Woman Can and Will Speak in Public.

Editor of Womans Chronicle
Am just home from the National Convention
and | feel so sorry for all those dear white rib
boners who were not there to enjoy the feast with
me. Twas much encouraged to find so many Pro-
hibtionists. The large church was crowded at
every meeting with enthusiastic men and women,
and they were so interested they were willing to
stand for hours when they were not able to get
seats.
One thing impressed me very forcibly, it seemed
to be taken for granted that women would speak
in public; and again, that she could In listening
to the presentation of the different phases of the
W. G. I. U. work, that of The Evangestic depart
ment struck me as being among the most impor-
taut. Our people need to be aroused out of their
Indifference, need to be made to feel that ''you"
and opp are responsible for much of the crime,
inasmuch as we are silent, and what better way TO
do this than to remind them of their obligations
to God and man as Christs followers.

Col. Anne Baxter.

The ungallant Filley Republican who is contest
Ing Col. Anne Baxter's right to be County Clerk
In Jasper needs to be given hard road to travel
and then sent to the to the tune that the old
COW died by There is certainly nothing in his
claim that the statute fixing the qualifications of
county clerks uses the masculine pronoun she"
throughout, for it is well-known rule of grammar
that the masculine pronoun is made to do duty for
persons both of the male and female sex. Not
even in the English language does grammatical
gender correspond always with sex and in hardly
any other civilized language does it make any near
approach to doing so. In English the neuter pro-
noun 'it' is frequently used in referring to child
and to domestic and other animals whose sex is
perfectly we'll known. And, as the Brunswicker
points out, the Missouri Statutes use the pronoun
che in relation to the nouns ''intestate' and
"teacher,o whereas everybody knows that women
are allowed 10 have wills of their own after death
as we'll as during life; and without women teach
ers the young idea would not learn to shoot with
any accuracy at all. So the pronoun chez in the
statutes does not bar Col. Baxter's way to office.
The argument that because only men are allowed
to vote in Missouri none but men are competent
to hold office is weak and illogical. If men, as
the lords of creation, have the exclusive right to
confer, they certainly have the right to confer it
upon whom they please, provided there is no ex-
press legal prohibition. The Jasper County men
voted Col. Baxter into the county clerkship. Emu
lating the example of the hungarians who prom
ised to die for their "King," Maria Theresa, they
should see to it that her right is not overhrown by
the mercenary person who has the effrontery to
contest her claim. When the question of her ell
gibility as deputy clerk was submitted to Attorney
General Boone some years ago, he held that she
was eligible. If competent to be deputy clerk,
why not to be clerk? The simplest and the only
right way to settle the contest is TO throw the con-
testant out of court-St Louis Republic.

"The Baptist who votes for license should be ex-

none of the spirit of the Master. How any could
favor such traffic in the face of the t0ars the dis
tress the wrecked families, he could not conceive.

fortunes, the most astounding audacity of all

family in five has to furnish a drunkard No
grander fraud was ever perpetrated than license.
No such iniquity ever cursed humanity. No one is
allowed membership in West Plains Baptist church
who in any sense favors the liquor traffic" So,
with great force, spake Bro Wright, of Missouri.
"What is duty, individually, In relation to this
traffic? We should study this. Stand together,
is our duty" So spoke Bro. Minton, editor of
the Crowley Ridge Baptist. The report advised
the withdrawal of the hand of fellowship from
those who, in any sense, favored the traffic. A
standing vote Endorsed the report-Arkansas

Kind, Encouraging Words From Our
Brother-in-LaW.

DEAR Mrs. CHACE:-I have read about the At
lanta Convention and, like you, think it will bear
good fruit. Our cause is bottomed so much ON
morality and the good of mankind everywhere,
that it seems to me it is bound to go forward as
the world rolls on and besides this, it is the first
great public move for the betterment of the hui
man family, where the women were allowed to take
leading part in the conduct of its public bust
ness; and thus it brings to its support that half
of our race which has heretofore, by the force of
public opinion, been excluded from giving the full
weight of thoughts and activities for the promo
ton of the cause. Woman was never so near the
place God intended she should occupy as she is
to-day. Yours, respectfully,

Indians Getting Restless.

Capt. Trimbleton, of the Seventh Unit
ed States cavalry, passed through Pitts
burg few days ago on his way from Fort
Sill, I. T., to New York, and conversed
with a Chronicle-T Telegraph reporter on
the outlook in the Indian section. He
said: "No one who is not in the Indian
reservations can comprehend the almost
magical spread among them Of the i'm
preston that the Great Medicine Man is
once more about to visit the earth. Thou
sands of Indians are forsaking their
plows and agricultural occupations to
sulk in solitude when they are not con-
Quoting wild orgies to welcome the
Great Medicine Man. -
The effect of the fanatical preachings
of certain tribal leaders is proving a
source OF grave alarm. One part of
their religious exercises is daily wash
in the Washita river. On the banks of
that stream they expect the Medicine
Man to appear, who is to cover the world
with thirty feet Of soil, exterminate the
white race, and once again apportion
the country out for the tribes of Indians.
Ibelieve that therewin be a serious out
break among the Indians as q result Of
this religious excitement. The sight of
10000 Indian braves and squaws flock
ing to the Washita river every morning
to bathe and chant wild dirges is calcu-
lated to excite apprehension among army
officials and white settlers alike"

Drifting Down.
Gone the ripple and the rushes

Gone the ripple and the rushes
OF the love songs of the thrushes,
Gone the roses in the closes of the garden, and
the bushes
OF the shy verbena creeping
By the old south wall, and sleeping
All its sweetness in the sunshine of the sleepy
summer bushes.
And ever o'er it all, in O gold and crimson pail,
Over mignonette grown tawny, and o'er grass q
bronzng brown,
With rustic and q whir and q sad and solemn
stir,
The leaves are drifting down, DEAR oh, the leaves
are drifting down.
Come the mornings gray and chilly,
Come the nights serene and Silly,
Comes an airy midnight fairy, tracing fern and
rose and lily
On the window panes that glisten,
While in dreams the children listen
To the swing Of skates that ring, and shouts that
echo shrilly,
And ever, ever still, in the hollow, ON the hill
BY the roadside, where the sunfiower lifts aloft
ruined crown,
Like the-dear old dreams of youth. dreams Of
honor, fame and truth,
Forever falling from us-do the leaves keep drift
ing down.
Let the summer set in splendor,
Let the summer tribute render
Bridelike beauty, bridelike duty, every charm d.
vine and tender
To the conquering king, who loudly
All in trumpet tones and proudly
Tells the story of his captive and her passionate
surrender.
And with the leaves that fall, in a rich and royal
pail,
Ger the rose hearts crumbled crimson, and the
grass grown dull and brown,
Let the bitterness, the strife all the little ills Of
life,
Go drifting, drifting down, dear-with the leaves
go drifting down.

A Dry Season in Kansas.

Ex-State Senator Joel Moody, of Linn
county, located in Kansas in 1857, and
has rarely been out of the state since.
Speaking of drought, he says that in
: 1860 Kansas had a drought by the side Of
which this year was good. 1t quit rain
ing in September, 1859, and did not
commence again until the following
September. The winds were so hot as
to cook eggs before the hens could lay
them, and not thing was raised in
Kansas. The next season was exactly
the reverse, and produced abundantly
everything that was put into the ground.
He thinks the season Of 1890 corresponds
to that of 1860, and that 1891 will sur
pass in plenty any year that preceded it.
Mr.. Moody advises farmers to dam ev-
cry draw that can be used for reservoir
purposes, and save the water from run
ming away in the streams.-St. Joseph

ancestral graves; therefore it is not
surprising that childlessness should be
regarded almost as crime. To secure
q 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 a living. When the daugh-
ters are married oil certain por-
tion OF land is set aside for the par
ents and the rest is divided among the
sons. No part is given to 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 divorces in fact, this
is the only way separation can be Sc
cured without bitter fight, except in
cases where unfaithfulness is provable.

Mrs. Caroline A. Mason, author of "Do

song in 1869 when pupil in Bradford

she was young lady, heartsick and
signing for her Marblehead home. Her
father was DR.. Briggs, an esteemed and
able physician of Marblehead. One of
her sisters, Harriet, married the Rev.
David Stoddard, missionary of the
American board, and died in. foreign

written Harriet was teacher in the

A New Tail for His Cow.

Several weeks ago COW owned by a
well known gentleman employed in the
lower shops of Altoona, Pa, met with a
mishap. The animal was turned out of
the stable for exercise, but in short
time she was attacked by several dogs
They succeeded in getting hold of her
tail, and almost tore it out of the socket,
only short stub remaining. The ami
NAL was seriously disfgured, and the
owner conceived a novel idea of fixing
her up. He visited slaughter house
near by and secured new tail and
started for his home, happy over his
scheme to save his pet animal from un-
favorable comment.
He secured the necessary tools and set
to work. The stub and new piece were
carefully worked out into a good job of
dovetailing. He placed the ends to-
gether and they fitted like charm. The
joint was wrapped and tied with heavy
string.
All worked well for few days, but
the other morning he took the animal
out for stroll, met crowd of friends
and stopped to explain his patent. His
achievement was simply wonderful to
his hearers. But a moment later his
labor and idea were a thing of the past.
A large horsefy made its appearance
and perched upon the animals back.
The stub commenced to work and the
new end was thrown in the direction Of
the pest. Then it became detached and
landed around the neck of the inventor.
He pleaded with his friends to keep the
matter quiet, but it leaked out, and now
he is the subject of considerable fun at
the hands of his fellow workmen.
