THE St. Louis papers are exulting over
the grand spectacle presented during the
parade of the Yelled Prophets, and say
that no such illumination-no such
crowds-no such pageantry were ever
seen anywhere before, not even in Lon
don or Paris in their greatest efforts at
gala display. And not only in prepare
lion but in the more. difficult work of
execution was every thing perfect and
complete.

to the legal authorities Of the State or County
in which you are located. II innocent Of these
charges, then you will have an opportunity to
prove 1t to the world; If guilty, the law de-
crees The punishment. If you surrender, you,
as any other man charged with crime, shaliand
will have fair and impartial trial. The intel
ligence and character of the Courts Of this
State are ample guarantees of such trial
without any assurances from me; one not
based upon nor governed by the prejudice or
sympathy of the people, but under the judicial
forms of justice and well establishedlaws. As
determined as am to see the laws enforced
against all grades of crime, am none the less
convinced of the importance to society OF
having every man within the grasp Of the law
protected in his rights, however lawless he
may have been, when he yields voluntarily and
submissively to that law, and appeals to that
and me for justice and mercy.
You may be innocent or you may be guilty
of all the heinous crimes charged to you. That
the Court will determine, as before said, and
after the voice of the Court is heard. them If it
becomes necessary, 1 will decide what my &C

Frank James was born in Kentucky IN 1S41 /;
Jesse in Clay County, Missouri, in 1S45. Their
father was the Rev. Robert James, promi-
nent and eloquent Baptist minister, a pleasant
and courteous gentleman, possessed of more
education than was common with the minis
tiers of his church in the frontier days of 1913
in the West when the James family moved
from Kentucky to Clay County, Mo. He was
one of the first trustees of the William Jewell
College, located at Liberty, and though a resi-
dent of that vicinity only from 1S4S to 1s49. he
has left kindly remembrance of himself
among the old settlers. In 1919 he went to
California, and there he died in 1851.
Early in 1861 Frank James, then twenty years
old, went to the war. His inclination led him
to join Quantrell's band OF guerrillas, in
which he soon became noted for his daring
and murderous ferocity. Jesse, only fourteen
years old, sought service at the same time, but
was rejected as too young. Returning home
he became serviceable as spy for the guerril-
las infesting Clay and adjoining counties in
Missouri. His stepfather, DIR. Samuels, was a
pronounced secessionist, and old Mrs. Sam
uels gave unbridled license to her tongue in
advertising her sympathy for the South. The
family, thus making themselves conspicuous,

Resolves TO Surrender.

After receiving the Governors letter Frank
James seems to have fully determined to give
himself up, although he could CLEAN from it
no promise of immunity from punishment
But he concluded to take his chances, and put
his nerve and courage to the test of setting
out for Jefferson City to deliver himself to the
Executive of the State. When he reached Sc
dalia he was Joined by Maj. John N. Edwards,
and the two arrived at Jefferson City about
O'Clock on the morning of the 5th and put up
at the McCarty house. He remained there
during the day, appearing in the dining. room
with the guests of the house and Mr.. McCarty
and family, all of whom were entirely uncon-
scious of his identity, he having registered at
the hotel under an assumed name.

submit that it is not an improper question
for your consideration, whether it would not
be better to have Frank James a hunter of
fugitives than a fugitive. Whether Frank
James humbled, repentant and reformed be-
fore all the world will not be an example more
fraught with good to the rising generation than
Frank James a mysterious wanderer, or the
occupant of a felon's cell or grave.

without a complete precedent, is not the result
of a sudden within, but is born of determine

which has already stood the the test of four
years of sober. industrious farm life, as will

How to Get Early Sweet Corn.

Judge Meller, of Missouri, has been
visiting the editor of the Germantown
Telegraph, and claims to have discovered
the following method of getting roasting
ears at least one week sooner than by
waiting the regular course of nature.
He said as soon as the ear is formed,
break the top down or cut it off, but leave
the stalk erect in order that the pollen of
the tassel will be sure to dust the silk of
the ears, as they may not be frtAly impreg-
mated should the stalk be topped. He
stated that he had experimental for
several years and was entirely satisfied
that 1t was uniformly practical and of
value. In fact he thinks that the ear
becomes more fully developed also. This
is hint easy to adopt, and may be of
interest to truckers as well as for the
private garden.

The Unsuitable archer has again drawn
his bow, and another has been cut down
in life's earliest spring time. Less than
one week of intense suffering, served to

little coffin and gazed upon her cold, pale
face, and remembered that but few
days ago she was with us joyous and hap
py, the tears flowed copiously from their
pent up fountain. Oh how hard it was
to give it up--to say farewell, and know
that we must see it on earth no more for
ever. But, dearest babe, we know that
thou hast over-leaped deaths dark rubi-
con-that the confines of the tomb have
been passed, and thou art forever free
from the cares and responsibilities, the
pains and sorrows incident to more ma
tured life. With an eye Of pity, we be-
held the hectic taking the bloom from
the roseate cheek and haughtily planting
there its own false and fading hue. but
our Heavenly Father has seen fit in his
infinite wisdom to remove her from our
embrace and weedo know that she now
tunes her infant voice to the music OF an
gelic choirs above. Let us, dear friends,
become like her in childish meekness that
we too, with her, may inherit the glories
of Heaven, for except we beeomea as little
children we cannot enter into the king

The child was four years of age and had
been suffering for about twenty months
from what appeared to be an enlargement
of the liver, until the body was swollen
to an enormous size, battling the skill of
several physicians who had been called to
see it; about week ago death ended it's
sufierings. DIR. Brubaker obtained the
consent ofthe parents to post mortem ex-
animation which revealed the fact OF an
enlargement OF one the kidneys instead Of
the liver. This organ had become so large
that it filled the whole chest nearly, and
when taken out, weighed exactly twelve
pounds. The case is an anomalous one,
to which the medical records furnish no
parallel. The doctor has sent portion of
the kidney % Ann Arbor for microscopic
analysis and when returns are received he
will write up the case for the Medical Jour
nal.
