Fight With Wife
and SUICIDES
CQUIRES A LOAD OF FIRE
WATER AND THEN SHOOTS
SELF IN HEAD.

Indian Joe, quite familiar fig
re about the streets of Tonopah,
eparted for the happy hunting
round at about $3.50 O'Clock yes
erday morning by attempting to
wallow a bullet from a .92 cali
'er revolver. Joe was unsuccess-
ul in his attempt and as a conse-
luence he will be buried today at
he expense of the county.
The suicide was the elimination

md Joe Harrington, also an Indian,
Heer the chief participators Mixes
wife, Annie, admitted having in
1ulged a little bit in the fire wat
er but placed the blame of the
celebration on Joe. The four were
pretty well soused along about 3
o'clock when Joe conceived the idea
of suiciding, having previously had
a falling out with his squaw, who
is known as Matte. Joe's intem-
perate ways aggravated Matte and
she objected strenuously to seeing
her hard earned wages, the result
of hours spent over the wash
board, spent for whiskey and the
pair agreed to disagree Thursday
night and Matte returned to her
cabin and did not join in the cele-
bration
Joe, on his return from town Sc
cured his revolver from a grip and
the land of his ancestors. Mike
tried to dissuade him and Joe
started out on lone walk around
Mt. Brougher. The camp of the
Indians is located on that noun
tain near the end of Bryan avenue
Joe had only traversed short dis
lance when Mike and Annie caught
up with him. Mike argued with
his companion while Annie walked
along behind. Suddenly Joe pulled
the revolver from his pocket ant
placing the muzzle at his chin fired
the shot that ended his existence.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mike, after a hur
ried examination of the body
which showed that death resulted
almost instantaneously, returned t.
their mansion and communicate

A War Time Gold Dollar.

Hal Ripley is the owner of an
ancient looking, much battered
one dollar gold piece, made in
Henderson county, by a Hender-
son man, Of Henderson gold.
Nr. P. F. Patton, of the. Wan
teska Bank, says the gold in the
little coin was taken from Little
river and from the Boilston mine,
by Adam Bechtler, who at that
time owned land In this county. 1t
is said the Confederate govern
ment, during the war times, gave
certain people permission to mine
these coins. This one bears the
inscription, IA. Bechtler, One
Dollar" " and some figures so worn
a sto be almost obliterated.
For some one having the time
and the inclination, here would
seem to be something worth work
ing up into little historical
sketch. A gold dollar, made by
a Henderson county man, out of
gold actually panned from a Hsn-
derson county river, under the
conditions then existing, furnishes
an interesting foundation for a
story of good local interest. It
seems to us that it is now up to
Mr.. j. R. Hill, whose very inter
esting Tragedy of Jump Off
Mountain is concluded In this
issue, to take hold of it and pre-
sent it to the Daily Herald's s read

TUNITY.

Hendersonvilel has had the
,onor, during the past three
oors of entertaining many con-
on+ions of distinguished men
md invariably has Henderson
Vile taken such good care of her
guests that they have been an1-
ieus to return.
But on August %, there will be
Gathered in this city a hundred,
a. more. of men who play a most
important part in the industrial
life of the United States and Can
oda-men from every state In the
Union and from every Province in
Conada-men who, from Charles
p Neil. United States Commits
sioner of Labor, down to the rep
rosentatives of Canada s least i'm
portant province, are In intimate
touch with the great, throbbing
industrial life of the two nations.
These men are the Labor COm-
missioners of the United States of.
America and of Canada, and the
International Association of Fac
tory InspectOrs-whO will hold
their annual convention In Hen
dersonville, beginning August %.
After their two days session in
Hendersonville, the distinguished
men comprising these two infu-
entail organizations will leave on
a special train for a trip through
the Piedmont textile manufacture
inc section of South Carolina to
Greenville and Pelzer, where they
will inspect the mammoth manu-
featuring plants which have help
ed to place the Great South at the
head of the industrial parade of
the country.
From there they go to Colum-,
bia, where the most elaborate pre-
parations for their entertainment
are being made by the Columbia
Chamber of Commerce.
The fact that these men have Sc
lected HendersonviHe, in prefer
ence to all other cities in the Unit
ed States and Canada as the one
best place for their joint conven-
ton is a deserved recognition Of
the towns reputation for hospi-
taity and ability to take proper
care Of it's guests.
Their last convention was held
IN Rochester, New York and their
Mr.. NJ. L. Shipman, Commissioner
Of Labor and Printing of North
Carolina, presented the claims of
Hendersonville in so convincing a
manner that his brother commits
aoners decided unanimously that
Hendersonville was logically en-
titled to the 1910 convention, not
outstanding other prominent
cities IN the Union were there with
invitations for the next meeting.
The City of the Glad Hand, !"
as Mr.. R. G. Clarke so aptly chris
tened Hendersonville, now has a
duty to perform, and it goes with
out saying that duty WILL be
Performed.
These two organizations, com
posed OF men from every state
and every Province in the country
and Canada, must be properly en-
'ertalned while here.
These are the most important,
me most influential organizations
nendersonville has ever had the
privilege of entertaining.

and far-reaching.

Mr.. w. M. Thompson, of Polk
County, which Jim" Shipman
says is the best county on earth,
was in town today with a wagon
load of great, luscious peaches,
which found a ready sale In town.
Mr.. Thompson is also the fortu-
nate owner of an apple orchard
from which, he says he will har-
vest over five thousand bushels
of apples, this fall. This or
chard is on the Mills Gap Road,
In Polk, and is in good shape.
Ex-Sheriff j. S. Rhodes is the
proud possessor and owner and
also grower of a monstrous pep
per, a green pepper, which weighs
over one pound and resembles a
small watermelon In size. Mr..
Rhodes declines to state just what
the political significance of this
phenomenon may be. He says at
one time he thinks it means one
thing, and then again, after a
more careful consideration of the
matter he is inclined to think. it
may possibly mean another. He
is sure, however, that it indicates
slightly the size of the bumper
crops which are going to be har-
vested In old Henderson County
this fall. And the genial ex-
sheriff is correct there.

Hoboken, N, j., Aug. 10.-May-
or Gaynor was resting well this
morning, and his condition, dur
ing the early hours, was such as
to give some hope to the doctors.
He slept about three hours during
the night, and on awakening this
morning his wife and daughter
were allowed to see him fer ten
minutes. He was cheerful, and
when given some weak broth re-
marked that cit tasted good. "
He also said that he was hungry
and hoped he would soon be able
to eat something more substan-
tial.
