TY as well as City Show, and all the
people in the county . are interested
in co-operating to make it the best
Sqw ever held here.

try stock in Henderson county. The

most double.

manifested, this year's exhibition will
far surpass any held here. Both the
entries and the premiums will be first
class.

LEOPARDS SPOTS
FRIDAY MIGHT
At the Chautauqua-Auditorium Fri
day night the dramatization of Thomas
Dixon's well-known book, "The Leop
ard's Spots." , of which 500,000 have
bten sold, will be presented.
. This Is - the popular author's latest
stage .work and it promises to be one
of the best theatrical productions ever
offered the people of Hendersonville
and. community.
The advance agents advertise that
Thomas Dixon will be here and per
sonally conduct the play, which it will
take more than two hours to render. ' ,
"The Leopard's Spots" differs from.
Mr. Dixon's other stories in that it has
a wider scope, dealing not only with
incidents immediately following the
war but with events occurring through
the intervening years down to the
present day. It is the negro situation
in the South that the author presents
as usual, but this time he exposes the
modern problem regarding the rela
tions of the white race and the black.
The play depicts in an interesting
manner different periods in the history
of the New South, and tells a daring
story which is intensely dramatic at
times but interspersed with delightful
touches of comedy, it contains a
prologue and three acts, there being a
lapse of many years between the pro
logue and the play. "
An elaborate and extensive produc
tion has been furnished for the stag
ing of this new piece and a large com-
iy engaged to portray the many va
ried characters. Some novel electri
cal effects are employed to obtain
startling realism for several scenes in
the play. The burning to the ground
of a house on the stage is one of the
big moments and will dpubtles prove
a sensation.
! Will Move to City.
Rev. Dr. J. C. Coggins, who has been
living at Fletcher for a year or two,
during which time he was principal of
the graded, school at that place, held
a sale of some farm stock, Implements
and produce last Monday morning with
the view to shaping up matters prepar
atory to moving his family to Hender
sonville at an early date.
Dr. Coggins is planning to undertake
a work in this city that will doubtless

announcement of his plans are made.

The Chautauqua at Hendersonville
was given under the auspices of the
Greater Hendersonville Club, which is
Hendersouville's Chamber of Com
merce having a membership of the
leading citizens of Hendersonville. I
write in behalf of the club, which feels
that you have done it an injustice in
advertently of course--and possibly
some injury in Henderson county and
vicinity where The Saturday Evening
Post has a deservedly large circula
tion. The statement in your article
that "speculators bought tickets and
were selling them at double the fixed
price" is without foundation at all in
fact. There was at all times plenty
of room in the large auditorium; the
official ticket sellers were at their
pests all the time and never refused
to sell tickets to any one at the regu
lar price. Therefore, why should :
pie pay double price or higher price
when they could so easily obtain them
at the lower? Also we have heard of
no visitor, country or otherwise, be
ing amazed or angry at an admission
fee being charged. Angry they possi
ble might have been, but if they were
they showed no signs of it that we
could detect, and we were certainly in
a position to see signs of it had there
been any. Amazed they could not
have been, as the price of admission
as advertised everywhere along with
the fact that the lecture Itself.
We might add that these Chautau
qnas are conducted usually at a finan
cial loss to us and wholly for the ben
efit of the people:
