No LIBEL AGAINST
]. ". 4. REDHOUSE

The charge of criminal libel laid
against Gerhard Dietz by j. w. A.
Redhouse was dismissed yesterday. a
demurrer being sustained. The charge
arose out of the publication in the Ad-
vertiser some time ago of a commune
cation, written by Dietz, in which the
story of the suicide of E. F. Horniff,
whose body was found in the crater of
Diamond Head, was referred to and
statement made that there was a pair
in Honolulu with guilty knowledge of
how he had really come to his death.
Redhouse regarded the communication
as libel upon himself and his wife
and instituted proceedings against the
writer
In giving ruling on the demurrer
yesterday, Judge Whitney stated that
there was nothing in the published
communication to connect the COM
witness and his wife with the
charge made, that it could be con-
strued as referring equally as strongly
to any other man and his wife in the
city and that nothing had been shown
by the complaining witness from the
article that it did in fact refer to him.

"One Of my first recoIlections,' said

whose mustache is gray, is that of
looking from our front windows to
watch the fishing schooners pitching
at anchor in the bay. I learned to sail

The Rooster and The Bag.

That was q shocking occurrance on
Main st., last Sunday. People who wit
messed it shuddered and turned pale and
asked themselves ia there no limit to
mans brutality? Is there no depth, to
the 6epravity of human natureP What
punishment would fit those guilty OF
this nameless atrocity? Where were
Mayor Schenck and Zeb Arledge, zeal
Gus guardians of the public veal while
this black blot was being thrown on the
fair name of our city?
Those who witnessed the terrible
sight shuddered and felt the hand of
fear, cold and remorseless, grasp their
hearts, and turned away, sick with q
nameless dread.
1t was rooster: with big inflated
bag fastened to his tail by long stringl
He was tearing madly up and down
Main ST., torn by conflicting emotions,
sometimes on his feet, sometimes In
the air, and going so fast there seemed
to be just one long streak of rooster. he
seemed worried and slightly annoyed
about something, and didn't seem to
care much who was elected tax collect
or or who went to jamestown free. He
bad something else to think about and
didn't .csic if the lake was built or not.
Finally the string broke and the .SStst
seen OF that dignified bird he was head
Ell for Capt. Toms swimming pool.
If the guilty parties are found they
will taken before the tax assessors and
compelled to list all their property at
its full value.
The city authorities say this may be
q severe punishment but they are deter
mined to protect the rights of every
rooster in town.

NEEDS SUM
OF 5000

For the first time in its history, Fruit
land Institute is now out of debt.
There is now being erected new
building, of 80 rooms, to be used as a
bows dormitory. Sufficient money has
been subscribed by the friends of the
Institution to erect this building, $2,500
Of this amount having been paid in by
friends who live outside of Henderson
county, The building is to be heated,
nlumbing must be installed and suff1-
cient inside furnishings procured to
make it suitable for home for the boys
For this purpose about 5000 will be re-
quired. ;,
We believe we need only to call the
attention of residents of this county to
this need and it will soon be supplied.
Fruitlaud certainly has 600 friends here
who will subscribe one dollar each Tor
this most praisworthy and laudaole pur-
pose. If $2,5 500 can be raised outside
of the county surely 5000 may be raised
nv its friedds right here at home.
The French Broad Hustler will start
it. off with one dollar, and subscriptions

The Line as it Is to-day

lieve the money should be expended for
the direct benefit of the men who fur
nish it. We are willing to help the col
lege, but prefer to be free to work along
our own lines.
''Iu this connection, possibly brief
outline OF the work we are earring on
may be OF interest.
"The work done by the department
in the past five years in the cattle quar-
antine question aloneis saving the far
mers Of the state at least $50, 900 per
year, in enabling them to market their
cattle At higher price, besides the
losses previously sustained FROM Texas
fever, or what we call the 'dssiember,' .
which amounted to many thousands of
dollars each year. A glance at the
map will show more fully than lean ex-
plain just what has been accomplished
in this most important matter.
'sThrough the vigorous work OF the
department, the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture has become kOenly
Interested, and is now working in con-
nection with the State, and have, right
now, more than q dozen men assisting
In the work, which, in few years from
now we believe will cover the entire
State.
''Then there is the coil survey, q mos
important branch of the department
work, the object being to find out just
what class of fertilizer is best adapted
TO the various kinds of soils. 1t win be
readily seen how this sayes the farmer
thousands of dollars annually. There
are i've different soils in North Caro-
lima, and the Ingredients Of one class o
fertilizer would by no means meet the
requirements of all soils.

Came to see the Court House.

A party of Madison county officials
were in town last Friday, who came
over from Marshal to inspect the Court
House. They were very much pleased
with the building and will recommend
that the new one which will be built in
Marshal be built on the same plan. The
approximate cost will be about $50, 900.
The parry OF inspection was composed
OF W. G. Ammons, chairman board Of
county commissioners; who remarked
that Heudersotville, he believed was
the finest town In the stAte;A. q. Bryan,
msmbsr of the board; III. Bailey, county
attorney and editor of the newly estAb-
lished paper in Marshal;and RS. Smith,
the we'll known Asheville architect, who
designed the Henderson county court
house.

expert along that line, and q great In
terest has been awakened in the Eastern
and Western part of the state in those
important Industries. The State Horti-
culturist showed the farmers OF; Brunhy
Mountain how to spray their trees; the
result was they wanted an experimental
farm in their locality. The people Of
Cherokee mountains are also inslstent
for farm. There is nothing which can
take the place OF an actual demonstra-
ton rs to how to do certain thing, and
this is what the Department il now
doing, and with success.
THE Board of Agriculture desires,
in the near future, to place small expert
mental farms in various other parts of
the state, in addition to those already
in, operation.
"The farmers institutes are becoming
. great factor in the developments of the
States agriculture, and the interest and
attendance upon them is most crafty
ing. They result in bringing the farm
ers in contact with one another, and in
contact with mon who are theoretical a.
well as practical along the various agri4
cultural lines. There are 81 countiesN
in the state. We have held 164 insti-
tutes with an average attendance of l25.
The average attendance, when / first
became member of the board was from
