SHE SHOT TO KILL.
Jennie Whitfield Stays Her Para
mour in Caldwell County.
The Tough Daughter of a Tough Sire,

The Tough Daughter Of Tough Sire,
A killing occurred on Dec. 10, near
MCGOWAN, a station on the o. V. Rail.
road, just in the edge OF Caldwell
county. The locality is remote and
inaccessible one and the news Of the
killing did not reach the outside
world for several days.
1t was received Sunday by the KEN
TUcKAN's efficient correspondent in
the Scates' Mill district of this coun-
ty.
Jennie Whitfield shot and killed
Bud Adams, her paramour. The wo-
man was a daughter OF the notorious
John Chamblis who was killed by Il,
G. Hopper in 1888. Chamblis went
cunning for Hopper, but the latter
was as active as cat and ran under
the gun, knocked it out OF Chsmblis
hands and securing the weapon killed
the bully with his own gun. Hopper
was acquitted at his examining trial.
Jennie Chamblis married John Whit
field several years ago and she is now
about 80 years old. After living with
Whitfield some years, Bud Adams
"took up" with her and the two drove
Whitfield off and Adams has lived
with the woman. On the day men
toned Adams whipped one OF the wo-
mans children by Whitfield, which 30
enraged her that she picked up a re-
yolver and shot HIM without word.
He was instantly killed by bullet in
his brain. At last accounts no arrests
had been made.
The woman is homely and freckled,
tough in looks as we'll as in character
There would have been but little re-
gret il the whole set had been de-
stroyed.

THE COLORADO SNOW FLEA.

"a IL Very Small Iussct That Causes the
So-Caiisd "Wed snow"
The observing Colorado miner can.
not furnish you scientih; names. yet he
will tell you at once that rel snow Is
caused by the snow flea. The snow
fca Is very small. II would require
about fifty OF them TO equal their
larger brother OF the east in size.
A person walking upright might
think the snow covered by very fine
dust, but IL your eyes are good. and
you place your face within eighteen or
twenty inches of the snow, you can
easily discern the snow flea. Although
30 small as TO be almost impcrceptihle
to the naked eye, yet they nre most at
tive. jumping from twelve ~ fifteen
inches
To the naked eye they appear 10 be
dark brown In color, but under a good
microscope they would be found to be
a reddish brown During cold weather
they stay under the bark of trees, but
when II is nice. warm day, and the
sun shines brightly, you can find them
on the southern and eastern slopes of
the mountains, where they can get the
direct rays of the sun.
During the day they will ascend the
mountains, sometimes far above the
tim Der line. When the sun disappears
and II gets cold, the snow flea freezes
10 death. During the winter great num-
bers will be thus frozen, and their dead
bodies color the snow.
