rydon, (La.) bank, 1871, SIC, 900
The Younger brothers were captured
in Minnesota, after raid on a bank
at Mortified, Mimi, in 1876. They
pleaded guilty and were sent up fol-
life. Bob Younger died in prison in
1889. Cole and James Younger were
paroled in 1901. The latter COM
mitted suicide the following year be-
cause, he said, the Parole board re-
fused to permit his marriage to the
girl of his choice. After living in
Minnesota the required three years
Cole purchased a cottage near Lees
Summit, and made it his home. In
1913 he was converted and became

Casey county Republican convention

an ideal wife and mother and a sin
cere Christian. She was one of the
most devoted members of the First

Truly good woman has gone to a
rich reward. The deceased is sur
vived by the husband, j. Beecher
Adams; two children, Felix Adams
and Miss Elizabeth Adams; her moth
er, Mrs. j. c. Johnston; one half-sis-
ter and brother, Miss Pearl John
ston and Mr.. Forest Johnson, all of

WILHITE MAY BE PARDONED.

A dispatch from Frankfort Tues
day had this to say regarding a pro-
posed pardon for a former Stanford
man: Samuel w. White, former
controller of the city of Louisville,
who has been in the reformatory
since October, 1914, serving a term
of from two to ten years for hypothe-
eating bonds belonging to the city,
has renewed his application for a
pardon and Gov. Stanley has the case
under consideration. No action was
taken today, but the belief is general
that the Governor is giving the petit
ton favorable consideration and will
act on it this week. Letters and tel
egrams by the hundreds, supporting
the petition, accompanied the appli-
cation. Acting Mayor Miller, of
Louisville, and the prosecuting officer
have given assurances that they will
not oppose the pardon, and Mayor
Buschemeyer, at Hot Springs, will be
communicated with.

A RATHER EXPENSIVE "BUss."

A dispatch from Frankfort says
that E. Webb, teacher of Russell
county, fined $500 and sentenced to
100 days in Jail for OBTAINING and
kissing Fannie Carter, was pardoned
by the governor of the To-day Jail
sentence. Immediately following the
osculatory offense, Joe Carter, the
girls father, beat Webb with his fists
cut him with knife, shot him in the
hand and knocked him unconscious
with the butt of the revolver, and,
Webb declared, "called him out of
his name" The evidence showed
that Webb's intent went to further
than the kiss and the Governor
thought the punishment already re-
ceived amply fit the crime.

he DdScDdli team mas Deen getting
in some good practice and shows up
we'll on the field. Already seven
games have been scheduled and a
good many more are hoped for. The
first game of the season will be play
ed on the local field, March 81, with
the Hustonville boys. The admis-
sion to the game will be 15c and 25c,
and as the Athletic Club is a little
behind in a, financial way, a good
crowd will be appreciated very much.
The Hustonville team is composed
of experienced players, and as they
have been getting in much good prac-
tice, and will no doubt put up one
of the hardest fights to be seen on
the local diamond. S. HI. S. will
journey to Danville the following day
and do battle with the strong d. & d.
team of that place.
The following games have so far
been scheduled:

The dates for the return game of
the D. & D. and Mt Vernon teams
have not yet been decided upon, but
will be played the early part of April.
1t will no doubt seem strange to
many of the Stanford fans that the
first team of Centre College will play
the local team, as it has never been
customary for college and university
mines to schedule games with high
schools, but Centre is scheduled to
play the strong ST. Mary's team the
following day, and arranged this
game with the local boys, in order to
be in tip top shape for their stronger
opponents.
