The Railroad Raider

ON THE morning Of April u.
~ 1862, train stopped at Mariet-
ia, Ca, en- route from Atlanta to
Chattanooga. An unusually large
number of men passengers came
aboard, claiming they were refu-
gees from within the Yankee lines
and wanting to join the Confederate
forces. ss
Z When The train stopped at Big
Shanty for breakfast, James j. An
drews, citizen from Flemingsburg,
KY, and one of the large party Of
alleged refugees, cut away all but
three cars, climbed into the cab and
steamed away.
Capt. w. A. Fuller, who was IN
charge of the train, dashed to the
telegraph Office to warn the station
agents up the line but found that the
telegraph wires had been cut. An
drews really was the leader of a
group Of Union soldiers in civilian
clothes who started out to paralyze
traffic on the Western and Atlantic
railroad--one of the vital arteries
of Confederate transport.
Captain Fuller got handcar and
with couple of men started in
pursuit. But Andrews burned is
bridges, pulled up many sections of
track and placed several obstacles
along the right of way, all while
keeping ahead of his pursuers who
finally abandoned the handcar when
they were able to board a locomo-
tive.
About to be overtaken, Andrews
set fire to the last freight car, left
il on q bridge and ran into the
woods with his crew. Mounted mi
litia finally captured all of Andrews
party and he. with several others,
was executed as spy.

ADVENTUROUS
AMERICANS
By
Elmo Scott Watson
Elmo Scott Watson
The First Rebel

JAMES SMITH led the first upris-
y ing of American colonists against
England, drew the first blood in
actual battle and all this 10 years
before the Revolution began.
At the age of IS, young Smith
was captured and held prisoner
for four years by the Caughnawaga
Indians. During this time he not
only acquired their skill in wood
craft and their cunning in warfare
but also learned to hate the traffic
in whisky and rifles that both the
French and British were carrying
on with the Indians. He could see
the disastrous effects on the red
man of the white mans greed for
money.
Smith organized band of from
tiersmen called "Black Boys" in
1868. Their purpose was to keep the
drunk and bloodthirsty Indians out
of Conococheague valley. But two
years later, Smith decided that the
best way to fight them was to cut
off their source of supply for whis-
ky and arms. Accordingly, his
"Black Boys" held up a pack train
and burned the goods.
On May 6, 1865. platoon of Brit
ish Highlanders, members of the
Forty-second regiment of His Maj
esty's army in America-the famous
"Black Watch on the
town of Fort Loudon. Pa, to pre-
serve law and order and put this
lawless band of "Black Boys" in
their place.
But when the British soldiers
reached Smiths forces and Sgt. Nc
Glasham ordered them to "Halt!
In the kings name, haiti" pitched
battle followed in which the soldiers
were driven into the cabin of a GER
tain Widow Barr. The rebels kept
them there until the Britishers
agreed to march back to Fl. Loudon
from whence they came. And so
the truly first battle Of the Ameri-
can Revolution, fought 10 years be-
fore the famous battle of Bunker
Hill, was won by Americas first
rebel, James Smith.

Sky Pilot Of Deadwood

A MONG the thousands of adven-
turers who took part in the
gold rush to the Black Hills of South
Dakota in 1876 was Connecticut-born
Henry Weston Smith.
Smith arrived at Deadwood when
the town was at the height of its UNI
tanned glory. But he was not seek
ing gold. He picked rip roarin'
Deadwood to try out his preaching
talents.
He preached in the streets, but
received no money for it, support
ing himself by manual labor such as
cutting trees, chopping wood and fir
ing a sawmill boiler. Even his
preaching was not only spiritually
but physically difficult-he had to
shout at the top of his voice to be-
heard above the raucous calls of
the gamblers and entertainers.
On Sunday, August 20, 1876, after
his usual morning services in the
main street of Deadwood, he start
ed out for Crook City, 10 miles
away. He put his Bible in one pock-
ct, the copy of his sermon in an
other and pinned a note on his
cabin door that said, "Gone to Crook
City, and if God is willing, will be
back at 2 p. m.''
God wasn't willing. When about
halfway there, he was stalked and
killed by Sioux war party. For
some strange and unknown reason,
the Indians did not rob him or scalp
him, but crossed his hands peace
fully on his breast and put his
Bible in them. -

These gala vacation trips are
available from Miami on Satur-
days or Tuesdays, and pack all
the gayety of New York life and
all the thrills of summer cruis-
ing into one unforgettable holt
day.
The cruise voyage to New
York takes three days-days of
sports on breeze-swept play
decks, frolicking in an outdoor
pool, dancing to a fine cruise or
chestra, seeing moving pictures,
meeting gay shipboard COM
panions, enjoying comfortable
accommodations and flawless
food and service, and relaxing in
cool comfort as the ship speeds
over the Atlantic.
In New York, taxi service from
the pier to the hotel is provided
on the cruise ticket, and accom-
modations are already arranged

with, probably, many of the

Northward trip. Deft and UNI
obtrusive service, and the pleas
ant round of social activities
aboard the ship, make the home
ward cruise as brilliant memory
as all the rest of this unique
holiday.

The Garden Club has contri-
buted from its treasury the sum

A special meeting of the Key
West Garden Club was held on
Tuesday evening, August 9th, at
the Public Library on Duval
street, for the purpose of dis
cussing the sponsorship by the
club of two projects, street plant
ing and identifying and improve
ments for the Botanical Gardens.
The meeting was conducted in
formally, in the manner of an
Open Forum. Everyone was in
vited to state their views regard
ing the subject in hand, which
resulted in the putting forth of
some splendid ideas.
Mrs. j. d. MacMullen, presi-
dent of the Garden CLUB, ex-
planned that these two projects
had already been approved, and
were awaiting only sponsorship.
To put them into operation it
will be necessary to raise sum
of money locally, together with
various materials, and the WPA
will furnish the remainder.
The cooperation and contribu-
tons from the entire city are re-
quested. Not only will the beau
tifying of the streets by planting
shade trees be decided adj
vantage, but the number of men
TO be employed is considerable,
and the project will, if sponsored
for a year, run for that length of
time.
Concerning he Botanical Gar
dens, it is desired that they will
eventually become self-support-
ing, and be turned over to Key
West by the WPA. Certainly
these gardens are a great asset
to the city, and every effort will
be made to insure their con-
tinuance.
A committee consisting of A.
E. Peirce, chairman, Mrs. Hugh
Williams and Mrs. Wallace
Bryant Kirke will serve to raise
money for the furtherance of
these projects, and j. j. Trevor
will act as treasurer.
Several other comittees were
also appointed. On the Street
Planting Committee will be Will
liam Demeritt, Mrs. Wallace
Bryant Kirke and Mr.. Pittman.
The committee to locate trees
