sembly to allow a separate synod to
be formed for colored churches in the
same territory as now covered by the
syEod of Tennessee. At the last meet
ing Of the general assembly. a law
was passed allowing the formation o.
two synods in the same territory

of the races. By separation the col
ored churches will have more respon-
sibility, greater representation in tho
general assembly, and their useful.
ness may be enlarged. The synod o

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 23-Cole
Younger, promoter of the trolley line
which is to pass through the old home
counties of the James boys and the
Youngers and thence to Jefferson City,
with a probability of later being ex-
tended to ST. Louis, says the money to
finance his project is being furnished
by eastern capitalists. 1t is under
stood, however, that Senator Ell1ins OF
West Virginia is furnishing the greater
part of the needed capital out of graf
itude to Younger.
When the civil war began, Elkins en-
listed in the federal army. The Younger
boys and Frank and Jesse James were
members of the Quantrel band. Dur
ing a raid Elkins fell into the hands
of the guerrilla chieftain Cole Younger
and Frank James saved his life. Elk
ms never forgot the kindness, and in
late years frequently showed his graf
itude to the ex-outlaws.
