GONE TO
HER REWARD
Mrs. Fannie Browning, Who Was
the Wife OF Mr.. RolIin Brown.
Ing. Passes over the Silent
River.
MANY FRIENDS ATTENDEDTnE FUNERAL.

The passing of Mrs Fannie Bro wn.
ing, the devoted wife of Mr.. Rollin
Browning, brought sorrow to this
community, though it was known
that her malady was incurable. The
end came last Saturday afternoon in
the presence of her loved ones, and
when the veil was drawn the scene
was heartrending.
She was the loving mother of two
bright children, son and a daughter,
who but recently realized that the
pilgrimage of their mother was close
to the end, and though they are quite
young, it is said they were often seen
about the home, sitting, with their
arms around each other. talking of
the suffering of their dear mother and
lamenting that they were helpless,
could do nothing to bring about relief
1t was sad picture, and every heart
In Columbia feels for the dear chill
dren.
Mrs. Browning was a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. T. r. Suits, and was
born in Adair county about thirty
two years ago. She was married to
Mr.. Rollin Browning about twelve
years ago.
Six or eight years ago her health
began to fail, and at times she seemed
to be improving, but the seed of the
disease had been deeply sown, and
gradually her vitality failed until
death came.
For several years her husband has
neglected his business and watched
faithfully by the bedside of bis COM
panion, doing every thing in his pow
er to bring sunshine into her life.
The funeral services were held in the
Methodist church Sunday afternoon at
2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. ]. S.
Chandler. There were many relatives
and friends who gathered to pay their
last respects to lovable young woman
and to drop the tear of sympathy for
those who had been so sorely bereft.
The interment was in the city GEM
etery.
May a loving God comfort the sor.
rowing husband, the dear little chill
dren, the affectionate father and
mother and the brothers and sisters.
There were many beautiful floral
designs.

Under the heaviest offerings of the
history of the warehouse, our Market
has been strong and active on hurley
and Dark with the best averages of
the season. We urge you to use strict
caution in getting your tcbacf ;
in good order and, to bri n g
your accO on at once.
Buyers are discriminating against
soft ordered tobacco, as the recorder
ing season is at hand and tobacco is
wanted in bone dry order and ii it not
so the price will be cut in proportion
to order. You will also add much to
the value of your tobacco by properly
grading at home, not only so but will
save much time when you get to mar
ket. We have received number of
letters from a distance asking us to
hold open our market until the mid
die of March, because the roads have
prevented their getting to market
and we have decided to do this, but
we want to emphasize the Importance
of getting here at the very earliest
moment, as the indications are the
Trusts might cease buying. We ship
baskets to any r. r. point in Taylor
Co., Freight prepaid to any customer
who wants to ship. This proposition
is affective Monday Fed. 18th and af
ter that date till season closes.

Russell Circuit Court.

The winter term of the Russell cir
cult court commenced at Jamestown
Monday morning. Notwithstanding
the roads are miserably bad, a fair
crowd was on the square by the noon
hour. Judge Carter arrived in due
time to organize the court, and i'm
mediately after the dinner hour the
mill commenced to grand, A. A. Hud-
dleston, Commonwealth's Attorney,
being at his post.
There are large number of INSIDE
meanor cases docketed and several
felony charges. John Davidson, who
recently killed Felix Long, and who
is in Jail, will be indicted this week,
but it is not likely that he will be
tried at this term of court. The bust
ness of the Court will probably re-
quire the full term, two weeks.

QUARTZ BOOM PREDICTED
 WHEN RAILROAD IS DONE

SEATTLE, Oct. 2.--With the com pletion of the government railroad in Alaska will come a boom in quartz mining that will even eclipse the placer record already made, says M. c. Tynen, of Anchorage, who is in Seattle to purchase machinery and supplies to develope a group of claims at the head of Peters creek, near Knik Arm. "There is a lot of high-grade quartz ore that IS just awaiting better transportation facili- ties to begin to produce" said Mir. Tynen yesterday at the Seattle. "There are three groups of claims near mine that are now being worked and, on my holdings 1 have a force of fifteen men that will be increased to twenty-five for the winter season. 1 am out here getting water wheels, q ten-stamp mill and other needed machinery. There is such a wealth of water power to be had that once machinery is installed there is little expense in operating"
 According to Mir. Tynen, Anchor age, for a new town, is rapidly losing it's raw and crude appearance. "The timber has been cut off and the streets graveled," he said. "A num- Der of good frame buildings have gone up, and I understand, that be- ginning next summer brick and stone will make its appearance as building material The record for town that was nothing but tents this summer is pretty good. d."-Post-Inte

COMMISSION WORK AT
 MOOSE PASS FINISHED

The road building of the Alaska Road Commission out of Mile 29 into the Moose Pass country has been completed and the men came in from there last night on the car. The road has been built out fifteen miles from the Moose Pass station on the railroad, bringing it short distance beyond John Gilpatricks headquart- CTS in the Moose Pass. Those who have seen this piece of work speak very highly of the condition on the road and it's width. In fact some of the old-timers out there describe it as a boulevard.
 Martin Lanning, with a couple of men, remain out there till Monday putting up mile posts along the new road and doing other small pieces of work preparaotry to bringing in the tools and material.

FRIENDS FEAR GUS BAKKE
 HAS ENDED HIS LIFE

JUNEAU-The mystery concern ing the disappearance of Gus Bakke had not been solved up to a late hour this afternoon, although the police and the friends of Bakke have been using every effort to locate the missing man.
 The last seen of Bakke was on the night of September 24th when he was in a cabin belonging to Tom Con nors, an old-time friend. Bakke had been drinking and seemed rather des- pondent when he left the cabin about 10 o'clock. It is thought likely that he threw himself from one ot the wharves into the bay, upon leaving the cabin. Tom Ashby, who has known Bakke for the past thirty years, stated he was certain that Bakke had committed suicide, because he was sure Bakke would tell him of any intention of leaving town. An other thing that lends color to the suicide theory is the fact that Bakke's room has been searched and shows no sign of preparations to leave.
 Gus Bakke is one of the best known men in the North, having spent over thirty years following every rush" in Alaska and the Yukon. He has been identified with about every min ing camp in the North. In '9S he joined the stampede from Juneau to the Klondike and in partnership with Bob Insley ran saloon for the next three or four years in Dawson. He left Dawson for Nome and later took ir the Fairbanks stampede. He drifted back to Juneau about two years ago and worked at the Opera House Bar for Ashby and Endleman until last spring. He had not been working for the past summer Empire.
