D br aetauiL He Fought the James Boys; First Visit Here Since 1858 It Is generally considered to be some feat for a man burdened by seventy winters, to even walk up town once a day, but not so with Jehu Watson of Grant City, Mo. Watson arrived In Omaha early Thursday morning from Grant Clty a distance of about liS miles, after a hard ride on horseback. His visit marks the flrsfone here since 1S, and to tay that he was surprised when he entered the city would be putting It mildly. Watson came bore to deliver seven horses to Al. Dreeher. who will us, them for delivery purposes, and his only companion mas a small lad of Sbout 16 yesn". . When here last, he croseed the Missouri river on a horse ferry boat, and there m-ere precisely 3,000 fouIs here then. Council Bluffs was In lis Infancy, a little more than a trading post and well. Mr. Wat Mn's feelings could only find expres sion In the simple ejaculation, Ge Whilllkena" f Watson Is a civil war veteran, and has three ugly wounds on his body, but In spite of this. Is healthy and active. He did not seam a bit tired from hla long ride, and expressed his eagerness to visit Samson's den and enjoy himself with th metal men, the sheriffs and other persons here to attend th various conven tions. When asked to be photographed, he blushingly said that If he did it would be for th first, time In his life, and when he was finally posed In front of the camera. It was with the greatest effort that he was kept quiet enough to be snapped. "I fit th James boys In Mlseourey In my day, and I got a mark from Jess that will stay with me for life." Her he rolled back his sleeve hnd showed a jagged mark where a bullet from the gun of the famous bandit had cruelly torn his flesh. D. Bancker of Omaha beat Knox Taus sig of St. Louis, by default.
