The negroes of Asheville and, .incidentally,' no few ignorant and superstitious wnlie jwo ple, have been greatly disturbed dur ing tne past kw naj uvtr iu? spread rumor started some how and some place to the effect that James j KUCKer, tne nejsru rajiioi orniicu on August 20th, was not dead; that he still lives though still unconscious and that he is now. according to one report, in a local undertaking estab lishment and to another rumor in a local hospital. The negroes say that Rucker's heart still beata and that great beads of perspiration stand out on his forehead. The rumor has gained such headway among the ne groes that many have become badly frixhteneJ. : Negro - servants almost daily relate and reiterate these alleged facts to their empyers the wnae they tremble with fear. Of course there Is nothing whatever to the story, but the negroes cannot accept the truth. They are scared and nothing apparently will convince them of their error In believing that Rucker still lives. The negroes, many of them, in the emnlov df the railroad, have taken the story that Rucker is yet alive at truth and the report Is con stantly gaining ground. It is' said that many negroes have Deeome so wrough up over the story that they will not dare nass the jail or go near the undertaking establishment. The committee in charge or tne orohlbitlon end of the approaching liquor fight here on October 8th, is arranging to bring some prominent prohibition speakers here during the campaign. It is understood that among those who will be heard here will be former Senator Carmack, of Tennessee; Governor Glenn; Rev. Dr. Stewart, the prominent evangelist, and Mr. Hamm, also a well-known prohi bition speaker. The campaign prom ises to l:e interesting throughout with an exciting close. Both sides. It Is understood, will have consider able money to spend, for legitimate nurnoses during the campaign. The saloon advocates, while apparently in- unive, c m-"" are working very quietly and saying little. It is said that t.tey will have no open organization; that their work will be of the "individual effort" brand and that they expect this meth od of campaign to have the desired effect.
