Wood, chief of the A-shevllle fire department, is congratulating the people of the city because of the fact that there have as yet been no fires during the holidays. There has only betn one call, and that proved to be a raise alarm at box 48, Saturday night, mis is in sp:te of trie considerable ex plosion of fireworks that went on In many of the back lots all over the city. Mr. Wood attributes that absence of fires to the careful waste inspection in the first place and to the care that the people are beginning to exercise in the matter of preventing fires. He mis noticed that the practice of keep ing the roofs and gutters clear of leaves is increasing and Is already having Us effect. This care, he said, will do more good than any amount of protection that the city could provide. In time it might place this county on an equal footing with some of the European countries In the number of fires that occur. .The difference is caused sim ply by the care ot the householders, as the protection In this country is better than In most of the European countries. Mr. Wood said that since January 1 to date there have only been 5 real fires. A little after the first of the year the fire department's equipment is to be improved by the installation of motor trucks, and Dell Ross of the drpartmen is now in Cincinnati where the trucks are manufactured, learning how to work them. He will accom pany the trucks to AsheUUe. Accord ing to the contract the trucks were to be delivered 90 working days after October 1. Counting holidays and Sundays they should be shipped by January 20. W!iiljlHil!l!l!i means more than a fat baby. It means laying the foundation of a strong, sturdy constitution.

The fruit growers of western North Carollnn have opened to them an op portunity of which they will doubtless take advantage. This comes In the shape of an arrangement made by the board of trade of this city whereby applies of this section will be dis played in a window on Broadway, New Tork city. The board does not care to have It known just how the arrange ment has been perfected but any ap ples of Western North Carolina that re considered up to the mark will be used. Letters have been written to some I of the leading apple growers In this I .'ml other counties asking them to I send boxes of the best apples they I have and these will be sent to New York. There Is an abundance of fine apples In most of the western counties and it Is expected that there will be plenty to pick from and that a display can be made up that the section will not be ashamed of. Among those who have been noti fied, besides those In this country, are the commercial orchard men of Haywood and two or three growers In Swain county. r 1 -rrrr , 7Rls monogram on ; radiator stands fir all jvu cat ask in a matcrsac CHALMERS 30 TORPEDO $1500 FULLY EQUIPPED Including Chalmers Self Starter There are torpedo and torpedos, but here Is one that will stand the . wear and tear and give satisfactory service for a long period.

Policeman Ken drlck and Deputy George Allen went to Earl yesterday and arrested three negroes. Plato Jennings, Henry Whlsi nant and the letter's young son were brought here and placed in Jail. The young Whlsnant negro says his father and Plato Jennings are the ones who asraulted William Kendrlck with stones and set fire to his barn. It seems that Mr. Kendrlck went home from his neighbor's house, John Arnold, and after he got there he re membered that he had not fed his cow, whereupon he went to the barn and started to climb into the loft. The negroes pushed him to the ground and he went to the house to get his gun. When he came back to the bam they had set tire to 1; and he Imme diately began taking his stock out of the stables. As the negroes were de parting they fired two shots st him and he returned the Are, but none of the shots took effect. Mr. Kendrlck got all of his stock out of the barn and fled to Mr. Arnold's to get assistance. The negroes were given a hearing before Squire John Miller Roberta at Patterson Spring, and bound over to court' When dissatisfied try our : Special Blend Coffee, 35c per lb and you will have pleasant dreams Sawyer Kindling IOjc per box : fix Phonu N. 1S00.
