"RED" JACKSON DEAD Was Brave Confederate General Who Served Under Forrest. NOTED BREEDER OF FINE STOCK His. Celebrated Belle Meade Farm, Near Nashville, Tenn., Produced Some of the Greatest Thoroughbreds on the Turf. General William H. Jackson, a noted Confederate cavalry leader during the Civil war, when he bore the soubriquet of "Red" Jackson, died at his homo, Belle Meade, near Nashville, Tenn., Monday afternoon. He was in his sixty-eighth year, and had been in failing health for more than a year, and dangerously ill for several weeks past At the close of the Civil war General Jackson was in command of Forest's division, with the Texas brigade added. Since the war he has devoted himself to agriculture and the breeding of thoroughbred running horses, some of the most noted performers of the American turf having been born at famous Belle Meade. Two children, William H. Jackson, Jr., and Mrs. Selene Elliston, survive him. General Jackson was born at Paris, Tenn., in 1835, and acquired a preparatory education in the schools at Jackson. He entered West Point as a cadet in 1852 and graduated in 1856. In the following year General Jackson went to New Mexico as an officer in a regiment of mounted rifles, and actively participated in the principal Indian fights with such adventurous scouts as Kit Carson. He resigned his command in the United States army upon the outbreak of the civil war, and offered his sword to his native state and was appointed a captain of artillery by Governor Harris. At the battle of Belmont, General Jackson received a minnie ball in his side which was never removed. He was raised to the rank of colonel for his gallantry in that fight. General Jackson commanded the cavalry under Albert Sidney and Joseph E. Johnston, and fed the advance on the invasion of Tennessee by Hood's army, and his division covered the retreat of the army after the battle of Nashville. He was raised to the rank of brigadier general for his dash at Holly Springs that resulted in the loss of the federal base of supplies and compelled General Grant to abandon his campaign against Vicksburg. General Jackson was recommended for further promotion by his superior officers, but failed to secure the reward. General Jackson married the daughter of General W. G. Harding in 1868, and became associated with his father in law in the conduct of the Belle Meade stock farm. He assumed active management of the property several years before the death of General Harding, and the high state of perfection attained by Belle Meade as the nursery of thoroughbrecas is due to his judgment and management. General Jackson was a brother of the late Howell E. Jackson, associate justice of the United States supreme court. LOWELL MILLS.SILENT. Spindles Ceasst to Whirr and Thouands of Operators are Idle. For the first time in many years, on a working day, the bells on the great cotton mills in Lowell, Mass., were silent Monday morning and the streets usually marked by the hurry and bustle of thousands of operatives on their way to work, were still and almost deserted. The total number of spindles stopped is 838,000; number of operatives out, 17,175, with a weekly pay roll of $128,000. Frisco System. Announcement is made by the Frisco System that all usual train service has been resumed from Memphis to all points on their line. The public are therefore enjoying the usual splendid service given by this system from Birmingham to Memphis, Kansas City and all points in Oklahoma, Indian Territory, Kansas and Texas. BURDICK INQUEST RESUMED. Case is Reopened to Get Important Testimony of Bartender. At Buffalo, N. Y., Monday, the Burdick murder inquest was reopened be fore Police Judge-Murphy for the purpose of hearing the testimony of Alexander J. Quinn, the bartender of the Hotel Roland, New York city, who, it is alleged, heard Pennell threaten to kill Burdick and of F. G. King, the cashier of the hotel. The J. G. Mattinly distillery at Louisville, Ky., was destroyed by fire late Monday afternoon, causing a loss of $50,000. The Savannah —Snow fell Sunday at New Bern, N. C. It is said that the truck crop is gone. —The report of State Comptroller Croom, of Florida, shows the financial affairs of the state to be in splendid condition. —G. F. Swift, president of the Swift Packing Company, died suddenly at his home in Chicago Sunday. —William V. McKean, for many years editor in chief of The Public Lodger, died in Philadelphia Sunday. —Mine operators will, in a few days, issue their circular containing the price list on which coal rates will be based for a year. The situation along the flooded stetten along the Mississippi river remains unchanged. At Greenville, Miss., high water has caused the electric light works to shut down and the city is in darkness. Scotchmen are very insignificant because they could not give General MacDonald, who committed suicide, a national funeral, the deceased's widow objecting. At Selma, Ala., Friday, a man was arraigned for murder, convicted and sentenced to hang in less than three hours. In a rear-end collision on the Southern Pacific near San Antonio three passengers were burned to death and nineteen persons injured. Will Dorsey, a negro, was hanged in Birmingham Friday for highway robbery, the first execution under Alabama's new law. The flood situation south of Memphis has become more critical. Three serious breaks in the levees occurred Friday. Former Senator Pritchard, of North Carolina, will be given a place on the supreme court of the District of Columbia by President Rooseveit. The criticism of the German navy by Admiral Dewey may result in the kalser asking an explanation from the United States. The money question which threat ened to wreck the Yarmouth-Thaw engagement, has been settled by settling $100,000 a year on Miss Thaw and the wedding will occur April 27. The Empress of Germany, while hunting, was thrown by her horse and her right arm broken. The text of the Irish land bill, which has been made public, shows the measure to be a most complex one. While leading his men in a charge on a fort held by Philippine rebels, Lieutenant Reece, formerly of Carrollton, Ga., was seriously wounded. Waycross, Ga., is to have a hundred thousand dollar car plant. The Atlantic Coast Line has agreed to increase the wages of its engineers 10 per cent. A Richmond, Va., young man struck a match on the seat of his pants after sitting on a gasoline can. He may die. —Congressman Robert W. Davis and Hon. Frank Harris have announced themselves as candidates for governor of Florida. —There appears to be no ground for the report that the Corbett-Joffrois mill is to occur in Florida, as the laws of the state clearly forbid such contests. —The New Orleans cotton exchange is considering a proposition from the New York exchange which may end all bucket shops. —The steel trust has begun to merge its plants and reduce the capitalization for purposes or economy. —Consul General Huges, at Coburg, reports that the Germans are making a success of cotton growing in East Africa. —There is nothing new in the flood situation. The chief danger at present is at New Orleans and other points below Memphis. —The Burdick inquest closed Thursday and the murder is still veiled in mystery. The chief result has been the vindication of Burdick. POULLAIN HARD HIT. Contracted to Deliver Many Bales of Cotton and Failed to "Come Across." By a verdict returned in the United States circuit court at Atlanta, Tuesday, H. C. Poullain, of Jackson county, Ga., is to pay $12,346.20, and certain costs of court in addition, for several deals in cotton which he made in the summer of 1900 and failed to carry out in the fall. The verdict was rendered on the petition of the Pelzer Manufacturing Company, of Pelzer, Anderson county, S. C., who alleged that Poullain made contracts with them to deliver 1,900 bales of cotton, which he failed to do SAVANNAH: GA.. SATURDAY. APRIL 4. 1903. MORE LEVEES BREAK City of Greenville, Mississippi, at Mercy of Flood. WATERY AVALANCHE LOOSENED An Enormous Crevasse Threatens Widespread Destruction—Sev- eral Minor Breaks are Re- ported at Various Points. Breaks in the levees along the Mississippi are reported as follows: (1) About 40 miles above New Orleans. (2) a few miles below Greenville, and (3) at Duvall's Landing, Miss. The stages at lower river points, however, have not materially changed. Advices from Greenville, Miss. state that a volume of water 16 feet deep and over 600 feet in length is pouring steadily through a crevasse in the levee five miles south of the city and is flooding thousands of acres of the finest farming land in the celebrated Yazoo delta, regarded by many to be the most fortile in the world. The break in the levee occurred at 11 o'clock Friday morning and the roar of the rushing waters could easily be heard in Greenville. Only 200 feet of the embankment gave way at first and a mighty effort was made by hundreds of labogers in charge of the government engineers to check the rushing flood by cribbing and sacking, but it was soon apparent that it was beyond human power to successfully combat the restless fury of the current. An hour later it was seen that the ends of the levee on either side of the crevasse were melting fast, the force of the current cutting the embankment away as though it were built of sand. When the first report of the break reached the city the excitement was intense and many people began to collect their valuables and held themselves in readiness to move away at a moment's notice. Shortly after nightfall the backwater reached the city. Major John M. Sears, who has charge of the government office in Greenville, in the absence of Captain Potter, in an interview stated that the break is unquestionably the worst in the history of the levee system. He says the entire delta south as far as Vicksburg will be inundated and the fine farming lands in Washington, Dollar and Sharkey counties will be under water for more than two weeks. This is the first break to be reported on the Mississippi side since the present rise began. The situation at midnight grew rapidly worse. Work on the protection levee through Main street was soon abandoned and water reached Washington avenue, the highest point in the city. Appcals for help began coming in from the Tuxedo and race track additions and relief boats were hurried to their relief. The news came from these additions that people were seen clinging to roofs of houses and rafts to escape the rising waters. Many liyes have been reported lost, a woman and five children perishing in one house. The southern part of the city is entirely under water. Houses even as high as Central avenue began filling up and their inmates were forced to upper floors for safety. The city was in total darkness, water putting out the fires in the electric light plants. People Cut Leaves. Interest in the flood situation at New Orleans Friday centered in the break at Hymcilia, near Lucy, La., 40 miles above the city, and the disastrous crevasse reported south of Greenville. Cotton men felt especial concern with respect to the latter and the announcement in private dispatches, which were circulated on the floor of the cotton exchange that 100,000 acres of the richest delta land would probably go under water, created a feeling of depression. Crevasse Cut Near Vicksburg. A Vicksburg special says: The second crevasse of the day on the Mississippi occurred at Albemarle levee in lower Issaquena county at 5 o'clock Friday afternoon. Backwater from Steelees bayou had already spread all over that section and was within five feet of the levee's crown, consequently not much damage will result. Reports from there state that the gap is several hundred feet wide, but as the water is running through with very little force it can probably be closed. The Albemarle levee was an old piece of work and had been displaying danger signals for a week past. The breaks in Washington and Issaquena counties will cause a suspension of traffic on the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley railroad north of Vicksburg, the tracks for 10 miles or more having already been covered by water to a depth of 20 inches. Tribune. MANY> PRISONERS MADE HAPPY President Roosevelt Issues Order Benefiting Men Confined in the Atlanta, Ga., Federal Prison. Seventy-five prisoners in the United States penitentiary in Atlanta, Ga., were made happy Tuesday morning when Warden S. A. Hawk announced to them the contents of an order issued by President Roosevelt. The order has the effect of shortening the terms of the men who were removed to Atlanta from the prisons of Ohio and New York. The Ohio and New York laws relating to the diminution of sentences for good conduct, whereby the federal statutes were made applicable to the United States prisoners, were very much more liberal than the federal statutes under which such diminution of sentences is permitted in federal institutions. As a result of the transfer of the New York and Ohio prisoners, the federal statutes applied to them, and in many cases their terms of imprisonment were increased, in some cases, to the extent of three or four years. They lost all the benefits that were due them for good behavior. It was known that the transfer worked a great injustice and hardship upon a certain class of prisoners, and the last cengress repealed the federal statutes making state laws applicable to federal prisoners, and enacted a very liberal commutation to the law applicable to all United States prisoners wherever confined. In order to remedy the injustice done the prisoners in the Atlanta institution. President Roosevelt issued the following general order Monday: "Now, therefore be it known, that I, Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States of America, in consideration of the premises, divers other good and sufficient reasons me thereto moving, do hereby order that each and every United States prison or who was or hereafter shall be transferred from a state institution to the United States penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., under sentence imposed on or before the 20th day of July, 1902, be discharged by the warden of said United States penitentiary upon the day when he would have been discharged had he continued to be confined in the state prison or penitentiary from which he was transferred; upon conditions that his conduct in the said institution and in the United States penitentiary has been such as to entitle him to the deductions hereby granted and allowed." Warden S. A. Hawk, of the Atlanta federal prison, was notified of the president's action and expressed de light that the order had been issued, and declared it would right a great wrong. "I have been looking for the order for some time," he declared, "and am glad it has been issued. An unintentional injustice was done these men, and it will bring them much joy. The order will affect about 75 prisoners." MONDAY'S RIVER BULLETIN. Great Danger Still Exists and Most Extreme Violation is Urged. The special daily river bulletin is sued at Washington Monday night was to the effect that the Mississippi river was falling as far south as Vicksburg. The stage of water at the latter place was 51.4 feet, a fall of 0.1 foot since Sunday night. The fall will continue for a few days longer, when the overflow water from the crevasse below Greenville will commence to re-center the river at Vicksburg, causing a moderate rise at that place and a prolongation of the flood for probably an additional two weeks. It is again urged that preparations for an extremely dangerous stage in the vicinity of Vicksburg should not be relaxed, and this caution applies with equal force to the remaining districts southward to the Gulf of Mexico. High water will continue in the New Orleans district for three weeks or longer, its duration depending upon the extent to which the levees hold. Duke's Baggage is Attached. Duke's baggage is unclaimed. A writ of attachment to cover an alleged debt of $225 was served at New York Monday against the twenty-five pieces of baggage belonging to the duke and duchess of Manchester, who recently arrived from Palm Beach, Fla. ATLANTA WINS ONCE MORE. People of Georgia Capital Subscribes Requisite Amount for University. The people of Atlanta, Ga. have subscribed more than the $100,000 askel of them as a prerequisite for establishing the great Southern Presbyterian University in their city, if the synods should so elect. When the meeting at the Central Presbyterian church adjourned Tuesday night, the subscriptions amounted to $101,990. In addition to the above large sum the Presbyterians had already raised $150,000, thus making the total over $250,000. BATTLING BRAVELY To Stay Raging Torrent and Save Home and Property. MORE BREAKS REPORTED Mississippi State Convict Farm, at Angola, Sald to Be Inundated. Greenville Situation is Much Better. A New Orleans special says: With a net fall of two-tenths of a foot in twenty-four hours and encouraging news from the scene of the struggle at Hymella, river conditions were considerably improved Tuesday. The only disquieting news of the day was the reported break at Angola, but the importance of this break was minimized to some extent by the news that the damage resulting would be largely confined to the state farm located there. The eleven miles of levees protecting Angola have cost approximately $100,000. A desperate struggle had been in progress there for the last week to hold the embankment but water has been steadily seeping through it and the conditions had grown so critical by the end of the week, that President Parker, of the board of control, had ordered the removal of the stock and the bulk of the convicts into the Tunica hills as a matter of precaution, and steps taken to protect the camps. The plantation is one of the best in the state, and the cotton grown upon it has been a large source of revenue. The levee is located nearly opposite the north of Rei river and the water will ultimately find its way back into the Mississippi, increasing the flood wave south of Baton Rouge. Good results attended the work at Hymella during the day and the answer to the appeal of the board for additional men and money has been answered. Large quantities of material went forward during the day. By evening the cribbing at the upper end of the broken levee had reached the willows on the batture and extended out a thousand feet on the lower end. The real test will come when it is attempted to join the ends and beginning the work of sacking. A hopeful feeling prevails at the scene and the chance of closing the break is fair. The extent of the inundated land is gradually increasing and the situation will be a desperate one for the sugar planters and truck farmers if disaster comes now. Success continues to attend the struggle to hold the levees to the Ponchartrain district. President Leake, of the levee board, and Assistant State Engineer Lewis said a persistent fight was being kept up to undo the work of the crawfish, which threatened a number of points in the district. While much of this stretch has still a safe margin above the flood, there are other levees in it which need to be raised and revetted to meet the additional rise which they are likely to be required to sustain. Millions are invested in sugar property in the district and two great railroad lines lie in it, and it is these interests which have united with the levee board to protect the Ponchartrain basin. According to a dispatch from Baton Rduge, neither the governor nor the board of control know anything concerning the rumored break in the Angola levee. They say that the report may be true, but they do not believe is possible that they would not have been advised of such a condition. A break there would not be any great surprise, but they do not credit the present report. Colonel C. Harrison Parker, president of the board of control, upon being asked concerning the rumor of a break at Angola, said: "We have not received notice of such a break, but we know that the situation there is critical and that the levees cannot hold much longer." More Hopeful at Greenville. The flood situation both in Greenville and surrounding territory showed improvement Tuesday and there is little apprehension of further complications. The water is falling generally in the city. The suffering and distress have been greatly relieved MILLS TO MOVE SOUTH. New England Plants Having .Too Much Trouble With Labor Unions. It is stated at Manchester, N. H., on good authority that the Stark mills are to be removed south, probably to some point in Alabama, owing to the constant agitation among the workers in the mills and the constantly increasing demands of the labor unions. The mills employ 1,700 hands with a weekly pay roll of $40,000. The owners of the Stark mills are not the only ones who are considering the advisability of escaping the exactions of the labor unions by going south. DEWEY SCORES' GERMANS. Admiral Says Bill's Navy is "Small Potatoes" Compared With Our Own—May Rile Kaiser. A Washington special says: The possibility that the German government may make inquiries of the government of the United States regarding certain declarations of Admiral George Dewey concerning the German navy and the recent maneuvers of the United States in the Caribbean sea was the principal topic of talk in official circles Friday. Ever since his experience with the Germans in Manila, bay, Admiral Dewdy has had no love for the German navy, and, like most of the other officers of the United States navy, he believes that a clash between Germany and the United States is almost inevitable. Looking to this possibility, the general board of the navy, of which he is president, makes all its calculations for naval development with reference to Germany. All comparisons of naval strength are with Germany to the exclusion of other European powers. This all-prevailing sentiment is doubtless responsible for some of the utterances of Admiral Dewey quoted in any interview published Friday, in which he declared that the navy of the United States is superior to the Germany navy. He goes farther and declares that the United states navy is the greatest in the world, giving as his reason that every man in it is a man of intelligence. "The German navy," he declares, "is an entirely different organization in its make-up of human material. I have made a deep study of that navy. My belief is that its efficiency in possible action is greatly overestimated. The men do not begin to compare in education and intelligence with the Americans." Thereupon Admiral Dewey proceeds to reveal some very interesting official secrets. He declares that the maneuvers in the Caribbean sea were not only successful, but were the greatest object lesson of the kind that the world has probably ever seen. "It was an object lesson to the kaiser more than to any other person," he declares. "Think of it! Fifty-four war ships were engaged. Germany could not possibly get a fleet over here that could fight such an aggregation of warships as that." While Admiral Dewey does not say so, in just those words his interview carries the inference that the maneuvers carries the inference that the maneuvers were designed especially for just that purpose. Dewey Was, imprudent. There is a general feeling in official circles that Admiral Dewey should not have said what he did, but everybody acknowledges that he told the truth. The officials of the navy department will take no notice of the interview unless they are called upon to do so through diplomatic channels. This means unless there is complaint from Germany. In accordance with his general instructions, Count Speck von Sternberg, German plenipotentiary, has cabled the text of the interview to Berlin. Mutilated Bodies of Luttrell and His Wife Found in Their Bed. In the eleventh district of Warren county, Tennessee, the dead bodies of Peter Luttrell and wife, both past 80 years old, were found in bed at their home horribly beaten and mutilated. The discovery was made by Lee Vickers and wife, who had a contract to care for the couple. In consideration for which the latter had deeded Vickers their farm, taking effect upon their death. Empress of Germany Thrown from Horse and Bones are Broken; A dispatch from Ber'in says: The empress was thrown from her horse while riding at Gruenwald Friday, and her right arm, broken. The empress fell heavily. Emperor William, who was 'near at hand, was among the first to reach her side and assisted her to rise. The imperial party was galloping at the moment when the empress' horse shiled and stumbled. LITTLE CHANGE AT GREENVILLE. Flooded Mississippi Town Still Bat- tling Against Greatest Odds. There was little change in the flood situation at Greenville, Miss., Monday night. The cutting of the protection levee at the northern border of the town has given no perceptible relief in letting out the water. On the contrary, a rise was still in progress generally throughout the city. The big crevasse 3 miles south of the city continues to widen and it is impossible to say what the ultimate breadth will be if the efforts to strengthen the ends and prevent furthel cutting are not successful.

Editor,—I cannot refrain call- ing your attention to a very wise change and very commendable im- provement of a very popular society of our city. “Household of Ruth 438 G. U. O. of O. F., was called up- on on Sunday to pay the last tri- bute of respect to one of its found- era and most faithful members, who was loved by all for her many sterl- ing qualities, ‘A few years ago this society at- tended funerals in carriuges, but finding this very expensive decided to use the more commodious trolly cars, which are 80 conveniently run from all homes and churches. The following statement will show the wise change and commendable im- provement: This society has 118 members, and carriages for this number would have been $118, but one of the finest and commodious trolly cars was chartered at a cost of 89.00. Thie will coat each member about 8 centa instead of $1.00 The society give mure since this change for eiskness and death and has a larger membership. This aociety like’ others of its kind in the city is doing much to mould and shape the destiny of the race. The personnel of this society is fine, its decorum excellent, and its purposeg and prin- ciples grand. = * Jno. McIntosh. A Sure Thing.

Thousands feel the first effect of cold in the kidneys; back-ache, rheumatic pains, urinary disorders, retention of urine, infrequent and too frequent urinary discharge tell of kidneys out of order. Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney ails from common back-ache to dangerous diabetes. A. T. Ritenour, owner of the wood yard at 125 East Cork street, Winchester, Va., says: "Ever since I had a tribute I have been a sufferer from kidney troubles, which made themselves apparent in racking pains through the region of the kidneys and across the small of my back. The pains were always severe, and sometimes so sharp and biting that they compelled me to take to my bed. The kidney secretions furnished further evidence of disorder. They were off color, irregular and painful of passage. Added to this there was an annoying weakness. The newspaper advertisements of Doan's Kidney Pills attracted my attention, and I procured a box of that remedy at Franck Baker & Sons' drug store. The relief I experienced was magical. The pills lifted me from my bed of sickness, placed me on my feet and made me a well man. I can work as well as ever. Doan's Kidney Pills, I believe, saved my life. They are a great remedy to stop kidney troubles resulting from colds."

Pinkham Medical Co., Lynn, Mass. ENGLAND MAY DISAPPEAR. The East Coast Said to Be Receding at an Alarming Rate. According to the London Express the inroads made by the sea into the east coast of England have seriously alarmed the local authorities, who have ineffectually spent many thousands of pounds in protective works, and an important conference was recently held at Norwich to consider this matter. The position of affairs is, indeed, very serious. Lowestoft, which has had to spend between £59,000 and £60,000 on protective works, has been especially hard hit. The north beach has been undergoing a steady process of denudation by the sea, while the Ness has all but disappeared, and the lighthouse has been at least three times reinoved further inland within living memory. At Kirkley and Pakefield, adjacent hamlets, houses built comparatively recently have had to be taken down to prevent them toppling over into the ocean. At Pakefield heaps of broken concrete lie strewn on the beach, all that remains of the protective works, and at a wreck a few weeks before Christmas the lifeboat could not be launched on account of the debris. Further south the cliffs have been washed quite away. A familiar instance of the ruin wrought by the sea further south is Dunwich, about five miles below Southwold. Once a flourishing town with a harbor and fishery extending to Iceland, and in earlier times a bishop's seat, Dunwich is now wiped out. Only a few crumbling walls denote the ruins of the sole surviving church on the cliff. The land there used to extend miles further out, and it is on record that over a score of churches stood where the ocean now reigns. Several other parishes have been practically blotted off the face of the earth in Norfolk by the encroaching sea, such as Little Waxham, Whimp well, Shipjanes and Keswick.

The spring is the time to treat catarrh. Cold, wet winter weather often retards a cure of catarrh. If a course of Peruna is taken during the early spring months the cure will be prompt and permanent. There can be no failures if Peruna is taken intelligently during the favorable weather of spring. At a systemic catarrh remedy Peruna cradicates catarrh from the system where- ever it may be located. It cures catarrh of the stomach or bowels with the same certainty as catarrh of the head.
