Cincinnati-Some of the mystery

result of a post-mortem which DR..
Paul G. Woolly, head of the depart
ment of pathology of the Cincinnati
hospital and the University Of Cincin-

Of Jimmy Mac" a monkey Of the

suffering from a somewhat similar
condition. Jimmy Mac" died He

that the old Stuart times were at an
end. No one after all has so clearly
shown US how impossible 1t all was
as the novelist who admitted that It
was 60 years since.
Some day the fragments yet re-
naming OF Jesse James life will be
gathered together by one who passes
over the transition stages OF history.
Robbers there have been, and will be,
but few of the young people Of today
understand how large a territory
owned Jesse James as a sort OF
bandit baron. Like Robin Hood and
Rob Roy he had devoted followers.
Quiet farmers and merchants made
excuses for Jesse James. not unlike
those Bailie Nichol Jarvie made for
the McGregor. Stories about Jesse
James kindness to the poor. his
generosity to his friends, his courage
and good humor were told in many a
tavern. There we're many who, not
from cowardice but from sympathy,
MOulu nave ublu DdCh tNlutuCb lGuu-
ing to convict the James boys. and
who would have given the accused
the benefit of every possible doubt.
If the reader can recall how Rob
Roy's arms were bound and how the
guard let him escape just at the right
time he can form some idea OF the
open or secret friendship for the
James boys by many Of their con-
temporaries.
1t is almost tantalizing that Rufus
Choate, who suggested the history of
New England as material to be treat
ed after the manner of the Waverly
novels, did so little to forward the
design. II we got at 1t, we should
find that the stock of romances of the
daring and the lawless, the wild and
the almost incredible is endless. Be
fore starting ourselves at the idea Of
Rob Roy co-existing with Locke's
philosophy and Berkeleys ideals, let
us remember that Jesse James was
the contemporary of Ralph Waldo
Emerson and T. S. Arthur.

New York.-If we are not certain
as to the date OF the death OF Rob

member that Sir Walter Scott looked
on 1t as doubtful says a writer in
the Living Church. Reports varied; !;
the best authenticated tradition
showed that the daring McGregor had
outllved his widest deeds, and we
may take It for granted that he died
in the latter part of the decade be-
tween 1880 and 1740. Assuming that,
we have some interesting compari-
! sons TO make. A man whose real life
was as sensational as that of the
levied blackmail on peaceful cattle
raisers, who plundered his enemies,
who long dreamed of upsetting Han
over and setting up Stuart, a char
acter half seventeenth century and
half sixteenth, was living during a
part at least of George Washington's
infancy. Franklin may have heard
many story OF him. Paul Jones may
have sailed with men who had caught
a glimpse Of Rob Roy through coast
and island traditions.

Scott has thrown around him, and
he is a fascinating last of the Mohi-
