American Women Need
Us Worse Than Hindus,

ST LOUIS. Aug 12-Miss Emily
Bissell American missionary to Hin
dustan, came to st. Louis to gather
new ideas on modern civilization to
help her in her work. She got them.
Here they are:
American women need missionaries
worse than the women of Hindustan.
The mode of dressing, particularly
low necks, tight skirts and funny hats,
would not be tolerated in India
Neither would India tolerate round
dances in which women and men en-
brace as they dance, Boarding house"
etiquette, nor the "emancipated WON
an" as she is seen in offices where she
works would not be tolerated.
Il have stood on streets before your
churches and watched the parade of
fashion as it filed in and l have said to
myself, How grotesque, how barbaric
how bizarre. India is commonplace
beside this said Miss Bssell.

Fred Cashon, Walter Tucker, Berry

ones to do it. Elgie said that he had

JAIL; HELD FOR ROBBERY
Three First District Boys Are Aagned Before United
States Commissioner Charge Of Having Blown Up the
Del Rio Post Office

Elgie Tucker, Walter Tucker and
Frank Cashon were arraigned before
United States Commissioner Minis,
Wednesday morning on the charge of
having dynamited the safe of the Del
Rio post office On the night of the
eighth of March.
Suspicion was attracted to them,
merely because Elgie fuckers inabil-
ity to keep his mouth shut, and the
most damaging evidence is a conres-
sion which Elgie is alleged TO have
made to Chas. Nash. During Nash s
conversation, Tucker interrupted the
witness telling him that he was swear
ing D. Lie, and Nash came back
with the remark that Tucker wouldn' It
say he was swearing lie if he had
him on the outside, but the officials
prevented anything more sensational
than word battle by preventing
Ticker with further liberties of
speech.
On the night of March Sth the post
office of Del Rio was entered, the safe
blown down through the floor and the
building practically wrecked. The ex-
plosion was heard by Frank Stokely
who gathered up some neighbors aud
went on tour of inspection. Some of
the neighbors did not care about
getting any too close to the building
and permitted the would be thieves to
escape. The tracks showed, plainly
that there had been two in the party,
and when Frank Stokely testified that
the shoes were a number six and a
number eight, Elgie Tucker took a
good look at his own. The shoes, too,
were of peculiar shape, one set being
blunt and the other with wide swing
ing toe and on the following day,
Stokely stated that he had seen shoes
which resembled the mark on the
person of Elgie' Tucker and Frank
Cashon.
Tucker aroused Stokely's suspicion
by asking Stokely why he had no,

H. r. Barnes, the detective worked
up the case. He received a converse.

Cashon answered question as TO when
he had seen the wrecked safe, with the
reply: "When it was blown up" He
was asked if Elgie Tucker was with
him and stated that he could not re.

proven.
