NOTORIOUS MEN

Only one Left of the James Gang toGreet the Younger Boys

From a rolling conversation withFrank Tames I learned that when theYounger boys came out of the Minne ¬

apolis prison after putting in a quar ¬

ter of a century there that they will

find on the outside scarcely asingleone of the old crowd that went up anddown the line with them in their boy ¬

hood days

C W Quantrell the noted leader of

the famed Quantrells baud started on

the Blackwater on his raid into Kan-

sas at the time Lawence Kan was

sacked and over 100 citizens killedThat was late in the fall of 1863 andsoon after Quantrell was killed in Ken ¬

Lucky

Five years later Lieutenant Lull aChicago policeman went nut into Mis ¬

souri for the purpose of making freewarren of the members of Quantrellsband He killed John Younger theoldest of the famous brothers A few

days later while riding out on horse

back Lull was shot and killed from am-

bush

¬

and his body sent back to Chica ¬

go for burial Bud McDaniels one of

the most noted of the gang who rob ¬

bed the Kansas Pacific train at Mun

cis seven miles from Kansas City was

hunted to the woods riddled withIbuckshot by the pursuing partybrought back and died in the Law ¬

rence jail-

Thompson McDaniete while robbingthe Huntington W Va bank awyIback in the sixties was shot and killed

by the pursuing party

Bob Ford who killed Jesse James in1882 died of consumption and some

say remorse a year ago

Charlie Ford his accomplice w asshot and killed two years later in a sa ¬

loon row at Crccde Oil

Wood Hite who was the leader atthe Glendale Winstju and Blue Cutrobberie fled to KentncKy after theBlue Cut robbery biled auotUccrIthere returned to Ray couuty Mo

wherein turn he was killed by Bob

Ford and Kick Little r

Bill Anderson another prominentmember of the James gang returnedto Ray county in 1868 and was killednear Richmond Jim Inman as fear¬

less and desperate a man as Quantrellbad in his commond escaped from Mis ¬

souri after the Blue Cut but a littlelater was killed in Kentucky

Andy McGuire was arrested in Jack ¬

son county for participating in theRichmond bank robbery and taken tothat point One night a mob tookhim from the jail and hanged him tothe highest tree

Ol Shepherd was with his brother atthe Russellville bank robbery He fled

to Missouri from Kentucky and was

killed near Lees Summit in thisState by the detectives who were fol ¬

lowing him

Jack Keene was arrested for partici ¬

pating in the Huntington W Va

bank robbery when Tom McDaniels

was killed He is only known by hisalias Jack Keene and is serving a long

term for his work

George Shepherd who with hisbrother 01 and several of the gaDgIrobbed the Russellville Kv bank in63 and served a term for his act

claimed the proud distinction of once

having shot Jesse James in the backof the head during a quarrel is now

said to be living near Kansas City

Jim Cummings was raised in Clay

county Mo and joined the gang in

1870 He was at the Glendale robbery

but not at Winston or Blue Cut Hewas chased out of Missouri and hasnever been heard of since

George Todd who was considered one

of Quantrells most daring men was

killednear Independence during Pricesraid by Union soldiers

Ed Miller a brother of Clell Millerwho was killed at the NorthfieldMinn affair joined the James

gang In 1877 He was Inat the lustGlendale robbery in 1381 Ire was kled by nnoofthe ga m crier tbn hill trtherpiiltatis wild

So it will be seen that the only one

of the old crowd left on earth Is FrankJames staid and sober old citizen ofthis town who dreads notoriety andwho asks nothing of bis fellow menthese days but to be let aloneKans-as

Sixty Years a Trhmp

John Lynch aged 80 who died theother day used to boast that be was

the oldest tramp in the United Statestold some of his experiences to a few

friends jnst before he died

Lynch came to the United Statesfrom Ireland 60 years ago He said insumming up his long life as a hobo

It is better after all to work thanto beg But after a man gets a startof 10 or 20 years as a tramp he makesup his mind that it is then too late tobegin a new life of labor I began

tramping because I was disappointedI just wandered about not caring whatbecame of me

Why I couldnt get sick couldnttake cold couldnt freeze or starve Idont say I tried to I got careless thevery first year of my wandirings Itmade no difference to me whether Iwas shaved or well dressed No one

knew me Sleeping on the ground nev-

er¬

gave me rheumatics In the sum-

mer¬

nights I took asvira In mill damscourse but never bathed in winter

It is a great mistake for men to chilltheir blood or make it too hot by coldor hot baths

Waiting is the best exercise of allColdcoarse eating is the best for manGenerally tramps live toa good old ageThis is helped by their being free frommental cares Every tramp I ever metIin my GO years experience always hada regular circle to swing around in Iam now ulkinir of a tramp in I lie bui-ne for yea is In the circle he swiigsin be Isjams to know every body worthknowing and he is never in want ofatieg or a place tu sleip

In summer the best place to rustand scep is in the woods 1 never Clfed to sleep in tramp beds provided atfarmhouses Give me a straw stackin the dead of winter I always avoid

a haymow There is a lifegivingsomething in straw that builds a manup

Ob yes I drank snnc liquor in myItime As iiviu grows old he needs exItra nourishment and stimulantTramps when they wear thin clotheslook cold but they aint They do notwant overcoats But a halfdozenvests is nothing

I have no pointers to give only tblsIlet all young men avoid tramp life Tohave the pity und the fcarof the peo-

ple is an awful burden To know andfeel that you are only a worm Is sad

While tramps become hardened andhave no silfrespect yet there aretimes when the toughest men thinkover things ond get ashamed Afterall my experience I can truly say thatit is a lie that the world owes everyman a living Every man owes theworld the price of his daily existenceThat is the truth And If a man be ¬

haves himself and dues what is rightthat price will be dead easyNew-York Sun

A Pen Picture of Senator Deboe

To what complexion has the Republican party in Kentucky come when itwill sit silent under the domlnatItm0the impossible Deboe by virtue oj good

luck and audacity a member of the US Senate The leaders who made Re ¬

publicanism respectable the old daishave been thrown aside that he mayfor six years more pose In the great-

est deliberative body on earth as themost monumental ass that ever strayedfrom a barnyard If intelligence were

an epidemic with norms so thick thatthey could be sawed into paying blocks

Deboe could not catch a gleam If anidea were by chance to enter his headit would starve to death before Itcoulrlmake the journey through the desertwaste where the gray matter is found

in the ordinary human skull If Dar ¬

win is right and no earnest studentcan read his Descentof Man withoutgiving his theory serious consideration I

Deboe should now be banging by hiS

tall from the branches of a coacoanuttree in Central Africa Instead of be ¬

spattering the walls of the UnitedStates Senate with mangled parts of

speechHis

address on the Nicaraugua Canawas the vaporing of an idiot The tra¬

ditional bull in the China shop wasgentlemanly in bit conduct compared

with what Deboe did to his mothertongue in that harsh of stolen ideas anduutelligible glbbealsh lIe wouH notknow a past participle if he met one in

the road and if some one were to men-

tion

¬

a split infinitive In his presence hewould want to know what district thegentleman represented The densityof thss fellows ignoaance is so greatthat it can not be measured A geol

gist would have to cut through a sub-strata of dullness so wide and deep thathe would find in the palezoic debristraces of the mammoth and Dodo birdand other extinct species If Deboecould be mummified as he is in the fulllower and radiance of his idiocy hewould be tho coos valuable asset In

pos cwlnn of the National Museum

From the Sils of his Nil 11 sLoe > tothe crown of his No 4 hat theres notan inch of him that is not soakrd withconceit fie Is entirely satisfied withhimself He can look wise and knowless than anything yet di covered withthe ability to talk And this is the in ¬

spired statesman in whose behalf theNational administration is wreckingthe Republican party in Kentucky He

must be returned to the United StatesSenate at all hazards A reunited and

determined Democracy will save theStile that disgrace DafTE OSullivans Free Lane

Your Boy

Father if you have a good moral in-

dustrious

¬

boy the chances are tbat you

do not fully appreciate his true worthIf you have such a boy some day

pause on the street and take a look atsome boy you know to have grown upin idleness and vice lounging aroundthe streets without any object or aimin the world except to finally fool some

innocent unsuspecting giddy girl intomarrying him Then go directly be ¬

fore your mind hiss wandered into acareless matter of course mood andtake a look at your own boy whom you

will find hard at work in workinghours a bright open countenance witha view of making a man of himselfThen have the courage and franknessto step up to tbatboy and say Son Iam proud of you and your mother Is

even happier over your habits andmanners than 1 am for a motherslove and appreciatoh beats all else1Father if you hue a bad boy first askyourself what is tne cause of his condi-

tion

¬

then go to work to devise some

means to at least partially rectify thetrouble Perhaps youjnay be more atfault for the boys condition than anyone else Father associate with yourboy never shun him I always feel

like taking off my hat when I meet agood moral Industrious boy we needmore of them in the worldEx
