PROMINENT MEN DROWNED,
Rev. Jennings and DIR. Leonard, of
Reidyille, Met Tragic Death.

Union, May 27.-A special from
-Reidyille this morning says that Rev.
g, A. B. Jennings, pastor of group
of Presbyterian churches there, and
who has hosts of friends throughout
South Carolina, was drowned at Rer+
ry Shoals, below Tucapau Mills, on
Tiger river, Monday afternoon, while
seining with companion, DR.. G. ID.
Leonard, and his body was recover
ed this morning about 8 O'Clock,
though at noon to-day, DR.. Leonard's
remairs have not been found.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Jennings
and his three young daughters, the
eldest Of whom is about fifteen years
old, together with DR.. and Mrs. Leo
nard and their two children, went for
a little private picnic, at Berry shoals,
about two and one-half miles from
Reidyille. Shortly after their arrival
at Berry Shoals Mr.. Jennings and DR..
Leonard went in seining. About 4
o'clock Mrs. Leonard and the girls,
seeing storm approaching, called to
the gentlemen who were short dist
ance down the river, that tney had
better come ashore, as rain was
coming. Receiving no answer they
called again and again, and finally
having no response, went quickly to.
neighbor's nearby the river, and
summoned assistance. A searching
party was then organized, as 1t was
feared that something serious had
happened All search proved una
vailing and the men then secured
graphing hooks and dragged the
river, continuing far into the night,
and early this morning efforts to find
the bodies were resumed. Finally,
about 8 o'clock, a quarter of mile
down the river from where Mr.. Jen-
nings and DR.. Leonard had gone in
seining, an expert swimmer in div
ing found the body of Mr.. Jennings
in about fifteen feet of water The
body was standing upright and the
hands were tightly clinched as If in
desperation at the distressing plight
he found himself In with no hope of
rescue. From the position Of the
body and other evidences, it is the
supposition that DR.. Leonard became
entangled In the meshes of the seine,
and that in his struggles, when Mr..
Jennings went to his rescue, Mr.. Jen-.
nings was drawn beneath the surface
of the water and remained submerged
SO long as to lose his life.
After the body Of Mr.. Jennings was
recovered search for the body Of DR..
Leonard was continued, but up to
noon to-day, without avail.
Mr.. Jennings was extremely popu-
lar as pastor and man and the whole
community, in and around Reidville,
is terribly shocked and greatly dis
tressed at this sudden and tragic
cutting off of useful career. The
funeral was held at Clinton and his
remains laid to rest beside those of
his brothers, Rev. f. Cornwall Jen-
nings and DR.. j. Mac. Jennings, who
died respectively just fifteen months
and two and half years ago.

GEN. s. d. LEE is DEAD.
He Was the Last Surviving Eteuten-
ant General of Confederate Armies.

Vicksburg, Miss, May 2S.-Gen.
Stephen d. Lee, the last susviving
lieutenant general of the Confede-
rate army, died this morning at his
home here after an illness of seven
weeks.
Gen., Lee was commander-in-cbief
OF the United Confederate Veterans,
and was the most popular of all the
old Confederate officers of the South.
Since the war he had been giving all
his time to the upbuilding OF the
State. He was president of the State
Agricultural and Industrial College,
and also had large planting inter-
ests In the State.
His interesting personality had
made for him warm friends all over
the nation. A favorite saying with
him was that no soldier OF the Lost
Cause, which Gen. Lee always be-
lieved to be right, need ever hang
his head with shame. "The keeping
alive. of the old Confederate SOL
diers." he said just a few hours be-
fore his death, "is trust that should
be sacred to the sons of veterans.
Sketch OF His Life.
Gen. Stephen d. Lee was born at
Charleston, September 90, 1888, of
patriotic lineage. His great-grand-
father, VIM. Lee, was one of the
forty leading citizens of Charleston,
whose devotion to the continental
cause was punished by imprisonment
on a prison ship and transportation
to ST. Augustine, Fla. His grand
father, Thomas Lee, was appointed
United States District Judge by Pre-
sident Monroe. Gen. Lee was up
pointed to the West Point Military
Academy in 1850, and was gradu-
ated in the class of 1854, in the
class with ]. e. B. Stewart, . o.
Howard, Custis Lee, Pender aAd Pc
gram. He served with the Fourth
United States Artillery, and held the
rank of first lieutenant and regimen
tai quartermaster when he resigned
in 1861. He was appointed captain
IN the South Carolina organization,
and later captain in the regular army
OF the Confederate army, and assign
ed to duty as aide to Gen. Beaure-
gard. With Capt. Chestnut, a bro
ther officer, he bore the summons to
Major Anderson for the surrender of
Fort Sumter, and gave the subse-
quent notice of the opening of the
bombardment.
After the surrender of Fort Sum-
ter he went to Virginia and joined
Lees army, and there his rise was
rapid and brilliant. He was repeat
edly complimented by his superior
officers, and promotion often came.
He was a colonel at Sharpsburg and
Second Manassas. and was made a
brigadier general in November, 1862,
and assigned to the command of
Vicksburg. He was promoted to Ma
jor General in 1868, and put I'm
charge Of all the cavalry in the west,
and after this all of his service was
in the west. He was regarded as
capable and daring officer in every
emergency. .~.,g,.-...,.,..... Ss#

Panama, July 12.-The presidential elections through out the Isthmus or Panama passed off today without dis turbance. Senor Don Jose Domingo de Obaldia, formerly minister to the United States, and acting president during the absence of pr. Amador, was elected president. The supporters of Ricardo Arias, who recently withdrew his candidacy, decided not to vote, and as a consequence no opponent to Senor Obaldia was placed in nomination. Notwithstanding this, large number of voters registered their choice, ana demonstrated the overwhelming ma jority of Senor Obaldia's. supporters. From all parts of the republic news has been received here that the cleo tions were carried on in an orderly manner and that Senor Obaldia re- ceived all the votes cast. At the con- clusion of the balloting, enth usiastic crowds headed by a band of music. the streets of Panama, cheer ing continuously for the newly elected president. There appeared to be an absolute absence of i'll feeling between the former supporters of Senor Arias and the adherents of Senor Obaldia
