STOPS IN TENNESSEE.
Backing of Train Prevented speech
at Athens.

Athens, Tenn. Sept. S.-President
Roosevelt arrived here at S:15 a. m.
and after a brief stop the train con-
tinued on to Knoxville. He was greet
ed here by a large crowd.
At Riceville, where a stop was made
for water, the President for the first
time since he started on his Southern
trip shook hands with those about his
car. 1t has been his custom to refrain
from Handwriting. but when man In
the crowd asked him to shake hands,
the President said:
''Well, this is small crowd ana
will shake your hands"
He told the people he had been over
the battlefield of Chickamauga and
said that if a man were a half decent
man he could not help becoming q, bet
ter citizen from such trip.
The crowd that greeted the President
at Athens wanted a speech.
"I am glad to be at the seat of
Grant University he said. Before
he could proceed, the train began to
back and a man in the crowd yelled,
why don't they stop this train?''
That is a very proper question,
answered the President.
At this point a boy had to be
pushed aside to prevent him from be-
ing run over.
"Theres the ubiquitous small boy
again." said the President. DO not
let us turn this car into a juggernaut. :"
Congressman H. B. Gibson of Ten
nessee and R. w. Austin, United
States marshal for the Eastern dis
trict of the state, boarded the train at
Chattanooga as a reception commit
tee from Knoxville.

Negro who Assaulted Mrs. Granger
Taken From Bailin by Mob.
Cordeie, Ga, Sept. s.-News reached
here at a late hour last night of the
lynching of a negro by the name of
Bill Mobley, near Wenona, a small sta
ton on the Georgia Southern and
Florida Railroad, about 1--WE miles
south of Cordele The negro on Sat
urday secreted' himself near the home
of Mr.. Granger, one of Dooly county's
most highly respected farmers, and
waylaid his little 12-year-old daughter,
Miss Pinky Granger, while she was
in company with two of her little
brothers, only a short distance from
them, and attempted that crime which
always calls for immediate sentence to
death. The screams of the little girl
attracted the attention of Mr.. J. R.
Freeman, who was fortunately for the
girl, coming home from his field, and
went to her rescue. Mr.. Freeman cap
tured the black f1end and delivered him
to bailiff who started him off to the
county jail A posse was at once or
ganized and made pursuit, overtaking
him and putting the negro to death
without judge or jury. This is the first
lynching ever had in this section of
Dooly county, but it has created among
the negroes considerable stir.

A B0ER HEROINE.
Gen. De La Rey's Wife SIN The
Field" For Eighteen Months.

Gen. De In Rey's Wife "In The
Field" For Eighteen Months.
From the London Daily News.
The party of Beers who have come
to England with the generals include
many who have had exciting expert
ences during the war. In talking to
them you realize that it has been quite
a much a woman's war as a mems on
the side of the Beers. Perhaps, indeed,
the most permanent fact that will sur
vive in history will be the part that
has been played by the women. Take
the case of Mrs. De La Rey. She has
been actually lin the field" for eigh-
teen months. She does not look like it.
She just looks a kindly middle-age
mother of family who has lived quiet
all her life.
1t all arose in this way. In the
course of guerrilla" war Gen. De La
Rey would occasionally come and visit
his wife in a manner that perplexed
and annoyed Gen. Methuen perhaps
more than anything else happening in
the war. 1t certainly must have been
annoying. but perhaps the best plan
would have been to have grinned and
borne it. Unhappily, this was not the
rule with the British general when he
found himself crossed by Boer women.
II was intimated TO Mrs. De La Rey
that she must pledge herself not to
give lodgings to her husband. Now.
Mrs. De La Rey is "A plucky woman,
and a devoted wife. She refused. LAS
long as / live" she replied, Il shall
give lodging 10 my husband when he
comes to me" VERY well. then, Lord
Methuen intimated. you must go into
camp" But Mrs. De La Rey refused

will spend the night at Hot Springs,
where the train will be sidetracked.
The train is scheduled to arrive in
Asheville at $3.50 in the morning. Short
ly after 10 o'clock the President will

Morristown, Tenn, Sept. S.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's train stopped here
about five minutes at s:45 O'Clock to-
night and the President found a large
crowd waiting to greet him. He said
he was glad he had come into the state,
and was especially glad that he had an
opportunity to visit the great battle
helds around Chattanooga. He refer
red to the large number of Tennesseans
who have made names for themselves
in the nations history and said that
the greatest admiral the country has
had in the last ninety years-Farragut
was a native of Tennessee.

by President.
Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. S-President
Roosevelt braved the elements late this
afternoon, and in defiance of a hard
transform was driven through streets
lined with people to stand on Main
avenue nearly mile from the depot
where he spoke to $1,000 people who
stood in quiet while drenching rain
poured down upon them.
The train arrived promptly at 8
o'clock and was met by a large re-
ception committee, the Sixth Regiment
Band, and a battalion of militia. After
the President had stated that he could
stand the storm to see the people if the
people could to see him, carriages
We're taken, and, preceded by the
troops, the procession moved up the
main business street to the speaker S
stand erected in front of the Woman
Building. All along the line of March
the President stood with barred
head bowling to the cheering
throngs. Introduced by Congressman
Gibson of this district as man who
combined all the sterling traits of
character of Andrew Johnson, Andrew
Jackson and James Knox Polk, Presi-
dent Roosevelt spoke as follows:
1t has been an inspiration to come
through East Tennessee to-day as /
have. l am sorry for my sake that the
rain should have come at this particu-
lar moment, but you needed it and
am glad you have got it. (Applause.)
Yesterday l spent the time going

CUBANS FAVOR THE LOAN.
The Congress Eager for the 35,OOO,-
900 Bond Issue.

Havana, Sept. S.-The matter of Gu
ban loans was discussed at length in
the House of Representatives to-day A
majority of the members were clearly
in favor of one loan of $35, 600, 900 and of
giving President Palma the option of
raising the entire loan at once, or of
raising it in two parts, one of
$S1,000,000, and the other of S4,0O0.G00.
1t is proposed that provision be made
to meet the interest on the loan and
establish a sinking fund by setting
aside 10 per cent. of the custom re-
ceipts, and by putting a tax on alco-
hol. It is estimated that the latter
measure would produce $1,000. 900. The
idea of establishing a lottery to meet
the loan has been abandoned.

Story is BluBtiy Denied by
3 High Official of
the Santa Fe

Ttpeka, Kas., July 11-On Sunday
morning the Associated Prees had a
stort from Guthrie n regard TO the
extensive Improvements which the
Sanla Fe was to make at Pauls Valley.
According to the story the road had
bought sixty acres OF land there in
addition to considerable other proper
~ for the purpose Of establishing
division and terminal facilities there.
It was also stated that the Atchison.
Topeka and Santa Fe had taken over
the tracks Of the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fe from Purcell to Pauls Valley
making the latter point practically a
center for the southern lines of the
Santa Eo.
4 d. E. Cain, assistant general mana
I ger of the Santa Fe, who is soon to
become general superintendent OF the
western grand division, was asked
about the truth of the story yesterday.
There is nothing in it at all, he
said. "As for the reported change OF
ownership Of the tracks from Purcell
TO Paurs Valley, there would have to
be change in the laws of the state of
Texas in order to let us purchase any
Of the G. C. and S. F. tracks. AS for
the purchase Of land in Paul's Valley,
! guess there is plenty of it there that
could be bought cheap enough.
Whatever Improvements there may
be made there viii he only in connec-
tion with the new line which is to
have its connection with the mGiu lire
n that point don't pelieve there
will be any terminal facilities estab
lished there though, on that account.
You know there are terminals already

operation the trains will run on down
