He is well worthy of honor; Is an orator of the mag netic type, always a vote-winner and in the West his connection with the ticket would evoke enthusiasm in halr a dozen States and make many thou sands of new Democratic votes
 The suggestion contained in MT. Nor sells remarks about the Wisconsin sit- uation of Hon. David Rose for the second place of the presidential ticket has favorably impressed the advocates here of the no ination of Judge Parker.

At the same time it was discovered that a certain brok- craze firm called Hussa Ss Co.,, which has offices at 66 Beaver Street, were concerned In the affair.
 Careful investigation disclosed that the Frenchman was M. A. Horontzs rep resentative of A. Ekmayaan. diamond broker of Paris, and that the value of the cargo fastened to his person was no less than $330,000. Moreover. it was learned that the diamonds are of an ex- traordinary character, including red, yellow, blue. green and violet stones. a single one of which is worth as much as $50,0O
 Uncle Sam. however. is not an easy person to defraud. Monsieur Horontz. as 1t was afterwards 1earned--to the destruction of romance--is taking the jewels to the St. Louis Fair for exhfbi- ton, and the Government has bond for $3300 to guarantee that they will be returned to Europe and not sold in this country.
 It was all arranged beforehand. The other two men. are to protect him from possible attack and robbery.

GsThe Land of The Sky.o

'The Land of the Sky" in Western North Carolina, between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Iron and Unaka ranges of Eastern Tennessee, is at it's lowest point more than two thousand feet above the level of the sea; it IS situated in the most favored portion of the temperate zone, trav ersed by splendid rivers and dotted with beautiful lakes.
 From the moment the traveller en- ters this region until duty forces him to leave it, nothing that is unpleasing greets his eye. The charm of this land is real; its delights an actuality.
 Asheville is the central city of this favored region; it has several large and fine hotels, and is a town of com mercial importance. The season at closed and the visitor is made welcome. At all times we find Asheville a pleas ant spot, full of life, of color and of enjoyment, rich with possibilities, for health and recreation. The drives around Asheyille are unexcelled for the lovely views they afford. Horseback riding is in great favor and bicycling and automobiling are popular.
 In arranging a summer trip, how ever, the Sapphire country should not be overlooked; it is one of the most delightful in all this vast area of hill and dale, field and forest, taking in Lake Toxaway, Fairfield and Sapphire. The physical contour of this region is strikingly similar to the English lake district, but is as a whole grander in every way. Its mountains are more than twice the height of their English compeers; its torrents more impressive, Its lakes bluer and more picturesque

ALL DUE TO CLOWRY
STOPPED RACE NEWS ON HIS OWN
 RESPONSIBILITY.
Jacob H schifT Tells of the Cutting or of the Service-Jessup and Gould Heartily ApprOv-
 ed Step.

New York, May 23.-Actuated by the belief that the attitude of President Clowry and other Western Union of ticials has been misrepresented and mis- understood in the pool room controversy Jacob H. Schiff, New York, head of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, and a Western Union director, today made the following state- ment:
 Prior to reaching home last Tuesday I knew almost nothing about this mat ter, but was soon in possession of the facts. I had an interview the following day with Morris K. Jessup, whom l found very much exercised over the situation, but who gave the assurance that George J. Gould could be relied upon to throw his influence in the direction of what was justly demanded by public opinion.
 MT. Gould had told MT. Jessup with out reserve that He would rather have the entire receipts of the Western Union Company thrown into the street than have one dollar of them tainted with gambling or wrong doing of any kind.
 Soon after my interview with MT Jessup, I attended the executive meet ing of the Western Union Company. l found President Clowry in waiting and he immediately submitted for their ap- proval the order he had already pro- muIgated stopping on his own responsi- bility special race track service all over the country.
 This was unanimously approved by the committee, but it is only just to MT. Clowry to say that the initiative was taken entirely by him and that If it has been publicly stated that I or any one else prompted this action such a state ment is without truth.
 ''I can only repeat that President Clowry in the first instance, as well as MT. Gould and MT. Jessup. deserves the credit in my judgment for having done with such promptness what was properly dar,anded bv public opinion"
