SURRENDER OF FRANK JAMES,
THE MISSOURI OUTLAW.

The capital of the state of Missouri was
startled Thursday evening by the reported
surrender of Frank James, the noted out
law. And the rumor proved entirely true.
Frank had previously notified the governor
that he might expect such coupe de etat
and the governor had summoned compa
ny of state officials TO witness it, The
dignihed company was seated in the gov
errors private Office when two men en-
tered uncercmopiously. One of them was
Major Edwards, who was known as
staunch friend to The James brothers. The
two men walked right toward the governor,
and when Maj. Edwards said
"Gov, Crittenden: | want to introduce
you to my friend Frank James,"a death.
like stiffness took possession of the room,
and the men sat like statues. Gov. Critten.

There were some more casual remarks
and the prisoner and his friends then with
drew, with the understanding they should
remain at the McCarty house where they
had registered, until further notice. A few
of tho assembled company remained to
examine the beautiful hair trigger, A.
calibre Remington and the belt of forty
cartridges, but the majority after brief
caucus in which highly favorable opin-
ion of the prisoner was unanimously ex-
pressed, moved out and scattered the news
over town. In about fifteen minutes JEFF.

and great crowds were thronging to the
Mccarthy house, whittier Mr.. Farr had ac-
companied Mr.. James.
