COLE YOUNGER, GUERRILLA, BANDIT,
 OUTLAW, CONVICT AND GOOD CITIZEN

Cole Younger was one of the last of the members of the notorious robbef bands that infested western Missouri during and after the Civil War. He was a member of the Quantrell band of guerillas and with his two brothers took part with the James Boys" in bank and train robberies in Missouri and neighboring states that netted the looters more than a hundred thousand dollars. The leading mem bers of these bands are dead, some at the hands of law, some by suicide and others from natural causes. Younger, after long term in the penetentiary became a law abiding Missouri citi- zen.
 Cole was the oldest of the three Younger Boys"
 The father, Colonel Henry w. Younger, came to Missouri from Ken lucky before the war. He was a strong union man, though a slave holder. He settled near Lees Summit, twenty miles from Kansas City, where Cole was born in 1S44. Colonel Younger was murdered by one of the bands of lawless guerillas that infest- ed the Missouri-Kansas border in war times. The sons said their father was slain by Kansans for the purpose of robbery. They immediately took up arms against the north. They joined Quantrell's querillas and had their part in the memorable sacking of Lawrence, Kansas.
 When the war was over they and the Jameses became outlaws Among the notorious robberies of the decade following the war that were laid at their door were:
 The raid on the Liberty, Mo, bank in 1886. One bank defender shot dead and s72,000 stolen.
 The footing of Russelville, Ky, bank in 1868 for s17,000.
 The Gallatin, Mo-, bank robbery of 1868 in which the cashier was shot and killed.
 Raids of Lexington and Savannah, Mo-, banks in 1867.

 The Corydon, La., bank robbed of S40,000 the same year.
 A dozen other sensational robberies for which the Younger and James boys were blamed were carried out success fully before the three Younger broth CTS were captured in Minnesota, after a raid on a bank at Northfeld, Minn., in 1876 in the course of which Cashier Haywood was killed The Youngers were shot at many times in battles with a posse but finally were taken alive after a battle at Shieldsville, Minn.
 Cole and his brothers pleaded guilty and were sentenced to prison for life. They entered the penetentiary at Saltwater, Minn., and became model prisoners. Bob died in the peneten- tiary in 1889. Cole and James Young CT were paroled in 1901. The next year James shot himself, leaving a note ascribing his action to a refusal of the parole board to permit him to marry the girl he loved.
 After Cole was paroled he was forced by Minnesota law to live in that state for three years. Then he returned to Missouri and settled down in a vine covered cottage which he bought for a niece in Lees Summit, the scene of his boyhod days For a time he was connected with a show and later went on the lecture plat form, and became a good citizen.
 In August, 1913, Younger was con- verted to religion at revival meeting and became an active church werker.

HAYDEN PROPOSES TO LET WHITE MAN OEvEL0PE
 INDIANS COUNTRY

A bill was introduced in congress on February 28 by Congressman Carl Hayden that is designated to do away with the difficulties heretofore expe- rienced by those who have located mineral claims on Indian reservations or rather who have discovered such locations and have wished to make en- try therefor but have been unable to do so owing to the fact that the lands included were within the bondaries of a reservation.
 The bill, which is now in the hands of the committee on Indian affairs, provides that the secretary of the in- terior may lease to any person, firm or corporation "any part of the unal- lotted lands within any Indian reser- vation in the state of Arizona here tofore withdrawn from entry under the mining laws, for the purpose of mining for deposits of gold, silver, copper and other valuable metallifer- ous minerals"
 The locators of mining claims are given preferential rights to such leases and the leases shall be made for fifty years with prefential rights in the lessee to renewals in ten year periods.
 The lessees are required to pay to the United States for the benefit of the Indians, royalty (which shall be two per centum of the gross value of the output of the minerals at the mine, dug and payable at the end of each month succeeding that of the ex- traction of the minerals from the mine and an annual rental, payable at the date of such lease and annully thereafter on the area covered by such base, at the rate of twenty-five cents per acre for the first calendar year thereafter, fifty cents per acre for the second, third, fourth and fifth years respectively and s1 per acre for each and every year thereafter"
 The lessee is also required to ex- pend not less than s100 in develop ment work annually on each claim and the bill contains provisions for the forfeiture of the leases in the event of non-payment of rent or non-user of rights.
 It is claimed that the passage of this bill will open to use and develop ment some highly promising deposits which have, heretofore, been impos- sible of working.

IS AMERICA AS DEAR TO YOU?

None of the many stories that come to mind out of this war appeals to me more than that of Capt. Francis Gren- fell. He won the Victoria Cross for saving some guns at Mons.
 We were walking one day on ground overlooking the valley of the Thames, and he stretched his hand out toward the sweep of green fields and the hedges and woodland cut by the silver thread of the river, and said:
 "That is what we are fighting for. Think of what England has done for mel I ought to do all I can for her"
 Gle was recovering from wound at the time, and he remarked that probably he would "get it" when he returned to the front, and he did.) We went into the library of the house where he was staying, and he showed me diary that he had written on the retreat from Mons and through the HRHJlnS UH IHe AiSHe anu dBaih "s Ypres. However tired, every night he had set down a few lines of the days happenings, and more than once occurred the passage: "I am glad to do this for England" or simply, "For England"
 There was something eloquent in the pages of that litle book. The man was fine because of the absolute sub mission of self to an object-his coun- try's. He was finer because this was written secretly in his diary. His patriotism was not for parade. It was in his blood. Real preparedness includes such patriotism. It cannot exist with hyphen in it.
 America must be able to say: For America!" We must think of it, whether marching, drilling, fighting, or voting if we wish to make the most of our country. Saying "For Ameri- ca" does not mean that you are going to win.-Frederick Palmer in Golfers Weekly.
