A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

The new eight-room house OF
A. H. Capps, at Pleasant Hill,
was completely destroyed by
fire, Tuesday afternoon. Practi-
cally the entire contents were
consumed also, and only a change
in the wind saYed the barns and
outbuildings.
Loss is unknown, but probably
over $4,000, with no insurance.
Origin of fire is a mystery.
Mr.. and Mrs. Capps spent the
day in town, leaving only seve-
raj children at home. The blaze
was first discovered by Samuel
King, who, aided by Rural Route
carrier. Albert Williams, saved
some few of the household goods
and carried several of the chill
dren out of the burning building
Mr.. Capps completed the house
only last Fall, and it is said Il
represented all his worldly posses
Sions.

MUST FILTER CITY WATER.
Will Have to Issue Bonds and
Buy Filter. State Board of
Health Practically Says So

The town of Hendersonville
will sod6 be the proud possessor
of aswater filter.
1t will cost about $5, 000- it is
believed.
Bonds for this amount will be
sold, and as it is a matter of pub
lie necessity, no election will be
necessary before those bonds
may be issued. :
The town authorities intended
to pipe the water supply direct
ly from the springs into the re-
servoir, but the State Board of
Health said nay. it wont do.
They claim the supply from the
springs would not be sufficient to
supply the town in the good old
summer time and that the sur
face water and streams on the
water shed would then be turned
into the reservoir.
The town council held a called
meeting Monday afternoon at
which the matter was thoroughly
discussed.
Mayor Station, ]. G. Morrow
and J. w. Mcintyre were ap-
pointed a committee to get the
necessary information about cost,
mode of operation, etc., of a
filter, and to report to the board
as soon as possible.
AS the State Board of Health
seems to be supreme in the mat
ter and as they insist on having
a filter installed, it is said there
is no way out of the matter ex-
cept to comply with their man
date.
BUT. it does seem remarkable,
as someone said at the meeting,
that it should be necessary to
filter mountain spring water.
And there still fingers in the
memory of many, that justly fa-
nous report from the State Board
of Health which stated there was
too much ALUM in Henderson
vile water. Alum is used in
filters, and the chemist analyz-
ing that particular sample OF
water evidently thought Hender.
sonville had filtration plant!

ing.

GROW BURLEY TOBAcGO !!
Madison County Farmers
Clear Handsome Profit.
offer of Free Seed

Editor Hustler:
Owing to the high prices of
RurIev Tobacco, and the con-
tinued war with Kentucky far
mers and the American Tobacco
n 7 would advise all farmers
Of Western North Carolina to
raise some hurley tobacco. 1t is
no more trouble to grow than
corn and it will pay from three
to ten times as much. 1t has
been thoroughly tested in Madi-
son county this past year and
everybody was well pleased with
the results.
The river bottoms of Hender-
son and Pennsylvania will grow
fine hurley tobacco. You do not
have to sit up with it, just hang
in the barn or shed and it will
cure itself.
Twill give all the seed the far
mers want if they will write me
at Barnard, N. C. Seed should
be sown from 1st of Feb, to
18th of March. l do not advise
the farmers to go wild over it,
but plant an acre or two and try
it. If it is a good thing l want
our people to get the benefit. 1t
has paid the farmers of Madison
this past year more than eighty
dollars per acre.

WILL ROGERS SUCCEED SELF
Able Corporation commi,.
sioner Talks toThe Hustler
About Third Term.

VIII Mr.. s.. L, Rogers, for
twelve yearsa faithful and eff
cientsmember of the Corporation
Commission of North Carolina-
be a candidate for a third, tern9
Just now that's a question of
keen interest to the politicians
and the people generally of the
entire State.
Mr.. Rogers spent Tuesday in
town hearing arguments in the
uptown express office matter,
His present term expires Jan.
l, 1911. His successor will be
elected this Fall for a term of
six years.
When asked by Hustler re-
porter, Tuesday, at the Hotel
Gates, whether or not he would
be a candidate, Mr.. Rogers said:
Naturally, l am disposed to
crafty the wishes of NY friends
in this matter, and when I find
those who have cheerfully aided
to my success aspiring to honors
to which / might contribute in
the comforting, it becomes a de-.
sire to do so, but I do not wish to
appear Indifferent to the con-
tinued friendship and loyalty of
those who express the hope that
| shall succeed myself on the
Commission.
Throughout. the State have
most cordial assurances of con-
Etinued preferment, hence I hesi-
tate to announce my deterni-
nation even if I had made it.
1--WE can accomplish much for
! the public good in the near future,
in my opinion, if the present
.tpolicy of the Commission to-
wards permanent improvements,
safety. increased facilities for
fceHafeEt and orvenience is con-
tinued and carried out. s-.. ..-s.l
II would, of course, enjoy
tseeing these things done. I am
sure, however, if another con-
test to be my own successor
could be construed by my party
friends as selfish, I would pre-
fer to be magnanimous and give
a clear field to those who have
so Loyalty done me honor.
1t is due my friends and the
public generally, however, that
! I make my position known to
them, which I shall soon do, that
they may choose, not hastily, my
successor for this important
place, a position which is grow
ing every year more important
to the transportation and busi-
ness interests of the State"

more than his match in the wo-

being placed in the buggy, but
biting through the heavy cords

DIES MONIES CALAMITY.

Des Moines is the victim OF a spread

Of the disease exist in the city is
matter mostly Of guess work BY pub
lshed reports. BIZ. an alarming ept-
demic Of typhoid fever is raging there
and, as usual. the wrang Cling Of com
missioners arises above the groans of
the sick and helpless. Mr.. MacVica: is
in conflict again with Mr.. Roe and has

to have daily analyses made Of the city
water and to publish the results OF the
ANALYSES and directing the superintend-

while sixty-one persons called up for
