PROMINENT MAN DEAD.
Mr.. j. S. Mathes Succumbs 10 Heart
Trouble.

John s. Mathes died at his home in
Jonesboro at ~ O'Clock last night, aged
about So years. His death resulted
from organic heart trouble.
The South has produced few men
with the qualities Of mind that were so
distinctively manifested in the life of
John s. Mathes. He came of family
of thinkers and people given to inves-
tigation and research, and he was in
that respect the most distinguished of
all Of them. He was the youngest OF
six children-five sous and one daugh-
ter-born to Alexander and Orpha
Wood Merritt Mathes, His father was
one of the sturdy pioneers, man
whose patriotism and whose high re-
gard for intellectual. attachments made
him an ideal citizen. His career is as
ISOLATED with the history Of East Ten.
nesSee and his life was spent under the
shadow of the enduring institutions
founded by Rev. Samuel Doak, d. D.,
the distinguished pioneer Of education
in all the goodly land west of the Ale
gheny Mountains, for it is q matter of
history that DR.. Doak founded the first
chartered institution of learning west
of those mountains, and that was
Washington College, an institution
that lives and fourishes to-day, with O
history more splendid than all other
Southern institutions, having been the
alma mater of twenty -four noted men
who at one and the same time were
co nspicuous in the upper and lower
houses Of the United States Congress,
respectively.
1t wos near this institution in Wash
ington County, Tenn, that John s.
Mathes was born. Naturally inclined
to research, that college co immunity
was an inspiration TO his young mind.
Although reared on farm, and his
earliest efforts being devoted to agri-
culture, he developed in his youth q
fondness for historical research. Not
only was he interested in all that had
past, but always manifested lively
interest in current history, and what
entered his mind never escaped. Judge
Samuel J. kirkpatrick, who was close
ly associated with him as a fellow
townsman, in later years. and who, in
fact, had known him since he was q
young man. says that he seemed to be
a depository for the detailed facts Of
history. He absorbed the current his.
tory Of his day, and no part of it ever
escaped from his memory. "His, .
said Judge kirkpatrick, twas a most
remarkable memory. He never forgot
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1905-03-16

anything of value, names, faces and
datet-in fact, anything associated
with the history of his time, he never
forgot. From childhood he was a stu
dent, so that no one who knew
him intimasely never wondered Of hip
knowledge Of history. nor at tho fact
that he knew more of the details of the
history Of his state than perhaps any
other man OF his dey."
Outof a wonderful fund Of historical
information, Mr.. Mathes wrote for the
Nashville Banner history Of the Gov.
ernors of Tennessee, and in this Sc
ries of articles presented much inter-
esting history that had not been
published pnior to that time. This Sc
ries of articles ran back to the days of
John Sewer, the first Governor of the
state.
In his later pear yoers-for he was
active to the time of his last illness-he
prepared and had published many
interesting sketches of historical per
sOnages, relating especially to some OF
the Presidents of the United States
and to interesting incidents of their
respective administrations, including
many matters that had never be-
fore been publiehed.
1t was stated in the foregoing that
Mr.. Mathes' father wrs one Of the stur-
dy pioneers His mother was Orpha
Wood Merritt, relative OF Gen. Wes-
ley Merritt,
The subject of this sketch was edu-
Gated at Washington Co lege, where
his habits of study and research were
begnn. He was strong Unionist,
thus having the spirit that possessed
most of the mountaineers of East Ten
nessee, so that when the war came on
instead of enlisting in the Confederate
service, he slipped through the lines
and made his way to Clay County,
Mo-, where he joined the federal forces
, He was never formally mustered int,
the service, however, but made his way
back South as the Federal forces ad
vanced. following the civil war Mr.
Mathes settled in Jonesboro, where he
: entered the drug business.
He maintained this business as lone
as he lived, and between the moments
he was waiting on his customers
: he kept up his research. and much o.
. his writing was done behind the count
err. Mr.. Mathes was twice married, hi
first wife being. Miss Anna Bowel,
daughter of the late DR.. Bowel
and sister of Stephen A. Bowel, |
well known newspaper writer of uppe
Esst Tennessee. To this union wer,
born two daughters, Miss Essie Math

An IndiSputable
SAFE INVESTMENT

The material progress which Our
country is now, and has been making
for the past decade of years, naturally
brings to the surface numerouSschemes
of the "get-rich-quick character that
benefit only the promoters of such, at
the expense of innocent investors.
In this age of genuine prosperity
with every legitimate business BOOM
ing, wages high, work in abundance,
giving employment to all willing to
earn, and products of the farm bring
ing best prices; there is little or no
excuse for one not to join the army
OF money-makers.
The first and safest investment to
make is to become reader of the
CINCINNATI ENQUIRER, the greatest
and most reliable newspaper in the
United States. With the facts, truth
and information CLEANED from its col
umns, one may become well qualified
to reach out and secure his share of
profit that always accrues from invest
ments intelligently made.
The WEEKLY ENQUIRER costs but
one dollar for one years term. The
SUNDAY ENQUIRER costs you two dol.
lars for year. The DAILY ENQUIRER
q issues week. you get for fourteen
dollars year.
Without the aid of first class
newspaper, success in any enterprise
becomes problematical. For ten cents
you can secure sample copy of each,
