THE BLUE RIDGEINN.
1t Did Not Close when Mr. Fletcher
Left,

4 recent item that the Blue Ridge
Inn at Mount Airy had closed turns
out to be erroneous. After Mr.. West
brook gave up the management, the
Inn was conducted by II. d. Fletcher
and J. M. Turley. Mr.. Fletcher ceas-
ed his connection a short time ago
and that gave rise to the statement
that he and his partner had given up.
The Blue Ridge was oTened August
1st, 1892, and has never been closed a
day since that time. 1t is known as
one of the best two dollar hotels in
North Carolina and has been exten
sively patronized by travelling men
and the public generally. We under
stand that Mr.. Hurley is manager
for the hotel company and that a re-
cent improvement makes the Blue
Ridge more popular than ever.

patch to the Times from Meshed

quake that occurred Friday at Kuchan,

growth of sofa beans raised by Mr..
Harry Thornton on his farm near
New Garden. On one stalk of these

nine well developed pods, each con-
consider that this is the product from
one single seed, it will be seen that
