There are seven men in Asheville today who may not get drunk again for a year and one who must refrain from drinking to excess (or a period of six months. Of course they can get drunk but if they do it means that they will have to serve terms of 30 days each on the county roads, from which there will be no appeal except to the governor. At present they are at liberty, but if either is arrested within the period named for being drunk there will be no trial. Com mitments have already been prepared and they will be speedily dispatched to one of the convict camps. Judge Adams has been trying for some time to stamp out so much drunkenness in the city by harsh methods but their effectiveness has not been fully demonstrated. This morning's proceeding was a new one. The men were found guilty of being drunk in the city, and Judge Adams entered judgments of 30 days each in their cases and told them that If they would take the pledge the execution of the judgments would be suspended until they are arraigned again on a similar charge. Manly Gudger, Hor ace Lamare, Rutledge Clayton, Ed Keith, Floyd James, John Sherrill and Fred King took the pledge for a year and Jim Alexander took it for six months. , These men were considered by the court to have aggravated cases, and there were a few other defendants be fore him today on the charge of being drunk who were not so severely dealt with. Charles Gaither was given 10 days in Jail and taxed with the cost for such an offense, while Chas. Lind sey, Ephriam Clayton, Dock Atkins, Charles Gaither and M. W. Robinson were fined J 1 0 and the costs. The case charging Ed. Fttzpatrick with being drunk was continued until tomorrow. Pearl Hrown wan found guilty of be ing drunk and disorderly and prayer for judgment was continued until March 24. There were two retailing cases on Why Didn't Someone Think of It Before?

EUGENE WAY Death of Well Known Aslwvlllo At torney Occurs after Very Uriel' Illness. After a short illness, Eugene Way, a well known attorney of this city died last night at ' 9 o'clock at hie home in Grace. The cause of hi? death was pneumonia and he had been ill only four or five days. The death came us a great surprise to the frlne Is and acquaintances of Mr. Way, who NORC GRANTED E T01SJ1 SMITH Decree Obtained in Richmond, ' Following Legal Sepa People in Asheville will not be sur-' prised to.learn that recently Mrs. Har riet H. Snfith, formerly of this city, has received a decree of divorce at Rich mond from her husband, George G. Smith. The domestic troubles of Mrs. and Mrs. Smith had been almost common knowledge for many months, and their friends knew long ago that Mrs.. Smith had sued for divorce. The couple had legally separated as early as April 9, 1912; and even before that time it began to be rumored that Mr. Smith was to marry an Asheville girl when Mrs. Smith hnil secured her decree. f . The home in Asheville is now held in trust for Mrs. Smith. Shortly' after Mr. and Mrs. Smith separated,-she ex hibited her. bill of equity in the Su preme court of the District of Colum bia: against Mr. Smith, and to quiet this suit Mr. Snirth transferred the Asheville home and appurtenances to ;i trustee for Mrs. Smith. The articles of conveyance are not uninteresting: In effect it is set forth that whereas divers disputes and un happy differences have arisen between the contracting parties for which rea sons they heretofore separated and are not .now living together and there is no hope of reconciliation; and where as Mrs. Smith ,-hllitted her bill of equity against Mr. Smith in the Su- had seen him on the streets less than reme oollrt , thp District of Colum- a week ago. He contracted a deep j bia, therefore in consideration of these cold, however, and pneumonia devel oped; and it is said there was a corn plication of other diseases. Mr. Way, after trrndimtlng at the state university, had practiced law in Asheville for the past 12 years and for years was one of the' most familiar figures in '.the courts and on the streets. As a criminal lawyer his ability was unquestioned and he was considered a strong attorney In civil affairs, especially in land suits. He was most active in Police court, how ever, and was untiring Jn his efforts in behalf of his clients high and low. So far as is known he never refused to appear for, any one in trouble, and his signing of, bonds kept many a person out of jail. Mr. Way was a hard worker for the democratic party and an espec ially strong supporter of Governor Craig, and in political affairs never showed any signs of quitting in for lorn hopes. He had a keen sense of humor, and many of his original jokes and stories will be hnK remembered. The deceased was the son of the .late Major O. D. Way, and Is surviv ed by a mother, four brothers and three sisters. His brothers are: Dr. J. Howell Way of Waynesvllle. Rev. !

Henry,1 a "clerk In the Glen Rock station of the Asheville post office, who has been down oh the Florida east coast, near Miami, for the past two weeks on his annual vacation, returned Saturday and he reports that he came near being drowned In one of the drainage canals while enjoying hid llUtinr Hff f.lt tntn tha wao from a small craft and went- down tnree times, but he was taken from the water Immediately after the third time and was soon In good shape again. Mr. Henry's experience seems to he more, or lean ihunuu tn him I j cannot remember Just tow he man aged to get into the water In the first piace, unless ne leel asleep and then tumbled overboard. He remembers that he was sitting on a .stool on the little boat and fw.llnir rnthm, .i doubtless due to the languid climate and the care-free, vacation spirit; and the first he remembers after that he under water. He said that he could not swim at all and the boat was - some distance from him before hl nriiiumni m,..- discovered, and then some trouble was experV-oced In getting to him. Mr. ..xn iin-r was some sort of a net in-tae wnthr i.a .,, M i.i of what kind or what It was for. but that he could sometimes help himself "w "rnn? ijr getting footholds In this, and. to tab net he attributes the fact that ha was saved from drown ing. . Mr. Henrv hum nnj T.lauunft - i lection of his trip, however; la con nection with hie vacation trip ha went down there to Inspect aome property he houirht a tm vti avn i i visited It once before and found it all unaer water. Now the water Is not there and he la nlnsaii with ih. i tlon- H expects to plant the place next fall but hasn't, decided yet what ne win cultivate.

Our prices are mod erate, and your shopping, with us is appreciated and in addi tion we render intelligent ser-' vice. - , if I l( t ; K , Peerless-Fashion Store must at once advise the Insurance commissioner and pay a tax of -five per cent of the gross premiums. The second section provides that If the Insurance commissioner receives no tice of the violation of the above pro visions, .he or anyone deputized by him shall visit the persons charged with such violation and have the right to inspect, their books and records; and refusal' to permit inspection is punishable as a criminal action. "The lirst provision is all right," said a gentleman in -discussing the matter today, "you can pay the live per cent tax and still get your insur ance much cheaper outside the South eastern Tariff association. In many cases. The second section, however, would afford my competitors oppor tunity to Inspect my records it openr. a wide channel in this -respect, and the attention of the people ought to be called to It." - COL. COHEN RETURNS From Campaigning for Tourists In Florida M mil Advertising Was Done. Col. Sanford H. Cohen, manager of the Greater WesteYn North -Carolina association, returned this afternoon from Florida, where he has been since the last meeting of the directors of the association. His work down there has been to show the visitors from the north the prospective pleas ures of visiting this section on their return trip to their hemes, and he says that he believes that his work has been most effective. . . His headquarters while In Florida hag been In Jacksonville, but he has visited every city and town in the state that Is at all prominent as a winter resort. - These . cities and towns have been- thoroughly posted with the big advertising sheets and dally advertisements have been car ried In the leading papers of the stntej m i Besides the posters and newspaper advertising Col. Cohen has also dis tributed an enormous amount of lit erature about this section. When he first went down a big consignment of western North Carolina booklets and literature from the hotels was ship ped to Jacksonville. This supply has been several times replenished. Col. Cohen says that the entire state In full of tourists now, although busi ness was dull during the early sea son. Now, he says, things are begin ning to look like old times down there. The weather la rather warm, however, and he feels that the move ment to the north will begin shortly and that this section will get a large share of the returning tourists for both short and extended stays.
