WANTED HIS DOLLAR BACK
A United States Senator's Mistake in
Making a Trip.

Almost everybody in North Caro-
lima was q personal friend Of Major
Ed. Mckissick. who for a number of
years was proprietor of the famous
Battery Park Hotel at Asheville. He
counted his friends by the thousand.
from President Mckinley down. Sew
eral years ago a distinguished member
Of the United States senate got mar
ried and arranged to spend his Money
moon at the Battery Park and natu-
rally Major McKiSsick and the citizens
wanted to entertain him in royal style.
McKisSick took personal charge of the
plans and he went down to the station
in 4 carriage to meet the hOnored
guest. He took the bride and groom to
the carriage. rode with them to the
hotel. and then escorted them to the
finest apartments in the house. AS he
was turning to leave the senator hand
ed the hotel man a silver dollar. and
McKissick pocketed it with a very
graceful bow. That evening OF the pub
lie reception the proprietor-porter was
presented. The senator was rattled.
Damn you he said. as he got be-
yond the ears OF his new wife. give
me back tina dollar" but he didn't
get it. And that. perhaps. was the ONLY
member of the senate who didn't know
the Asheville man.-Raieigh Times.

HELD UP SIX ONT
Licenses to Asheville Saloons Pending
Investigations Into Liquor Laws.

Asneville, y. c., December Sit is
stated that pending an investigation
of charges of violation of the liquor
law the board of county commissioners
has deferred granting license t. Ashe-
Vile saloons for the next six months,
o January 1, until July 1, 1906. The
board will meet in special session De-
cember 20 to pass finally upon the
matter.
This action of the board came as a
surprise.
At Il recent meeting of the board of
aldermen, the applications presented
to that body with n or two excep-
tons, were fayorably passed upon, but
it is necessary also for a saloon keeper
to secure a license from the county
board, and heretofore the county board
has always acted very promptly in
this matter.
The petitions for license We're pre-
scented yesterday-Special to News and
Observer.

Supposed to be Dead. ,

Jackson Emory who disappeared
from his home in Wake county some
seventeen or eighteen years ago.. has
turned up" in East Durham, where
his wife has made her home for a num-
Der of years.
The story of this in real
life is that nearly a score of years
ago Jackson Emory disappeared from
his home. without giving anv warning
to his wife and their several children.
or to their friends. Later Mrs. Emory
heard that her husband had gone to
a foreign portion of the country and
then anne the news of his death.
With the several children Mrs. En-
DRY moved to East Durham and has
since that time made her home there.
being known as the widow Emory.
She had Ions thought her husband
dead and had time and again old her
friends that she was a widow and that
her husband had died several year
ago..
But the truant husband was not
dead. He has now made his appear
ance in Fast Durham and is visiting
friends. Beyond the mere fact that
he disappeared and that he ha now
shown up among friends and near his
home Of years ago very little is known
about his career since he left here,
forsaking so much as giving them his
address.
It is not known that he has visited
his former wife or that they have met
ince the husbands return. An effort
has been made to get these facts. but
no n seems to now and the facts
are hard to get.-Durham Herald.

A TOWN
Clinton One OF the Most Prosperous
Towns i'm Eastern Carolina-A Most
Unusual Accident-Much Holly Be-
ing Shipped North From Points
Along the Coast Line.
Especial to The Messenger.)

Especial to The Messenger.)
Clinton, N. c., December 6.-There
was a very unusual occurrence in this
town today. A driver of the Carolina
Veneer Works drove a large dray
horse into an urusued we'll which was
covered with loose plank. 1t requir-
ed several hours work to get the horse
out. Fortunately he did not go down
head foremost. The horse was appar-
rently unhurt.
Clinton has made such progress re-
Gently that persons who have not Wis
tied it in some years hardly recognize
the truth. A new $4,000 courthouse
adorns the public square and hand
some brick commercial buildings sur
round it on every side. The opening
of the city public schools marks a
new era along educational lines. The
community has undergone an awaken
ing on this important matter and can
now boast one of the best schools in
the state.
An absorbing industry at present Is
the gathering of holly which is being
shipped north by the car load for hol-
iday decoration. The woods along the
Atlantic Coast Line are being stripped
of this tree and the birds that feed
upon the holly berry in winter must
look out for some other means OF
keeping soul and body together. The
buying of holly in large quantities for
the decoration Of many homes and
public buildings but reflects the pros
porous condition of the country in gen.
eral.
Mr.. Ransom Reynolds, a well known
farmer of this county, was today TAX
en- to Raleigh for treatment at the
state hospital He has for the second
time become mentally unbalanced
from brooding owe peculiar religious
views which he entertains.
One of the most noticeable results
Of 10 and IL cent cotton In this Sec
ton is the increase in value of real
estate. Farming lands conveniently
located have more than doubled in
value within the past two years In
consequence there have been many
changes in ownership Of lands.
Clinton has recently been consider
ing propositions OF putting in water
works and electric lights. No definite
decision has yet been reached.
