MRS. JENNINGS PASSES AWAY.
Highly Esteemed Bristol Woman Dies
in Hospital.
Mrs. Annie Bennett Jennings, wife OF
Mr.. Preston B. Jennings, of this city,
died in Johns Hopkins Hospital, in Balti-
more, at 900 o'clock Wednesday night.
The news of Mrs. Jennings death will
be received by her many friends and ac-
quaintances here as distinct shock, al
though it was generally known that she
was in the hospital and had undergone
one or two surgical operations there.
Mrs. Jennings had been in poor health
since last April, owing to the formation
of growth of some sort in her head.
The surgeons made every possible effort
to locate and remove the growth, but to
no purpose, as it appeared to underlie
the BRAIN She rallied after the opera
ton had been performed, but there APP
peared to be no chance to relieve her of
her trouble, which seemed destined to
prove fatal from the moment the surgeons
were unsuccessful in their efforts.
Mrs jennings is survived by her hus-
band. who is prominently connected with
wholesale interests here. She is also
survived by one child, May Jennings, q
sweet little girl, eight years of age. Mr..
Jennings was present at the time of the
death of Mrs. Jennings, and had beer
with her in the hospital for a week, hav-
ing been advised of the critical nature OF
her ailment.
Mrs Jennings was in her 33d year
She would have been 33 years old on the
Sd of December next. She was prior to
her marriage Miss Annie Bennett Rouzel
and resided with her parents at Edge
wood, near Knoxville, Tenn. She was
married to Mr.. Jennings November ID
1899. Since that time they had resided
for the most part in this city.
Mrs. Jennings was a member of the
Presbyterian church and a woman of high
christian character. She was noted fol
her modest, womanly traits of character,
and was exceptionally popular with her
friends and acquaintances.
The body will be brought to Bristol and
buried here. The funeral services viii
be conducted by the Rev. c. c. Carson,
ID. d., probably Saturday morning. Bris.
tol, Tenn, Eoentng Neacs, of Nov. 18th
Mrs. Jennings was daughter of Mr.
Uriah A. Rouzer, brother of Col. Johr
r. Rouzer and Mrs. Eliza Smith, and q
cousin to Mr.. d. r. Rouzer, all of Thur
mont. ED.

ABOUT might RIDERS"
Reason Why They Raid Tobacco
Farms in the South.

Press dispatches almost daily tell
of another might rider" raid in Ken
lucky With change of date and loca-
ton, one dispatch will serve for each
account. A band of men ride into
town, burn a tobacco warehouse, hurt
somebody that amounts to an interior
ence maybe-and ride out again.
Today the Kentuckians are fighting
not only for the right to reasonable
returns for labor and capital, but for
the very right to exist. Their enemy
is the most relentless and most com
plete monopoly with which this coun-
try is cursed-the tobacco trust.
Having absorbed all American and
perfected working agreements with
foreign. purchasers of raw tobacco, the
trust laid its heavy hand on the pro-
Queer. In 1898, with a greater retail
demand than ever before, the price
that time their income was steadily
forced down from II cents to cents
a pound in a few years-this in a
period when labor and living expenses
were on constantly ascending scales.
The trust finally announced that the
growers must sell the 1906 crop for
IL cents or go out of business
Many of them chose the latter, as
either proposition meant the same
thing. The growers finally organized
agreed to sell no more tobacco at less
than Is cents per pound and to per
NIT no other tobacco to be supplied
the trust at less than a living rate, if
they could help it.
That is why might riders" are burn
ing tobacco sold to trusts and whip
ping growers who attempt to fur
nish it.
The governor of Kentucky, former
attorney for the tobocco trust, stands
ready with a veto for remedial legis.
lation that is the basis of a desperate
struggle in the legislature.
The might riders" are recruited in
the heart of the blue grass region
They are neither ignorant nor law
less. They are fighting as free men
will ever fight with the only effective
means at hand against injustice and
crime their country's legal machinery
will not reach.
And the best feature of their fight
is that they are bringing the trust tc
terms after holding their crops and
starving along -or three bitter, dis
couraged years.

town SWEPT UNDER
Slide HITS QUEBEC VILLAGE
WITH FATAL RESULTS.
Thirty of the Population of Notre
Dame de Salette Known to Have
Perished - Those Who Escaped
Were Found Panic Stricken and
Preparing to Leave.

Buckingham, Quebec, April U.s.
Half the little French hamlet of Notre
Dame de Salette, 16 miles from here
on the Lievre river, disappeared Sun
day under sliding mountain and at
least 80 of its small population are
known to have persisted.
The river Lievre winds at the foot
of the hamlet and mountain towers
behind it. Heavy rains for days have
been melting snow and ice on the
mountainside and streams have been
coursing down to the river. At 5
Sunday morning, just as the little
hamlet began to stir for early mass,
part of the mountain started to slide
toward the river. 1t tore a path of
death and destruction in its way and
those who were not killed when their
homes We're engulfed were left buried
under the mass of rock and earth
Camille Lapoint's house stood first in
the path of the avalanche. He and
his family of II are known to have
persisted. Eight others, whose names
have not been obtained, are missing
and the rescuers are attempting to find
definitely how many more are missing.
Mrs. Desjardines cottage also was
swept away and she and her two chill
dren domestic and hired man are
known to be buried in the landslide.
With Roar, 1t Rushes Down.
De Salette, like many hamlets of it's
kind, rambles into the gardens and
little fields on the mountain side, so
about half of it was not in the path
of the slide The sliding mass rushed
with roar and spread over a part of
the place and dumped itself in the
swollen stream at it's foot Cut off
from the outside world, messengers
were dispatched to Houpere, the near
est hamlet. Those who arrived first
estimated that at least dozen houses
were crushed in the path of the land
slide. Buckingham was appealed to,
but the fight of the messengers across
the spring roads was slow Those first
on the scene found De Salette in a
panic with the uninjured ones packing
their belonging for fight.

MINES AND MINING.

P. T. Rowe, bishop of the Episco-
palian church for the territory of Alas
ka, who arrived in Seattle Sunday
from the north on the Yukon, brings
the first detailed authentic information
regarding the big gold strike on Nolan

camp when the strike was made and
washed out $500 pans on the Olsen
claim with his own hands and saw
pans washed out that ran as high as
$500. Nolan creek is only about 200
miles from the Arctic ocean, and there
were only 125 men in the camp when
Bishop Rowe left for the outside. The
strike was made at depth of about
$50 feet, and about $4,000 had been
washed out by crude operations. 1t is
estimated that the cleanup at the end
of this summer will reach 81 900 900.
