A PROSPEROUS DISIllEaY

Last night a highly successful raid

moved, the beer, because of its bulk1-

mad scramble for safety, had been
left as the sole monarch in the receiE
ing line for the officers.
And what a reception! That which
had been manufactured to tickle the
palate of man and raise him, posi-
bly,, to a higher plane of ecstacy, was
now being incontinently poured out
on the unresponsive earth. The de-

began TO cast about for some of the

Bold Burglars EIude Capture.

A bold burglary was perpetrated
last Saturday night when the resi-
dence of Mrs. J. III. Tinley who lives
about two miles out of the city on
the Edneyville road, was entered and
several articles of value were stolen.
The thief, or thieves, gained access
through one of the windows which
they managed in some way to work
loose. They evidently took plenty Of
time for their nefarious work because
everything which might prove OF
value to them seemed to have under
gone thorough inspection.
Bloodhounds were secured from
Asheville in the early part of the af-
ternoon and put upon the trail Of the
midnight intruders They followed
the trail for some distance but finally
lost it. A close, thorough, search for
the. robbers was made but no positive
clue has yet been discovered.

FINE FISHING AT, KANUGA.
Much Success Attending Efforts of
the Members of the Kanuga Club
at Fishing in the Lake-Fine Sport
Being Enjoyed.

Disciples of Isaak Walton, particu-
larly such as, reside in Charlotte, were
delightfuly surprised by the item APP
pearing in yesterdays Observer to
the effect that the ban on fishing at
Kanuga lake had been lifted and that
the first days efforts of the anglers
had ben rewarded with such splendid
success.
The achievement of young Thomas
Prescott of Atlanta in landing some
of the finest rainbow trout ever seen
in that section of the State and the
catches Of, other guests fired the 9TH
ers with zeal, as the following tele-
gram dispatched post haste to Mr.. w.
H. Twitty here by Mr.. John M. Scott,
both ardent anglers, will testify:
Kanuga Lake, July IA.
Mr.. VIII. Twitty, Charlotte, N. C.
Eleven 12-inch rainbow trout
caught from the lake in one hour this
afternoon. Come tomorrow sure. or
send me something to fish with bby
express toomrrow morning train.
(Signed JOHN NJ. SCOTT
1t goes without saying that ample
tackle was forwarded to Mr.. Scott
and it is the plan of Mr.. Twitty, Mr.
Walter Brem and several others ito
Join him in person in day or twos
The fish in Kanuga lake we're
planted there three years ago by Mr..
George Stephens, founder Of the club.
OF course there were some fsh there
already but 80 900 fine speefmehS
were added. These were secured
from the government. No one has
ever been allowed to fish in the lake
and hence the trout are just reaching
that size where they give good sport
1t is expected that the fishing feature
will be one of the most popular forms
of amusements for the Kanugans from
this time henceforth. The early
spring an dthe late fall are the best
seasons for rainbow-trout fishing

Washington, July 19.-Dr. Harvey

chemistry, probably will not be re-
quired by President Taft to resign,
but will be reprimanded, according
to the consensus of opinion of visitors
who talked with Mr.. Taft yesterday
The recommendation of Attorney
General Wickersham that DR.. Wiley
be permitted to resign was barely
touched upon at the cabinet meeting,
but this impression was strengthened
in the minds of the callers at the
White House during the day.

ture, in whose department the trouble

"a HISTORY OF MURDER"
Hepburn and Williams Renew Quarrel
Over COnfederacy-Williams Left
Chamber.

Z over COnI60oracy-W1lI1a Lett
Chamber.
Washington, July 18 The bitter
ness between Senator Hepburn of Ida-
no and Senator Williams of Mississ-
ippi on the subject of the Confederacy
broke out anew in the senate. Hey
burn objected to taking up a bill ap-
propriating 100000 for a Confeder-
ate monument in Vicksburg, MILL
tary Park, but Williams won it's con-
sideration by a vote of 29 to 10.
The Vieksburg <park commission
and the state military affairs have ap-
proved the measure.
Williams said it was desired to have
the monument complete>for the semi
centennial of the blue and the Gray"
reunion at Vicksburg in 1918.
Senators Cummins of Iowa and
Works of California argued its pas
sage as proper recognition of the
men who exhibited great bravery in
the cause they believed to be right.
Hepburn again attacked the prin-
ciple of federal recognition of the
Confederate acts. Williams abruptly
left the chamber when Hepburn be-
gan to speak.
Hepburn declared cit was intoler-
able" that the deeds of the Confeder-.
ate armies should be recited in the
laws that call upon the public treas
ury for contribution
He characterized the history of the
war between the states as ga history
of murder"
He attacked the newspapers of the
country declaring many of them dis
loyal and "delimped to express dis.
loyalty"
He said that he was so misrepr-
sented that he was receiving scores
of anonymous letters from Cow
ards threatening him with personal
violence because of his opposition to
the use of government funds to rec
ognize confederate service.

Railway is authority for the statement
that, if pending negotiations are con-
cluded, the Chesapeake & Ohio and the
Seaboard Air Line will ecure d 999-

The cost of building the connecting
link between the southern terminus
of the Chesapeake & Ohio at Elkhorn,

CARRY REFUSE
OUT TO SEA

Walter Macfarlane, of the Libby,
Mcneil & Libby canning factory at
Ahuimanu, on the windward side of
the island, advised the Board of
Health yesterday afternoon that 121
tins of condemned pineapple, which
had been dumped at sea, had been
picked up along the beach but that
no other refuse has been cast up.
The method of disposing of the
malodorous refuse from the canning
factory by carrying it to sea in scows
and dumping it where the off-shore
currents will carry it away, seems to
have solved a very vexing problem.
The refuse material was at first
dumped into the tide water, and was
promptly thrown back on the shore
by the waves, where it produced an
intolerable stencil. Then it was
hauled out to an isolated point and
spread out and covered with lime and
earth, but the results were far from
satisfactory.
