Mrs. Evelyn H. Clarke Has Not Disappeared ( (Friday's Daily) -V Mrs. Evelvn M. (Jlarke has been located.' She is at , Sam XXXL Hill O uviiiv vi A..- Drivp. arrd the mystery of her fKsarmearance is no mystery at aii. " ;V': : Mr. Gurry did hot. leave town yesterday morning as stated in yesterday's Daily Hustler, but is still in town?" He failed, to get his baggage checked in time and decided to remain over a short time, anyhow. Mrs. Clarke is here for her health.' Certain papers pertain ing to her husband's divorce suit were sent here for her sig nature, with a letter of advice from his attorney stating that this method of procedure .would result in the least publicity and would require no service of legal documents on her by Sheriff Blackwell. Mrs. Clarke says she has sign ad tne papers mentioned and be low are statements from Mr. rinrnr mrl ViPr nhnnt thlS affair. which will be interesting.. MR. CURRIE TALKS. To a Hustler reporter last night Mr. Curtie said: "I, regret the appearance of the story in this aiternoon's . pa per concerning Mrs. Clarke and myself and especially object to the part indicating that she had mvsteriouslv left the place. The simple story is: AVe went to drive, took dinner at the Gates and then went to her boarding place, where I remained a short while, returning to the hotel alone. Nothing mysterious about that. I f dil to see the improprie ty of friends going to drive or taking .dinner together. Mrs. Clarke lives here, you see, and has done nothing 'to warrant the intimation that 'she seems to have faded away like the mist of the morning before the rising sun and no trace of her can be found. ' She could have easily have been found with the least bit of effort. She is here for her health and I came, at the request of friends, to find out how she, is getting along. I intended leaving here this morning, but failed to reach the station in time to have my bag gage checked and decided to re main until tomorrow morning. Please say for me that any sug gestion reflecting upon the char acter of Mrs. Clarke is unwar ranted and entirely incorrect." mrs. clark's statement. Mrs. Evelyn M. Clarke, in her own behalf, made the following statement to the Daily Hustler this morning: v "I came here eight weeks ago from my Home in San Antonio, Texas, and am living at the home of Mr. Sam Hardin. The object of my coming tot Hendersonville was in the hope of regaining my health and I. am now undergoing treatment under Dr. Egerton and p."XTPP.t. to rpmnin Viprp rndpfirifha. ly. Am a sister of G. F. Chapel, who has also been living here for quite awhile. Mr. A. H. Currie came at the re quest of my people to ascertain something ot my condition, ar riving at 4 p. m. Wednesday. We are old acquaintances. Thursday afternoon Mr. Currie and myself took a drive and on our return were so unfortunate as to stop at Hotel Gates for supper, where I accidentally dropped a letter, the contents of which were given, by someone connected with the ho tel, to your paper and from that comes the story yesterday that does me a great injustice, in that it leaves the impression that I had mysteriously disappeared from ther liouse. Of course we did not remain at the hotel after supper. I did not stop there with the intention of remaining over night, and went immediately to my boarding place. Mr. Currie accompanied me, but returned to .the Gates early in the evening and I saw no more i of him until yesterday morning at the station." He ex pected to go away at that time, but did not arrive in time to have his baggage checked. This is the whole storv. I have nothing to conceal. I was surprised and humiliated to see the sensational story in your paper ' yesterday and sinmlv want to remove ; the impression made in the article re nectinsr uDon mv character as a lady. This done and I am con tent." - ." (Friday's Daily) FOUND A baby on Main Street. Owner can Jiave same by paying for this notice and identifying property. Apply Hustler office. If anyone has lost a baby, ex act age not known, neatly dress ed and very, pretty, he . may Te: cover same by calling at this of fice or seeing John Fisher, the young son of L. E. Fisher, who found the infant on Main street yesterday evening. It was on the sidewalk looking intently at the blue sky and may have been waiting for a street car. . It is too young to talk much and so far every effort to get an expression of opinion from it as to the street railway situation here has failed. It only looks at you with the bluest of blue eyes and maintains the , cheerfullest smile as tho' there was no such thing as a Daily Hustler and trouble in the w)rld. v . " .. Mr. Fisher is anxious for the owners of the baby to ca.ll and get their property, and will not even charge for this advertise ment nor make any charges if the parents' act promptly. Possibly it might do as well to say that the child is made of rub berit's a doll. V , Musical And Dramatic t. An entertainment will be giv en for the building fund of St; Mary's Church during the com ing week. A number of the talented visitors and residents have consented to take part in this entertainment which will be given at the court house, Satur day evening, August 28th. - Be sides the musical program there will be a number of recitals and to be followed by dancing. tickets may be obtained at the following places: Justus Pharmacy, S. Johnson, Hunter's Pharmacy, Smiths' Grocery, Gates Hotel, Wheeler Hotel, Blue Ridge Inn. From. Mrs. Mabel Mitchell, who with her husband, worked the time worn old "badger game" on a Hendersonville visitor, , recently, has been heard from. Deputy Sheriff, Tom Conner heard from her and he's sorry for it, too. Ytou see, itfwas this way: When Mrs. Mitchell left so hastily after the Daily Hustler had given unwelcome publicity to her method of increasing her income, her baggage was held by the hotel people for a little unpaid bill. Deputy Conner received a tele gram from Mrs. Mitchell yester day asking him to meet No. 42 withher grips and she would then hand him the amount neces sary o settle her hotel bill So, loaded down to the limit and then some more, the the big deputy toted the numerous hand satch els, suit cases, etc., to the de pot, and waited, and waited. Finally the train pulled in but Mrs. Mabel Mitchell was not aboard to receive her possessions nor to give the deputy the coin with which to settle her little bill.

Mitciiell Heard iO. 13 18 Li Z f Say Four GenllemR Has the old tradition that the. number 13 is, an unlucky" ore x died out? Many of the late ar ticles on the subject have led the readers to believe that this num- j ber, of all lumbers, has changed its course and is now, considered J a lucky dne. ' However; notwi thstan i r, 3 X he I superstitions of the past," ji very ; remarkable co-incident took place I at a dinner, table in ths Blue Ridge Inn the other day. There yere four gentlemen sitting- at the table. Three of ' them v.-ere traveling men, while the other was a newspaper representative. A disconnected Sconversation had been running along between the gentlemen while busy eating their dinner. One of the men turned to his friend nearest hjm and saidi: "A funny ' thing happened to me last Friday. I started out out on this trip that day the 13th of this month and it has been thirteen years, ex actly, since I commenced work for my company. Taking an interest in the con versation at this point another gentlemen made the remark that one Christmas he bought a Jpre sent for a young lady "friend of his which he shipped to her by express and when he counted up how , much it cost him the price was $13.13. And he considered the number lucky from the fact that he married that same young lady. Out of the four men at this table two of them were born on the 13th' day of the month. None of them vvera the least surprised about the number and one of the gentlemen continued 'to relate another experience of his with the lucky 13. He said he was in one of the best hotels in Charlotte one night and every room was taken except number 13. He took this room and says he never spent a better nights rest in his life, than he did in room numbc r 13. Has Mrs Evelyn ClarKe Signed lose Papers? (Thursday's Daily.) While her husband, in far off San Antonio, Texas, is preparing to bring suit for divorce, Mrs. Evelyn M. Clarke, who is young, pretty and well dressed, register ed last night at one of Hender sonville's best known hotels and ther took dinnner with Mr. E. M. Curry, of New York. After enjoying such a repast as this big hotel is noted for, the couple disappeared from sight absolutely. Mr. Curry, this morning, paid his bill and has gone his way, but Mrs. Clark, who is young and pretty and who wears her clothes well, has not been seen again. She seems to have faded away like the mist of the morning be fore the rising sun and no trace of her can be f ound. But, in' the meantime, has she yet signed those papers, sent her by her husband's attorney, which will permit hubby to proceed with his suit for divorce? If she has, Sheriff Blackwell will have no papers to serve on the fair defendant, for the at torney tells her that only in this way may the divorce proceedings be brought without any undue publicity and with the least in convenience to her. But where is Mrs. Evelyn M. Clarice of San Antonio, Texas? Mr. E. M. Curry of i New York has gone but the whereabouts of Mrs. Clarke, altho' she is somewhere in Hendersonville, remains a tlark, gloomy mystery. And in the meantime, the di vorce mill is grinding merrily in the Lone Star State, and Sheriff Blackwell has been robbed of his fees if Mrs. Evelyn M.. Clark has signed those papers. Increasing and Safeguarding the Wheat-Crop - The ' use ;cf ; com (l mercial fertilizers on ' 'the wheat crop is year ly bee o ming more -general proof enough ; that it pays, and pays well. Too many -farmers, however, use fertilizers without due regard for the special needs . c their -soils. Often they buy the cheapest grades. .Or they use very small quantities. "'' rv That such unscientific use of fertili zers has proved profitable indi; cates what it can accomplish for wheat grow ers ff used Unfertilized more carefully and intelli- gently: The best way to learn just what . fertilizers will pay you best is to make com parative tests on a small scale with your soils then use a THE ELECTRIC STREET RAILWAYS. There are "no developments in the local street railway situation, but there's a heap of talking be ing done. Both the rival franchise owners have agreed to start work as soon as City Council points out where to lay the tracks, which they will do within a week. Mr. R. F. 'It's the prettiest town I have ever seen. I have not been here in eleven years and simply did not know my old home town." So said Mr. R. 'F. Hyman of Lakeland,- Fla.f this morning. Mr. Hyman left Hendersonville 20 years ago. His old home is now the Hyman Heights property and he spent most of his early days in. that fine old building there. Mr.Hyman's first wife was a niece of Dr. Few and their son John,, is nqw in his third year at Annapolis and will soon be a United States navy officer. P. F, Patton, secretary of the Wan teska Bank, is a cousin of his and of course his people are scat tered all over this county. He will remain at the Gates for a week or so and next season hopes to return with his family for a longer stay in what he thinks the 'prettiest town.
