Tenn., Feb. 3. Mrs. Rachel Jackson Lawrence, daughter of General Andrew Jack son's adopted son, died here today. Mrs. Rachel Jackson Lawrence, who when a child played In the White House at Washington back in the thirties, was the only surviving member of the Immediate, house hold of General Andrew Jackson, seventh president of the United States. Mrs. Lawrence was the eld est child of General Jackson's adopt ed son, Andrew Jackson, Jr., and his wife, Sarah Yorke Jackson.

After that time, until the General's death June 8, 1845, when she was In her 13th year little Rachel became more and more the object of his tender devotion.

"It Is apparent that tha papera in question have some object In view not for the good of the senate or the state at large.

A crowd Which tilled the high school gymnasium to capacity and cauaed many to be turned away, laat night watched tbe local basketball players tromp on the Ashland team by a score of 23 to 7. Roseburg had the game sewed up and tucked away ln the first few minutes of play and Ashland never had a ahow after the- game waa started. A mora brilliant display ot basketball ability haa not been seen In many years than- waa shown by the high school last night and if the team can hold the pace set ln the first part of last night game there Is no queation aa to tbe resting place of the state laurels. Ashland's team was good, and, In fact equal to the average high achool team, but Ita playera displayed a lack Of experience wnicn aenousiy handicapped them ln laat night's contest. The visitors were completely baf fled by Roseburg's defense system and were entirely unable to get a decent shot at the basket. Just once an Ashland player got through the Koseburg defense with the ball and " obtained a ahot at the hoop and It was aa unexpected. that Jie missed . the opportunity to score.. All of Ashland's shots were long ones they had to be because they couldn't get the ball beyond tbe center of the floor. The visitors shot only two field goals, ln spits of the fact that the Ashland forwards bad the appearance of being good basket shots at close range. Coach Larsen haa developed a de fenae which worked properly abso lutely prevents the visiting team from getting near tha Roaeburg basket. It Ia not a difficult play hut It Is effective and results In per fect protectlou for the basket, de fended by the local team. In no game played thla season have the high school opponents been able to solve the defensive system. No team baa ontaineo mom than six field banket, and for a time last night It appeared that Roaeburg would shut Ashland out entirely. Roseburg's only weak point Is In Its offensive. During the first part of last night's game the team did rnlrly well ln ita offensive work and shot bsskets with fair accuracy, hut even then many ahota went wild. In the last half the Roseburg toss ers missed shot after shot and ln a crucial game would have aultered greatly from thla fact. The team also displayed an Inability to con vert foula Inlo scores and tew tree throws were completed. If the Roseburg players can Im prove their basket shooting to a de gree anywhere near their ability on the defi-n.e. there will be nn diffi culty at alt In wiWng awny with the state. But In met- Inc some of the stronger teams the local boys will find their poor basket shooting a oisaovaniage. They started last nignrs conieni Ith a rush. For the first four minutes both teams were ngnuun hard and appeared about equal. But after fonr minutes of play Roseburg penetrated the Ashland acrense anu the baskets then began to roll In. After a few minutes of play with the Koseburg scoro mounting higher snd higher while Ashland's -score waa still nil, tbe visitors frantically called for time and held a confer ence on the floor. After talking thlnga over they came back a little stronger hut still failed to stop the Roseburg plsyers who annexed 18 points before Ash land changed Ita lero to one by con verting a foul. Ano'her confer ence Vaa called and thla time the Ashland coach decided on a change and sent In a fresh man and pulled hla galloping center, sun KoseDurg led and Coach Larsen decided the team was far enough ahead for safety and pulled out three of the playera and sent In new men.
