-The - men ; of ; Hendersonville
trimmed hats for" sweet charity
last Friday night,; at the - Rer
bekah's lodge rooms.
;: Some of thenxare still suffer
ing -from- the effects of their
exertions.'!
People who have seen the hats
at Mrs: - Posey's store are now
under the", doctor's care. They"
may recover
. I The,- men are- still in town
uiidef bail.
The town has received a severe
set back. The "board -of trade
will investigate the whole affair.
,::The guilty ones will be severe
ly punished.
. They may even be, obliged f to
read the political articles "in The
Times. r
Ed. Brooks got scared and did
not come to the hall until the
agony was over. He', said he
was busy. Yes.
Frank King drew the booby
prize a Taf t Billie Possum with
a pink bow at its neck. And be
carried it home tinder his arm
that proud! Ugh! His hat was
a delicate confection not It
had two wings glued on it and
some white roses and forget-me-nots
(who could?) and: brown
and white striped bows and two
streamers. It looked like a cy
clone and a San - Francisco dis
aster rolled into a ball and then
dropped i.into a barrel of mo
lasses. Henry Allen took the first
prize a gold stick pin and now
he's ashamed to look his friends
in the face. His conscience hurts
him. It ought to. His effort
was a poem a fantasy of a poet's
brain a nightmare. Its founda
tion was of tuscan straw. It had
crushed roses thrown grace
fully around the crown, an, Al
satian bow nailed on the back,
and a rhinestone buckle strapped
on in front Simple elegance
and rare good taste in blending
harmoniously the delicate colors,
were the main characteristics of
Mr. Allen's superb creation, the
sight of which made one want to
go to a dog fight
When the men had done their
worst the ladies put the results
of their labors upon their pretty
heads and wore them during the
grand march, fortunately with
out any serious after effects.
Then the violations of law and
order were auctioned off by Mr.
W. A. Smith Ed Brooks paid
$2.00 for the worst one and over
$31 was realized for the Jacobi
Home at Raleigh. Refreshments
of chocolate, coffee and cake were
served to the hundred people
present who had enjoved an ex
tremely pleasant evening.
Except for the hats.

HOUSEHOLD GOODS SOLD
- ' r Mr. Claude Brown . will -. leave
Hendersonville much sooner than
he at first -anticipated would be
possible; and expects now to be
LinDehver by not later than 10th.
Mr, 5 Brown . has ralready sold
over half of his household furni
ture in his superb home oh: Mt
Hebron Drive, and a gentleman
frpm Augusta, Ga., is now in
town ifiguring on 7 that magnifi
cent property . itself.
In fact since, the last. issue of
this paper containing the- news
of .Mr. Brown's departure, that
gentleman : has disposed of a
large part of his extensive hold
ings here.
' The' big rink has been pleased
as a Studebaker carriage reposi
tory, many out-of-town inquiries
have been received as to his real
estate, (among the most desirable
in town and he has already sold
over one-fourth of his big- stock
of farm wagons.
; In this connection by the way,
Mr. Brown says he will reduce
the price on the remaining wa
gons $2.50 each -seven days: until
they are all gone.- But at the
present rate they wont last more
than another week, as Henderson
county men are quick to snap up
a bargain.
It's the same way with the
few surries left most of ;them
havo gone the past week.
Mr. Brown says he is open to
any proposition oh his real estate
either spot cash or long time
Everything he has in this line
is for sale and at prices which
spells OPPORTUNITY' ' in
great big letters to those who
avail themselves of this chance.
Of course, Mr. Brown does not
intend to give his prorerty away-
he has too much faith in Hender-
sonville's future for that but
he does intend to sell every, foot
oi land he owns here. , The out-of-town
-inquiries received by
everymaiL indicate . that.much
of it will go to strangers unless
quick action is taken by Hender
sonville people. ''
Mr. Brown also states that all
accounts due hin.not settled by
April first will be turned o ver to
his attorneys for collection." This
is the last notice to be given as
he intends to have everything
cleaned up immediately. v
' Claude Brown has the reputa
tion of being a lightning trader.
He is extremely anxious, to get
to Denver to take charge of his
business there,: and ' is open to
any reasonable proposition made
him. ' .
As is generally known his real
estate holdings comprise some of
the choicest bits of property here
and he intends to sell every foot
of it
h Mrj iBrowix repeats his sincere
regret . that v circumstances? com
pel him to leave Hendersonville
a town beloved by him and for
which . he sees the brightest
future." v- - -' . - - v
