Interesting? developments'. In the . Ceorgo Cathey owe are expected to occur within the next few days, ac ' .cording to a prominent county official. Follow ing the order of Judge. W. P. Harding in Superior court late yester day afternoon, in which he ordered that o'l bondsmen of Cathey be - Jjrniight nto court under sci fa orders to answer as to whether or not Judg nient absolute should be taken In their case. Magistrate T. F. Hunter, a bondsman of Cathey, filed his answer before the court this morning. In the answer the bondsman states that he noticed first by the newspa pers that on December 24 the Su preme court hart aflrmed the Judg ment in the Cathey ca.se and that he at once conferred with Clerk Cathey ,ond Solicitor Swain and was informed by them that a capias for George Cathey could not be issued until a cer tified copy of the Judgment of the Supreme court had been received by the clerk. He states that he was fur ther advised he could surrender Cath ey at any time to the sheriff and be relieved of the ' responsibility. ". He further states that he did deliver (Cathey to the sheriff and was later informed that a new bond had been made. . The Bondsmen. According to the court officials T. F. Hunter and C. C. Greenwood were bondsmen for Cathey for $700 and" both of them surrendered him to the sheriff; that T. F. Hunter, C M. Stev ens and R. D. Pressly were bondsmen for 81,500 and that with theexception of Hunter the others have never In formed the court officials that they were ready to surrender the defend-1 ant. It is presumed by the officials that the other bondsmen thought that It would not be necessary for them to nppear personally and surrender Cathey. An interesting point was settled yesterday afternoon by Judge Hard ing, during the discussion of the case. He stated that during the adjournment of court it was tho sheriff's duty to take all bonds and approve them, but thnt while court is in progress the ilerk of the court must take and ap prove he honds. It is expected that tho other bonds men will tile their answers this after noon before Judge Harding and that some definite action will be taken re garding the matter. Officials state that Georce Cathey has not been ta inted as yet. MASONS BACK FROM GRAND LODGE MEET Dr. B. F. Hall Elected Grand Stewardr Completing Plans For Reunion of Next Week. C. F. AVood. R. E. Currence. A. S. Guerard and Pr. H. F. Hall, represen tatives of Mt. Hermon lodge of Ma song have returned to the city from Raleigh, where for the past several days they have been attending the meetings of the grand lodge.

ABOUT COMPLETED $16,00 Structure May Form Part of Central Highway 16 Other Bridges. Returning from Marshal this morn ing, tunes E. Rector stated that Madi son county will soon have one of the best systems of county bridges in the state. A new $'6,0T)0 steel and rein forced concrete bridge will be com pleted within about 60 days across the French Broad river connecting Mar shall with the highway leading to ward Sandy Mush and Asheville. In addition, 16 other steel bridges have been purchased by the Madison coun ty commissioners and are being erect ed at different points in the county. Like most of the mountain counties, Madison's territory is intersected by many small streams and in times of heavy rains these creeks become un fordable and ordinary bridges not securely moored are often carried away by the torrents. The Marshall bridge Is double track ed and With concrete road surface supported by steel arches on concrete piers. It stands opposite the county court house and connects the roads on either bank at an easy grade. It is believed that this bridge will form a link of the Central highway when that thoroughfare is complete. The original survey led from Asheville to Mars Hill to Marshall, a distance of 34 miles. The route by way of Alex ander and Sandy Much is only 22 miles from Asheville:' another pro posed route would go straight from Alexander to the county line along the old turnpike road. Mr. Rector thinks $3,000 would complete this road from the mouth of Ivy creek to Marshall. But there Is already a good road via Alexander and Sandy Mush with perhaps none of It between Asheville and the Madi son county seat having a grade of over five per cent.

N, Washburn, resign Real People BY ROBERT Mrs. Jordan's Man Gets Mrs. Jobdait Is all that Is left of a woman who has brought eight chil dren Into the world and counts from morning till night by eights and tens and their multiples in doing tho cooking, washing, Ironing and mend ing for the big and little Jordans. But the arithmetic of how to feed tea mouths, shoe twenty feet, eta, was simplified when Bill Jordan put on khaki at the age of thirty-five to fight for King and country, especially for the only bit of beautiful English countryside that he had ever known. The Government generously gave Mrs. Jordan an allowance for herself and each of the eight chil dren and even sent her a part of Bill's pay as a soldier. "I hear that Bill is back," I said to Mrs. Jordan as she passed on an errand through the garden of "the House," the house where I was week ending. "Yes," said Mrs. Jordan sorrowful ly, "he's come back." "Nothing very serious wrong with him, I hope." "No, Isn't so much that I bin thlnkln' on't. There's my Bill a so er an' had to get rheumatiz. Ho didn't oughter ha' got rheumatiz, f'r I was alius goin' on at him about layln' on th' wet grass, an' when he tikes the eight thirty-two f r th' front I eez to him, 'Bill, don't ye go in any wet trenches an don't lay on th grass; no knowin' what Belgium grass is like. You'll happen of rheu matiz if you don't do as I tells ye. "An here he Is back from th 'ors pttal, 'obbling an' erritable like you can't do northin' with him, not from bullits but from the rheumatiz he gets flghtin' th' Germans. Now all he gets is a pension, not by no means so much as th' Army plde me an' th' eight Jest f'r th' use o ulm. I don't want me Bill killed or wounded I'm middltn' fond o' him, fr he's as good a husband as a woman can want when he ain't In liquor, an' he only tikes too much now and agen but he might ha' bin took prls'ner, an' then them Germans 'd ha' bad to keep him steddy me, an' I'd ha' got me full money." When Mrs. Jordan was reminded that the Germans would not have given Bill the meat, tea, vegetables and bread to which he was accus tomed she said: "I'd ha' sent him out a parcel reg'Iar, an even that'd ha' come out cheaper, an' Bill he'd ha seen a bit of furrin parts an come back arter the war. Me an the children was gettln' on so nice. I was beginnln' to turn meself round, an' I'd bought everlastin' o boots fr th' eight an' got th' old ones mended, an' a nice piece of stuff Tr a dress rr meself. I'd got me eye on a beaut'ful carpit, too, an' then Bill comes home uncurabls with rheumatii. He's took so bad he can't even milk th cows up to th' farm. BUI goes on grumblin' a.

Bill forgot his rheumatii all o' five minutes as I tells him wot ole Hale tole me. "When she sees the cows she eez, "Where's y'r pile o water an' cloth to wash 'em with? "What d'ys wanter wash, ma'am? sez he. W'y, you don't milk them cows afore you've washed their udders, do ye? An' Hale he sez, 'I bin a cowman this twenty year an' never heerd o wash in' a cow's teats yet afore I milked her. - "Me Bill's so helpless I gotter wash him an' dress him, too. I ain't yet got over his Jest comln' home from th' front with rheumatiz, but then men never could tike care o' their selves without women. It'd piy th Army to tike a few sensible women out with 'em to see th' men don't make fools o' theirsel's. Lizzie Cart wright has said how they'd b less casultles fr th' Govinment to tell about if there was a woman with a broomstick in every trench to make the men keep their 'eads down where th Germans couldn't shoot 'em -off. But o' course no woman could mike you men believe that women could be so helpful in flghtin' other men.' I pointed out to Mrs. Jordan that she was lucky and referred to Mrs. L.'s husband who would never return and to Lieut. B., who came back to his bride of two months a total wreck from poison gas. "But I'd rather he'd stayed out there klllln' more o' them Huns," concluded Mrs. Jordan. "It'd ha' bin better f r th' country, an' I'd ha' had me dress mide up an' a beaut'ful car pit on th' floor to show th' neigh bors." And Bill, waxing confidential dar ing a minute's absence of his wife, to epank young George Jordan for chew. Ing my walking stick when I wan making a short call, said: "i-ujor young 'un, the ole woman's bin awful erritable ever sine I come back, Jawrln' about me an allowances an a carpit she ain't got Lor, ow I wish I wuz In th' trenches, rheumatii an' all."

Directors JUDGE BOYD HEARS SUIT IN EQUITY Babcock Case vs. Grant Is Complicated Hester's Suit J Thown Out of Court. Judge James E. Boyd again took up y.--sterday his I. vestigatlun of tx.tr the law and the facts In connection with the suit of the Baboock Lumber company against B. P. Grant and 81 other defendants. This Is an action In equity and no Jury takes part in the determination of the Issues. Judge J. 11. Merrlmon, Merrick. Barnard and Johnston, P. G. Bernard, Marshall Hell and Robert Phillips appear for the defendants. Merrlmon, Adams and Jones and Williams and Pritchard represent the plaintiffs. The plalntirrs ask that their title to the'lands in dispute be declared to be without cloud. The defendants insist that they are not claiming the title and this situation is rather complicat ed for anybody except lawyers. The position of the defendants seems to be that It is up to the plaintiffs to prove their title to the land while the defense conducts a sort of pensive re sistance to the proceeding. The action for damages brought by (idle Hester, administrator of Charles Hexter, decessed, affalnftt the Kast Tennessee and Western North Caro lina Railway company came to an ii-upt end Thursday, rf-erncon In I'nited Htates District court. At the conclusion of the testimony for the plaintiff Judge Boyd discovered thnt the esse had not - been properly brought into his court and In fact waa not therefore within his Juris diction. It appears that the suit was brought In the Superior court of Avery coun ty under the employers' liability act. The attorneys fr the company asked for removal to the federal court; this request was refused by judge Roun tree and the defendants filed a tran script of the reoord In the Vnlted States court without making applica tion to Judge Itoyd.
