Accomplished Mrs. Tel sono.

Mrs. Tel Sono is bright little Jap.
anese lady who has won considerable
distinction as temperance lecturer,
lawyer and missionary worker. She
belongs to n high-caste family in Toxic
where she was educated and studied
law, being the first Japanese woman to
ever take up that profession. Being so
unfortunate as to have drunken hus-
band Mrs Tel Sono resolved to get rid
of him by coming to America, which
she did, making her first appearance in
this country at the annual convention
of the Worlds Woman's c. T. U. in
Boston last autumn, where she entered
the field of temperance workers. She
is now travelling and lecturing on tenn.
perance and recently spoke in Wash
ington city, 1t is said of her that she is
really an interesting speaker, and while
her English is bit choppy, her quaint
expressions increase rather than de-
tract from her lectures. Besides being
an enthusiastic temperance worker, she
is an ardent Christian and a good ex.
horter. When lady was presented
whose friend she knew she kissed her
and said Praise the Lord" When
she was through her lecture she held
a regular reception, when all had
chance to greet her. She is an amiable
and intelligent little lady, and evidently
is very much in earnest in her temper

is IT NOT FREE TRADE7

David 4. Wells Letter to Mr.. Springer
shows the Real Inwerdntss of Tariff
"Heform."
II any one has honestly had any
doubts as to the true meaning of the
present tariff reform" movement they
should be dispelled by Free Trader
David A. Wells recent letter to Chair
man Springer indorsing the piecemeal
plan of tariff destruction. No one
doubts that Mr.. Wells is mn out and out
free trader The fact that he approves
Mr. Springer's method ought in itself to
arouse the suspicion of those who be.
lieve that the proposed policy of the
present ways and means committee is
one OF free trade. But the language in
which the approval is given reveals
more explicitly the desire of the demo.
cratic majority for free tsade.
Mr.. Wells points out that Sir Robert
PEEL who was mainly instrumental in
getting Richard Cobden's idea enacted
into British law, thus foisting their
present free trade policy upon the En-,
glish people, began exactly as Chair
man Springer proposes to begin-name.
ly, by introducing individual bills at.
| lacking separate items in the existing
tariff. That is the way the great En-
gllsh statesman led the free trade forces
to victory. Mr.. Springer is following
his example. Peels watchword, "Di.
vide and Conquer" has been adopted by
the dominant wing of the free trade
party in congress-
Many honestly deluded voters have
found fault with us for insisting all
along that the policy commonly called
tariff reform" is free trade policy
pure and simple. Because the leaders
OF the movement did not demand the
abolition of all tariffs they were not de-
handing free trade, was the argument
used in refutation of our charges We
pointed out that if Golden himself were
alive and guiding the enemies of pro-
lection in this country he would not
advise any other course than that which
the tariff 'reformers" have been fol-
lowing for the last five or six years.
Yet no one would doubt that Golden
was free-trader or that his aim was
free trade. So when we saw the mod.
ern tariff ''reformers" taking the only
practicable road to free trade we called
them free traders and exposed their
hypocrisy. 1t was difficult to convince
many of the soundness of our position
in face of reiterated denials from an
army of partisan demagogues. But
when so radical free-trader as David
A. Wells approves of the tariff re
form" method on the ground that it is
exactly the method through which pro
lection was supplanted by free trade ii
England, it must be a dull democra'
who does not distinguish the free
traders savage teeth and claws beneath
his reform" lamb skin.

dainty that no fly, spider, or speck OF
dust is ever to be found in them; but if
the housekeeper obtain these things by
the loss of her temper, if they rob her
of time for recreation, for reading and
for prayer, she has sold her birthright
for very poor mess of pottage.
1t is the custom with these Pennsyl.
vania mothers to give to their daugh-
tiers while still children room to clean
every day, in order that they may early
learn how to sweep, dust, wash win
dows, and in thousand ways wage
warfare against dust, warfare which
is expected TO last all through their
lives.
Every careful mother, of whatever
rank or race, is DESTROYS that her daugh-
ter shall be good houselleeper; if she
does not actually clean her dwelling
with her own hands she must know
how to direct others to do it.
But how many girls remember that
to each one of them has been given a
dwelling, which is entrusted to her ex-
elusive care, and which no one but her.
self can cleanse and keep in order?
1t matters little whose hands sweep
or dust the room in which she sleeps
and eats. But that inner chamber in
which the soul dwells she alone can
keep in order.
Does she examine it every morning,
to sweep out the vulgarity. the malice,
the indolent Indifference to God and
His truth which she may find there?
She is watchful through the day to
keep all filth and poisonous infection
from her parlor and chambers. Does
she shut out as carefully all unclean-
ness and contagion from that hidden
place within?
She does not open her house at night
for noxious insects and foul birds to
harbor in it. Does she thrust out with
equal zeal all trivial thoughts and gos.
sip, with their malignant sting, from
that most secret chamber?
She may live in a hut or palace.
But that place in which her soul dwells
is unseen by mortal eye. 1t is her work
to keep it clean and pure as long as life
lasts. When her body is carried out
dead her neighbors will enter and see
her earthly house. But God alone, look
ing upon that secret dwelling, will
Judge what her soul and life have been

Physical growth proceeds according

He who submits to be so nodded by his
associations as to be shaped into their

THE SOULS DWELLING.
1t Can BE Kept in Order by No One But
Yourself.


Farmers wives in the middle states,
descended from the Pennsylvania
Dutch, are noted for their excessive
neatness of their housekeeping. 1t is
said to be not an unusual thing for one
of these matrons, when she feels her
last hour approaching, to make tour
of the house, seeing with her own eyes
that every room is swept, busted and
garnished for the eyes of the strangers
who may come to the funeral.
A housewife who died lately in New
England is said to have added economy
to this painful neatness. Lay me out
in the Kitchen" she whispered with
her last breath. 1.-The bearers would
muddy the parlor carpet"
Cleanliness is undoubtedly close at
tendant upon godliuess, but many good
women, in their love for the one, are in
danger of installing it for the other.
1t is good and creditable thing to
have well-swept carpets and rooms so

They Will Go.

Springfield Democrat:
At the regular company meeting of
the Springfield Rifles Monday night
two letters were read, one from Col.
William X. Caffee, Carthage, Mo-,
and one from Adjutant GeneralJ. A.
Wickham, Jefferson City, urging the
necessity of the Chicago detail hav-
ing their arms in good order and re-
commencing that the belts and cart
ridge boxes be treated with harness
dressing and the brass plates and the
arms receive a thorough cleaning with
some kind Of polish. General Wick
ham is very anxious to have the
troops appear well and will spare no
pains to secure that end.

ceived by Captain A. E. Finley from
Colonel Cafiee stating that he had a let
ter from General Wickham stating

CROSSING THE BAR.

The following is one Of Mr.. Tennyson's
latest compositions, and was sung at his
funeral YESTERDAY:
Sunset and evening star
Aud clear call for me
And may there he no moaning of the bar
When put out 10
But such tide moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam
When that which drew from out the bOundless
deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening he'll
And after that the DARK
And may there he no sadness Of farewell
When I embark.
For though from out our bourne OF time and place
The flood may hear me FIR,
hope To my Pilot face To face
When I have crost the bar.

in the following card:
"The people ofGeorgia have spoken
and they declare in no uncertain
terms that the Peoples party move
ment in Georgia is an utter failure and
l bow to their decision. l shall not
forsake my convictions because they
are defeated at the polls, but it Seems
to me after honest reflection that it il
worse than foolish to remain in the
field when there is no result possible
but overwhelming defeat. If, in the
future, nay judgment becomes salts
fed that in the democratic party i
the hope for the South, it shall have
my cordial support"

Gen. Weaver thought he would
please his audience by pitching into
bankers-hence he pitched headlong.
So far as Sedalia is concerned, she is
proud of her banks and her bankers.
The former are as solid as the rock OF
Gibraltar, and among the latter are
numbered our most enterprising, lib.
eral and staunch citizens. What
would Sedalia be without them? II
was on line, however, with his other
very incorporate remarks. So far as
craftsmanship is concerned. General
Weaver is distinguished failure, and
barely reaches the dignity of a ward
politician.

\ haif-hearted and unoreanized
body of men and boys made Il faint
attempt last night TO secure possession
of the negro who yesterday attempted
rape. 1t was their intention To eie-
waite his BODY some feet in the air by
means Of a hempen cord. The firm
ness of the officers and the persuasive
elOquence of Prosecuting Attorney
Longan interferred with their plans.
The negro is this morning thankful
for life, even if liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness are not his to enjoy.
1t is well that it was only feint.
The second, sober thought, even OF
those engaged in the attempt, would
condemn such measures. Sedalia has
fair name with the outside world,
and the unlawful taking of life would
bring blot that years would require
to efface. Let the law take its course.
If the negro is guilty he will be pun
ished-most severely punished. The
enormity of the crime itself protests
against any leniency, and the juries
of Pettis county are not composed of
the kind of material that would trife
in such grave matter.
