National Salute Will be a Feature of
 the Celebration.
 The boom of cannon in the National Salute will be a feature of the cele- bration today at Electric Park.

 The firing will begin at D. m. The band will be busy all day and the big crowds which will attend will be en- tertained with patriotic music and an extra matinee at the Casino besides the regular attractions which will be Ko- ing full tilt
 The vaudeville performance at the Casino is a good one with enough va riety to give the necessary spice.
 The performance of Sam Elton, styled European Comedian" on the program. is a really high class act. as, for that matter. are the rest. But EIIOn act ing than the others. He looks like Bob Taylor. of Tennessee. and gives vivid representation of an acrobat on jag. He and his paraphernalia can do more astounding things without breaking his neck than any but an eye witness would believe.
 Gary Owen, the child comedian. con- tinues to be sagely pronounced ''the cutest ever" by the ladies in the au- dience and the men tell each other that the youngster is "a clever kid"
 Lawrence Crane, the big Irish pres tidigitator, creates a laugh as we'll as wonder with his astounding exper.> ments" Greene and werner's unique Babes in the Jungle" act gets a lot of laughs, and the Iggorotesdue sounds which emanate from the esophagus of the jungle suitor awe the audiences.
 The free post-Casino performance of Professor Apdale and his wonderful performing bears. dogs and monkeys and ant eater is an unusually good at traction and large crowds see 1t at the dancing pavilion.

enough to work for his mother. One Sunday he saw the following adver- tisement in newspaper:
 "Wanted--An Office boy. T. T. Crit tenden. Jr"
 Jesse answered 1t and was hired hy the son of the Governor who had of- fered the reward that tempted Roh Ford to kill the boys outlaw father.
 few years later Jesse went to work in Armour's packing plant as a clerk, He studied at home, with his mother as his teacher. After a few years in the packing house he opened a cigar store in the county court house. He wrote book in defense Of his father, which was published and sold well. When he was twenty-one years old he had $700 in hank and owned cottage. in which his mother and sister lived. Then he opened a cigar store in the business center of Kansas City.
 At this period of his life, when he was on the road to prosperity and to an honored manhood. he was arrested Tor the crime of train robbery. II was charged that he. with accomplices, had stopped Missouri Pacific train ana robbed the safe in the express car Of $39,000. It was a dramatic train robbery. as much so as was any of the robberles of similar nature which hao made his fathers name notorious throughout the world. He was tried was ably prosecuted. and was acauit. ted
 But the criminal charge against him was serious setback to his homes ana ambitions. It had taken all his savings to hire lawyers to defend him. self. and the worry had caused hi. mothers health to fall. Soon after. ward she died.
 Jesse worked harder than ever at his business. He had a chance to sell out and did so at u good profit. TheL ne started pawnshop and married. but ne wished to be a lawyer He attended the night sessions of the law schooi here' and all day long he sai Tn his pawnshop reading law. He graduated with highest honors, his ore. ceptors experimenting him. He has sold out his pawnshop. opened a law ofnce and won the first case in whicn ne appeared in court. This was in de- fense of man charged with burglary. Jesse regards this as a good omen.
 MT. James Is thirty-one years old He is worth $10.000. every dollar of which he has made by hard work He has two children and lives in a house that he owns. In all his life he has never tasted whiskey. beer or any other in- toxicating drink. He does not use tobacco in any form. He is a devoted husband and father, has no bad habits and is scrupulously honest To men with whom he does business his word is as good as his bond.
 One of his greatest pleasures Is to go with his wife and babies on Sun day to visit Frank James. his uncle, and Mrs. ZereldR Samuels. his grand mother, upon their farm in Clay county. In a corner of the dooryard of this old Clay county farm house. beneath a giant coffee bean tree. the body of Jesse James. the outlaw. lies buried.
 When young Jesse James and his family visit there relatives from the neighborhood gather in and great stories are told of the old days be- fore and after the war, when Jesse and Frank were struggling against the soldiery. Sometimes Frank James, who lives there quietly as a farmer, takes a hand in the conversation. but he never talks of those days if strangers are present.

MONEY LENDERS FINED.
Strong Opinion Rendered Fly Judge

Jones m btrmlnGhnm.
 Birmingham, July 3.-(Special IA fine of $500 was imposed in the federal court today by Judge Jones on the Home Discount Company. a money lending company, which purchases as- signment of wages. The charge against the company was contempt in bank ruptcy matter.
 It seems that a railroad employe placed the assignment of his wages to the Home Discount Company in his statement to the referee of bankruptcy. A release was ordered by the referee on the part of the discount company and failure to obey brought about the charge of contempt. An appeal was taken to the court of Judge Jones.
 The court rendered strong opinion in the premises, holding that concerns that purchase assignments of wages could not get any more protection than other creditors and that purchasers of assignment of wages were money lend CTS pure and simple and their rates of interest was in most cases usury.
