38 Years kgo.

CHICAGO-For 3 years. in an
Office labeled Chic Special Agent"
on the third floor Of the I. c. Central
station, Tim Kc.ihcr has Gazed out
on Michigan avenue and watched
horses and buggias replaced by
high-powered sleek autCs-and aWk-
ward, putting smoky locomotives
give way to speedy electric trains
and swank streamliners.
Now and then. n those years, the
tail and rangy Keliher has let his
thoughts 60 back to a day in rail-
roading now almost for9otten. the
days Of the western "badmen. and
daring raids on mail and express
cars.
For it was Tim Keliher and his
Union Pacific Mounted Rangers who
drove such notorious outlaws az
Butch Cassidy, Harry LongabauSh,
Black Jack Ketchum, FIat-Nosed
George Curry, the Logan brothers
Harvey, Lonny and Johnny-and
other members of the Infamous
wild Bunch" from the Union Pa
cific right Of way.
Days of Butch Cassidy.
In the western part Of Wyoming,
during the late nineties, Butch Cas-
sidy and his gang would sally forth
from the valley known as the Hole
in-the-WalT' and hold UP trains,
dynamite banks and rob stages.
Then, though pursued by posses,
they would dash back into their
mountain fastness, hide in impene-
trable caves and remain secure
from arrest.
1t was to this country, through
which passed the Wyoming division
of the Union Pacific, that Tim Keli-
her was called in 1880 to organize
the Union Pacific Mounted Rangers
in the hope Of exterminatiug the
outlaws. Kehher had been sheriff
Of Lincoln county. Nebraska, fer
eight years previous.
On his new job with the railroad.
Keliher established headquarters at
Cheyenne. He enlisted in his corps
Of 10 Rangers the best trailers Of
that region-and the surest shots.
with either rifle or revolver The
men were equipped with fast, tough
horses.
Then Keliher Quilted car for
their special use. Then, as soon as
word was received of a raid on one
of the u P. trains. the track was
cleared and the special rangers car
"highballed" over the line 10 the
scene of the robbery.
Write Different Stcry.
Where, before. possemen's horses
would return riderless after a pur-
suit of the outlaws into their noun
tain retreats, Keliher's rangers
wrote a different story into this
phase of frontier history ReIent-
lessly his men stuck to the trail.
Cassidy and his outlaws found the
going too rough. Such of his gang
as were not taken by the law left
the country in TIE few years that fol-
lowed Tim Keliher's appearance.
Butch Cassidy wasn't a cruel,
heartless killer" Keliher recalls,
land he would shoot a man only
when it was a case of defending
himself.
The real vicious killer of the
Wild Bunch was Harve Logan"
Keiher relates. He would shoot a
man just to see him culver. But
the days of the old Western train
robber and his mask and six-guns
are long gone-in fact, it's hard to
find any of the old West still alive"
1t was in 1910 that Keliher came
to Chicago as chief special agent
for the Illinois Central In the years
that followed he has taken part in
the solution Of many sensational
cases involving the railroad.
