Srsorarkiptal A AR AN
chLEVALION OF WUMAR,
Fafil SYILL ASSERT HER RIGHE AND
HER POWER."
sGoed Created Man, Male and Female,
The Soul is a Dual (_.‘»n,*;mnlu, W hatever
the Sex.’
The above is the tripple heading of an
article by Mrs. E, 8. Stcwe, in the last
jsaue of the National Economist. Then
follows n very inte esting article—inter
sstivyg hecause it is a cood illustration of
Ihe extrenies to whigh misguided reason
will often carry its votaries.
The writer begins by saying: ‘‘One of
theleading and vital issues of the day is
the progressive elevation of woman.”
After. some sentences, in which she
says one must study the history of wo
mau o properly understand the subject,
<he neserts thatyThre woman of the past,
as every one fally knows, has been a
veritable slave.”
After referring to teachings from the
‘sacred desk’ on this subject, shie adds,
cMan's erroncousideas of the Bible and
mizapprehension of its true wmeaning has
becn the foundation of all of woman’s
woes, 1t bhas been the power by which
iie Lias held her in subjectionand caused
Lerdn suffering and sorrow to bow to
“hednovitable law of his ruling pas
sione,’’ :
That is, as we understand her, ‘where
the Bible has never been known or felt
there woman has no woes.
She next startles her readers with the
<tatement that “The Bible is purely a
“snjentific book.”
In the follcwing paragraphs she gets
amusing, they being scarcely surpassed
Ly the burlesque opation on “Woman’s
}{?f;le < written for the stage.
940 Bible is an allegorial picture of
Ihe truvail of the human soul, from its
comiecncement in Adam to its perfec
tion in Christ, and where indiviiaals are
mentioned, either as male or female, 1t
has reforence to a creative process, to
some principle or att: ibute of the soul,
and no reference whatever to any dis
vinction of either sex or individuals.
“(rodd created man, male ani female,
and in like manner he also created wo
ma 1 male and female. The human soul
is a dunal ereation, whatever the sex may
be, and the Bible, being a history of the
travail of the soul, treats upon the sub
ject of a man in this sense.
“#The account of woman, created from
¢he side or rib of man, signifies an ex
iension and higher unfoldment - .of the
dnal man, making him receptive ‘o high
er gruth. The meaning (in the Hebrew)
of woman is receptivity.
“Man has always been more logical in
his reasonings, had more strength of
purpose, more determination to consu
mate his plans, he is bold, defiant and
strong, a ruler over all weaker states:the
semale nature within mm has lain dor
mant, he has not been gentle, receptive,
loving, affectionate anl kind; he has not
been Jong-sutfering and patient as a wo
man; he has not cultivated that side of
his nature.
“On the other oand, woman has lack
ed the force of character, the will and
determination’ to rise. She has been
easily subdued and ens aved, if she had
been a christian woman she would have
misinterpreted Paunl's words, “Wives,
submit yourselves unto your husbands,”
and has meekly bowed to the willk of
stronzer character, becoming a slave ad
a dependent. She has been slow to cul
tivate that noble male principle lying
dormant within her soul.
“Woman, because of her receptivity
and teachableness, has been open to the
inspiration of a higher power, and the
creative angels have moved upon her
soul to strike for her freedom, to thie at
ter consternatiun of man, *who fears lest
~woman will grow bold, aggressive and
unwomanly, and lose her acquiescing
sweetness, She will lose her weakness
and dependence, and stamp the next
generation with a scorn for selfdom that
will, I trust, rescue the nation from her
present chains.”
We remind our readers that the above
is an article published last week and in
tended to be taken seriously. °
We thiuk that all such ‘“male” women
as she conld deliver themselves much
more briefiy and jus: as effectnaliy by
saying, ‘Any “female’’ woman that mar
ries a 'male’” man wilhpgly submits to

z /A NOFED INSURANCE FRAUD.
! [ife insurance companies have had a
g-?:!-. deal to coni v he way of
' foand. and som ¢i iwve fig
ured .in ot De WS ‘ i the
courts. One of the myst int iy of
| these, whieh huad its oyiz.n m iy yedis
lnt}.u, has just been revived by an impor
tant discovery of the detectives, who,
!h:nve long been at work on the case.
E.lu‘,m W. Hillmon, the hero and chief
!mnspir.xtor of the famous *“Hillmon
Lnsurance Swindle,” of Kansas, has been
tound. For fitteen years his relatives
ihuve been trying the courts to prove
him dead in ovder to collect about $40,-
000 msurance on his life. During all
these years the insurance companies
Iholding the policies have resisted the
}claim on the ground of fraud and con
spiracy, alleging that Hillmon was not
‘dead at all. The face value of the pol:
icies has more than been consumed in
cost of litigation, and the case has come
‘to rank as one of the most remarkable
and romantic in the history of life insu
rance frauds, The insurance was writ
ten in Kansas, and all the litigation has
‘been carried on in that state, but the
jm‘;nn]mnius ¢ mecerned are all located in
the BEast. These companies are the New
York Life, the Mutual Life, and the
Connecticut Mutual Life.
Hillmon was born in Indiana in 1845,
He was about thirty-four years old at
the time of his alleged d:ath near Medi
cine Lodge, Kan., in 1879, The proof
i“f his death was that he started from
Lawrence for Wichita with John H.
Brown, his partner, and tkat the next
Theard of him hie had been shot accident
‘ally by Brown ani buried near Medicine
} Lodge. His widow putin a claim for
{S4O,OUO and then for the first time Hill
-Imnn's neighbors in Lawrence, Kan.,
Jearned that he had his life insured. He
‘had always been a poor man and it was
“ascertyined that Levi Baldwin, of Ton
gohoxie, Leavenworth county, Kan., a
cousin of Hillmon’s wife and a close
Ifli\:ud of Hillmon, had taken out the
policies. Buldwin was a bapkrupt, and
filn; ¢ mpanies Interested in the insu
j rance concluded that only a lunatic or a
%shrcwd knnave would take out policies
?on which he could have no hope of pay
%ing the yearly premiums. The conclu
ision of the companies’ representatives
‘was that Hillmon was not dead, *hat a
;hmly had been substituted for his, and
‘that the whole transaction vas a swindle.
‘The case went into the courts, and it has
since then been obstinately contested,
The detectives employed by the inst
rance companies have never abandoned
the search, and they have just found
Hillmon in the flesh, alive and well, and
secured from him a confession. John
Brown had in the meantime been run
‘down by the detectives and finally con
fessed that Hillmon was alive, and had
‘murdered a man and substituted it as
his corpse. Hillmon, in his confession
swears that the murder was committed
by Brown. There was undoubtedly a
‘murder, and there will likely develop
out of it now a very interesting criminal
trial.

The Spring,
of all seasous in the year, is the one for
making radical changes in regaid to
to health. During the winter the sys
tem becomes to a certain extent clogged
up with was'e, and the blood loaced with
impurities, owing to lack of exercise,
close cohfinement in poorly ventilated
shops and houwes, and other eauses. Thi
is the cause of the dull, sluggish, tired
feeling so general at this seascn and
which must be overcome, or rize health
may be entirely broken dows. Hood’s
Sarsaparilla has attained the greatest
popularity all over the country as the
favorite spring medicine.. It expels the
accumulation of impurities through the

gives the blood the purity and quality
necessary to good health and overcomes
that tired foeling. -

Thomas Wheeler, a farm'r of Elim
neighborhood in Wa ren county, while
out doing some hauling a few days ago
with a yoke of oxen one of them became
sullen and laid down. All efforts to in
duce the animal to go proved fruitless.
At last Mr. Wheeler:concluded that he
would make a blast underthe ox, as he
had heard of sich a thing being an ex
cellent remedy. So he procured some
powder and placed it under the beast and
lighted it off. The explosion came, and,
to Mr. ANheeler's surprise, it not only
raised the ox from its resting place, but
