MASQUERADING AS A BOY.
Girl in Washington Whose story IL

WASHINGTON. D. c., November O.
tSpeciaL)--A young girl attired in boy.
clothing entered the shop of tonsoriat
artist in Southeast Washington last
night and paid for hair cut. The girls
face did not arouse the suspicious of tha
barber. but before his work was finished
her voice caused him to believe his Gus
toner was of the fair sex. A policeman
was summoned and he decided that the
BARRIERS surmise was correct. He took
the child TO police Headquarters, where
she told a sad story.
When first taken into custody the girl
gave fictitious name. and said she was
from Chicago. 1t was only after she had
been closely questioned that she consent
ed to reveal her identity. She gave her.

she said. she was the prosecuting wit
ness against man who was tried for an
alleged attempt to commit felonious as
sault. According to her statement the
man was sentenced to the Maryland pen-
ltentiary to serve twenty-one years. Dur
ing the investigation and trial OF the CASE
she gained unpleasant notoriety. and re-.
Gently she concluded that she would leave
the part OF the country where she was
well known and make an effort to earn
livelihood in this city. She thought
she could do better by masquerading al
boy than II she wore feminine attire.

OMAHA, NEB., November 6.-(Special.)
death was caused by accidental asphyx-
iation, due to their own carelessness
This is the verdict rendered this eve
ming by the coroner's jury sitting over the
bodies Of Rev w. T. Rabe and Miss Au-
gusta Busch, who were found yesterday
in the pastors study of the German Bap
fist church, clasped in a loving embrace,
both dead.
death was due to the wrath Of an OUT
ragged God" is the verdict which the
Christian people of the city have rendered.
death was the punishment inflicted for
this last act of many similar infractions
of Gods Seventh Commandment, is the
verdict of the very few who have seen
what Rev. Mr.. RABIES papers contained.
From the minister's trunk the coroner
has taken and concealed from prylns
eyes a big batch of letters from women,
members of congregations over Whlch
Rabe has presided In the East. Express
sions in those letters show conclusl' 81
that the minister's relations with the
writer's were not confined to spiritual con-
ISOLATION.
An immense crowd damned the coro-
ner's reception room this afternoon,
among which the faces of women were
strkingly prominent.
The coroner selected the jury and took
it to the church. There the scene, as
found by Officer Cullen, Detective Helt-
felt, and Janitor Berndes. was eSempll-
fled before the iury's eyes and minds,
In consequence, when the case was for
mally called, the crowd found nothing
more than a recital by the officers OF the
finding of the bodies in the church study,
the testimony of a half dozen witnesses
as to the previous good character OF both
of the deceased, and a technical eAplana-
ton of several physicians as to the cause
Of the death.
1t now appears that, wishing to pre-
vent any witnesses to their actions, one
of them turned off the gas. The Jet IS
placed SO close to the cock jet OF the
small gas stove that careless or excited
person could not fail by contact OF the
hand to turn on the gas entering the
stove. This accident occurred, and the
esca ping gas overcame the couple
This testimony, with reading OF MISS
Busch's autobiography, written January
Is. 1898. when she came to Omaha to work
as missionary, concluded testimony,
and resulted in jury's verdict quoted.
