HENDERSONVILLE VISITOR
FIGURES IN ESCAPADE.
Is Under Arrest fin California Follow
ing Visit to HendersOnviTIe i'm 1911.

By reason of Hendersonvil1e'S popu-
larity as summer resort it is now
enjoying a little limelight in an un-
eleVating escapade in which visitor
to this city in 1911 is said to have
been a principal.
According to press dispatches. Mrs.
DIR. Jefferson w. Reams, wife of a
Spartanburg pharmacist in 1911; after
visiting in Hendersonville has had a
rowing and inglorious career, resulting
in her arrest in San Francisco, CAL, on
the charge of adultery, it being alleg-
ed that she left these parts with her
little son and one ]. Rogers McCaslan,
who it is believed is in California, al
though Mrs. Reams who goes under
the name of Mrs. Rogers claims not.
Warrants were issued in Spartan
burg for the arrest of the couple.
The following press dispatch will be
of interest in this connection:
DR.. Reams and family lived in the
same boarding house at which McCas-
Ian resided. Taking her little son,
Orlando, Mrs. Reams went to Hender-
sonville, N. c., in the summer Of 1911
for visit. Tt has since been learned
that she took $4,000 in cash with her.
McCaslan went to Hendersonyille at
the same time. They vanished, but
were traced to Asheville. The trail
was then lost until June, 1912, when
word was received that they were in
Norcross, Ga. When efforts were
made, however, to apprehend the
couple, they again departed.
DIR. Reams was grief-stricizsn at the
less cf his son and has employed de-
tec,ives and adopted other means
suggested in an effort to recover the
child

TWO BOYS SHOT
ACCIDENTALLY

While carelessly playing with pis-
tol Sunday afternoon in the Tuxedo
section, two boys about thirteen years
old were accidentally shot.
Unless complications set in the
wounds will not likely prove serious.
DIR. A B. Drafts and DR.. j. Frank
Crawford attended the young men and
addressed the wounds. The Capps
boy who was holding the gun, suffered
a shot wound in one hand and the
same shot glazed the left side of the
son of j. L. Pace.
Although the wounds we're not con-
sidered dangerous by the physicians
they were quite painful and the young
sters were very much frightened over
the accident.

KISSED AND 'MADE UP.
Speaker Clark and Secretary Bryan
"Bury the Hatchet" for Benefit Of
the Administration.

Speaker Clark and Secretary Bryan
met at a private luncheon in Washing
ton, shook hands and issued public
statements declaring they had buried
the hatchet and put the personalities
of the Baltimore convention with the
bygones.. The luncheon was arranged
by Theodore A. Bell, chairman of the
California delegation supporting
Speaker Clark at Baltimore, and was
given by Ira E. Bennett, editor of the
Washington Post.
Secretary Bryan issued the follow
ing statement
''My meeting with Mr.. Clark has
served to clear up misunderstand-
ing as to my exact position toward
him at the Baltimore convention. l
have tried to make it clear to Mr..
Clark that I have always regarded
and now regard him as a clean, pro-
gressive Democrt. If my language
at Baltimore created any impression
that 1 was charging Mr.. Clark with
being in sympathy with any of the
reactionary forces, l am glad of the
opportunity to clear any such miscon-
ception of my words and acts, for l
did not intend to reflect upon either
the personal or political integrity OF
the Speaker. 1t is my earnest wish
that there may be cordial cooperation
between the State Department and the
Speaker in carrying out the policies
of the administration"
Then Speaker Clark made public
the following:
ct is beyond the power of Colonel
Bryan or any one else to correct the
injustice that was done to me at Bal
timore. The loss of the presidential
was small thing as COM
pared to the injury done to my repu-
tation in the eyes of the world. But
now that Colonel Bryan, in his public
statement, has done what he can to-
remove the injurious impressions that
we're created by his Baltimore speeches
1 feel that we can all the better CO.
operate for the good of the admins
tration. l can only repeat what have
declared, time and time again,
that all person or selfish considera-
lions must give way to the duty that all
Democrats owe to our party and to our

ASHEVILLE HAS STRIKE
MOtOrmen and Conductors of City
Strike For Higher Wages and The
Street Car Company Imports Strike
breakers, Causing Trouble.


Asheville is experiencing the first
street car strike in it's history and in
fact the first strike of any kind with
such serious proportions.
On Saturday the street car conduc-
tors and motormen deserted their cars
after rolling them into the barns about
IL o'clock. The Office force of the
care company operated the cars on a
partial schedule.
About a score of strikebreakers ar
rived in Asheville Sunday afternoon
from northern cities, but they found
things unpleasant and needed advice
from Mayor Rankin and departed
hence without delay. A mob of about
1000 people gathered around the hotel
where the strikebreakers we're quar-
tered and threatened to do them in
fury, serious consequences being avert
ed only by the timely action of the po-
lice force.
No cars were run on Monday and
Tuesday, the schedule being resumed
on Wednesday after number of strike
breakers arrived and were barricaded
at the car barns. The street car COM
pany called upon the city and county
authorities for protection from viol-
ence. Upon going to press nothing
had been heard of the activities of
Wednesday more than it was the in
tentiOn of the company to operate cars.
The street car men struck for higher
wages ranging from 81 to % cents an
hour instead of the old rates Of 1S to
81 cents per hour.
