-Four Men AGAINST Mob

ATLANTA, The bravery of
Sheriff Mckinney and three lone
deputies who. with drawn revol-
vers faced a mob of one thousand
angry men at Vienna today,
saved the life of Will Webb. a
negro charged with criminal as
sault. The officers leaped with
their prisoner into a near by

before one thousand thunder
struck people. The negro was
brought to Atlanta for safe keep

as walkers yesterday. Leaving
this city at 6 a.. M, they reached
Busbee at IL o'clock where they
took dinner at the home of Mrs.
Plat and rested until three
O'Clock and walked on into Ashe-
vile, arriving at Pack square at
5 p. m. So enthused were they
on arriving at Biltmore they did
not take the electric car but
walked the entire way. After
taking in several of the most
prominent places they went to
the depot and returned on No

than if they had gone on the

ONE OF THOSE SHUT
OUTS FOR RED BIRDS
Had Lynch's Crowd
at Their Mercy at Every
Stage of the Game. Stat
ford Was an Easy Mark
While Crouch Was Hard
to Touch.

1t looks as if Asheville is GER
tainly not in the same class with
the Plants whenit comes to fast
ball playing. The locals are
showing up to a fine advantage
in the past two games. Odds are
in favor of them for this after
moons battle. There is nothing
wrong with the stick work of
the locals for they can bend it
around most any ball. In yes
terday's game every man on the
team received at least one base
hit except one. Two of the
home team got as many as four
out of five times at the bat.
Asheville made a better start
in the game Friday than she
did the day before and it was
three innings before the locals
struck home plate. In this in
ming two of the boys came home.
In the fifth Asheville punched
errors and with several hits from
the locals they run in three more
scores. Turner on the Red Birds
was not up to his average by
good odds and is credited with
three serious errors at critical
times. He played first base yes
terday and properly muffed the
balls for want of a nit.
Crouch the local twirler GER
tainly redeemed himself yester-
day as a pitcher. He was almost
invisible to the visitors who
did manage to secure three small
hits. The errorless game on the
part of the Planets helped
things a whole lot.
Below is the box score and
summary:

Lost Best
Game of Season.

AsHEvILLE, N. ca good
clean cut game it was at River
side Wednesday; the fans were
happy, but the happiness of the
adherents of the local team did
not mount very high until the
last half of thetenthinning when
Swicegood hit a low one to cen
ter that brought in the run that
gave the Red Birds one more
than the one run the Planets
from Hendersonville had.
Both teams batted we'll, each
receiving five hits and both the
in and outfields played we'll, 9TH
erwise some of those hits would
have materialized into runs. Two
catches that would have been
sensational on any diamond were
made, one by Smith, pitcher for
Asheville, when he pulled a hot
liner that Workman sent hurting
over his head, out of the air, and
another just like it was when
Ruhl sent a scorcher to Work
man at short and he found it hid
in his nit when he brought his
hand back to his body.

Talk Of Reforms

RALEIGH, N. C.-There is con-
siderable talk among state officers
here about needed reforms in
methods of state legislation.
There is a strong endorsement of
a change proposed by a state Of
fetal especially close to the legis-
lative department that there
should be a change to six instead
of two year terms for legislators,
one third of the members to re-
tire every two years.

Institute Meetings.

Farmers Institutes will be
held at Brevard on Tuesday, Aug
ust 10; at Fletcher, Wednesday,
August II. Every farmer should
attend these meetings. The fu-
ture of agriculture in North Caro-
lima is bright, but it will be nee
essary for many of our farmers
to supplant many of their anti
quated methods and adopt more
rational ones, such as have been
proven to be better.

Stables Close Early.

A prominent farmer Of Green
vile county came to Henderson
vile last night through the coun-
try and says he was two hours
looking for a stable that was
open after 10 o'clock.
With all the stables in this
city it must be a mistake that
none are kept open all night.
It would be wise for those
that do keek open day and night
to advertise the fact
to the inquiring public.

ASheVHIG Girls Here.

A party Of pretty girls spent
the day in the city Saturday
from Asheville. They arrived
here early in the morning and
proceeded to walk to Flat Rock.
There they took dinner and re-
turned to Hendersonville early in
the afternoon. The young ladies
journeyed out to beautiful Lau-
rel Park where they enjoyed a
most pleasant afternoon in boat
rowing and mountain climbing.
Hendersonville is always
pleased to have such charming
guests in the city and it was
with regret that the ladies
found it necessary to catch the
late train for their homes in
Asheville. The party was COM
posed of the following young
ladies': Misses Elizabeth Nc
Mahon, Francis Howell, Estelle
Richardson, Martha Wetherly,
Wilhelmenia and Margaret Webb,
Mrs. H. j. Dean. They are all
from Nashville, Tenn, but are

Telephone Officials Here;
Meet In Court House

The officials of the Southern
Bell Telephone Company are in
the city and are to meet and dis
cuss the local situation with many
of the citizens in the court house
this afternoon.
Through the strenuous efforts
of Mr. Station this meeting with
the officials has come about.
Hendersonville has outgrown the
present system and it is the hope
of the citizens that some agree
ment may be the outcome of the
meeting this afternoon in which
the city may obtain as good, if
not better. service as any other
city her size. q
Considerable complaint h as
been made OF the present system
although it is a known fact that
with the facilities the local Office
has, they are getting the best
results. The telephone company
is now figuring on placing in a
new plant, which will cost in the
neighborhood of 500, 600

Hyomei is prepared from eucalyp-

germs will disappear.
The infiamed condition will go too,
and the snufing, hawking and Of
