"A brief visit to the Cumnock mines, it
is learned that thirty-nine people We're
killed by the recent terrible mine dis
aster AS the result of this calamity
there were left twenty-one widows
with about sixty children. This in
formation, said Mr.. Pullen, came from
the superintendent Of the mines, who
is in a position TO know the facts in
the case. Several of the widows with
their children have recently left for
the north, having been helped by their
friends to depart. Close to the mines
are about fifteen widows with more
tina. thirty children, and only a
few mnes distant are other widows
with their children. They are in very
destitute circumstances and the timely
relief given will prove Of the greatest
benefit TO them. "All the people,
said Mr., Pullen. feel the deepest graf
itude to the people of Raleigh for
their substantial proof of their kind
ness in the way Of provisions and mon
ey."
More money and clothing will be
forwarded in a few days to the com
mittee at Cumnock.
Mr.. Pullen stated that he was cor
daily received by the committee and
the superintendent of the mines. a
brief visit was paid TO the homes Of
the people and their condition eX-
anined into, and the conclusion was
quickly formed that any aid given
will be worthily bestowed, The coGi-
mittee at Cumnock consists of w. j..
Tally, James Kissell and w. y. Gum
ter.
ANY contributions sent them will be
gratefully acknowledged.

HIS MIND A BLANK.
I his Fellow Wore Tag, But Didn't
Even Know His Own Name.

He had vacant look on his face
as he sat with folded hands in the
Union Depot yesterday afternoon.
What are you going?" asked a
curions depot habitue.
The man shook his head.
Then there was an extended dia-
logue:
What's your name
II don't know"
Who were your parents2"
Il don't know who they We're"
Where did you come FROM
II can't tell YOU
Where are you going??''
II don't know"
But the parsonage pointed TO tag
one of those pasteboard tags that
shipping houses use.
On the tag was written a request TO
the railroad conductors to see the man
safely to Winston.
A policeman conducted him from the
depot to the train and saw him off.
Then the conductor took charge of
him.
Steward Crawford, of the Asylum,
was asked if he knew the man.
He didn't come from the Asylum
here" he replied.
Nobody at the station knew who he
was or where he came from.

that fights going TO get hotter, but
it's not going to hurt the party. We
Republicans will be satisfied if any

Tom Settle is not going to dictate TO
us. Tom Reed would make "A good
many more friends in this State II
somebody besides Tom Settle was run
ming his campaign here"
Settle is as ambitious us Julius
Caesar" he continued, warming up TO
his subject. ''IIe usurps the leadc1ship
of the Republican party, tries to as
sumo it Without any demand from the
people. But that won't continue"
LET me draw you parallel be-
tween two young men" he said. Now
look at Marshall Mott. He is promis-
ing enough for any young man, but
he's conservative. He's progressing,
but he's not pushing himself forward
out of all reason. And the Republi-
cans will be heaping honors on him
when Tom Settle is forgotten, if Tom
keeps on at the game he's playing.
THE people are going to select their
leader, and they don't expect the leader
TO select himself.
This Settled ritchard fight you
hear so much talk about is not SO
much fight between Reed and Me
KinIey in this State as it is a fight
against Tom Settles self-constituted

A, WILLIAMS DEAD
The Oldest Citizen of Raleigh
Passed Away Yesterday.
LIFE NEARLY A CENTURY LONG,
Reached from the Fall OF Napoleon Al
most to the Twentieth Century
A Short Sketch of An
Eventful Life.

Mr.. Alfred Williams is dead. This
venerable and respected citizen of
Raleigh passed into the Great Beyond
at $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
lie died quietly and peacefully at his
residence on Fayetteville street in
this city.
Last Sunday he was taken with a
severe cold and went to bed on its
account. But there were no serious
symptoms until Wednesday afternoon,
when acute bronchitis ensued. He
grew worse rapidly until he passed
away yesterday afternoon.
The time and place of the funeral
service will be announced later,
Mr.. Williams would have been
ninety-one years old June 10, 1896.
He was probably the oldest citizen OF
Raleigh, certainly the oldest resident
of prominence. He was born in
Franklin county June 10th, 1905
When little boy (as he sometimes
told his friends), he saw the troops
mastering and marching away to the
Mexican war. And he remembered
distinctly how the news of the battle
of Waterloo reached this section, and
what sensation it created.
His life has so wide a space in the
history of events. that it almost touch
es the boundary of two centuries
from the downfall of Napoleon al
most to the independence of Cuba. In
that time nearly every invention that
adds to our convenience, comfort. safe

CANE TO RALEIGH N ~.

Upon the death Of his father, in
1921, Mr.. Williams came to Raleigh
and entered the drugstore of Ran
dolph Webb as clerk. Four years af-
forwards he bought an interest in the
business, and two years thereafter
bought Mr.. tyebb's interest, and be-
came sole proprietor. Later the late
DIR. II. j. Haywood, an eminent physi-
elan, was admitted to partnership,
and the firm of Williams and Hay
wood founded. For nearly sixty years
it was the best-known drugstore in
the State.
In 1885 the magistrates Of Wake
county elected him clerk of the court.
In 1886 he was elected to the same
position by the people. After this he
positively declined "a reelection.
In 1856 he withdrew from the drug
business, and was succeeded by his
brother, Mr.. Ruifin Williams.
In 1854 he formed a partnership with
the late Thaddeus Melee and engag-
ed in the dry goods business, the firm
being successful until the war came
on in 1862.
In 1867 he established a bookstore
and later added to book-selling the
business of publishing. In 1879 he adj
mitted Eugene &, Harrell as a part
ner in this business, and about eight
years ago sold the entire business to
Messrs Harrell and John y. Neathery.
He then retired from active life.
Since that time he has devoted his
attention to the care OF the large prop
erty he owned in Raleigh and else
where.
WHEN SEIZED By SOLDIERS.
While living on farm six miles
west of Raleigh, in 1865, he was seized
by gang of Federal soldiers, who
placed a rope around his neck, drew
their pistols and told him they would
kill him If he didn't give them certain
information they were after, He was
perfectly calm ard told them he would
never tell them what they wanted
him to tell. At last they found no a
mount of threats or punishment could
open his lips, and they let him alone.
HE WAS TWICE MARRIED.
In 1929 Mr.. Williams married Miss
Caroline Eliza King, daughter Of u. >.
King, then clerk of the court OF Wake
county, and granddaughter OF John
King, one of the counsel OF ten that
composed the first Methodist confer
| ence ever held in America, having met
at Philadelphia, in 1878.
In 1850 he was married 10 Mrs
| Sarah A. Stone, widow of the late DAVID
| A. Stone, who survives him.
He had only one child, by his hrs'
| wife-the widow of DIR. +. Burke hay
| wood. She survives him.
| A CONSISTENT BAPTIST.
| Mr.. Williams was, and has been foi
| many years, a consistent member OF
| the Baptist church, and one of the pill
lars in the First Baptist church here
He was kind and benevolent, ano
| gave in Christian charity.
No citizen of Raleigh was more
highly esteemed or more universally
respected.
He dealt in frmness and honesty
with his fellow men, and they gave
him their confidence.
OF all who knew him, there is no
| one who will not regret that he is ne
more.
