PAUL, Oct. 0. James Younger formerly a member of the notorious James band of outlaws, which infest ed the Western country a quarter of a century ago, committed suicide yes terday by shooting. He left a letter to the press, In which he gives as a reason for his despondency over continued ill-health and separation from his friends. The suicide is sup posed to have occurred about 8 o'clock yesterday morning. Younger occu ' pied a room in a down-town block, and when be did not make his appear ance as usual yesterday search was made for him. About S o'clock yester day afternoon the door of his room was broken in and his dead body found, stretched on the floor beside the bed, a revolver clutched In his right hand. He had shot himself through the head and evidently haJ been dead for sev eral hours. An envelope containing a package of letters that had passed between Younger and a lady with whom he Is said to have been much in love was found on the bureau. The lady, who is prominently connected, is said to have reciprocated his affection, and it was reported at one time that they were to be married. The lady's rela tives raised strenuous objections to the yllLLIOIS OF vonErj " a weddln? and a further obstacle was the fact that It was pointed out that a paroled prisoner could not legally con tract in marriage. The couple deter mined to disregard the objections ot relatives and an effort was made to overcome the other obstacle to their marriage by securing from the state hoard of pardons a full pardon and restoration to citisenshlp. This effort failed and this. It is thought, had much to do with Younger's determlna tion to end his life. The lady Is said now to be in Boise, Idaho, for her health. SWEETHEART OP EX-COXVICT.

After the adanc guard of Russlan-dril'ed cavalry came a regiment of Infantry slouching along the road in exery variety of patched and tattered uniform, once sky blue, Some of them wore two shoes of dif ferent pattern, most of them none.

'When a mishap necessitated re packing a load In '.he middle of the road one got a glimpse of costly car pets, of tents with walls of many col ors, of robes of honor, silken embroid eries, quilted bedding. Here and there a silver ewer or piece of guidy French furniture, tied on loosely with a bit of string, kept clanking at the side of a mule.
