Asheville, (Special).-It has been
reported here that Bob Peterson, who
is wanted in connection with the kill
ing, and wounding of some men in
Yancey county, more than a year ago,
has been c~apturned in New Mexico, and
will be brought back to North Carolina
The Peterson brothers, Bob, Zeb-and
Parm, are accused of killing a white
man and injuring some negroes. 1t
is said that an agent for a construc-
ton company had been in Yancey
hiring negroes to work on a road.
and that one of the Peterson brothers
had some trouble with one of the ne
groes; that they had a warrent issue
for the negro and were sent, b e
selves, to arrest him. Trouble fol-
lowed, one being killed and several
receiving severe wounds. The affair
created a great deal of interest in this
section of the State at the time. Soon
after the shooting Eeb Peterson sur
rendered and the case removed to the
Madison county court, where he is to
be tried at the present criminal ses-
sion.

Been In A Long Time.

Salisbury. (Special.9-It is said that
Postmaster James H. Ramsey, of Sal
isbury, enjoys a distinction not attain
ed by any other postmaster in the
South, or perhaps in the United States,
by reason of the fact that he has serv-
ed under nine different presidents. He
first began as postmaster at South
River, Rowan county, under President
Hayes, and since that time has served
under every president as postmaster
at Salisbury, to which place he remov-
ed when Garfield was president. He
is universally liked and is one of the
most efficient postmasters in the en-
tire service.

Secretary Bryan had toNsay about ten
ure of Office in his first talk with Off
Gals and not to the secretary himself.
This was made plain by Mr.. Bryan
today when it was suggested that his
words might be construed to mean
that he did not e~xpectsto remain long
in the cabinet. He explained that the
mention of his own tenure was merely
a joking reference to the fact that his
appointment had not then been con-
frmed by the Senate.

LATTICE"
LATEST
SKIRT EVER
THE APPEAL MAN DISCOVERS
SOME" DRESS WHICH DIS
PLAYS A FAIR DAMSEL

Out with the Diaphanous-On
with the Lattice.
During a trip through the Capitol
this morning the Appeal Saunterer
was brought face to face with the
very latest in the line OF "undress"
skirts.
The fair damsel was visitor from
Los Angeles and member of an au-
to party who were making applica-
ton for visitors cards to the State
Prison, and that she was just about
the newest thing that exists in the
art tonsorial that has struck these
parts IN some moons, is the candid
opinion of the Appeal man. And he
Is also here to assert that the Young
lady had every reason to be allowed
this new creation in the line of
skirts what amt" She knew how
to wear it as well as display all there
was to display-and that was some
at that
The writer would call it a "lattic-
ed skirt" and unlike its earlier pre-
decessors it surely left nothing, pos
itively nothing to the imagination,
and was the most daring and surely
the newest, of any of the undressed
styles yet displayed in Carson.
The slit in this new lattice skirt"
begins at the bottom and runs up
ward with such rapidity that it can
not possibly be stopped below the
knee, while across the chasm ribbons
are strung in a criss-cross way that
makes the lattice effect.
