Jesse James Mother.

An exchange says that "the James
boys had morose and ugly disposition. !"
This may be regarded as authentic. The
James boys were not only morose, but
they were at times irritable Jesse
James at different times killed over fifty
men. This would show that he must
have been soured by some great sorrow
No man who is healthy, and full of an
imal spirits, could kill the able bodied
voters of whole village unless he felt
cross and taciturn naturally. There
should have been post morton examin-
alton of Mr.. James to determine what
was the matter with him. We were in
favor of post morton examination of
Mr.. James twelve years ago, but there
seemed to be feeling of reluctance on
the part of the authorities about holding
it. No one seemed to doubt the propri-
ETY. Of such movement, but there was
kind of vague hesitation by the proper
officials on account of his mother. There
has been vast amount of thoughtful
ness manifested by the Missouri people
on behalf of Jesse's mother. For
nearly twenty years they have
put off the post morton exam
nation of Mr. James, because they knew
that his mother would feel wretched and
gloomy when she saw her son with his
vitals in one market-basket, and his
vertebr@ in another. Detective Pinker-
ton was the most considerate. AT first
he said he would hold an autopsy on
Mr.. James right away, but it consumed
80 much time holding autopsies on his
detectives that he postponed Jesse's
post morton for long time. He also
hoped that after the lapse of years Mr..
James would become enfeebled so that
he could steal up behind him some
night and stun him with Chicago pie,
but Jesse seemed vigorous up to a late
date, and out of respect for his aged
mother the Chicago sleuth hounds of
justice have spared him. Detectives
are sometimes considered hard hearted
and unloving in their natures, but this
is not the case. Very few of them can
bear to witness the shedding of blood,
especially their own blood. Sometimes
they find it necessary to kill man in
order to restore peace to the country,
but they very rarely kill man like
James. Still there are lots of mean,
people who do not give the
detectives credit for this. Bill Nye's

OUR EXPORTS.

1t is certainly gratifying to all true
Americans to know that of late years
our exports have largely exceeded our
imports, not alone in such staple ar
ticles as wheat and beef, but in almost
every branch of industry. Ten years
ago nearly all the perfumery and toilet
articles used in this country were i'm
ported from Europe; to-day we not only
manufacture for ourselves, but are large
exporters to South America, China,
Japan and the Colonies. The immense
growth of this particular industry on
the Pacific Coast is simply astonishing.

His wife. who is more intelligent, deter
mined that the son and heir should have

very beautiful one. When the child
was presented to the clergyman to be
baptized the latter said:
Name dis infant?"
Jim scratched his head awhile and
and finally said /:
Squash"
s'Dat's no proper name for Christian
child"
''Sunfower, den."
Once more the clergymen shook his
head incredulously. Jim Webster lean
ed over and whispered to his wife to
give the right name.

GROWING OLD.
BIT vANpYKE BROWN.

By VANDfkE BROWN
At ski well remember when
fancied all folks old at ten.
But, when I'd turned my first decade,
Fifteen appeared more truly staid.
But when the fifteenth round I'd run,
thought none old till twenty -one.
Then, oddly. when reached that age,
] held that thirty made folks sage.
But when my thirtieth year was told,
l said At twoscore men grow old !"
Yet twoscore came and found me thrifty
And 50 drew the line at fifty.
But when reached that age, swore
None could be old until threescore.
And here am at sixty now,
As young as when at six, trow
lis true my hair is somewhat grey,
And that use n cane to-day;
It's true these rogues about my knee
Say Grandpa p when they speak to me;
But, bless your soul, I'm young as when
l thought all people old at ten
Perhaps little wiser grown
Perhaps some old illusions flown;
But wondering still, while years have rolled
When Is It that man grows oldy
