The OttervilIe Train Robbers Leave nc
Trace of Their Whereabouts.
SEDALIA, Mo-, Aug. 19-An efforts tc
obtain clew to the daring outlaws who
robbed the Pacific express car at Otter
Vile Saturday night have proved wholly
unavailing. The course of the robbers
after the crime is almost a complete
mystery and it is question now wheth-
er any of them will ever be captured
at least it will require the most perfect
detective work to unearth clew.
Missouri Pacific Detective DeLoDg,
who headed one of the first posses that
started out after the robbery became
known and worked persistently all day
yesterday and all last night, returned
In despair this morning. He believes
there were not over four men concerned
in the robbery. He and his assistants
went all over the country as far as YER
sailies and Upton The trails of two
hard riding men were struck near Aiken
vile and followed short distance, only
to be lest.
Policemen Gerrell and Sealey returned
yesterday afternoon from their long ride
and could make no report of an encour-
aging character. They started with a
posse Sunday morning, went to Flor
ence, Morgan County, and then rode
back, covering the country between
that point and this, but without result
The Farmers Alliance and Farmers
Anti-Horse-Thief Associations are thor

leave their work are joining in the
search for clews to the outlaws, though
so far as known no rewards have been
offered by the express company. One

the country between Otterville and the
Usage river.

ATCH1soN, Kan, Aug. 19.-The failure
of Wheeler & Co., clothing dealers Of
Washington, Kan, is said to- be bad
one. The firm, it is said, owes $4,000,
and has goods in stock of not
to exceed $4,000. The stock was
taken possession Of by relative OF
Mr.. Wheeler by virtue of chattel
mortgage of So, 600, but creditors have
replevined it and some interesting Hti.
cation is looked for. Wheeler located
in Washington short time ago with a
poor prospect of success, as the field
was already well occupied.

LONDON, Aug. 17.-Advices from East

give them lively reception. German

China,s Queer D,voroe Lava.

Divorce is not common in China
The law recognizes seven grounds for
the divorce of wife-namely, loquaci-
ty, malignant disease, neglect of hus-
bands parents, childlessness, thievish-
ness, adultery, waRton conduct and
jealousy. In China the avowed end OF
matrimony is to raise up a posterity to
burn incense at the ancestral graves;
therefore it is not surprising that
childlessness should be regarded almost
as a crime. To secure a divorce under
ordinary circumstances is no easy
thing. The family of the wife combat
it with great energy, for the reason
that no provision having been made for
her support by them after her marriage,
they are unwilling that she should be
thrown back upon them for living.
When the daughters are married off a
certain portion of land is set aside for
the parents, and the rest is divided
among the sons. No part is given to a
daughter. Therefore must every girl
wed or go to the dogs. 1t is common
for the husband to agree to provide for
the maintenance of the woman he di-
vorcei; in fact, this is the only way a
separation can be secured without a bit
ter fight, except in cases where unfaith.
tulness is provable. Chicago News.
