BOB YOUNGER DYING. fRANZ BERNHARDT'S! | _ ba | The§Famons Outlaw Bae eee —_— St. Paul, Minn., June 12—Bob Younger, youngest of the three Missouri outlaws,who with the James boys, robbed the Northfield Bank and killed three or four people in 1875, now serving a life sentence, in Stillwater Prison. He isin the hos- pital and cannot live more thana few days. His former florid complexion has faded to an ashy paleness. His cheek bones stand out prominently and his whole faee is that of an invalid. He has lost much flesh, his arms and limbs are narrowed down al- most to boues and his hands are thin and sallow. He is but a shad- ow of what he was up toa year ago As he speaks his voice is husky aud he once in a while coughs. His steel-blue eye is yet bright and rest- less. He knows that he is far from well, but his iron will, so the attendants say, does not for an in- stant weaken, and he says he is sure he will be better. He has been in the hospital three weeks. Coleand Jim, his brothers in prison with him are very anxious that he should be sent to his home in Missouri, and a petition is in cir- culation asking the Governor to par- don him. Realizing his condition, many have expected he might be led to talk af the secrets of the past life of himself and his brothers. Many things of interest are supposed to be locked up in the keeping of the three, which nothing could ever draw from them. But up to the present time Bob has spoken nota word. His talk is the same that he has used during his long years of prison life aud he makes no sign that he has now or ever will havea word to say either by way of confess- ing the crimes which have been laid at his own and his brothers’ doors, or by way of freeing himself and his brothers from the dark load which has been placed upon them. jolesgent forthe Rockford and Aurora watches. in Gold, Silver and Filled Cases, very gueap.

Poole at the New- berry library, and immediately the floodgates of literary information were thrown open. The records show that floods, like panics, occur periodically. In 353 a flood occurred at Cheshire, Eng., in which 3,000 persons and innumera- ble cattle perished. Over 400 fami- lies were drowned when Glasgow was inundated. The Tweed over- flowed its banks and laid waste the country for thirty miles round in 936. A number of English seaport towns were demolished by inunda- tion in 1014. The overflow of over 400 acres of Earl Goodwin's lands in 1100 and the inundation of Flan- ders in 1100, of Winchester (Eng- land) in 1280, as well as all other floods, were eclipsed by the over- flowing of the Mense April 17, 1421.

This is owing to the temporary relinquishment or search- ing for the dead and clearing away the wreckage on the account of the discharge of all workmen at 6 o'clock last evening. New men have been coming in ali day to take the place of those that are leaving. Up to noon about 4,000 men had been put to work. Very few bodies were recoyered to-day because of the fact that work under the management of the state authorities has not yet been reduced toa thorough system. There are plenty of men here to do the work on hand, but only a small force was engaged at work on the wreck above the bridge. Three bodies were re- covered at that point, but none were identified. | Several bodies were al- so recovered at Kernville. Necessi- ties for vigorous measures to clear away the wreck becomes more ap- parent every day. There are stilla number of bodies there. Some of the business men have started again ona small scale, and it is hoped others will soon follow their example which will have a beneficial effect.

A paper to that effect is being cir- are is meeting with ready sig- aatures, both the grain and elevator men who were at loggerheads while the measure was pending before the ligislaure, signing it with a will. It is reported that a number of of the leading banks have signed it and that many grain men who at first favored the bill have changed their minds. The warehouse pro- visions are especially obnoxious. Mr Lewis stated to-day that grain men are in favor of state inspection, but that would be but one public eleva- tor in the city if the bill becomes a law. The truth appears to be that little interest is felt in the fate of the bill outside of the elevator own- ers. The mother country is not looked upon very hopefully or kindly by the children of herrealm. Canadian papers complain that their country seems to be regarded as a sort of penal colony by England. A young man who was convicted of larceny before a London magistrate a few days ago was let off on his friends promising to send him to Canada at once. President Cleyeland’s surplus will be rapidly reduced now. In response toa call from s Methodist congre- gation in California he contributed $5 toward the erection of a new church.
