he went to look after depart

for the fray" and anxious to
meet his republican opponent.

sonal work, meeting old friends
and shaking hands. He is an
adept at this business" also.

HGndGfSOnviNe S SkyIand 0.

Hendersonville defeated Sky

game, the score being 5 to 0.
Neither side scored until the third
inning, when, with one out,
Warren dropped a Texas league
over short stop, stole second and
scored on a single by Bryson and
a wild throw to- first. Edwards
and Rhodes knocked some red.
hot grounds which were safely
handled by the Skylander's
strong infeld and the side was
retired. ~ #
The game was snappy and fast
from the third inning, and it
looked as though the game would
end with score of / to o, but in
the ninthDrake started off with
a safe single, Justus bunted and
got safe to- first, Drake advanc-
ing to second. Wood bunted and
got safe to first. Justus went to
third and Drake was thrown out
close home. Then, Warren, our
new man from Durham, made
good by knocking out a beautiful
two bagger, scoring Justus and
Wood. Bryson hit safe and War
rem went to third.
The Hendersonville boys had
struck their batting streak at this
stage of the game and before
they were retired had piled up
four runs in this inning. Sky
land failed to score in the ninth,

the most successful of a long
series of similar social functions,
extending over a period Of nine
years.
There were many invited
guests from out-of-town, and
when the grand march ope ned
over 20 couples were on the floor.
In the german, the ladies were
presented with merry widow
hats of monstrous size, while the
gentlemen received chrysanthe-
NUNS. These flowers were also
used in the green and pink dec
orative scheme of the ball room,
over 700 magnificent specimens

contain scores of them, but the

Up to His Old Tricks Again.

J. S. Holbert brought us in two
magnificent peaches, Saturday,
grown on his farm near town.
They were both on one stem,
their dainty bushes hidden by a
few green leaves, they weighed
one pound, two and half ounces
and they certainly did look good
to us. Sure.
Ed" Brooks, cashier of the
Citizens Bank happened in the
Office and noticed the peaches
of course. Last Fall, when Mrs.
Mark Edney sent us bushel Of
fine sweet potatoes by Mr.. Brooks
we got two-he got the rest. He
noticed them, too. The pota-
toes were so large it only
took four to make the bushel, but
that dosn't make any difference.
It was the same way with the
rest Of the fine exhibition of Hen
derson County products which.
attracted so much attention in
the Hustler window last Fall-he
got the most of it, some way.
So it was Saturday. Mr.. Hol-
berts beauties were alongside that
great Alberta peach presented us
by Mr.. Marshall. Mr.. Brooks ex-
amined them critically. Admired
them. Made some remarks about
the weather and when we looked
again, the peaches were gone!.
Gone! gone forever! The finest
peaches ever shown in this town.
and Cashier Ed Brooks of the
Citizens Bank wears a self-satis-
fed, complacent smile, like the
cat wore after she swallowed the
canary.

only serious competitor. The Ho-
tel Gates has very large num-
Der of guests. The Wheeler is
filling rapidly. All the large board

ica1ly hotels, are full.
The weather has been, and is
delightful The roads are in good
condition for driving and aut-
omoblllng and~the livery stables
are all busy.
In the opinion of these compe-
tent to judge, the season will be
longer than usual, and it is a fact
that the tourists are learning
that the late season here is really
the most enjoyable, in many
respects, of the whole twelve
golden months.
