COLE YOUNGER DEAD /.
The Last Of Missouri's So Called
Bad Men at Rest.

Lees Summit, Mo-, March %.
Cole Younger, one time famous
bandit and member Of the Jesse
James gang, died at AS O'Clock
last night at the home Of his niece,
Miss Nora Hall. He had resided
here since his return from Mime
sofa, after serving q term Of twen-
ty-five years in prison for the
participation in the attempted
robbery of the Mortified State
bank.
Younger was u years old,
having been born on his fathers
farm, seven miles south Of here on
January IS, 1874. In the family
were fourteen children, Of which
only three are now alive: Mrs.
Sallie Duncan, Kansas City, Kas.
Mrs. Martha Ann Jones, Denni-
soh, Tex, and Mrs. Helen Kelly,
Amoret, Mo.
The father of Cole Younger was
Henry Washington Younger, who
to Missouri from Kentucky
in 1880 and was married in Jack
son county to Miss Beersheba
Fristoe. They had fourteen chill
dren, eight Of them daughters.
Henry Washington Younger was
a thrifty man and a good citizen.
He was three times elected to the
Missouri legislature and was for
eight years judge Of the Jackson
county court. He owned a farm
Of 600 acres near Independence
and another near Harrisonville,
Cass county. When the war broke
out his wealth was estimated at |
100000.
The father was Union SYM
oathizer, but the Kansas jay
lawkers and Red Legs robbed
lin of his. live stock and finally
him. He was riding
n a buggy near independents.
when he was set upon and killed
md $500 taken from his person.
t was this act that drove several
# his sons to enlist under the

Willard Defeats Moran.

New York, March 25.-Jess
Willard, champion heavy weight
of the world, easily outpointed
Frank Moran in 1O-round bout
here tonight. Willard had the bet
ter on points in every round ex-
cept the third, which went to
Moran by a narrow margin, and
the eighth and ninth, which were
even.
The conqueror Of Jack johnson
claimed to have broken all the
bones in the back of his right hand
during a slashing rally in the
third, and it was noticeable that
he did not use his right to. any
extent in the later rounds. o.
casionally he uppercut to Moran's
body or jaw with that hand, but
it lacked the Furnishing power
shown in his training work.
The chief feature Of Moran's
battle was his gameness. AL
though he could make no impress
sion on Willard with his hardest
swing, he fought steadily and
courageously, and q hail Of left
jabs and hooks battered his face
and almost closed his left eye
toward the end Of the bout. Saw

There was no little excitement
in Drexel Monday evening says
the Drexel Star when two men,
strangers, alighted from the train
and began to make inquiries about
a certain well drilled at Norman
Fork 46 years ago. From their
talk it was found they wanted to
buy or lease the land for the oil
that they believed there. One Of
the men drilled the well but had
forgotten the exact location, as 50
many years had passed. He final
ly found the place where it had
been but it was several miles away
from where he frs thought it was.

THE PAPER OUTRAGE

Not only publishers, but merchants
and all users of paper feel the outrage
perpetrated by the manufacturers.
Some time ago a call was made for
old paper and when the shipments
commenced, the price dropped to prac-
tically nothing. Evidently the manu-
facturers did not want the bales. The
trade commission finds the cost of
producing paper is about $1.65, and
the price demanded runs all the way
from 1925 to about $500. Why the
enormous profits of the paper mills
Of all kinds at the present time? The
increase in cost, running up to SOC
per ent in some cases, is an outrage
equal to the demands of the sugar
trust or other monopoly.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1916

Cologne, in Germany, is conducting
the biggest restaurant in the world.
The municipality feeds for six days in
each week nearly half of the popula-
zion Of seven hundred thousand at
the surprising price of two marks
apiece, or fifty cents, for six square
meals. says the Madison Democrat.
This shows what concerted action can
do for a community. The story from
Cologne is a lesson in the cost Of liv-
ing and in elimination Of waste and
undue profits in foodstuffs. Much of
the high cost of living here is due to
waste, and to inefficient methods of
distribution. Individually we throw
away as much as we consume. Study
any kitchen where servants are en-
ployed The family living the actual
simple life, whose domestic labors are
all performed by it's own members
that is the family which feels least
the pressure Of high costs. 1t does
not require German socialism to rem
der existence tolerable even at this
extortionate and exceptional time.

BIRDS EAT TONS OF BUGS

Professor F. S. Jackson OF the Mani
toba agriculture college has estimated
that the birds devoured $4,000 tons
of bugs in that province the past year.
The birds have long hours in which
to work in Canada, and can accom-
plish more than the birds farther
south. If all the feather folk were
wiped out of existence agriculture
could not survive in Manitoba longer
than seven years; farther south the
end would come sooner. Birds have
many enemies at night and with the
long days in Canada the warfare is
reduced They can escape. AS to the
continuous slaughter by man, there
are too many who carry guns. There
is always a temptation to shoot and
the result is bird devastation. Profes
sor Jackson is opposed to finely made
birdhouses. He says the songsters
prefer a mud-covered box or an old
shoe.

INDIANS INCREASING

The American Indian no longer is
a vanishing race, but under improved
health conditions is increasing in
number, according to the annual re-
port at Washington of Commissioner
Sells of the Indian bureau. There
were 209,224 Indians when the report
was written, an increase of 1922 over
a year ago. Health and educational
campaigns, the report says, reduced
the general death rate this year from
1855 in 1000 to 1888, and cut down
the number Of infant death from 1891
from tuberculosis we're reduced 40 per
per cent.

MARRIED MEN ARE THE MOST
SUCCESSFUL,

Do you think you are saving money
and being successful by remaining a
bachelor? II you 10, read the Janu-
airy America Magazine and see what
a writer says about the ratio between
married and single men. Part of it is:
"Show me one middle-aged bachelor
who has made a success of his life,
and I'll show you twenty-six married
men who have. Probably the ratio
is even greater than this, but I pre-
fer to base my contention On demon
strable fact. OF the twenty-seven
presidents of the United States only
one lived and died a bachelor. Nine
teen of them married before they were
thirty, five before they were forty,
and two after forty. Yet, according
to the census returns, taking the en-
tire population of the country, the
proportion of single men to these
married, widowed or divorced, is
about forty to sixty"

BRYAN'S SEVEN PLANKS

There were seven wonders in the
ancient world, and evidently William
Jennings Bryan thinks there are sew
en- ills in our body polite.
In an address in New York he an
nounced the following symptoms:
/. Nationwide prohibition by fed
eral law or constitutional amend
ment.
2. Equal suffrage for women, to be
secured by an amendment to the fed
eral constitution.
3. Abolition of the electoral col
lege and election Of president and
president by direct popular vote.
4. Changes to make the nations
organic law more easily amendable.
5. Antagonist to the universal
military training idea, and to the uni
versal military service notion.
6. Forcing newspapers, in return
for special mailing rates, to give free
a certain amount Of space for such
matter as the government desires to
have published.
z. Opposition to any plan to take
from the states the right to regulate
railroads.
Wonder if w. J. B. would apply
homeopathy, hydropathy, allopathy;
mental science, "Seven Banks" or 16
to 1? If the negro women were en-
franchised in the south it would be a
disagreeable dose for Dixie; if the
electoral college were supplanted, it
! would give Rhode Island a spasm, and
if the newspapers had to assume any
more burdens it would near obliterate
them. But laying all smiles aside and
suppressing a laugh at Bryan, the sew
en- planks are worthy of serious con
sideration. Not often would any seven
people agree on all of the seven
planks, yet they are here and must
not only be stood upon, but under
stood.
