IT begins to look as if several
large industrial concerns in our city
would in time be taken into the
trusts. The latest manufacturing
concern being the Harlan and Hol-
lingsworth Company. 1t is to be
hoped that this plant will not be
effected like the iron foundry which
formerly belonged to H. F. Pickles
located over Eleventh street bridge.
1t has been closed for some tine,
which threw some sixty or mora
hands out of work. Some time
trusts may be good thing. but not
always for the working man.

X. w. JESTER wrote Il very com
mon sense letter about the muzzling
of dogs to the editor of the Sunday
Star. He does not believe in plac-
ing muzzles on them in warm
weather, giving as his reason that
q dog perspires through his mouth,
and as consequence, must have its
tongue out. He advocates allowing
no dogs to run at large unless ac.
companied by their masters, the
dogs being in leash. The RElr'B-
LICAN would like to see the best
methods adopted by our city fathers
in dealing with the dog question.
We have seen muHIles put on dogs
whereby they could drink and eat
but could not bite a person. We
are OF the same opinion us Mr.. Jes-
ter. that the more we see of men,
the better we like dogs. The dog
Is a faithful frienl, but ut the same

Death of Mrs. John e. Fremont.

A death occurred in Los Angeles,
California, December 28th, which
was of much interest to many
people in Rockbridge. 1t was that
of Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont,
widow of General Fremont, the
Pathfinder. !" She had been for
some time critically i'll with pneu-
monia, and was rs years of age.
Mrs. Fremont was taken i'll on
Christmas morning. She grew
rapidly worse and soon lapsed into
Inconsistencies, from which she
never rallied. For the last three
years Mrs. Fremont had been
extren ely feeble, as result of a
fall in which she suffered a dislo-
cation of the hip, which had since
prevented her from walking.
Hardships and privations of the
Western frontier and life at the
courts of Europe form the two
extremes in the romantic career of
this remarkable woman.
A Virginian by birth, plunged
at IA into the brilliant society
which gathered about her father,
Senator Thomas H. Benton, in
Washington, she eloped at 16 with
the fascinating young lieutenant,
John C. Fremont.
Mrs. Fremont was q niece of the
late Governor James Mcdowell.
His two sisters married men famous
in the councils of the nation-eone
Thomas H. Benton, and the other
William Taylor. They were de-
scendants of Colonel James Nc.
Dowell, of Cherry Grove, who lived
and occupied hat farm two miles
west of Fairfield, and where Jessie
Benton was married to John c.
Fremont about 1910. The late
John Gibson of Timber Ridge
witnessed this marriage, and he
often told his impressions of this
beautiful woman. A sketch OF
Colonel James Mcdowell appears
on the outside of today's GAZETTE
which has additional interest OF
the account Of Mrs. Fremont
death.

Stopped Train for a Baby.
Richmond Times Correspondence

hlCillO1u liiico correspondence
Wednesday evening, December
oath, a young woman arrived in
Lynchburg from Lexington. She
had baby in her arms, and being
in hurry to catch the Norfolk
and Western train, she placed
the child in the arms of a man who
was standing near by, while she
went to have her baggage attended
to. Before she completed her task
the train pulled out, and looking
around and not seeing the man
with her infant, the mother began
screaming and running after the
departing train. Hundreds Of
people were on the platform at the
time, and they joined the mother
in the chase for the train, shouting
and yelling at the top of their
voices. Several policemen joined
in and finally the train was stopped.
The baby, however, was not on
board, but was still in the arms of
the obliging gentleman with whom
it had been left. He had walked
down the platform to exercise the
child and returned just as the
crowd came back from the futile
search,
