Scout Cars Due About Saturday.

Mention was made last week OF the
starting OF the York Herald and
Atlanta journal automobile scout
cars in charge of Mr. Hamilton Peltz.
special representative OF the Herald,
and Mr.. John S. Cohen, managing
editor of the Journal. from Atlanta
Monday morning to try out the
Capital to Capital Route, one OF the
proposed lines OF the great National
highway which these two papers are
trying to construct between New
York and Atlanta Latest informa-
ton from the tourists is that the
| cars are we'll on the way, and every
| thing being favorable they are ex-
pected to reach Henderson Friday or
Saturday proably.
Messrs. Peitz and Cohen have been
met at various points along the way
and shown becoming courtesies. Upon
entering North Carolina delegations
will accompany them to some point
further on where they will be taken
in charge by an escort and piloted to
the next station" Henderson will
be represented among other towns.
| Mayor Powell writes to the News and
Observer that there will be a recep-
tion committee to meet the scout
party, and that everything will be
done to secure the route through
Henderson. The plan is for a COM
mittee to go from Henderson to Raj
eigh to meet the scout cars. Mr.. d.
Y. Cooper writes to the same paper
to say he thinks people are alive to
the advantages to be derived from
the construction OF such a road
through the country. The 'auto-
mobile boys" are ready and waiting
for the scout cars, he adds.
We are glad to know that Hender-
son will take cognizance of this mat
ter and show becoming courtesy and
hospitality to Messrs. Peltz and
Cohen Recently when they made the
| trip via the Northern route taking in
| Greensboro, wherever they went the
people received them with great cor
diality and showed them every hospi-
tality and attention, plotting them
along the route as they left each
place and giving them all the help
possible 1t is gratifying therefore
to be assured that Henderson will
not be conspicuous by it's absence
| among those who manifest an enthu-
siastic interest in the automobile
trip of Messrs. Peltz and Cohen and
the work undertaken by the two
great journals they represent.

Lyceum Course.

Manager J. S. Poythress has under
consideration the putting on of Ly-
ceum course this fall in addition to
the regular attractions that will be
presented at the Grand Theatre dur
ing the coming season. 1t depends
altogether upon the encouragement
he meets, whether enough tickets
are sold to justify it, whether this
course of attractions will be secured
or not There are six attractions -
some very fine ones in the course.
Season tickets will be sold at 5000,
each ticket good for two persons, or
twelve admissions at so cents an ad-
mission.
The course offered is one of the
Radcliffe Lyceum and Chautauqua
Bureau courses presenting high class
attractions and varied program
covering a wide range of entertain
ment.
There are many who hope Manager
Poythress may meet with encourage
ment and success in his efforts to Sc
cure this splendid course Of attrac-

To the Mountains Next Week.

The editor will be away next week
attending the meeting of the North
Carolina Press Association at Hen
dersonville. This is one OF the most
delightful regions of our mountain
section and the executive committee
chose we'll in selecting Henderson
vile out OF many other choice towns
as the place of meeting this year.
Secretary Sheriff. assures US that a
large attendance is promised. We
have been to Hendersonville before,
know something of the hospitality
and quality Entertainment OF those
good people and it is safe to predict
that no member who can possibly be
present will absent himself from the
meeting this year.
We expect to have company on the
trip OF course as any privilege or
pleasure to be derived would not be
half as enjoyable without the COM
panion of our joys and sorrows to
share it with u.s.
This is to say We are trusting the
paper and the household, respectively,
will get along some how and any i'm
provement shown in the conduct OF
either may be credited to Others.

ROBBED THE GRAVE.
Electricity Revived Man Listed for
the Morgue.

Electricity saved the life Of Joseph
Remillard, a baker 40 years OF age,
OF Worcester, Mass. He was pros
trated by the heat wave in that city
several weeks ago, taken to the hos
Dital and within a few hours declar-
ed dead. This week he walked from
the institution, literally from the
grave. The case is regarded as one
of the most remarkable ever brought
to the attention of physicians.
Remillard gave all the signs of
dissolution from heat prostration,
and his apparently dead body was
placed on a truck to be taken to the
morgue Instead of taking him to
the morguc. however, the doctor in
charge wheeled him in the electrical
apparatus room. where the physicians
tried tests on him with electrical
currents. He was revived and great
care was taken to nurse the spark
of life. until Remillard walked out,

bears a bad reputation in his COM

blind tiger for long time. and has
a term on the chain gang TO his credit
some years ago for selling whiskey.
The package he had in the wagon
was fifty gallons of alcohol to be
used in the manufacture of blind
tiger liquor. This has been captur-
ed by Magistrate Towles.' We call
tho attention of people who drink
blind tiger poison to the fact that
this man Messervey had in his po-
session fifty gallons Of alcohol out
OF which he intended to manufacture
whiSkey for his customers That is
why blind tiger whiskey causes peo-
pie TO commit such murders as some

NEW INVENTION.
Torpedo Can Be Controlled by
Wireless.
Wireless.


Think OF calmly standing on the
seashore and by means of small
key and no connecting wires being
able to annihilate an entire navy.
This has been rendered possible by
the invention of submerged tor
pedo propelled and controlled by
wireless electricity transmitted by
the wireless method-the work OF
Carl Abrahamson of San Diego, Cal.
The invention is SO simple that
wireless experts are wondering how
they overlooked it so long. The p:e-
pelling force is manipulated on the
same principle as the wireless tele-
graph. Electricity is transmitted
from aerial wires on shore to aerials
supported by cork floats and connect
ed with the propeller wheel OF the
torpedo, which is submerged. A
current powerful enough to send
sixteen-foot torpedo. of the type used
by the American navy, through the
water at speed of thirty-two miles
an hour can be transmitted, says the
inventor.
Control of the device is secured
by magnets set on each side Of the
propeller and connected with the
steering gear. These magnets are of
different degrees of sensitiveness and
are susceptible to varying degrees of
power in electric currents. The
variation in the amount of power
sent to the torpedo.-From Weird
Feats OF Wireless, in the August
Technical Magazine.
