FRANK JAMES AND COLE YOUNGER.
They Are Leading a Strenuous Life
 in the Show Business.

The Osceola (MoD Democrat claims that Frauk James and Cole Younger are not to blame or the robbing that is dCne by the grafters along with the show that is run under their names, and sustains it's assertion wit d story Of lively incident that happened in Osceola when the circus was there last week. Frank and Cole, according to the Democrat came nearer using the shoot ing irons with felonious intent than at any time since they ceased to employ them professionally.
 The circus is neither owned nor man. aged by James or Younger. It goes in their name but they are merely the chief attractions. The manager is man named Mckinley. He and Frank had quarrel in Osceola about the grating. There is a certain class connected with this show, Frank fin ally exclaimed, according to the Demo- crat. who rob the people wherever We So,and you protect them in robberies
 Mckinley replied: And who are you? do not know whether you are robbing the people any less than you used to-
 James stepped back and placed his hand on his pistol. and Mckinley and another by the name of William Patter son sought their revolvers and for d moment things looked squally, but the sheriff ard marshal jmped between the combatants and forced them apart.
 In the meantime news of the row had reached Cole Younger at the depot and 1umpingg into his landau he whip

HOLDING UP A BANK.

Perhaps the first Confederate bank raided by union soldiers was one at Charleston, Virginia, as Milroy was making his way up the Shenandoah h
 Running was in its infancy then. but dozen of the fellows found them- selves ahead of the army and resolved to strike for a big stake. They made a sudden attack on the town at daylight and then dashed in and made for the bank. They broke in the door with an axe, obliged the banker to unlock his safe and something like $600,000 was carried away as they retrcated.
 A day later they bundled up S100,0 GOO strapped it on the back of an old lame mule, and hired farmer to deliver the wealth" to General Milroy in person Accompanying the money was d note, which advised the general to bribe the Confederates to keep ahead of him and do no fighting. As his military ma neuVers had been checkmated right along, and his reputation was under a cloud. it was q hard shot at him. The story got to Washington, and was com mented on by President Lincoln, and 1t has been asserted that the presidents leVity caused the general to tender his resignation.-M. Quad.

Then Jim came along, and his name was as much as a cross to me as your Percy was to you, especially as he absolutely refus- ed to be called Jamie. I saw a great deal of him all winter and spring. and I had hopes of the summer moonlight, for l was determined that he should not propose until it could be done ac- cording to my established ideas on the subject. One morning mother wanted things from the market. and I took the basket and went down to get them for her. It was very hot and very sunny. very noisy and very smelly around there, and while I was laborinS away with those awful Italians who should come up but Jim? He held my basket for me and watched me fussing around, and l knew perfectly that he was laughing at me.

He threw it away after he got to Tampa. though he never dared tell me so until after we were married. So l made the thing. and even thought it was pretty clumsy. It seemed such sort of com monplace thing to be giving him, though when he was going away to be a hero, that I conceived the idea of making it very romantic by slipping in one of my gloves. I had visions of him finding it when he was under the tropical sky, and I even thought how very romantic it would he if he should happen to he shot through it. I tied up the package with tissue paper and white ribbon, and presented it to him one evening on the porch, never dreaming that he would open it then and there. But Fred was always such a blunderer. he never knows when to do things. So onen it he did. and rummaged through all the little pockets and pulled out the things from under tapes. About the middle of the thing he dragged out the glove. It was a. white one and I had cleaned it with gasoline before putting it in. and then drenched it with violet water to kill the odo. But you know how violet water dies and gasoline lives on for ever. He glanced at it a moment, then said:

 Naturally felt like a fool. I must have left it there by mistake I stam- mered. But Fred was such a persis- tent wretch. and he saw that I was embarrassed. No, it wasn't that he insisted for it was all folded away in here. What did you put it in for? don't see how my love for that man ever survived that moment.

 The other woman sighed sympathe- tically at the horrible tale. and the woman in the silk shirtwaist prepared to tell her story.

mountains along the way for it paid out s1S,OO0 to follow the plans of the engineer along this tortuous twenty four miles. A large sum is annually spent in making repairs, for the road wears and ravages of the summer thunder storms are terrific. The road so far, and it is only three years old, has cost probably not much less than 5000 a mile.
 Hitherto the stage line was privately managed and the service was not all ways satisfactory. The company re- solved last spring to put on it's own line and month ago Capt. c. w. BarSer, western stage driver of forty years. a scout and plainsman and a friend of w. F. Cody, came on to take charge of the transportation. He bought horses regardless of the cost and established two stations along the line. Since then stages arrive at either terminus with the regularity of a railroad schedule.
 Within a month the company will have an eleven passenger, thorough brace stage On the line and the time between the junction and the springs will be reduced to about three and a half hours.
 Thus the springs have been made easy of access. The train from Phoenix arrives at the junction little after six o'clock in the morning and an hour later the stage leaves. The south bound train arrives at the Junction about midnight, but there is com fortable hotel where excellent meals are served. It is kept by MT. H. N. Cox, the sole merchant at Morristown, who is doing a flourishing business and Is besides engaged in forwarding sup plies to the springs.

THE ROAD TO CASTLE CREEK.

Mention has been made of the stage road from Hot Springs junction or Morristown to the springs. It was also stated that it was the most scenic stage route i'll the United States. It gradually climbs into the mountains. steals along the sides, doubles back turned by impossible mountain and precipice until it finds and opening In many places 1t is terraced. In places it is cut out of solid rock. It abounds in horse shoe curves. The scenery is constantly changing until one reaches the top of the divide and then it keeps on changing. each incl dent more striking than the preceding one until the traveller passes through the frowning gorge and arrives at the springs.
 The engineer who laid out the road was competent and the Castle Creek Hot Springs and Improvement com pany had faith to remove or evade the

 ations made by representative of the Republican who lately visited the springs.
 Last season the seventy-five first class rooms of the hotel were filled. It is believed that in the coming sea son the hotel will be taxed beyond it's capacity.
 It would not be strange if it were. No where else are the fall, winter and spring days more delightful, nowhere else do the appetites more flourish. No where has the sunset longer and more beautiful glow and the moonlight is poured down into that bowl of the mountains with an unheard of lavish ness.
 The guest retires to his room and from listening to the breeze among the trees, the plashing of the foun- tains and the gurgling of the irrigatinE ditches, he passes into a refreshing slumber.

CLIMATIC CONDITIONS.

The altitude of the springs if 1871 feet. Conditions could be no more de sirable. The surrounding mountains ward off sweeping blasts, yet at all seasons of the year a breeze is drawn as through a chimney through the gorge and spreads itself over the vicin- ity.
 There is little range of temperature between day and night. Following are some of the figures:
 For the six months ending with No vember, 1898, the highest maximim temperature was S6, the lowest Gin January) 62: the highest minimum (ApriD 54, the lowest (February) S6. For six months beginning 1899. high maximum, S5, low maximum, 65; high minimum 50, low minimum 36 For same six months beginning 1900. high maximum 7S, low maximum 66; high minimum B, low minimum 36.

For the six months be- ginning with November, 1898, 161 days were clear, only 20 were cloudy and only 3 rainy. In the corresponding period of 1900 there were 155 clear days 25 cloudy, 1S rainy.

WHAT THE COOK LEFT.

A party of Philadelphia business men were relating their experiences with cooks, when one of them said he knew man in d nishboring city who after keeping q cock for 7 week. made a tour of inspection one night below stairs. There he found a policeman locked up in the pantry.
 How did that man get there?" ask ed the gentleman, severely.
 "1'm sure I don't lnow," was the cool reply; he must have been left over by the last cook."-Philadelp Public Ledger.

and about five millions each from North
America. South America and Africa The
ngures for Oceania show apparent fall
Ing on of about five millions, but this is
due to the fact that the merchandise
brought from Hawaii is no longer classed
as imports. Hawaii being now a territory
of the United States. If this were included
in the figures of imports in 1903 it would
show a growth of imports from Oceania of
about twenty millions.
On the export side the showing Is equally
interesting. OF the 573 millions of increase
1851 millions was to Europe, nnety-four
millions to North America forty-one mil
lions to Asia, thirty three millions to Afri-
ca, twenty-six millions to Oceania and
eight millions to South America. In case
the shipments to Hawaii were included the
increase to Oceania would be about thirty
six millions In case those to Porto Rico
We're included. the increase to North Amer
lea would be over 100 millions.
Even more interesting is a little table
which shows the gain In exports to each Of
the principal countries of the world. This
table includes only ten countries, yet to
these were sent 1859 million dollars worth
OF the total exports of 1903 leaving only
26l millions sent to all the other countries
The ten countries, stating them in the
order OF the magnitude of the exports to
them are united kingdom Germany,

CARGOES HELD UP.
approximately 600 Shipments Detain-
ed Pending Examination

The Agricultural Department is making
strong efforts to keep out of the country
all imported goods the entry of which is in
hibited under the pure food act. Since Au-
gust l. when the act went into effect, ap-
proximately GOO shipments of meat, wine
olive oil. etc. have been held up pending
an examination TO their purity or the
determination of the question whether their
use is prohibited in the country whence
they are imported into the United States
Up to this time only one shipment. consist
Ing of number of cases of white wine, has
been refused entry. Our special agents and
consulS abroad keep the department ad-
Vised by cable of all shipments of goods
which may come within the prohibitions of
the law. and instructions are sent at once
10 the collectors at the ports where they
are to arrive to hold them in warehouse
and send samples to Washington for analy-
sis or other examination. In the cases of
nearby ports only two or three days delay
are necessary, and instructions TO release
the goods are sent to the collectors at the
earliest possible moment; but where the
goods are detained at the Pacific coast or
gulf ports a much longer delay. probably
ten or twelve days is caused. AS to the
warehousing of these detained goods col
lectors have been advised that the con-
signees themselves must pay the storage
fees, whether the goods are finally barred
or admitted.
1t has been suggested that in the cases of
goods arriving at the Pacific or other far
away ports long delays and consequent en-
barrassments to importers could be OBJ
Waited by allowing the examinations and
tests to be made by the customs chemists
at the ports of arrival instead Of sending
them all TO Washington.
