Hotel Promoters Safdft0 Have Passed
Through HendersOnYiIIe: Isle of
Pines Man Interested.
AT Depot

Rumors are floating around with
reference to the erection of a big tour
list hotel somewhere in Western North
Carolina.
A party of about eighteen men were
seen passing through Hendersonville
last week en- route to the mountain
country up the Toxaway line. While
no authoritative statement was given
out it is said that they were hotel men
on the way to Pisgah Forest to look
over some of the property belonging
to the Biltmore estate but which the
government has contracted to purchase
and convert into a health, pleasure
and recreation park.
News ome from Asheville to the
effect that a prospective investor from
the Isle of Pines is seeking PROPOSE

Efforts Made to Collect and Ship An
other Car Load to ThOmasville.
The Baptist Orphans Home at
Thomasville has requested that one
day about Thanksgiving be set apart
as Orphans workday, and that every
one be asked to donate n days sal
airy to the support of the home.
This will be done by a great many
people of Henderson county, and q
number of those who can not give
money have expressed a desire to con-
tribute produce of different kinds,
and such gifts will be received on Fri
day and Saturday of this week and
Monday and Tuesday of next week.
Any desiring to bring loads of produce
to Hendersonville to be shipped to the
Home are asked to bring them in on
Tuesday of next week, if they "a do
so, and load the produce directly into
a car for shipment.
Pastor Geo. F. Wright, of the East
Hendersonville Baptist church, has
arranged for receiving and shipping
the produce, and those bringing their
| loads in before Tuesday will leave it
with Mr.. Bryson, at the the Cottage
| Home hotel, near the depot, who will
take care of it. \
Now as to what to bring in. That
big load of corn, and those potatoes,
sweet and Irish, canned goods, wheat,
oats, rye, salt meat, live hogs, eggs,
chickens, lard, butter, cloth, wearab1e
clothes, molasses in cans, blankets,
sheets, quilts, home made socks and
stockings, in fact anything used at
home can be used at the Orphans
Home, and will be thankfully received
Cash offerings may also be included
and they will be sent post haste.
Every Baptist in the country is re-
quested to bring in something to go
into this car, and people of other de-
nominations are invited to contribute
also, as there are children of all de-
nominations cared for by the home
People are advised to read 1 John
3:17, and act IN the direction of the
love of God within them.

ATTACKS THE
CONDITION OF:
HOP FIELDS
Makes Public Report Of Investigators
Made During the Riots
At Wheatlands

Washington, Feb. 10.-A report on
the condition existing in the Califor-
MIA hop fields at the time of the IA
tai riot at Wheatlands, was made
public today by Chairman Frank P.
Walsh, of the federal commission on,
Industrial relations.
The report submitted to the COM
mission by Carleton H. Parker, sec
rotary of the California immigration
commission, who was regarded as a
special investigator, bitterly attacked
conditions in the hop fields, setting
forth that wages and living condi-
lions there contribute to the strength
of the Industrial Workers of the
World, and their revolutionary doc
trines.
Chairman Walsh announced that
searching examination of sanitation
and wages in camps of migratory Ia
borers will be made by the commits
sion to find out II conditions disclosed
in the hop fields exist to any extent
in other places.
After describing the riot in which
four we're killed, the commissioners
investator said:
Without doubt the propaganda
which the Industrial Workers Of the
World has actually adopted for the
| California seasonal worker is In law
criminal conspiracy. But the i'm
| portant fact is that 1t will be carried
| out whether unlawful or not. The
only comment Of I. w. w. leaders
Is that they are glad 1t is criminal
conspiracy. They have volunteered
| a cure. 1t Is to clean up housing and
| wage conditions of the seasonal work
ers. The shrewdest I. w. W. lead
ers found, said, We can't agitate In
the country unless things are rottet
enough to bring the crowd along.
There Is without doubt a definite
and increasing danger in California II
this propagandizing of the I. w. w

The Parable Of the

these cells were practically dead.
Certain others we're working quietly,

However after all such adjustments
had been made the battery was still
unsatisfactory. Its operation was
weak, irregular, uncertain, and Who'll
ly unsuited to the electrolysis re-
quired by the work in progress. At
length, having become convinced that
the fault was a radical one, that some
defect was present which no ordin-
airy patching up process would rem

subjected each cell to an individual
examination. One after another pass

in measurably perfect condition un-

the ninth was seriously at fault. The
cell was set aside, and the remain
ing three were tested; all of these
were good. Finally then, the inef-
ficiency Of the battery was chargeable
to that one unit, number nine; and
this, as remembered, had been
among the worst of the abnormally
active cells. The eleven good units
were connected up; and from the
battery thus assembled there issued

A Laboratory Incident, BY Or J

the course of certain laboratory
investigations had need Of a pri-
mary electric current of considerable

voltaic battery consisting Of a dozen
cells of simple type. He followed the
usual procedure, but, as l discovered
later. gave inadequate attention to
the details--those seeming trifes that
make or mar perfection.
Each cell consisted of a cylindrical

we're immersed a pair of plates, one
of carbon, the other of zinc. The
cells were connected in series SO that
the strength of the battery was the
sum of the power developed by the
twelve individual units. The working
efficiency, or available and disable
strength, was the total force devel-
oped less the resistance opposed by
the cells themselves. The condition
is comparable to that Of income IN
the case of am individual or a COM
pany; the gross income includes all
receipts from which must be sub
tracted all costs II we would deter
mine the net nome or actual profit.
Or, by another smile, the condition
presented by this battery was like
that of a mechanical engine, the
available efficiency OF which is the

feet Of friction and all other losses

Of the battery; its working efficiency
