Main St D The meeting of the Greater West ern North Carolifta- association which was to have been he'd next Wednes day morning has been postponed un til Thursday morning, at noon, when the members of the organisation will gather at the room of the association in the Electrical building. Colonel iSandford H . Cohen, the manager of the association, stated yesterday that he will make a detailed report of the work which has been done since last February. Colonel Cohen remarked that the report will show that the past season has been the most suc cessful in the history of this section of the state, estimates showing that thousands of visitors have been at tracted to the cities and towns of the counties which comprise the Greater Western North Carolina association, The report will deal with one feature of the tourist travel which has not heretofore been referred to the class of tourists attracted -to Western North Carolina. It Is stated that the people who have visited the Land ot the Sky during the past season, in the .ma jority of instances have been people with money to spend. That such it the case, the Teport will show, is evi denced by the fact that boarding houses and hotels which cater to the best class of trade have entertained record breaking crowds. While the cheap hotels and boarding houses have experienced good "business, it Is stated, the proprietors of the places which do not offer cheap rates are greatly pleased with the result of the advertising campaigns which have been waged In behalf of Western North Carolina. The report will give features deal ing with the number , ot visitor to this section of the state who have purchased property here and who have been so well pleased with the Land of the Sky that they have de cided to make their homes in this section of North Carolina, The people who have visited here have come from various states. While colonist movements have been popular, rec ords compiled from the registers of the various hotels and boarding houses show that the visitors have been at tracted from many states of the coun try. More people from Texas, Louis jana, Ohio and the states of the mid dle west have come to Western CarO' Una during the past summer than during any previous season. Plans for the continuation of the worit during the remainder of the Calendar year will -be mauo at Thurs day's meeting, messages whloh have been received from all ot the counties comprising the institution Indicating that the members are-desirous ot con tlnulng the work and" are anxious that .the organisation shall carry out Its plane for advertising this section of the state as a winter resort.

LowenbeinrRutenberg Co. 16 PATTON AVENUE mportant Ruling Is Made by Judge Frank Carter In Superior Courts Much Trouble Caused Recently. No private detective has the right to carry concealed weapons In the state of North Carolina. This Is the opinion of Judge Frank Carter. and it was delivered In plain words, ' at the afternoon session of Superior court, yesterday. "Now, If this opinion of the court does not coincide with the views ot any private detective he can have a quick chance to test the law In the Supreme court of North Carolina," said Judge Carter. The court made It plain that the ruling would not only apply to resi dent private detectives but also to transients, Recently private detectives, especially negroes, have been causing considerable trouble to the authorities and it Is this practice that the court hopes to break up. A special venire of 100 citUens of Buncombe county was drawn yester day from whieh a Jury of twelve men is to be selected to try A. M. West, the rural mall carrier, who Is charged with having shot down and killed Dr. W. J. donts In the streets of Alexander several weeks ago. The defendant was recently Indicted by the September term of the grand jury charged with the offense. the trial ot West Is set for hearing commencing jsxt Saturday morning, September IT, in Superior court. Judge Frank Carter presiding. Sheriff Williams and hta deputies Will commence at once the work of serving summons upon the veniremen from which the trial Jury Is to be formed. The venire was dwn by County Register ot Deeds J. J, Maekis In open court and in the presence of Judge Carter, Sheriff Williams Solid tor Reynolds and other officers ot the court. Attorneys on both sides were slso present, as was the defendant As each possible Juror's name was called it was placed upon a slip Of paper and duly recorded. West sat through the entire pro ceedings motionless, save for an occa. alonal remark to members ot his coun sel. The mall carrier has been In the county Jail sines a short while after the killing of Dr. Clonts took place, Many Lawyers Employed. A brilliant 'array of legal counsel has been employed to both defend and prosecute the defendant. Solid tor Reynolds will be assisted By Judgo J. D. Murphy, Mark W. Brown and Wells A Swain, while ths Interests of the defendant will be looked after by the law Arm of Martin, Rollins ft Wright, Judge Thomae A. Jones and Judge Phil C, Cocke. A stubborn legal battle Is promised and the case will probably drag on for several days In Superior court, s it Is understood that both sides will havs number of witnesses to In troduce. The plea of the defendant l "ot yet known. At a preliminary hearing held before a justice of the peace a few days after the killing, when only state's witnesses were Introduced, self-defence was strongly hinted at In the cross-examination of witnesses by the attorneys for the defense. Both Men Popular. West, who to a man of family, has never made a statement for publica tion elnee the afternoon of the homi cide, Both the defendant and the deceased had many friends in ths section In which they lived and great Interest has been manifested In the case from the vsry start. . Yesterday afternoon several deft.i dants were sentenced by Judee Car ter, these having been convicted by juris during the rP.st week of the criminal term. Several motions were made In .the pending cases snd West listened with ineterst to the legal points which were argued by the attorneys Interested in the several eases at Issue. Defendant Reeks Mercy, Zeke Austin, a white man whose reputation in the community In which he resides Is not the very best ac cording to the court, waa given a sentence of eighteen months on the roads, having been convicted In one of a dozen cases which were pending gainst him In Superior court At the explrstion of the eighteen months Austin Is. to be banished from the state forever more If he does no care to have the old cases brought up against him attain. This wae the decision of Judge Car ter after he had heard a la for clemency made personally by Austin before the bar. The defendant de dared that he would leave North Carolina last night If permitted to do so, but Judge Carter did not think that the ends of Justice would be met by this procedure, hence the road pntenc. The defendant has figured In criminal cases a number of times. He comes from the Beaverdam sec tion of the county. Case DUpoeed Of. The following cases were disposed of yesterday In Superior court: Edward Baldwin, charged with as sault with a deadly weapon; three months' sentence1. George Matthews, negro, charged with attempted .criminal assault; plead guilty to simple assault Arthur Booker, charged with 'as sault with a deadly weapon; plead: guilty. Ray Westmoreland, carrying con-j cealed weapon: plead guilty and taxed with the cost Fred Fowler, assault with a deadly weapon; guilty. The second week of the criminal term of Superior court commences to morrow morning at 10 o'clock. ft I t : ( J. ' If 01 ' NEW YORK NEWSPAPER MAN IS IN ASHEVILLE Mr. and Mrs. Charles p.

An amusing story Is going the rounds in Fleet street about an editor who, to the surprise of those under him, has Just accepted a large batch of contributions. , The manuscripts are not of any re markable brilliance; Indeed, In the or dinary way they would nearly all have been returned to the senders with the usual formula announcing that the editor regretted that he waa unable to make use of them. The explanation of this apparent eccentricity on the part of the'edltor Is that the other evening he took the manuscripts home in his bag to read at leisure. Between the office and the station he stopped to buy a bottle of whiskey which he put in the bag beside the manuscripts. In the train the bag got an nu noticed bang, and when he arrived home he was horrified to find the bottle broken and the manuscripts smelling strongly of whiskey. Now, that editor has i great repu tation for dignity and sobriety, and well, there you are! Pearson's Week Rev. E.
