DEATH OF MRS. JANE G. MATHIS
This Good Woman Died On Tuesday
Evening After a Lingering Illness
Lived an Exemplary Life.

Union Times, Nov. l.
On Tuesday evening, at 7.5O
o'clock, Mrs. Jane Carolina Mathis
passed away at the residence of her
son, and oaly child, Mr.. Jno. R.
Mathis, on Church street. Her death,
though not unexpected, was a great
sorrow to her friends and loved ones.
She was one of Unions very aged
people, and though she had reached
an advanced age, she was active II
body up to a few months preceding
her death, and her mind did not fail
her until death was upon her.
Mrs. Mathis was born April 26,
1928, in Cabarru Co., n. c., and was
a daughter of Andrew and Sarah Har-
ris. On Nov. 8, 1912 she was married
in Newberry county to Mr.. Willough-
ly Mathis, of Portsmouth, Va.
In early life sae gave herself to
Gods service and through her long
fife she never faltered in her stead
fast faith in Jesus Christ. Her great
est pleasure was the doing Of good
works. She was possessed of noble,
self-sacrifcing disposition, and to
make others happy was her great joy.
She originally joined the Methodist
church, and for thirty years was a
faithful member Of that church. But,
from early womanhood she became a
believer in immersion as the baptism
taught by Christ, and this finally led
her. to join the BaBptists. She was,
however, very liberal in her judg-
ment of others, and always had in her
heart a warm place for the Meth
odist church. Thirty odd years ago
she united with the First Baptist
church at Newberry. Later, upon
moving to Union to live with her son s
family, she moved her letter to the
First Baptist church, Union.
Her husband died in Florida where
he had moved with his family. His
death was on the 25th anniversary OF
their marriage. The husbands death
occurred also on the 9Th anniversary
of the birth Of their only child. She
was left practically penniless and be-
Gan the difficult struggle to rear her
child and provide the necessities of
life.
Just a. week before her death she
told her son that all her special pray
ers had been answered fully and that
she was happy in the thought that
her life's work was done. She ex-
pressed longing to be at home with
the Redeemer where she would be at
rest.
The last twelve months her health
has been declining and she suffered
much. But as the end approached
she sank peacefully into sleep, pass
ing away without a struggle. The
long aad useful life Of this godly wo-
man is a rich heritage left her friends
and loved ones. Her hands were ever
ready to minister to those In need OF
her help, and in her days Of sickness
and pain kind friends and loved ones
did nodt fail to minister to her.
"!She rests from her labors,
And her works follow her,

\ MIRACLE SAVED HICKS
 IN LEAP
Master Mechanic Thinks CoIIiS- ion Sure and jumps From Engine Going Forty Miles an Hour-0nly Slightly Hurt,

ALBUQUERQUE May 1.-L C. Hicks, until recently master mechan- ic of the Santa Fe shops in Albu- querque, and who Is ION master ale- chanic at San Bernardino, was badly injured Friday night near Pasadena, as a result of a wild leap from fast speeding locomotive, to escape col lision which he imagined was coming. The collision did not materialIze ow- ing to the fact that the other engine was on a parallel track.
 When men ran to pick up Hicks they thought to find him dead. He lay in heap of gravel perfectly still and blood was running from a cut on his head In the Santa Fe hospital to which he was taken at once, it de- veloped that his wounds were only superficial.
 Boarding a mixed train from San BeTnardino for Los Angeles, Hicks decided to ride in the cab. The train was late and going about forty miles an hour when Hicks jumped. He was unfamiliar with that part of the track, and forgot that the Salt Lake trains run on a parallel track for some distance. Looking out of the cab window, he saw headlight bear ing down at full speed, apparently on the same track; gave wild yell to the engineer and jumped. He rolled down a steep smbankment, the soft gravity of which broke his fall and probably saved his life.

CHIHUAHUA NOW COMING ID
 FRONT
With impetus of American
 Capital State of Southern
 Republic Is Enjoying Unpre- @ cedented Prosperity

c. R. Trexel, prominent mining man of Chihuahua, Mexico, arrived in the city last evening, and will spend the day here attending to some mat ters which require his attention. He spent yesterday at Cananea, and was greatly impressed with the enormous development of that district, which he had not visited for a number of years. When seen at the Copper Queen Ho- tel last evening by Review report CT and asked concerning general con ditions in Chihuahua, MT Trexel said:
 At no time in its history has the state Of Chihuahua enjoyed such pros perity as at the present time. Un- der the administrations of Governor Greet and Governor Sanchez the state has steadily advanced, until at the present time mining as we'll as the agricultural industry are being carried on with big returns to the country.
 ''The advent of Chas. Schwab into the district a short time ago when he bought the Central and San Toy prop critics, has caused boom to set in because of the large price he paid for the mining groups. He bought the Central property from J. F. Hutchin- son, and paid an enormous sum, al though the exact figures were never made public. For the san Toy prop erty Manuel Cameros received one million and a half from Schwab and his associates. Both of these prop critics in the St. Eulalfa district, and immediately after the sale almost every foot of ground in this district was denounced.
 "Mr. Schwab is in Chihuahua at the present time looking over the con strucrion of a new railroad and new aerial tramway from the mining prop critics to the plain.
 The St Eula1ia Mining company is increasing its output steadily, and at the present time is shipping in the neighborhood of TOO tons of ore daily This is silver, lead and zinc proper ty of great value.
 "It is understood that the Lewi- sohns have entered the state for min ing operations, and in the Minillas mining property Donald R. Morgan is making big producer. Ambassador Greet. who will probably be the next governor of the state, also has enorm- ous mining and industrial interests which are building up the state, and will one day make it the first in Mex ico.
 "The City of Chihuahua itself -c en- toying a boom at the present time, aud within the next few months it is probable an electric car line and oth- CT modern Improvements will be in stalled

SCHOOL CHILDREN
 CELEBRATE MAY DAY
Tots at Central School Enter tain Their Relatives In a
 Pleasing Manner

Probably the prettiest entertain ment which has taken place in the city for a long time was that at the Central School building last evening when 100 school children, ranging in age from six to eight years, went through a number of exercises in the presence of their parents in celebra- tion of May day.
 That Misses Harmon and Bayley deserve great credit for their training of the children nobody could doubt who saw these tots go through intri- cate marches, flag drills, songs and a May pole dance without an error. The children themselves entered Ia,o the spirit of the occasion, and had a merry time until o'clock, when the entertainment concluded.
 All of the participants were mem bers of the Kindergarten and first grade, and on account of their tender years it would seem that an enter tainment by them would. be of the usual kindergarten commencement variety. On the contrary, the flag drills and the marches were beauti- fully executed, while the singing was unusually sweet.

CAUGHT COLD WHILE
 FALLING TEN STORIES

NEW YORK, May 1-The only complaint simon Dresher had to make when he landed at the bottom of an elevator shaft in the building at If West Tenth street, after having fallen from the tenth floor, was that he had caught cold coming down. Al. though he escaped with slight inter- nal injuries which seemed to give him little concern, he worried because he started to cough.
 Here I've gone all winter without catching cold,'' he said, as workmen who had expected to find him a corpse carried him out of the elevator shaft, and just because I go through the air a little too fast I have to get a cough. Now, wouldn't that jar your sIats?"
 DTesher, who is 21 years old and lives at S90 Flushing avenue, Brook lyn, an elevator builder. A plank has been stretched across the shaft at the tenth floor and Dresher was at work leveling ore of the walls when the plank tipped and he went shooting down the shaft. He struck the walls of the shaft seyera times, winch of the shaft several times, which
