October %, 1886, was the daughter
Of old uncle John Shelton (deceased)
She had belonged to the Christian
Church for many years and left a
bright testimony that she was going
home where there will be no more
pain, sickness, or death. She wanted
all her children to prepare TO meet
her in heaven. She was such a wo-
man that she will be greatly missed
in the community where she lived,
for she was not backward in doing
anything she could in sickness or
death. She had been in bad health
for the past year, but had been bed
fast for the past three months with
consumption and heart dropsy. She
was the mother of eleven children,
nine living.
We miss thee from our home, dear
mother;
We miss thee from thy place,
A shadow DER our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine of thy face;
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest care;
Our home is dark without thee
We miss thee everywhere.
Earth has lost its look of gladness,
Heaven seems 10 us more bright
Since the spirit of our dear mother
Took its happy homeward fight.
And we long TO cross that river,
Long TO rest upon that shore.
There to see and know and love her,
With the Saviour. ever more.

NUsSEL PROPERTY OF
OWNER OF ITS HABITAT
U. s. Supreme Court Ruling in
Pe1niscot County Case Important
to Pearl Button Industry.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-The
fresh water mussel of the Mississippi
Valley. from whose shell is manu-
factured "pearl' buttons, is the
property of the owner of the land
through which flows the non-navi-
gable streams of its habitat. the
Supreme Court held today in case
brought by Benjamin. Gratz of st.
Louis against James S. Mckee and
others in Missouri.
The controversy attracted wide
attention because OF its Importance
in the button industry and brought
into court such questions as wheth-
er the mussel is a wild" animal
Justice Holmes, in deciding the
case. said mussels should not be
classed with wild birds and fish,
which may move beyond the juris-
diction of the owner of the land.
The lower court had held that
fishermen taking mussels from nom
navigable streams could be prose-
cuted as trespassers and the owners
Of the land through which the
stream flowed could recover damages
from those who purchased shells
from trespassers. This judgment
was affirmed by the Supreme Court
in principle.
Gratz, who resides in st. Louis,
sued Mckee, president of button
manufacturing company at Musca-
tine, Iowa, for $2S,29O damages for
the removal of 307 tons of mussels
dredged from Little River, in Penn
iscot county, where IT. ran through
GRATIS property.
The case was tried in Federal
Court in st. Louis and won by Nc
Kee on a decision that Gratz did not
prove ownership of the mussels. The
United States Circuit Court of APP
peals reversed the decision, thereby
reversing previous decision in a
similar case by the same court.

RUTH ST. DENIS AT
CAPE NOVEMBER ~
Famous Company Of Dancers Are
Sensation Of the Season.

Southeast Missourians who can
appreciate the beautiful in physical
art, are enthused over the appear
ance in Cape Girardeau Monday
night, Nov. %, of Ruth st. Denis.
Ted Shawn and the Denishawn dan
GERS. accompanied by quartet of in
strumentalists Of very high rank.
The Southeast Missourian will
present this unequaled attraction as
! its annual classic for appreciative
Southeast Missourians. Last year
| The Missourian presented Percy
Hemus in "Impresario" at the New
Broadway. 1t was voted one of the
most attractive entertainments ever
seen. In 1920 The Missourian pre-
sented Madam Schumann-Heink, the
worlds most popular singer, and
each season for several seasons the
st. Louis Symphony orchestra was
the offering. Hundreds of South
east Missourians enjoyed these won
derful programs.
The ST. Denis company consists Of
Miss st. Denis, greatest of classical
dancers; Ted Shawn, Of equal re-
nown; nine Denishaw dancers
headed by Miss Martha Graham; an
instrumental quartet of violin, 'celli,
flute and piano; stage directors, cos
tuners, etc., the company number
ing about 20.
All the scenery, drapings, stage ef-
fects, electrical appliances, and un-
lquestionably the most beautiful CO.'S
tunes ever seen for such an enter
tainment, are carried. The stage is
set completely different several times
and there are dozen or more cos
tune changes.
The dances of the Orient and the
1 Occident, the classic dances of the
age, all in the most gorgeous cos.
tunes amid the most beautiful
settings that money and artistic
minds could provide. And then an
instrumental quartet that in itself
would be an attraction of the high
est order. No wonder the st. Denis
organization is attracting record
crowds in the largest cities and get
ting enthusiastic endorsement from
all critics.
The st. Denis company will give
the same program in Cape Girardeau
that it is giving elsewhere. No more
and no less, is the absolute guaran-
tee Southeast Missourians who ap-
preciate art, music grace and ele-
gance, have feast in store for them
Reserved seats will be placed on sale
at The Missourian Office Monday
morning, Nov. 20. The St. Denis
company will appear in Cape Girar-
deau Monday evening, Nov. 81.
