PRESIDENT AND A COMPANION CAME SO NEAR HEADING OFF THE BEAR AS TO GET A SIGHT OF HIM. femedes, Miss., Nov. 15. The presi dent put in a hard day's hunting today, but without result. Another bear was brought into camip last night. It was a mere cub and was worried to death by the dogs. This morning the pack started out on a fresh trail. They split soon after starting and the best half of the pack struck off down the Little Sunflower. It has no been heard from since. Mr. Foote, who was with President Roosevelt, said he thought he knew where the bear was heading for and he and the president made a detour to head him off. Foote's judgment was excellent but they were not quick enough. When the president and Foote arrived at the indicated spot they had the disappointment of seeing the pack cross their path thirty feet ahead, proving that the bear was not far ahead. The president pushed into the tangle after the bear and he espied the dogs fighting bruin, but they could not hold him at bay. The president dropped into camp for lunch, and started out with Foote again, with a mere handful of dogs.

Three shots were fired at 'the king of Belgium this morn ing as he was proceeding to the cathedral to attend the Te Deum in memory of the late Queen Henrietta. No one was hurt. The man who fired the shots is an Italian. He stood in (front of the Bank of Brussels, on the Rue Royale. The other chambers in the revolver were 'blank, so tit ie presumed that those fired were equally harmless. The man was immediately arrested, and the po lice had some difficulty in rescuing him ifrom the hands of the crowd. He gave the name of Robino. The royal cortege consisted of several carriages, besides that of the king, containing the count and countess of Flanders, Prince and Princess Albert of Flanders, the Princess Clementine and the aides-de-camp and ladies of honor. A fuller investigation satisfied the police that Robino really fired a ball cartridge, the bullet of which smashed the window of Comte d' Eoultremont's carriage and grazed the grand mar shal's face. When rescued from the mob, Robino was' placed in a cab and infuriated crowds of people immediately . sur rounded it and attacked the vehicle with knives and sticks. The police had great difficulty in forcing a way to the police station through the crowd, which shouted alternately "kill him," and "long live the king. The cab was badly hacked writh knives. A search of the prisoner revealed a pack age of ball cartridges. It is reported that Robino had been heard to express anarchistic opinions, and it was also said that he came t Brussels from London expressly to kill King Leopold and went to the cathe dral today for this purpose, . but re frained from shooting at the. king for fear, ,ot fitting soldiers . wh-Sstood be tween him and his majesty. Rofoino .is also reported to have said he was employed in the Italian secret service in London, and that he came to Brus sels a fortnight ago with the intention of assassinating Kdng Leopold. The news of the outrage spread rapidly throughout the city and the greatest excitement prevailed. The people thronged the streets, eagerly discussing the attempt on the life of the king, and large crowds gathered in front of the various bulletin boards. The newspapers issued frequent edi tions, and these were eagerly bough:. General abhorence was expressed by the people at the apparently deliberate attempt to assassinate the sovereign. King Leopold appeared to be quite unmoved by the attempt of Robino to kill him. After luncheon at the pal ace, his majesty entered a motor and proceeded to the tion, where he boarded for Groenendael.

Mitchell put in today another try ing day on the stand before the strfke, commission. Early in the session he was rigidly cross-examined by Lawyer Wilcox of the Delaware & Hudson com pany and in the latter part he was turned over to the tender mercies of ex-Attorney General Waynes McVeigh, tout try as they would, neither of them succeeded in wringing from Mitchell one admission damaging to the side of the miners. In fact, after considerable effort on McVeigh's part to corner Mitchell, he complimented Mitchell on the "adroit" manner in which Mitchell slipped around his interrogatory, and once in parrying an interruption by counsel for the miners, said he thought Mitchell "an admiraible witness." (This afternoon's session was the live liest yet and was illumined by flashes of humor on the part of both McVeigh and Mitchell that kept everyone in a good humor. A jfew of the jokes were at the expense of Mitchell, but on sev eral occasions Mitchell turned the Joke on McVeigh. x During it all Mitchell was never caught off his guard. The rancor in some of the questions asked as well as in some of the answers given was al most lost sight of in the play of wit and repartee. In the course of the ex amination Mitchell gave his reasons for advocating an eight hour day, and got into a controversy with McVeigh as to who- WfT&gftmsible for the?-Increased price of coal placed on the poor. Mitch ell acquitted himself well. Later Mc Veigh ineffectually tried to get Mitchell to admit that a (prosperous mining town indicated the prosperity of the mine workers residing there. Mitchell gave some strong reasons why an arm ed coal and iron police should not be permitted in the coal fields. It looks as if Mitchell will be on the stand the greater part of next week Special Verine Will Be Selected From Outside Asheville and Fairview Toweships. In Superior court yesterday a number of oases were disposed of. In the case of state against W. J. Greer, charged with an assault nnon a cnarir v. judgment of the court was that the de fendant pay the doctor's bill and a fine K)f $50. Frank Brown, colored, was charged with an assault with a, knife upon one Alice Pritchard. Spears Raynolds, counsel for the defendant, took the po sition before the jury that the wound inflicted upon the prosecuting witness was an accidental one and was re ceived in play. The solicitor took the position that the accident theory was a "fake" and that the evidence showed that the defendant was guilty of a bru- assault. Verdict, not sniil'tv.

More im portant than the endorsement of Con gressman Cannon for speaker was the yvsiLive lassurance given at a meeting of the Wisconsin conerressiona.1 rtplft- gation today that it was the intention of Roosevelt to call a speciai session of congress iate in March to revise the tariff.

The name of the man who attempted to kill King Leo pold today is Gerone Rubino. He was perfectly cool during his examination hefore a magistrate. He said he came from London, where he was engaged' to watch anarchists iby the Italian government. It was discovered that he was furnishing information to the anarchists and he was dismissed. Thereupon he came to Brussels, re solved to strike a blow for the anarch ists and kill the king. He said he had SWANNANOA LAUNDRY BOUGHT BY MR.

Gaines, Sr., Mr. De Klyn and Mr. Dunham, who have been spending some time at Asheville and at Montreat, left the latter place b riday afternoon returning to their home in New York. Mr. Huyler owns quite an extensive tract of land adjoining Montreat which is strictly preserved; and this fact enabled the party to enjoy a little shooting. Mr. Gaines proved the crack shot of the party, killing a considerable bag of quail. His crowning exploit was the killing of a large iwild gobbler. ONE OF THE NORTH CAP.Or.TVA BOY.S INJURED UNIVERSITY OR1 TENNESSEE DEFEATS UNIVER SITY OF MISSISSIPPI. Princeton, Nov. 15. Yale defeated Princeton, 12 to 6, today. The contest was the ho test of the season. "Roth sides stubbornly contested every inch of ground. Yale's victory was due to superior physical condition. Princeton and Yale met on the old Nassau field in their annual football game. No football contest of the year is fraught with so great inter ests. This fact was made apparent early yesterday, when the advance guards of graduates and friends of both teams began arriving. This transient traffic continued until the last tram at night and began again on the first train this morniner. The crowds began to enter the grounds as early as 12 o'clock. Half an hour before the timA to bearin there was scarcely a vacant seaVin the huge ampitheatre. The weather was ideal for the onlookers, but a trifle too warm for the players. At 2 o'clock the Yale team trotted into the field. Three minutes later the Princeton eleven came on, headed by Jim Robinson, carrying a pet tiger in a casre. Princeton won the toss and chose to defend the south goal, and at 2:15 o'clock the game hegan. Bowman kicked off for Yale. After five minutes of play Yale fumbled and Pearson, getting the ball for Princeton, carried, it 15 yards to Yale's 35-yarci line. Dewitt dropped immediately and made a beautiful try for a goal from field, missing by less than five feet. Dewitt kicked a goal from the 25-yard line. Princeton 5; Yale 0. The game progressed from this point with little advantage for either side.- (Continued on page four) WE ARE PUSHING BARGAINS And if you are wanting to purchase, it will pay you to see us before buying from any one else.
