BETTE SRA CASE.
Peculiar Case Pending In the state
Supreme Court.

JEFFERSON Cry, Mo-, Jan. T.
Attorney f. w. Lehman, of the
Wabash, and J. M. Barker for the
plaintiff, have just completed their
arguments in the Supreme Court CT
a case possessing some novel Tea
lures. 1t is an action for damages
to the extent of $50, 900, and Miss
Bette SRA, of Montgomery County,
is the plaintiff and the case was
tried at Mexico. A few years ago
she was criminally assaulted in
Montgomery County by a saloon
keeper named Dusenberry, since
convicted and sentenced to thirty
years il the p~enitentiary. 1t appears
that she bought a ticket over the
Wabash for a small town in Mont
gomery County, where she then re-
sided. She took the express train
instead of the local, and learned after
she had started that the nearest
stopping place to her station was
ten miles distant. She got off at
Montgomery City, and while wan
dering around in the night looking
for a place, fell into the clutches of
Dusenberry. After he was tried and
convicted and while his case was
pending in the Supreme Court he
went to st. Louis and secured en-
ployment as a street railroad con-
ductor.
Miss SRA holds that the Wabash
is responsible for the outrage mas
much as the train did not stop at
the station called for on her ticket.
# the conductor had let her off at
her home, the assault, she AYERS,
would not have occurred. She lost
the case in the trial court and her
counsel took an appeal. The case
will be decided in a couple of
months.

To Break Into Jail.

1t is usual to hear of people trying
to break out of jail, but those who
want to break into Jail are few and
far between. Mr.. Wilcox, of near
Rush Hill, was fined not long since
for disturbing the peace. He came
to Mexico a day or so ago and pre-
sented himself to Prosecuting Attor-
ney JIG. Trimble with the statement
that he wanted to be put into jail. He
seemed to think he would like Sher-
iii Stephens board that it was the
cheapest and best way to pay his
fine. He said he could make more
in jail than he could out of it. Mr..
Trimble referred him to the Justice
of the Peace for his commitment, as
the county boarding house does not
take boarders unless they have the
proper references.

Death of Judge CIark's Sister.

Mrs. P. Worden died last night
at the family residence on Spring
Street, after a lingering illness of
several months. She bore her
afiiction with fortitude worthy
of a Christian. Death is always
sad, and yet there is the ''let me
go" of the soul that finds a Joy in
the prospect of a life beyond the
grave. Mr.. and Mrs. Worden
came to Eureka Springs about four
years ago from Minneapolis, Mimi,
and in their residence here both have
made many friends, all Of whom
will regret Mrs. Worden's demise.
She was kind and gentle. in her
disposition, and not only hadthe love
of her friends, but the respect and
admiration of all her acquaintances.
The remains were taken to Mime
apolis for interment. The consola-
ton of real sympathy, on the part
of the many friends of Mr.. Worden,
is extended to him in this his
bereavement.
Mrs Worden was a sister of Judge

TOO Thick 10 Last.
From the jefferson City Tribune.

FROM the JeueFSoH Iity lrlpuue.
Last Monday, in Mexico, a quiet
little comedy was put upon the
boards. 1t has had a successful
run all week, but now that the
Thirty-seventh General Assembly has
been successfully organized and the
business of legislation is fairly start
ed, will the comedy be continued?
The answer lies with Dromio Bob
White Of the. Ledger and Dromio
Sam Cook of the Intelligencer
Time out of mind they have been
pitted against each other in local
and state battles, and each has won
enough contests to equalize matters.
For the first time they have worked
for one man. Monday they started
for the Capital to work for John
W. Jacks. They rode in the same
car coming down; they crossed
the Missouri river in the same skiff;
their two grips were carried by one
porter, and at the hotel d thought
less clerk assigned them to the same
loom. Will this pleasing condition
of affairs continue, now that the en-
Urgency no longer exists, or will
there be a dissolution of partnership
between these two well-known dro-
mics?

horse feed. | could not use your

do your work, if / had no bad luck,

THURSDAY, JANUARY II.
E, W. STEPHENS FOR GOVERNOR.

The grand commonwealth of Mis-
souri, Is proud of her Governors, past
and present. Governor D. R. Fran
els has just completed a splendid adj
ministration which is a credit to our
grand State. Governor w. j. Stone,
one ofthe brightest statesmen OF Mis-
souri,, has just been inaugurated and
will be found ranking among the very
best executives Missouri ever had. In
this connection it is not out of place
to suggest the name of a manin every
way equipped to be the NEXT Governor
of this great State. Hon. E.W .Steph-
ems, of the Columbia Herald, is hon
est and capable IA mano of brilliant ex-
~ecutive ability, having every qualifi-
cation to make Missouri as good g
Governor as we have ever had. Mr..
Stephens record as a private citizen
is above reproach. His public acts
have been in thorough accord with
the very best interests of the State.
He lives in that portion of Missouri
which gives the Democratic majority
and which should be more often rec
ognized. His location, though, is a
secondary matter compared with his
qualifications forthis highest office in
the gift of our people. 1t is, perhaps,
early to suggest candidates for office
to be filled four years hence; at the
same time the people begin to think
and talk about the next Governor as
o as the present one is inaugural
ed. E.W. Stephens is the peer of any
man in Missouri and his record, pub
lie and private, will bear the closest
inspection. His work for the party
has been effective, unselfsh and wor-
thy of reward. With his name at the
head of the ticket in 1896 Missouri
will not only bury the Republican
party within its borders, but will en-
tomb it so deep that it will have to
scratch out on the other side.

The World Grawing Worse Instead
or Better-A Few Figures Given.

1t is very evident from the record
of murders, suicides, hangings and
lynchings printed by the Chicago
Tribune that the world is not getting
better-at least 1925 record shows
this fact. That the list in each in
stance grows rapidly is to be expect
ed, as the population of the country
is increasing at the rate of about
$780, 600 a year, and the fullness
with which news is collected is con
stantly becoming greater. But even
these two causes hardly account for
the increase. The deaths by dis
asters we're also larger, but the list
and amount of embellishments are
smaller-the only gratifying feature
in the whole record.
The number of murders commit
ted in 1892 reached 6792, as COM
pared with 1906 in 1891, 1890 in
1890 and 1867 in 1880. This shows
a discouraging increase IN crime.
1t is nearly double what it was three
years ago, is 1902 larger than was
reported two years ago, and shows
an increase of $3.50 over one year
ago. This is certainly out of pro-
portion to the growth in popula-
ton. The causes for which these
murders were committed are CLASH
fled as follows:

In view OF this great increase In
the number of murders it is not re-
assuring to learn that the number of
judicial hangings has decreased.
There were only 107 in the whole
country in 1892 as compared with
1913 in 1891 and 102 in 1890. If
the population of the country was
about 65,OOO, 900 last year, every
man, woman and child had one
chance in 81 900 of being murdered,
and every murderer had one chance
in sixty-three and one half of being
hanged after he had committed capt.
tai crime. Suicide is increasing as
rapidly as murder in this country.
There were 1850 last year as COM
pared with 1881 in 1891. The
causes are given is follows: De-
spondency, 2463; Unknown, 694;
Insanity, $40; Domestic infelicity,
226 Liquor, 15;Disappointed love,
249; Ill health, 27S; Business losses,
55. In hurrying themselves into
eternity 1900 of these suicides met
death by shooting, 1910 by poison,
COS by hanging, 396 by drowning,
319 by thr%oat-cutting, 81 by throw
ing themselves before locomotives,
Sc by jumping from windows, SO
by stabbing, Is by burning, 6 pre-
ferred starving, and the same num-
Der took the dynamite route, while
/ each chose freezing, a trip-hammer
or beating his head against a stone
wall. .
