Lola jumped from the tallyho and

he thought he would never see her
alive again, but she drove back all
right. The Doctor had never heard
anything derogatory to Lolas char

Lynn Oak had always had a good

witness placed upon the stand. He
is the son of Capt. ]. c. Reynolds
proprietor of the Palace Hotel OIL
this city, who has summer home
at Weaverville, a few miles from
Asheville. Became acquainted with
Miss Walker at Viewers barn,
where she drove up in vehicle
called a bike" Edwards called
him out and introduced him. After
that, while driving with his wife,
Mrs. Seals and Mrs. Spratt, met
Edwards and Lola driving. Didn't
stop to talk to them; spoke to Ed
wards as the vehicles passed each
other, but didn't remember speak
ing to Miss Walker. Turned around
to look after the vehicle and noticed
package in the rear Of the vehicle
which looked like bundle wrapped
in wet tow sacks. What this was
has not been explained, but it is
evident that the defense will show
that it was some kind of drinks,
probably beer. After the introduc.
tion to Lola at Weaver's barn, wit
ness and Dick and Lola went to
Brooks photograph gallery, where
they saw some pictures of Lola in
costume. One of the pictures, "The
Models Rest" was produced and
identified. Witness said that Miss
Walker gave him copy of this pic
ture, and that Col. Edwards pur-
chased another picture of plaintiff.
Witness afterwards gave the pic
tnre Miss Walker gave him to Col.
Edwards. He gave the photo to
Edwards because he didn't want it.
Stated that the general reputation
of Lola and Mrs. Cullen was bad,
Cross-examined by Judge Moore:
Edwards wasn't IN Asheville when
witness father arrived in Asheville.
Edwards was good friend of his
father; was around t lie Palace a
good deal; drinks there occa sion
ally, every day or two. Never saw
Miss Walker until he met her at |
Weaver's barn, Weaver n or the
Col. had ever mentioned her before
he met her at TIE barn. The FIRST
witness knew Of Lola going to New
York was what he CLEANED from the
newspapers. Had never seen Mrs.
Cullen before Lola left for New
York. No one had told him of Mrs.
Cullen or Lola before the latter
vent to New York, and at that
lime didn't know the reputation Of
either. Had heard some of the talk

Objected to by Judge Moore as te
who was Miss Maudina Lewis, and
objection sustained; also sustained
as to whether she was widow,
married lady, grass widow or maid.
Objections sustained as to the con-
duct of Miss Lewis while there. A
small picture of two ladies in a
group was shown, but as to who
they were was objected to by Judge
Moore and sustained. The witness
stated that the picture had been
given her by Mrs. Cullen. The pic
ture created some discussion be-

shown to the jury.
Court opened Tuesday morning
with the deposition of DR.. G. S..
Tenant, Of Ashevilly.
Sheriff Chiles has shown as much
wisdom as any one connected with
this case Realizing the fact that
the jurymen are from the rural dis
trict, used to plenty of outdoor ex-
ercise and recreation, and knowing
that change of water and diet
would probably result in the illness
of one or more of the Iurymen, has
considerably prohibited them from
using ice water, and allows them
to have no fresh meats. All recog-
nike that this case is costing the
county many dollars, and every tax
payer wishes to see it come to a
head at this special term, be the
verdict as it may.
Tenant said he knew Lola by
sight in 1908. the year Of her elope-
ment to New York. Two or three
weeks previous TO seeing the new s.
paper articles about her elopement
to New York he had seen her two
or three times late at night, and

KAISER rlAY COME
KAISER WILHELn AND KING ED.
WARD VII MAY MEET AT
THE JAMESTOWN
EXPOSITION

Norfolk, Va.-The Londo o n
Daily Telegraph urges King Ed
ward to pay a visit to America
next year. The kings itinerary
would include a visit to Presi-
dent Roosevelt at Washington,
a sojourn in Norfolk, Virginia,
to witness the Jamestown Ex-
position, which in 1907 is to
commemorate the settlement of
America by English speaking
people. If King Edward decides
to throw precedent to the winds
and again visit America-he was
here as Prince OF Wales-he will
also visit New York and Cana
da.
1t is we'll known that the re-
lations between the English
King and Queen and the Lon
don Daily Telegraph are most
cordial. When he was Prince of
Wales, the present king was in
strumental in having the pro-
prietor of the paper knighted.
1t is therefor reasonable to as
sume that the warmth and en-
thusiasm of the Daily Telegraph
over the question of the kings
visit to America meets with the
approval and sympathy of the
monarch. 1t may be, indeed,
that the opinions were inspired
by a nod or word from the king
and it remains to be seen how
the British people regard the
matter as a whole. At present
it looks as though the king may
yet plant a tree on the grounds
of the Jamestown Exposition
sit under the spreading branches
of the great Powahatan oak
which was a mature tree when
King James granted the Vir-
ginia charter-and drink from
the old Indian Spring from
which Pocah ontas quenced her
thirst.
That the Kaiser is more than
likely to visit America and the
Exposition we may infer from
presumably inspired article by
Herr Albrecht Wirth of Munich,
one of the most distinguished
professors at the Bayarian Uni
versity, who is a noted writer
on political affairs and in close

Fight 1t With Its Own Weapon.

1t is rumored that the Mont
gomery Ward mail order firm
does an annual business Of S3S,-
100000, which isn't bad for one
firm, that's sure. But the great
est mistake this firm makes, ac-
cording to the idea of some
business men, is to elbow in" or
"throw away" $6,OO0,OO0 on ad
vertising. Yet everybody will
admit that Montgomery Ward
is a smart man and a good
business manager, and every
paper of any Importance that
will accept his advertising is
just full of it. 1t is the mistak'
en- idea of too many country
merchants to "get together" as
one man says, and curse the
mail order business until they
have shamed it out of existence;
and all the time they are doing
this Montgomery continues to
advertise and do business. The
best weapon the country mer-
chant has is his local paper. II
it is a business getter for the
mail order firm it would be for
the country merchant. In his
local paper tue country mer
chant has the privilege of prov
ing to the people that he com
petes with the mail order firms
and that he sells better goods
for the same money, but tC
squat and expect to lick the
other man way over in Chicago
by cursing him is certainly 6
mistaken idea as to the most
effective way of putting suct
concerns out of business. The
best way to fight the mail order
business is to wake up and gel
before the people as Montgomery
Ward did and stay before th'
people as he does. Every bust
ness man should make provision
for his advertising as he does
for his rent, his taxes, his insur
ance, and his help.-Ex.
