-five years
Younger then than now our chosen
occupation still has its attractions.
We will continue at the old
stand, and invite all our old friends
to continue with us and as many
new ones as may conclude to give
us trial.
We will keep up Our stock SO
far as the wants of the people seem
to demand, and in the future as in
the past try to give each OF our pa
irons full and equitable value for
their money outlay.

We have made especial prepara-

Boys and Children's Clothing.
1t is not at all times convenient
for the mother to take her little
boys to the city, besides itis expen-
sive. We have over twenty styles
and patterns of children's 2-piece
suits at all prices from $3.50 to
s5.75, and there is saving in the
price of every one--in other words
there is not single suit but we can
and will sell you cheaper than you
can match it for in Philadelphia.
This being the case it would seem
like a waste Of time and money to
60 to the city for these wants. Stop
in and look through our stock.
Those in charge will take pleasure
in showing it to you. You are not
expected or importuned to buy.
We have invested thousands Of
dollars in our Spring Stock Of
Clothing for Youths and Young
Men, and can suit all both in quality
and in price.
We still take 10 per cent. off on
shoes, and will continue to do SO
until further notice 1t makes prices
low. Stop in and see how low we
are selling them. Every pair war
ranted good quality.
