Kansas, City, Mo..Nov. 14.—A ro- mance in real life, and one of unus ual interest developed here to day when Maurace Scholl announced his intention of returning to Germany to marry Fraulein Marguenta Miller, a daughter of the Burgomaster of a town near Stuttien. It was thirteen years ago that the couple were be- trothed. Oneevening asthey were re turning from the opera,Edmond Von Wandel, an army officer, insulted the | prospective bride. Scholl challe him toa duel. The combat occur red the next morning. Pistols were used and Von Wandel through the heart and iustantly kill | ed. Scholl was badly wounded but. managed to escape. Since that time has exile from his native land and has wandered over pretty nearly ail the civilized world and finally settled down in this city six years ago where he secured employment in the city engineer's office. He had a lit tle money then and when Kansas | City experienced its great boom he invested it in real estate and vealiz- ed a comfortable fortune.

Ross to Gov. Francis. Austin, Tex., Nov. 14.—Gov. Fran cis of Missouri, some days ago wrote to Gov. Ross suggesting the practi cability of an interstate immigration | convention to be held by the states} of Missouri, Arkansas, Texas and | Kansas. Gov.

In regard to details cou.- cerning representation, you illustrate my views fully enough to justify a concurrence in your suggestion, and as to the time and place I will defer | that to the pleasure of yourself and | other executives, stipulating only for a reasonable accessibility and a date not earlier than the middle of January.

Why is it that under the weight of | the enormous armies of Europe the | accumulation of wealth still goes on? ' How is it that the life of the people is ' not exhausted and the resources of the governments woefi reduced; that the growing debts incurred by mili- tarism have not become too grievous to bear and that gaunt impoverishment | has not commanded the abatement of the devouring extravagance of army establishments? The answer is, first, ntion of modern inven- for travel and the diffusion of intelli- gence, information in making the best of the resources of nature, and con- trivances for developing all the boun- ties of earth, have given the world new sources of wealth, and altogether | bestowed upon the industry by which millions of men approach omnipotence profitable a broader application. There is a greatly enhanced ability of the people to work to advantage. A vast portion of field labor in West- ern Continental Europe is done by women, and when one sees, though they are of bronzed complexions and n hionable appear- they are, it does nat their lot, hard as it is, is quite so deplorable as the surface indications would declare it. The mothers of the masses of the common soldiers of Germany work in the fields are excellent h st hands, patient, faithful and enduring. Though poor, they ure strong, and not subjected to neuralgic headaches or liable to nerv- | ous prostration upon slight provoca- Pp ! g tion. It has been picturesquely said that in Europe the men and the horses go to war, and the women and cows stay at home and do the work. This is one of the features of converting a nation into an army. Some one has to till the soil and win the bread. This is the be- ginning of military glory. The bril- liant officers promenading, wearing spurs and swords, have tained. They contrast vividly with teams of cows pushing with a bar un- der their horns light wagons with loads of hay or vegetables, or with the peasant women, their burdens on their heads. A pair of cows driven by | a@woman to a plow or wagon would | excite astonishment and possibly the wrath of any rural community in this country, but the sight is a very com- mon one in Germany and in France— | the nations armed to destroy each other—and the work that is accom- | plished in the fields and on the roads A Proniuent Misseuri Farmer Assas- sinsted While Soundly sieeping Mexico, Mo., Nov. 17.—E. a.
