SAD AND TRAGIC DEATH.
Young Lady Formerly Of AsheviIIe
Meets Death in Washington
While out Horseback
Riding.

News has been received here of the trag-
Ic death of Miss Jennie LOWE Goodlake in
the mouth of Silver Creek canyon. one
mile from Keller. in the state of Washing
ton. Miss Goodlake met her death on the
afternoon of Sunday, July 8. shortly after
. o'clock. The announcement of the
death of Miss Goodlake will come as a
shock to many people in AshevlIle and
Biltmore who knew the young woman.
Miss Goodlake was born in Huntsville,
Washington Territory, on March 10, 1884.
Subsequently the young woman removed
to Biltmore with her parents where she re-
sided for several years and attended the
Vanderbilt school in Biltmore village
She was popular young girl and made
many warm friends while residing in this
section. She later removed to Washing
ton and was living at Wilbur, Washing
ton, when she met her death in most
tragic and peculiar manner. The follow
ing account of the accident that caused her
death has been received here:
"Miss Goodiake and Miss Garwood
started for a horseback ride about %. m
Sunday evening for the purpose of meet
ing a fishing party up the river. There
are two means of egress from Keller up
the San Poll river north, one that is known
as the upper road, that is. on the east side
of the river at the upper end of Keller
avenue at the north end of town. In or
der to avoid fording the river the ladies
took the upper road. About fifty feet this
side of small bridge over Silver Creek
there is a very bad piece of road caused by
seepage from spring, 1t is usually very
miry. When they reached this mudhole
Miss Garwood went through first urging
her horse with a quirt. Miss Goodlake
started to follow and when about half way
through complained of her horse being
stuck in the mud and appealed to Miss
Garwood for assistance Miss Garwood
tbrned her horse and started to her assist
ance. At this juncture the little horse be
gan to struggle and got his feet crossed in
the mud, lost his balance and keeled over
tie bank pinning the unfortunate girl be-
9neath him and between tive logs She pitt
eously appealed for assistance and Miss
Garwood sprang from her horse and raised
the animal off her but was unable to ex-
tricate her from beneath the horse. She
died in few moments. The force of the
fall broke her back just below the neck.
With the kindly assistance of Mr.. Rags
dale and Joseph Montgomery the body was
removed from beneath the horse and taken
into town where those who knew and loved
her well performed the many kind offices
necessary. -Gazette-New

No Dimes Being Coined.

The following item from The Detroit
Free Press, of Detreit. Mich, has the fol-
lowing interesting story about an old
friend of the people:
"No dimes are now being coined. be-
cause the Philadelphia mint is closed for
repairs. This is the only mint which COINS
dimes. Comparatively few dimes are be-
ing presented for redemption at the sub
treasury. because coin rolling company
has been redee ming them from railroads
and retail merchants.
"Hence the treausry is unable to meet
the demands for dimes made upon it, and
the coin rolling company has practically
established a corner in them at what
amounts to premium.
Next month, however, the Phila-
delphia miut will be reopened and an ex-
ira force will be put to work cOinlng dimes
about August 1st, and will be kept at it
until the country has an adequate supply"

REV. ]. P. SCRUGGS.
He Accepts a Call From the Mid.
way Baptist Church.

Last Wednesday evening Rev. j. P.
Scruggs rendered his resignation as
pastor of the Columbia Baptist church
to take effect June LIST, of this year.
This action was due to call made by
the Baptist Church, of Midway, which
Mr.. Scruggs felt was best for him to
accept as he could give his entire time
to the one church instead of three, as
he must do here. In notifying the
church of his intention to withdraw
from the work here and to accept the
call from the Midway Church, Mr..
Scruggs showed that he regretted to
leave his work at this place, although
he felt justifable inmaking the change.
The announcement of the change came
as great surprise to nearly every
member of the church, and in truth is
deeply regretted. Under his passionate
good will and brotherly love prevails to
a remarkable degree and the future
seems laden with continuation OF
good. For nearly three years Brother
Scruggs has preached to the people OF
this section, and has been faithful in all
his pastoral work. AS an able, faithful
minister and pastor he stands well
in the front rank and his departure is
not only regretted by the members OF
his churches, but extends to the entire
people of our town, who prize HIM
highly for his abilities and his manly,
Christian virtues so faithfully and per-
sistently lived.
The church at Midway, in one OF the
wealthy towns of Central Kentucky,
has made wise selection and while we
deeply regret his leaving, yet we feel
proud of the fact that he and his ac-
complished wife, so highly priced in our
church work and in our entire COM
munity, carry with them the love and
good will of our people and will in a
short while be likewise engrafted into
the full confidence and esteem of the
church and people of their new loca-
tion.

. OPEN FOR BUSINESS.

Last week just as we were ready to
start our press we were informed that
the Citizens Bark, of this city, had
thrown open its doors and was ready
for business. Only a few words an
nouncing that fact, could be made at
that time, and since such an institution
tends to the developing of more bus
mess for Columbia, and since all the
parties connected with it are men of
the strictest integrity, we feel that
more extended m ention should be made,
and which we feel Justly due them in
keeping up the policy of this paper, and
showing the advancements of our thrift
ty little city. The organization of the
Citizens Bank took place only few
weeks ago, and work was rapidly push
ed, resulting as. above mentioned,
which came much sooner than many
outsiders had anticipated. The capital
stock is $15, 900, and was taken by some
of our best citizens, which proves their
faith in the present and the future bus
mess of this section, believing that the
time for the establishing of the third
bankswas justified by the volume of
business now in sight. The officers are
as follows: James H. Young, Pres
ident, G. w. Robertson, Vice Presi-
dent. 10 Coffey, Cashier, w. A. Coffey
Assistant Cashier, 10 Coffey Jr.. Book
keeper, and the place of business is in
the Page building on the corner oppo-
site James Garnett's law Office. The
above mentioned gentleman are so
thoroughly known to the people of this
country, as to need no Endorsement
from any one The President and Vice
President are successful men enjoying
the confidence of all who know them.
The Cashier, Assistant Cashier, and
Book-keeper are experienced in this
line of work and have as broad acquaint-
ance as any people in this part Of the
State. For many years they did the
banking business in this town, and
have all along enjoyed the full and COM
plsts confidence of the people. This pa
per favors business expansion, and
hopes that the Citizens Bank may pros
per, and aid in the developing Of our
town and community, and that the bus
iness of this part of the State will give
US three strong, prosperous banks, In
dispensible for thrifty business condi-
Ftions.- To the old, the middle age and
the youth, the first, the second and the
third, we extend goodwill and wishes.
