I Arthur Wallace- I’rnrh. Old Bandit Tells of Famous Raid in Civil War. I'once City, Okla., Oct. 16,-“Dad” Hallidsy, a teaming contractor, one of the few oil field men of the early days left, has juat returned from Lee's Sum mit. Mo., where he visited his old-time friend, Cole Younger, the last remain ing member of the famous gang of robbers who were led by the James hoys. After serving twenty five years in the Minnesota State prison, Younger went to Missouri twelve years ago, and over two years ago, on the anniversary of the Lawrence raid, joined the Chris tian church. Lent with years and facing a death from which there would he no escape by a Winchester light, as in the old days, he told llalliday that he did not believe he could have lived his life differently even if he had so chosen. According to “Dad" Holliday, Young er said of himself: "There was nothing in my life so I'ventful as my part in the raid on Law rence during the Civil War. There is nothing that ever happened that was so misprinted in literature and in his tory. “My father was opposed to the war and had friends tin both sides, hut was shot down in cold blood and robbed by a gang of freebooters as he was driving home from Kansas City. That day changed my whole life. It filled my heart with a lust for vengeance. “I was nineteen the day we started from (Backwater. Mo., about 300 strong the Quantiell hand, I mean. It was Aug. 26, hsii,'!. I was a lieutenant. When we reached a hill in sight of Lawrence we learned from an old hog- feeder lhat there were ,'IIHJ regular Fed eral troops in Lawrence and .‘1(H) mili tiamen. 'They outnumber us two to one,’ said Quantrell, ‘but we can whip them.’ “And sure enough, soon we came upon them. There were no guards, anil we tore open the lUips of their tents and killed them as fast as our guns would work. We lost only four dead and three wounded. “We rode through the town and then rode awHy. Later we fought for twen ty-four hours with pursuers who had organised. They followed us until we were among friends in Missouri. "That is the truth of the famous raid on Lawrence, often called the bloodiest episode of the border warfare between the Missouri Southerners and the North erners from Kansas. It started my ca reer as an outlaw. "The remaining years of the wur were busy ones for me and my threo brothers. Mohs several times were formed to lynch us, hut each time our good marksmanship drove away the would-be lynchers. “In the early 70's the escapades of the James hoys in robbing bunks,” said the old-timer, getting warmed up to his subject, "attracted nation-wide at tention, and we got credit for being in many of these when really we were hundreds of miles away. They kept ac cusing uj until they drove us to it. "We became civil outlaws when four Chicago detectives attempted to arrest me and my brothers, Jim, John ami Hob. We heard the detectives were coming ami we rode out to meet Ihem. It took only a little shooting to make them turn their burses the other way, ami they rode back to Chicago as fast as they could. “The hunt for the Younger Itoys went on, and to elude the hunters l went to Florida and lived under an assumed name. While staying at Jacksonville 1 • pielled a negro riot, and some of my friends in Missouri tried to get the Leg islature to pass an amnesty bill, so that l could come back and not have to face arrest for escapades during the war, hut that failed. "One day while sitting in a hotel 1 overheard a conversation that Con. Hon Huller of the Union army had taken back from the South $300,000 in cash and had it in a hank in Northtield, Minn. Indignation rose in my rebel heart; 1 believed it was loot. “1 sought out Frank and Jesse James and plans for the robbery were laid. There were eight in the party. “A buttle of whiskey kept the rob bery from bei-ig a success. I didn’t touch it myself, but Hob did, and the men under him did. When they walked into the Northtield Hank they wire drunk. They disobeyed my instructions not to shoot to kill, and they took the life of the cashier of the bank. They forgot to close the door and were seen from the street. There was a carnival in town that day and the streets were crowded. “Five of us tried to keep r IT that crowd while the other three did the rob bing, but we were hard pressed. Some one bhw what was going >>n in the hank and shouted that it was being robbed. I called to the boys in the bank to come out, but they were slow and the whole town was shooting at us before we got started. “All of us were hit as we rode away, but, by jumping from wounded horses and riding double, we managed to get out of town. For two weeks we eluded them, but at last they surro nded some of us in a swamp between St. James and Madelia and I saw that the jig was up for us. The James boys had separated from us and made their escape success fully. “We decided that we could not rur- render, but that it would be almost sure death to do what was left to do. We could wait, however, until the pursuers were right on top of us, then break through and try to shoot our way to safety. Not one of the boys was will ing to surrender, so we tried this plan. “The pursuers shot all of us, though, before we could get through. Ihadelev. on wounds, and the others were nearly as bad. “No three men who ever went into the Minnesota penitentiary were so closely watched as we three during the fi rat year of our terms. Hrother Hob just wilted away and died.” "There ore many people who look upon the Younger boys as desperadoes, murderers and bad men," concluded llalliday. “Gun fighters they were, but no truer men ever lived than those brothers. I firmly believe that every one of them would have made a good citizen if he liud been in normal cir cumstances. ” Minister Gives Testimony. The Rev. C. M. Knighton, Havana, Fla., writes: “For three months I suf fered intense pain in kidneys and hack, which at times laid me un entirely. I , read of Foley’s Kidney Pills, and after; trying various remedies without result. I I decided to try the Foley treatment. I | was relieved almost with the tirst dose, and it is a fact that I used only 11 bot tles when all of the pains disappeared. 1 am f)."i years of age and now feel like a young man again. ” J. F. Lee Drug Co. Notes From Western Baptist As sociation. Chrintinn Index. The reports on Christian education, in cluding ministerial education and pas toral support, provoked some very in teresting discussions. The association has four ministerial students in the seminary. Two of these are the sons of Dr. J. S. Hardaway, of the Central church, Newnan, and a third is W. K. Fuller, of Moreland. A new student is to be entered this term. The asso ciation gave support to Bro. F’uller last year, and something like $300 was subscribed by individuals and churches for his support the current year. The collection for this purpose was one of the high points in the session of the as sociation. One of the most touching scenes the writer has witnessed in many years, if not in his whole life, was the closing moment of the sission. Bro. J. B. Ware, who was elected treasurer of the association for the thirty-ninth time at this session, and who is in his both year; Rev. 11. S. Rees, who has been a prominent figure in the association for two generations, and he is about the same age; Bro. John D. Simms, of Newnan, who is in his Mth year and never missed a session; and Judge Al- van I). Freeman, who has passed his 70th mile-post and has for many years been an honored leader in the associa tion. upon renuest stood on the plat form and received the greetings of the brethren as the parting hand was ex tended. It was a great pity that Bro. Levi Ballard, who was present on the first day but did not return the second day. was not present to take his stand with these honored sires of th® association. Perhaps there are not in all the country five belter preserved men, more active, or with broader vision, than these honored brethren. They are right abreast of the times with the youngest men in the body. They are towers of strength in the association, and their influence for good will be greater two generations from now than it is at present. Matrimonially speaking, a baseball catcher isn't always a good catch. THE HEART How It Acts In Every Day Life The human lie-iri. i i a healthy matt weighs lint eleven ■ unices.

What can be said of this inestimable creature that lias not already been said? The language of panegyric would bo exhausted before h s excellent fidel ity, his courage, his vigilance, his grat itude, his generosity, each the theme of merited praise, win our love and re spect. The favorite of edildren. the chosen companion of women, the watch and guardian of our homes, tlv guide of the blind, the participator of man’s excursions by land anti sea, the de fender of the shepherd’s fold, the de tector of the thief and robber, and the fleet courser that transports the Eski mo in his sledge over the Arctic wastes of snow. If such a benefactor to man has not a special claim to his protection and kindness, nay, to affectionate regard, what has? He ventures life and limb in our service; he explores the moun tain-waste and faces the wintry temp est in search of the traveler that has been overwhelmed by the snowdrift; he springs into the foaming torrent to rescue its threatened victim from de struction; he breasts the boisterous surges of the ocean to convey a rope to the shipwrecked mariner, by which he achieves their deliverance; he recog nizes his beloved master after twenty years’ absence, and expires at his feet in a paroxysm of joy at his return.
