MY BABY The aCil mother of the President Is re pmterl to have exclaimed a? aliove upon hearing tlie news of his attempted assassination. Why shu 1 tliev kill my baby ? for he seems the same to me. At when, in ihe morning twilight, I tossed him on my knee. And sowed for him hopes to blossom when lie should heeome a man. And dreamed for him such a future as only a mother can. T looked ahead to th" noon-time with proud but trembling joy ; I had a vision or splendor for my sweet, britrht-eved bov : Hut little motion I fancied that when he had cained renown, I'ase Envy's poisoned bullet wou'.d suddenly strike him down. Why should they want to kill him? Because lie had cut his way Through Poverty's sloomj- woodland out into the open day. And sent a shout of pood cheer to those who were vet within, That honor is born of striving, and Honesty ( jet can win ? ; Or was it because from boyhood he manfully i bated his breast, i To fioht for the poor and lowly, and aid the I sore oppressed ?

I The recent train robbery on the Chicago and Pock Inland Railroad, near Kansas City, tuiiiilit forth the inevitable announcement from Chicago that the "James hoys" did it, and that Piiikerton's detectives knew al1 : about it and wore about to capture these no torious outlaws. Whether the robbery ot the Rock Island train was the work of these men, or whether, like two or three similar train robberies, It was the work of the des perate gang of loafers and "hoodlums" which infet the border near Kansas City, is a question not easy of solution at this dis tance. The telegraphic announcement that the "James boys" had appeared in their old haunts in Clay county, Missouri, and had successfully stopped anil robbed a train, re calls to mind many incidents and details con nected with their career that are interesting. The lives of these two men, for they are no longer boys, would excel in staitling detail and absorbing interest the story of Claude Duval, Dick Turpi n, Robin Hood and La fitte ail combined. Their daring exploits and remarkable escapes from death or cap ture would read like some wild romance were they properly compiled, and this brief sketch will undoubtedly prove of interest to our readers. The ' James boys" are the last of the Missouri guerrillas of the war on the bonier the only two men who followed Quantrel to Lawrence, Kas., or Rill Ander son to the slaughter pt Centralis, Mo., who have never laid down their arms. Defying '.iovei nor's prjclamat ions, Sheriff's possies and public opinion they have kept up a war on their own account for twenty years. W HY THEY M AKE WAR IPOS MANKIND. The cause of their uncompromising career of crime, blood and violence originated dur ing the fust year of the war. They were honest, hard-working farmers' boys when the war broke out, aim resided with their father and mother on a farm near Kearney, a few nii esfrom Kansas Cily. A party of Union militia caught and hung their father and whipped Jesse, who was a pale, effeminate look'ng boy, until he was senseless, because lie could not tell the militia of the hiding place of his brother Frank, who was suspec ted of "bushwhacking." When Jesse re covered from the effects of this brutal treat ment, and had assisted his mother and sister to bury his murdered father, he mounted his horse and lode away to join his brother, and together they started forth on a career of ver.gt.ance such as was never before sur passed for duration and malignant earnest ness. The number of men killed by these boys during the twenty years they have been on the road will perhaps never be known. They boost of having killed the last one of the thuty-two men who murdered their fatii : er, anil since Pinkerton has commenced to i hunt them they have allowed none of hisde ; teciives to escape their blood thirsty ciutch ; es. During the war these two young boys j became the terror of the Kansas and Mis souri border. They were frequently wound ed, but appear to bear a charmed life. They sometimes led and sometimes followed in tueir nerce searcu ior lives. mi iiicin il leir fierce search for lives. With them it was kill, kill, kill, .now with 1'oinaexter m jn a week or send them their coffins. The North Missouri, then with Quantrel in Kan- j communication was published next day, and sas, sometimes with Dick Yager and Bill I Pinkerton replied by sending a fresh !. Amleison, all noted guerllillas of the fiercest j tachnient of spies into Clay county. The and most daring type, they outlived them j outlaws then took a deadly and dramatic re ail, and bti'il ride from place to place defying ! venge. Two of the Chicago detectives were pursuii. How they h ive managed to escape so long is a mystery to every one. THEIR CAREER OF CRIME. When the war was closed the 'James boys' I were in Kentucky with Quantrel, and short ly afterwards commenced their career of j robbery in Western Virginia. They weie 1 pursued into Kentucky, but managed to es ' cape into Southern Missouri, where they an : nortneed their arrival shortly afterward by ; stopping si train on the Irion Mountain Rail road and robbing it at Gad's Hill. A large ; reward was offered by the Governor ai d by : the railroad company, but the "boys" re- treated into the dense, blaek and scrub oak i.t.,ri,-.n& ..f fWarlr Mountains .anil were Konti Jost to pursuit. Their success encouraged highway robbery, ami trains werestopied in Kentucky, Iwa, Nebraska and Kansas, and, notwithstanding the fact that trains were t lobbed simultaneously in far distant States, I the ".lames bovs" w-pre credited with doing n!1 tUo (.-viltry. In 1S72 theseoutlaws wrote ' . ... to Governor B. Gratz Brown, or Missouri. off"riu to surrender themselves for trial for the Gad's Hid robbery if they were granted f ,, nffenses. The nnnlica- 0,'iiet for some time, living sometimes at home with their mother, who had married a Dr. Samuels and was residing on a farm near Kearney, Missouri, and sometime? attend ing cattle down in Southern Kansas. Allan Pinkerton, the great detective of Chicago, stimulated by a desire to obtain the large re wards offered as well as the glory of killing or capturing this gang of outlaws, flooded the country about Kansas City and the vi cinity of the Samuels' farm with detectives. Some appeared as lightning-rod men, others as book-agents, patent-right peddlers, ltiner ant nreachers. land buyers, in fact they came i in all shapes and forms, and so annoyed the ' months afterward the "boys" reappeared at old couple that they prevailed on Fiank and J tending the wedding of one of their cousins .lesse to leave the country for good. Before leaving for their new home in Western Tex as they determined on performing one of the most daring exploits of their lives, and this is how they did it. The writer was a wit ness of the raid and fully competent to de scribe it. A DATtlNO EXTLCIT. It was about 6 o'clock in tlie evening of September 18th, 173, the big day of the Ex position and races at Kansas City, the crowd, estimated at forty thousand, was pouring out of the gates into one of the principal, streets, when four men, roughly clad in or dinaiy farmers' costumes, were noticed rid ing their horses towaids the gate. The gate keeper was just locking up, and was about to start for the Treasurer's office, with two large cash boxes containing about $12,000 in greenbacks. Two of the mounted men at tacked the gate-keeper, knocked him down with the butt-end of their pistols, seized the boxes, and clearing the way through the as tonished multitude by firing a few shots into the air, they reached the other two mounted men, handed them the cash-boxes and moun ted their own horses. The crowd, almost wild with terror, opened right and left for these bold riders,!whose pistols were present ed in all directions, and liable to go off at any moment. In less than five minutes fiom the time of their first appearance they were gone. A woman and child were wounded accidentally and $12,000 in cash was carried off. Tursuit was out of the question, as darkness covered the retreat of the robbers, who took refuge in the wilderness of the ad jacent Blue river hills. Three nights after ward, about midnight, the "James hoys" made their unexpected appearance in the editorial rooms of the Kansas City rimffl, and in a few well-chosen remarks presented to the editor-in-chief a handsome gold watch and chain. The staff was then escorted by these daring outlaws to the Marble Hall restaurant on Main street, where refresh ments were ordered. While thee were be ing prepared Jesse and a reporter w?nt forth and the outlaw brought in a police man and a police sergeant, and compelled thefii to join the drinking party and after ward accompanied them to an alley close by where their horses were concealed. There they mounted, and nfter bidding the police officers adieu, rode off into the darkness. The police acted as though they were half dead with fear, but next day told their story with great gusto and satisfaction. A TlETECTIVE'S DIABOLICAL DEED. For some months after this cseapade noth ing was heard concerning the outlaws. But suddenly a startling report flew over the country that a fearful fight had taKen place between the "James boys' and a party of Piiikerton's detectives. The w riter was one of the first to reach the scene of the reported battle, when a heartrending scene was dis covered. In the farmhouse, lying on a sep arate bed, was the corpse of a little boy, the half-brother of Frank and Jesse James, and their gr -y-haired mother almost in the agony of death. One of her arms was blown off near the shoulder, her grey head was dab- bled with blood and her face bruised ami blackened with powder. Her daughter sat by the bed weeping, and a crowd of fierce and indignant Missouri farmers stood by in silent anger. It appeared that Pinkerton's gang of detectives had been run down in a box-car from Cameron on a special train, and stealthily approached the Samuels farm house in the expectation of capturing the James boys. The old-lady was sitting by the fireside, an old-fashioned wood fire in a stone 'chimney, listening to her younger boy , say his prayers before retiring to bed. Her j ' daughter had retired, and her farmhand was i : out in the stable attending the horses. With- j I out a word of warning the window was burst open and a bomb-shell was thrown in- to the room. The old lady had her arm j i blown off and her little son was instantly ; killed. The detectives after searching the j house and barn rode away upon what they ! j said was the trail of fleeing the outlaws. The ! 1 James boys wer then in Western Texas, where they own large cattle interests. They : returned to their mother's home as soon as , they learned of the attack on the old lady ! and the murder of their little half-brother, They then set about a fearful vengeance, and ; they appeared here, there and everywhere. , Now in Chicago, now in St. lyouis, again in j Clay county, and giving evidence of their presence by killing detectives in all direc- tions. ! A CHALLENGE TO PINKERTON j They rode up to the Times office in Kan j sas City and handed a reporter a challenge j to Pinkerton and a warning to him to take : iUs detectives out ot the neighborhood with- found lying in the rode not far from the Samuels farm, both with bHllet holes thro' their foreheads, a.id cn the same night three men rode down to the Missouri City ferry, and after waking up the ferrymen ordered them to take them across the Missouri river to Jackson county. One of the three men was tied to his horse, his arms pinioned to. his side, and a gag was noticed in his month. The other two men were masked, and each anneil with rev--1 vers. They landed safely on the other side of the river, and took the road toward Independence. Just within sight of that city the two men hung the third 1 to a tree so that his body was suspended di rectly over the road. About six o'clock the same morning thee two men rode their ja ded horses into Kai.Siis, City .oideied break fast and wrote a detailed account of the cap ture and execution of Detective Besher, or Fischer, one of Pinkerton's favorite men. This report they left at the Times office for publication, and rode slowly and leisurely over the railroad bridge into the woods of Clay county. Armed posies were sent out in pursuit, but the outlaws crossed over to Kansas and a few days later were safe in the wilds of the Indian Territory. It appears that they had met the detective on the streets of Liberty, and at his request started out t : one good tleed of. life to light the darksome j say has lived out ever since lie was a lit show hiui a piece of land near the James i way." tie boy." farm which he preteuded he wanted to buy. He was taken to the James farm and kept thtre until night, when he was escorted to another county for execution as a spy. THE MOTHER VISITS HER SOS3. Some months after the deatlof the unfor tunate detectives old Mrs. Samnels went to Texas to visit her sons on their cattle ranche near the Rio Grande, and it was hoped that she would remain there and Western Mis souri be rid of the outlaws for all time But the old lady returned home, and in a few residing in Kansas City. It was while on this visit from Texas the following amusing incident occurred. One of the proprietors of tins Times, Judge Mumford, of St. Louis, no tified the city editor that ho should like a gliuiose of these daring outlaws the next time they came to the office with correspon dence. A few days afterward Jesse sudden ly made his appearance at the window of tlie "local room" and entered into a conversa tion relative to an article published about hi in in the Journal. The city editor stepped into the manager's private office and said : "Judge Mumford, you desired to see Jesse James ; step this way and look at him." In stead of stepping this way tc see the outlaw, the old man seized his hat and without say ing a word ran out of the bai'.ding at break neck speied, and made a bee line for the ho tel, where he locked himself in. The city editor received notice that his resignation would le accepted if the "James boys" did not cease their unwelcome visits to the office. The "boys" laughed heartily when they heard of the old man's fright. From the time of the execution of Pinkerton's men up to the time of the Glendale train robbery, about a year and a half ago, these two des perate nen appear to have confined their op. erations entirely to Texas, Colorado and Wy oming. The writer saw one of them in Wy oming in 1879 ; he was in the cattle business, and no recognition was exchanged. THE YOUNGER BROTHERS. One of the Tounger brothers was also met in a cattle corral in Denver, in 1S7-1, but their presence there was kept secret, for to reveal j il was equivalent to an unexpected death I by a bullet from one of their friends. The j report that they were in the Minnesota bank robbery is incorrect. They were not on good terms with the Younger brothers, and j have not hunted with them since the war. They were also charged with tlie robbery of i the Kansas Pacific express train at Muncie, but subsequent developments clear them of j any and all connection with the clumsily- j performed robbery. ' The Kansas City ex- j press train was running through the Kaw j river bottoms, about seven miles from Kan sas City, one evening in 1874, when a signal of danger was waved at the Muncie flag sta tion. The train stopped, and fifteen or six leen iiiasKcu men l usneu oui i imii meirpiace cf concealment, and while the larger num ber mounted guard over the train six or sev en took possession of the locomotive, which, with tlie express car, was immediately de- tached from the balance of the trian and run down the track some distance and kept un der guard while the train was robbed. It was discovered soon afterward that the rob bers were a party of fast young men of Kan" sas City and Westport, some of whom were afterward captured and two of them killed iu resisting arrest. The discovery was made accidentally by a policeman named Pat Col lody. He arrested a drunken man for fast riding, and on searching him found a lot of the. jewelry taken from the Kansas Pacific train a few days previous. He was taken to Lawrence. Kansas, for trial, but escaped j from jail, and was shot by a Sheriff's posse, j sent in pursuit. Before he died he made a '. full confession, and it was then discovered that the train robbers were young men about j town, some of them belonging to the first families. They have scattered over the coun try and few have been taken up for trig ciime. THE JAMES BOYS' LAST EXPLOIT. The last exploit of the "James boys" was the robbery of the Chicago and Alton night express tiain at Glendale, a lonely little ta- I tion in the forest, a few miles east of Kansas City. The boys, with their gang, took pos session of the station a few minutes before the arrival of the train and cum pel led the station keeper to flag the train or die. They broke up the telegraph apparatus and when the train stopped ran it into a side switch, where they robbed the express car and the mad. The outlaws were all masked except Frank James, who was the leader. None of the pasisengers were interfered with. The windows of the cars were kept closed, and if a passenger put his head out to see what was going on he was sternly ordered to take i that head in or I'll blow it off." When tlie j safe bad been taken off the train and rifled, j the conductor was ordered to take his train on eastward. The robbers then disbanded? j and disappeared. Pursuit was made by the j Sheriff in ail directions, and a party overtook the "James boys" near Joplin, Mo., just when they were about to escane into the In dian Territory. A running fight ensued, iu which Jesse James was Lfadly wounded. A companion of theiro named Cooper, who had betiayed their hiding place, reported that Jesse James had died of bis wounds and had been buried in an old mining shaft, and he claimed the 510,000 reward for killing him. As he could not produce the body he failed to get the reward. The writer inter viewed Mrs. Samuels, the mother of the "boys," and she denied the report of Jesse's death. She said: "When rny boys die, don't you think I wiM know about it?" The recenttrain robbery in Clay county, Missouri, may perhaps be the work of these outlaws, but it is extremely unlikely, as it does not resemble their style of doing work. They j would not have killed Conductor Westfall, J who was one of the best and kindest-hearted j men in that section of the country. This ! last robbery looks more like the Muncie af- fair, which was done by a lot of hoodlums j atid loafers. However, the "James boys" I cannot be worse than they have been; one i crime more or less cannot make much I change in their record. Tlie only mystery about their career is how they escape death at the hands of their countless pursuers. .San FrancUco Examiner. The Greatest Evil.

This will give you a first rate opportunity of put ling on all the airs imaginable. In order to deceive the other boarders into I believing that you are of more than common importance, engage a dozen on twenty per sons to send you letters daily. If you ad ; vance the money to pay the expense of sta- tionery and postage, and only require 3-our j correspondents to send blank paper, there j should be no difficulty in arranging this mat 1 ter satisfactorily. j If any one should compliment any of your j dresses as they appear, you should say, "Oh, ! I'm only wealing my old duds, you know ; ; they're good enough for this pla?e." Then ! delicately hint at the elegant things in your , other trunk j If you have exhausted your resources in I garmenture befoie the close of your stay, ! begin at the beginning and again go through ! the list. i It may so happen that those who have I seen the first part of your dre?s rehearsal have gone, and a new lot of boarders taken their places. In that event your programme con be repeated with impunity. Should it be otherwise and the old board- 1 ets remaining, you can casually remark, as often as possible, that "Really. I am sorry I : brought "w best things. I haven't opened my othei trunk yet, and 1 don't believe I shall now. This is no place to dress, you ' know." If possible, do not have your husband with you. Husbands are frequently interior looking creatures, and too often lack the tact necessary to impress strangers with their importance. Let your husband remain at home, and you can say "My husband," or "Mr. Sinithington," in a way that cannot fail of apotheosizing him. Of course you will have a good deal to sav of "papa" and of his elegant residence. If "papa" be an inmate of the almshouse, all the better. You can speak of his great house without falsifying. Be sure and find all the fault you can with the food. Say as often as it occurs to you, "I never saw such cooking in all my lite." Yon probably ne'-er did see anything nearly like it ; so you won't be telling a w rong story. If yon have a son or daughter with you, fondle him or her incessantly. The board ers cannot fail to notice your action and remark upon the beauty of motherly affec tion. If any one refers to the beauty of the sur rounding landscape, you must say, "Do you think so? After one has seen so many grandei places, one can hardly appreciate anything so homely as this ; but I suppose it is beautiful."

One of those too frequent cases of matri monial disappointment which tend to prove that at least a part of the world is a fleeting show has recently been brought to light. An old colored person of about three s.ore years was found to be the possessor of an exceed ing unlovely wife, about a dftzen years his senior. As the old man was spry and intel- j ligent and his ill-favored spouse was direc- j tly the reverse, some inquisitive seeker f- j ter infoiination took the liberty of askTng j him how it came to pass that such a person ; as lie ever managed to secure for his bride a j lady so greatly his inferior. With a sigh and a few grones the victim of all-asforted mat- rimonial alliance as cheerfully as possible un- j curtained the scenes of the long ago and j treated the inquirer to a picture of the early 1 days. While he would not admit that his i soul was in any considerable degree a sordid ) one, he was frfe to acknowledge that wealth j was not without its influence on him. Had i two young women been named as possible j candidates for his affections, the one being ; rich and the other poor, he would ru.it have j rejected the moneyed tine in favor of the one ! who had not enough wherewith to purchase ! the plainest trousseau. In the days of his ' courtship he was deeply infatuated with the ! lady who is now his wife. He wondered if 1 she or her mother had money, but dared not ; ask her, lst she should think that he want- j ed her for her wealth, and, therefore, give ; him the mitten. She and her mother suspect ed that money would be an object to him. Yet neither of these woman would open their : lips on the subject which was well known to , lie very closely to their hearts and his. But i there are actions which speak more plainly i than words, especially when accompanied 1 with the music of the jingle of solid silver dollars. The house was of logs, with '.he i customary chinks in wall and ceiling. Up ' stairs went the prospective mother-in-law ; one evening when the youthful pair were sit- , 1 ting by the down-stairs fire. She had money and presently engaged in counting it. Clink 1 after clink greeted the suitor's ear as dollar ! after dollar passed through the old lady's ' hands in process of enumeration. His at- j tention was divided between this lovely crea j tn re down below and the financially ador- ; j able one up above. The sound fiom aloft ; j was enchaining, tran.sporting. bewildering. ; j The lucky fellow had supposed there might . be some wealth in the family, but when he 1 j had counted up to nine hundred clinks of as ; i many silver dollars his feelings overpowered ; him, and forthwith he made declaration of ' i his love to the girl of his choice. Disparity ; of age was nothing whon there was a union ! of soul. A matter of a doen years was not ' to be considered when nine hundred silver ! : dollars had made their melody up stairs, with j no telling how many more to be beard from, j The work of accepting the proposal was as speedily disposed of as the proposal itx-if. Ponipey and Marie were to join hands and ! heart and fortune in the indissoluble tie of holy wedlock, j To say that Ponipey was disgusted when ! he found the actual state of his morhcr-in- law's tleasury is to put it very mildly. When i he learned that her wealth consisted of thir i ty oid-fashioneii Mexican dollars and that she had on that eventful e vening counted them ; over and over again for his edification and to see what the effect on him would be, his first disposition was to rave and swear and tear ; his hair and declare that he would have naught more to do with Marie. But by this time he had married her. He had taken her for tietter or for wone, especially worse. ! The transaction was for "richer or poorer," and it now looked like being poorer enough. He might have repudiated his contract, but I that would be going back on himself and ! Marie, too. It would have been confessing j that he married for money, which is a con fession few people like to make, honest Urn' it he. So he determined to grin and bear it ( and worry along as best he could. He would 1 rather sing in the words of his favorite cauip mee'ing hymn, "I suffer on my three-score-J years," than try to break this yoke, how ever galling it might prove. Some men ; would have thought they had a good cause , for g-Uing a divorce, but such men as the i faitigul Pompey art- not made of tlie stu;I on ; which divorce lawyers fatten. ' Marriage is called a lottery. Perhaps there is a good deal of lottery business in it. ! The wisest who get into it never know in ad ' vance how differently it may turn out from ; original expectationsand promises. But the happiest and most judicious souls are those who, like poor Pouipe-, have sense enough . when they have made a bargain w hich proves I not so good as it seemed to give promise of , being, to make the best of it and throw into ' it such sunshine as they can. The Man Who Was Mixed. "Really, but I hope you will excuse the intrusion," said the shabby looking man as the insur ance agent looked up. "You are excusable, sir. What did you w ish ?" "Well you see I'm a bit mixed. Was it Napoleon or Washington who crossed the Alps?" "Napoleon, of course." ' JusL so thanks. I was inclined that way myself, but yet I know that Gen.' Washing ton was always scooting around and might have taken it into his head to cross the Alps, Good-day, sir." He passed down the hall thirty feet, anil then returned ami protested : "Say, don't think ill of me, but I am still mixed up fearfully mixed. Will you an- . swer me one more question ?" I "Yes." j "V. as it Nero who commanded the sun to stand still ?" j "No; it was Joshua." j "1 had an idea that it was Joshua, but I 1 didn't dare put up inoney on it. Nero was always fiddling around, you know, and I I had a dim idea that he might have taken a j whack at the sun. Yory uaich obliged to i you, sir." j This time he went half-way down stairs ! and returned on tip-toe, Tlie agent looked up and queried : "Well?" "Mixed again!" pleaded the stranger. ' Say, I want to ask yon just one more ques tion." "Yes." "Did you ever lend a man a dollar to help him on his way to Columbus to see his dy ing wife?" "Never! You are thinking of Old Dio genes, ile used to shell out to every tiau bent ho came a lot g. " "Mixed again, by thunder I" muttered ih inan,s lie pass.:.! down siairs for the last time.
