Sees Mrs. Shmuels Mt the Old Home

poets Dave to Send Her

While stopping at Excelsior Springs
Chief Of Police Donahue drove eight
miles into the country with a party of a
dozen other visitors to visit Mrs. Salnuels,
the mother of Jesse James, killed by
Bob" Ford at st. Joseph. Mo, in 1881.
"She Is a wonderful old woman" said
the chief. "She will be IS years old Sat-
urday, yet can recall dates of forty and
fifty years ago with marvellous certainty.
She lives on the farm where her home
has been for fifty years. the house itself
being twenty years old when she moved

the James boys were being hunted first,
Just after the war. Where the plaster
has dropped off in a room OF the house
the old handmade laths show up.
Mrs. James, as she is best known in
that section, has but one arm, the right
hand and most OF that arm having been
destroyed by a bomb thrown through a
window during the stormy times when
the Pinkertons wanted her sons, dead or
alive. She shows you the window where
the bomb came through and points out
where an S-year-old son was when hit
and his entire side torn away; also where
her old negro servant stood when killed
by the same bomb. She asks everybody
II he is from Chicago, against which city
she holds an undying grudge. She identi-
flies Chicago with the Pinkertons, and
'brutes' is the mildest word she applies

after the ceremony, Frymire says in his
petition, he himself was born. His plea
to the county court phrases the matter
thus:
That Henry P.sCarey and Anna G. Carey
were married in the state of Pennsylvania
about the year 1874; that your petitioner
was born to them during lawfu wedlock,
or about the date of the said parents mar
riage."
Then Frymire quotes the Pennsylvania
statute to show hat il~legitimate children
are legitimatized II the parents marry sub
sequent to the birth Of the child.
Mr.. and Mrs. Carey moved to Nebraska
where Andrew ]. Carey WIS born to them.
Henry Frymire was brought up by an
uncle of the name Frymire back in the
keystone state. Years later he too came
west. But he did not join the .Careys in
Omaha. Instead he went to Frontier
county of this state where he married.
There, too, he managed one way or an
other to xii, a man some years ago.
Frymire was tried in the district court
Of Frontier county in 1903 for murder, and.
being convicted OF manslaughter, was SEN
fenced to ten years. At the trial, Henry
p. Carey, according to the statement OF
Frymire's attorneys, testified that Fry
mire was his son.
In September, 1907. Henry P. Carey died,
Omaha daily bee., 1910-01-29

leaving an estate Of $500. Mrs. Anna
Carey, his wife, became executrix, and on
her death in August OF last year, Andrew
j. Carey applied to become administrator
Of her estate. Here is where the plot, ac-
cording to the charge grows Kicker.
Andrew Carey is accused in the petition
Of Frymire of representing himself to be
the only heir-at-law of his mother, while
aware OF Frymire's existence, of his pa
%ternity, and Of seeking to keep the man
in prison in ignorance of the fact that the
father and mother had died.
Frymire asks that Albert A. Patzman
OF Omaha, be appointed administrator in
Carey's stead. 1t is represented that the
estate Includes 5000 in notes and bonds,
and a pool hall at S5 North Sixteenth
street, worth $500.

citizen to bring information Of the hold
up to the health department. He reported
that the fake garbage collector had charged
his wife so cents for emptying the can at
his house, instead of 10 cents.
Mr.. Whalen happened to be in the health
office when Mr.. Bowes called, and said
that he had not begun work at all yet.
He said also that when he does begin he
will make a regular arrangement with
every householder in his district and will
do his own collecting once a month, at the
regular rate provided in the ordinance.
1t is known that the Omaha Rendering
and Feed company also intends to gather
in the other seven districts on a systematic
plan and to collect at regular periods.
Hence housewives and all others concerned
are warned by the health department to
find out just who they are doing business
with and post themselves on the rates that
can be legally charged, The price ranges
from 10 cents for a ten to t~wenty-gallon
can to 50 cents for a fifty-gallon can, and
the high rate is permitted only in the more
thinly populated districts.

Dave O'Brien Her Sweetheart.
"She insisted that she has q sweetheart
in Omaha, when she learned l was from
here. When 1 asked her who it was she
replied: Dave O'Brien. He came to see
me here some years ago and l liked him.
He sends me a box Of candy occasionally.
and do hope he won't forget me on my
birthday She admits she is very fond Of
candy, and credits 1t with helping her to
keep spry and clipper. 1 never saw a
woman Of her age who was as bright, as
able to talk, or as quick in getting about.
She apologized for the absence of her
servant, when we arrived, by saying, My
hired folks are just like policemen; you
can't find 'em when you want EN- She did
not know then that 1 was a policeman.
Let me give you another instance of
the keenness of Mrs. James. She insists
she can tell when a man has his wife with
him. She just sits at the window and
watches the visitors alighting from their
rigs,
If a man has his wife with him. she
asserts, he merely takes hold of her arm
in helping her out Of the rig. II he has
his sweetheart or some other mans wife,
he takes her in his arms to lift her out
And then she laughs in quiet approval of
her own wit.
Speaks of Frank and Jesse.
1T is interesting to hear this woman
tell of the fighting days and of how she
helped her brave boys as she invariably
speaks of Jesse and Frank. A grave still
kept up in the house lot was formerly oc-
cupied by the body Of Jesse, but she had
it moved to a cemetery three miles away
once when she decided to leave the
farm. Then she moved back, not being
satisfied in a town, but did not bring the
body Of her son with her.
"she was expecting a visit from her son
Frank this week. He lives now in Okla
IONA and she takes delight in telling visit
ors how he made her a republican. She al
ways admired Roosevelt, because he is a
fighter, and / like fighters, but she never
knew much of Taft until Frank wrote her,
after meeting the president last year, to
go out on the porch and give three cheers
for Taft.
" I done it, too she says, with a shake
Of her head; only l gave five cheers for
Taft, and ~neighbors a quarter Of a mile
away thought / had gone crazy. They
came over to find out what allied me. and
were surprised When L lOhu lhSHA 4 was
cheering for Taft I'm a republican now,
and sorry l wasn't one years ago.
she goes in this way from one subject
to another with a vim and power Of ex-
preston that is most surprising. She
likes married men. and when she finds out
a man is married she always makes II a
point to pat him on the head in a motherly
way.

FOR DAM SITE FILED
Contest Over Land Along Gala

Special Dispatch 10 The

STOCKTON, Feb. 2O.-The Calaveras
conservation company, which filed ar
ticles of incorporation a few days ago
and yesterday organized by electing
j. NJ Eddy president, George w. Ash
ley vice president and II. c. Meyer
secretary and treasurer, has begun a
condemnation suit for the dam site on
the Calaveras in connection with the
reservoir plan for impounding the
water and preventing this city from
being flooded, and also for the storage
of water for irrigation purposes.
Some time ago a fling was made by
w. G. Hunter for water rights, which
was afterward assigned to j. NJ. Eddy.
Immediately after fling the water
rights surveys were made of the pro-
posed reservoir and plans for the dam
prepared.
After effecting permanent organi-
zation yesterday the Calaveras con-
servation company learned that the
California water storage company, a
corporation, had brought suit for the
purpose of condemning the lands along
the Calaveras river for distance of
six miles. from Petersburg, down the
river The complaint was sworn to
by John w. McKeehan, vice president
of the corporation.
The fling of the suit means con-
test between the local company and
the. other corporation
