Jesse James Apotheosis.

chicago Times
The monument in memory of Missouri's
favcrite son, Jesse James, will soon be COM
pleted. 1t is to stand twelve feet high on a
handsome base, and to be entirely con-
strncted of red granite. The friends of the
lamented train robber are not disposed, it
seems, to tall into the common weakness Of
adopting an epitaph describing not what
he was, but what he shopld have been, fer
upon the shaft will be engraved complete
list of Mr. James exploits. 1t has been
said that ''the evil men do lives after
them," bat it is probably wise on the part
OF the dead .ero's admirers to perpetuate
the recollection Of his numerous deeds in
enduring marble, rather than trust men,
Ory TO carry unassisted so great load of
evil as Mr.. James transacted. Memory
might break down under it. The dsv for
the public dedication Of the monument has
not been fixed. but it will be some time in
the early spring, and it is said "the Occa-
sion will be signaled BY imposing ceremon-
les, calculated to make it partake of the
nature OF a holiday throughout all Mis-
souri," Mr.. James monument is not so
extensive as the late Mr.. Washingtou's
will BE-, but it is significant that he gets it
first To his tomb the aspiring train
robber of the future will wend his way,
and from the catalogue of his glowing
deeds derive new zeal and fresh encourage

written letter expressing his sympathy
with soldiers who have lost limbs, and

want 500 ties, what would they cost rs ?"
After some complicated 6guring and much
pautomime the Mexican announced that he
could supply that number at City cents
apiece "And suppose We should want

native; II must charge at least seventy

asked what price he would deliver &c.,

A SAD EXPERIENCE.
A oerman-American, on Visiting
HE Native Land, Imprisoned
for Six Months on q Charge
Of DesOrtlon.

Special Dispatch TO the CD icaso Tribune.
Lafayette, Ind, Dec "a Some months
ago the Tribune contained an account of
the arrest of Barney Herstman, while on .
visit to his father and mother, near Mum
came to the United States, was under or
ders to report for military duty, but sac
ceeded in getting away to this country,
where he hal resided for about twelve
years. Last January he concluded to re-
visit the home Of his childhood, and
returned to the old country. In settling
the estate he and his sister-in-law-the
wife of the elder brother disagreed,
and the woman, knowing that Barney
was still liable for military service, in
formed the authorities. and the first thing
ne knew he vas marched into the fort as .
deserter. His citizenship papers did not
cover his case: and, a the old law subjected
him to the paw nent Of q fine of $40, he
was rather independent and quite free
spoken, a. he had ample money to pay his
fine. But alas for Barney. Since be had
left the old home the law had BEEN
changed, and, instead of q small fine, the
penalty was imprisonment for six months,
and could be extended to twelve. He was
placed in what is called the deserters' fort,
or military prison, where he remained for 8
months, his time expiring November 5.
1882. He says the treatment b. received
vas net unkind, but he was KEEP, ..rploye,i
during his incarceration. After his r.-
lease he completed his visit with his reia-
tives and arrived at his home in this city
He will remain here, having
had quite enough of the way they do

THE SONG OF THE ADVERTISER.

/ am an advertiser great!
In letters bold and big and round
The praises of my wares sound:
The people come,
The people 70
In one continuous,
Surging flow
They buy my goods and come again,
And I'm the hapriest of men;
And this the reason relate
am an advertiser great!
There is Q shop across the way
Where ne'er is heard human tread,
Where trade is paralyzed and dead,
With ne'er . customer a day.
The people come,
The people 60,
But never there,
They do not know
There's such a shop beneath the skies,
Because he does not advertise:
While /. with pleasure contemplate
That I'm an advertiser great.
The secret of my fortune lies
In one small fact. which l may state,
Too many tradesmen learn too late
If have goods [ advertise!
Then people come,
And people 60
In constant streams,
For people know
That he who has good wares to sell,
Will surely advertise them we'll
And proudly | reiterate.

DANGEROUS PASTINE,
Which Should be Obliterated

The young boys of this city have fsr
years, and do this very day, indulge in a
dangerous luxury, that OF jumping on and
of of moving trains. The train men have
admonished them and the police chased
them, but Of no avail. Even the killing or
crippling of one of their companions has
no effect on them.
The railroad hands are pOwerless, as
there is no law in existence that prevents
the boys from doing just as they please. In
some instances the railroad men have
chsstised these reckless boys for riding on
the cars, and were at snce brought TO ac-
count for it by the child's parents, thereby
encouraging their own flesh and blood TO
Jump right into the jaws of death, telling
them "if the railroad men touch you, tell
Ms and we will make it hot for them"
Parents, this is wrong. Stop and reflect
for . moment. We know that Is father
stranger chastise your child, but wouldn't
you much rather have little Johnny
or Willie receive a slight
him brought home all mangled up, either
dead Or helpless cripple for life" FAY
yes, for we know You would, yes you would
in tears say that you would OF rather had
Rim logged.
Now right here parents of these boys
We want 10 say a word, don't get angry at
the railroad boys if they should shtly
chastise your boys, they are, when they do
this, comforting favsr on ysu. We have
had cur attention called TO this important
matter, and deemed it orr duty as public
benefactor, to call your attention to it,
What We want to ask is, don't blame
and censure the railroad employees for
driving them away, and in the end you
will reverence them fer doing it. In all
Of the eastern states there is law making
it a misdemeanor for any person not an
empleye to jump of or on a train while in
motion, and any railroad employe is
authorized 10 arrest all offenders.
Whether there is law of this kind in ex-
istence in the state of Missouri not, we are
not able to say, but there should be some
some kind of law enacted tina: would
reach all persons guilty Of the offense of
which We speak.
Now, in conclusion. We will say a VOID
to the wise is sufficient, and if yeur little
darling is crippled or killed, don't blame
the railroad men, for We assure you they
do all in! their power to keep them of the
cars, and it keeps them busy. Parents,
talk to your children, and tell them of the
danger they are in when they play around
the cars.

could not overcome. In his desperation he
sought the advice OF his fellow MongOli-
