No matter how symmetrical nature
has made a man he cannot appear
graceful unless he is properly
dressed in good fitting clothing
made of first quality materials. Poor
fitting clothes make a man LOOK
awkward; poor quality clothes
make a man FEEL awkward, Why
spoil the joy of living, when WE can
clothe you neatly in garments that
will make you both look, feel and BE
graceful and prosperous.

ASHEVILLE WHISKEY CASES.
Judge Carter Orders Arrest of Prom
inent Hotel and Drug Store Men
on Charge of Retailing.
Some time ago, as noted at the
time, Judge Frank Carter, holding
court of Asheville directed
the Buncombe county grand jury to
investigate alleged whiskey sellers,
and when the jury failed to make any
indictment against those suspected
Judge Carter declared that he would
investigate the cases himself, acting
as an investigating or committing
magistrate. This he did and the sec
ond chapter was written Monday when
Judge Carter ordered the immediate
arrest of John H. Lange and Gay
Green, owners and proprietors of the
Langren hotel and the" Century Drug
Store; J. L. Alexander, proprietor of
the Battery Park hotel, and J. Baylis
Rector, manager of the Langren, to
gether with one other man, Isadore
Grant, colored, alleged agent of one
of the first four named. The arrests
followed immediately and the de
fendants were placed under heavy
bonds.
These men are charged with Bell
ing whiskey directly or indirectly and
a few of them with aiding and abet
ting in the traffic through their
agents.
Three of the defendants, Messrs.
Lange, Green and Alexander, were re
quired by Judge Carter to furnish
bond for their appearance from day
to day in the sum of $3,000 each. Mr.
Rector was required to furnish bond
in the sum of $1,000, and a similar
bond was named for the negro Grant.
There was a warrant issued for Vance
L. Wells, but he was reported by the
officers, to be out of the city. The
charges against him are similar to
those against Grant.
Against John H. Lange there are
two indictments including three
counts. The first of these counts is
made under section two, chapter 44
of the Public Laws of 1913, and charg
es the defendant with "selling, ex
changing, bartering, giving away for
the purpose of direct or indirect gain
and otherwise handling spiritous, vi
nous and malt liquors in the State of
North Carolina."
sThe second and third counts charge
that he "unlawfully, aided and abet
ted the sale for gain of spirituous vi
nous and male liquors to John Doe, a
person unknown to the affiant, there
by becoming a principal to said sale."
The same charges are made against
Mr. Alexander, Gay Green and J.
Balis Rector, although there are only
two counts against each of these in
cluded in one indictment. Vance L.
Wells and Isadore Grant are charged
with a direct sale to a person "un
known to the affiant"
At the same time that the order
was issued for the arrest of these
men Judge Carter issued capiases ad
testificandum for Pete Sevier, W. R.
Messer, night watchman at the Bat
tery Park hotel; Charles Nichols, a
clerk at the hotel; George Albea, G.
W. Tift and P. A. Hansom, clerks at
the Langren hotel; O. E. Franklin,
formerly manager of the Century
Drug store, in whose name a license
for the sale of liquor on prescrip
tion was held held by the store, and
Will W. Patton, formerly a book
keeper at the Glen Rock hotel, of
which J. H. Lange is owner.
Developmeryts Wednesday were: the
seizure of approximately 250 gallons
of intoxicating liquors at the place , of
business of the Owl Drug Store, in the
depot section, and the storing of the
v.hiskej in the county jail, the plac
ing of J. C. Moore, a South Main
street furniture dealer, under a bond
of $1,000 to appear before Judge Car
ter to tell what he knows about alleg
ed violations of the prohibition laws,
the ssuanos of approximately 50
warrants for witnesses, whose testi
mony will be needed in the investiga
tion now under way.
Governor Craig authorized a special
criminal term of court, to begin De
cember 15, to try the cases. This was
opposed on the ground that Judge
Carter having instituted the prosecu
tions some other judge should come
on the scene to try the cases, so Gov.
Craig has decided to allow a civil
term, for which the criminal term was
substituted, to stand, so that Judge
Carter will not try the cases.

Oyster Supper Friday Night Baraca
Class Organized Raising a "Paint
Fund."
Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Fairmont, Nov. 27 There will be
an oyster and fruit supper at White
Pond on Friday night, December 5th.
The proceeds will go toward painting
the school building. The public is
cordially invited to attend.
Our school is progressing splendid
ly under the management of Miss
Docia Watson and Miss Ora Pitman.
Nearly all the children in the dis
trict are enrolled and all seem to be
greatly interested in the work.
The Sunday school here is rapid
ly coming to the front. A Baraca class
was organized last Sunday with eigh
teen members, and the membership
committee has secured eight or ten
new members this week.' Mr. H. L.
Britt was elected president of the
class and Miss Docia Watson teach
er. Miss Docia is a great help in the
Sunday school, and we are glad in
deed to have her with us. It was
good of the Philathea class at Oak
dale to agree to give her up for a
while so she could help. us. We ap
preciate it very much. Miss Dovie
Britt is teaching the Oakdale Phila
thea class, and it is better than ever.
The money for the library has been
raised and the books are ordered.
Come on folks and let's raise money to
paint the building just as easily as we
raised that.

Nicely Death of Mrs. D. B. Lewis
Potato Crop Short.
Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Fairmont' R. 2, Nov. 27 Quite a
number fro mthis place are attend
ing court at Laurinburg this
week.
Our Sunday school is progressing
nicely now under the supervision of
our young superintendent, Mr. Mar
gie Ivey.
Look out Barnesville! We are go
ing to play a game of ball in the near
future. You can come and spectate
the game if you wish, as you do not
care about playing us yourselves.
The entire community was shocked
by the sad and almost sudden death
of Mrs. D. B. Lewis who died at the
Thompson hospital Tuesday, Novem
ber 25. She was a devoted Christian
and a member of Barnesville First
Baptist church, where she gave her
heart to God. Several years ago and
has trusted him as her only divine
leader ever since. She leaves a hus
band and several children. The re
mains were interred in the cemetery
beside Mr. Lewis' former wife who
died in 1892. Funeral was conducted
by Rev. D. P. Bridges, who delivered
the sermon to a well filled church.
Mrs. Lewis had been in failing health
for a considerable time and returned
to the hospital not many days ago for
her last time. Although she had been
in declining health, her death was
unexpected.
Digging "taters" is a thing of the
past in these parts and the crop seems
toie on the short list this time.
The school here is making nice pro
gress now under tha leadership of
Miss Bessie Johnson and Miss Dora
King, our charming young teachers.

Coughs That Prevent Sleep,
"These coughs are wearing and if

sically and lower the vital resistance
to disease. Mr. Bob Ferguson, 319

"I was greatly troubled with a bad
cough that kept me awake nights. Two
small bottles of Foley's Honey &
Tar Compound completely cured me."
