a NOroR,ous oABnnn EMBED
Jesse James Assassinoted by Two
Members Of His OutIawed Gang.


A dispatch from ST. Joseph, Missouri.
says that a great sensation was created
IN that city ON last Monday morning by
the announcement that Jesse James. the
notorious bandit and train robber. had
been shot and killed thore. In a small
frame shanty in the southeast part Of the
city, on the Hill. not far from the Worlds
Hotel, Jesse James has lived with his
wife since some time in November last.
Two me.nbers of his gang, Robert and
Charles Ford, and James were in tho
front room together about 9 o'clock Mon
day morning. James took of his belt
and laid his pistols on the bed, preparing
to wash himself, when Robert Ford
sprang up behind him, ana sent a bullet
through his brain. The bail entered tho
back of his head az the base Of the right
Dram, coming out ovor the eye. The
ord brothers at once made known whit
they had done, ana gave themselves up.
They ace now under guard at the Court
House. James wife has t~elegraphed TO
his mother the news of his death. a
number Of meh have identified the body.
and there is no question about its being
that OF Jesse James. 4 look at the body
at the undertaker's showed that he wa4
a f~ue~looGing man, apparently forty
years old, with broad forehead, and his
p~hysiog1omy was hat of an intelligent,
as well rs "A r~esolute and daring man.
The house whore james lived and ia
which he was killed has the appearance
Of an armOny A number Of glns and
pistols, including q repeating rife, 4
needle gun and navy revOlvers, with a
good store of ammunition, were found
there. Jesse was III the habit Of wearing
two belts, with a brace of very fine ;e~
Volvers and twenty five extra cartridge
in "A small stable. near the house, were
discovered sovera! fine horses, the prop
eTty OF James.
The Ford brothers claim that they ars
detectives, and that they have been on
James tracks Cor a long time. 1t is be-
lieved they were with James in the Blu8
Cut tram robbery. and that they were
influenced IN killing him by the hope IT
getting the big reward, which has boom
offered for ia mes, dead or alive, by tho
Governor and 10y the express and rail-
road companies.
1t is learned that Ford, who is believed
to be a member Of the gang, was under
the %control of Police Commissioner
Craig, O! Kansas City, and has boon used
as an instrument for James destruction.
Ford is a young man about p years old.
and looks like "a verdaut youth from
the country. I'm appearance he is q mere
boy, and s. the last person in TIE wor q
TO be taken as tho SLAYER of the fdmOus
outlaw.
The corOuer's jury returned a verdict
Of murder in the first degree against
Ford, and the authorities Of Buchanan
County refuse to give him up.
Tie body of Jesse James will probably
be taken To the old farm house near Kear-
uey, Clay County, Tor burial.

During a storm q few days ago, Mrs
David Lambard, Of North MonrOeyill =,
OHIO, was at work at the wash-tub. Her
son was sitting about six feet away, near
a sewing machine. Between the two q
dog lay asleep on the floor, with his head
resting or the frame Of the machine. The
house door was open. A lightning bolt
flashed into the room, singed the hair all
of the dog and killed him, glanced to the
cistern pip and ran down II into the els
tern, then up in a tin conductor, melting
the solder ON the iOints, and Destroying IA
portion OF the cave trough. From there
II went across into an apple tree, killed a
bird, and stripped il of its feathers, and
then made Tor the ground, leaving a hole
where il entered. The woman and her
son were uuhurt. The story Is told on
the authority of the Mayor of the village.

nevertheless, 3 "Stalwart" admins
t~ration.
IT IS q little strange that religious
denominations which were split by
the questions of the war, remarks the
Wheeling Register, should be the
last to be reconstructed and reu-
nited.
The two divisions of the Methodist
Church, known as the Church
North" and the Church South" are
still standing out against a reunion
although nearly every other division
occasioned by the rebellion has melt.
ed away.
The feeling between the Metho-
dists North and South, however, an
tedated the war. A partial division
occurred in 1874 over the slavery
question, which eliminated during
the war in a complete rupture of all
relationship other than in name, and
which continues up to this time,
But there are stronger indications
now than at any time since the war.
that the differences are a. an end.
The New York Times says ait is re-
garded az almost certain that the
General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South, which meets
in Nashville in May, will take some
action with reference to organic
union with the Methodist Episcopal
Church"
This time the overtures will come
from the Church South, and it nay
be that it will rest with the North
ern Church whether the reunion will
be inllly contaminated.
The Church North, however seems
to be less anxious for union now than
1T was several years ago. Itappears
to be satisfied with fraternity. The
united church would be one ot"mag.
nlh2ent proportions1' with its two
and a hall millions of members; but
consolidation would be doubtless Of
more advantage TO tho Methodist
Episcopal Church South than to the
Methodist Episcopal Church North.
In the first place the latter is firm
ly established in every State and
Territory, while the former is con-
fined almost entirely to Southern
States. Secondly, the Church South
has only half the numerical strength
OF the Northern Church, less than
half as much influence and power
and wealth, and no such educational
facilities.
II organic union should take place
there would have to be very impor-
tant, almost radical, changes made
IN the governmental system. The
General Conference would have to be
enlarged 30 as TO become as imam
ageabIe as a mass meeting, and the
increase Of valuable Offices in it's gift
would De a source OF disquietude, not
TO say Of conflict between tie two
sections.
The proposal, to which some have
given serious attention, to bridge
this difficulty by providing for three
General Conferences simply amounts
to o proposal to unite two churches
for the purpose Of dividing them into
three. The question Of adoption to
gradual growth and change is a far
different one from that OF accomo-
dating the machinery suddenly to an
Accession Of between 100000 and
300, 900 communicate IN bulk; and
these important questions would de-
mand serious consideration, if not
actual settlement, before the recnion
10 contaminated.
