POT BEGINS TO BOIL The 'political pot has been only simmering for several months. - It has now commenced to boil. The Republi can executive committee of the 0th congressional district held an enthus iastic meeting in Aaheville Tuesday. In addition to members of the com mittee, there were ' present leading Republicans from the various coun ties of the 'district. The meeting was held in the Elk's building, and was presided over by Brownlow Jackson, chairman of the committee. : v - The committee voted unanimously to hold a convention for the purpose of recommending a candidate to run for Congress in the next regular elec tion, and to choose two delegates and two alternates to the Republican Na tional convention, and also to select an elector for the 10th district. .'The committee also selected Ashe-, villa as the most (suitable place for the holding of such convention. And 10 o'clock in. the forenoon of Feb. 7 was decided upon as the time for the holding of the convention. : ; Former Congressman J. J. Britt, presented the motion to hold such con vention. The advisability of adopt ing the motion provoked spirited dis cussion by Republicans present in the meeting. . Among those who spoke on the motion were ;I , L. Jenkins. Thomas J. Harkins, John B. Ensley, J. J. Britt, McKinley Pritchard, B. Jackson C. C Lissenbee and W. C. Robertson. . : ' ' .

Sh4 had been in poor health for quite a long while In March last- she; un derwent an operation of a serious na ture in the Jiope that as a result of same, she might be restored to health once again. But not so, ,' She .never recovered. -In fact, she' gradually grew weaker until ( the Grim Reaper visited her .Tuesday morning, when the spirit of this good woman was car ried away from an earthly place of abode-and transplanted in a garden where' it will live fprever. . ; ;, " The deceased was a daughter of the1 late Col. and Mrs. T. W. Taylor, who passed into the Great . Beyond several years ago. She was 64 years of age at the time of her death and was born and raised out " on the French Broad river, in Mills River township. .' She was married at the age of 21 to J. A. Bryson, who Sur vives her, and is now a member of the police force of the town of Bre vard. :. .A ;.;.' .- ' '.,. Mrs. Bryson had lived here since shortly after the close of the war between the states, and was well known by most all of the older peo ple of the community, as well as many of the younger ones. She was a member of the Presbyterian church, the, Macabees and the U. D. C. The deceased leaves surviving, be sides her husband, J. A. Bryson, two brothers, Jerome . Taylor, of Cannon City, Colorado, and John Taylor, who resides in Canada ; also - one sitter, Mrs. Flora Lincoln, Of Brooklyn, N. Y., and tne following children: S.,T Bryson and Mrs. Norma Sandife, both of Henderjonville. One daugh terAMrs.;:Maud Bryson-Heffner died some' yean ago. 'TWo brothers, Pierce and Avery, both of whom resided fn Texas, also died some years ago. -Funeral services were conducted Wednesday afternoon at the Presby terian church in thisreity by Rev. J. F. Ligon, the pastor, and interment fpllowed in Oakdale cemetery. Thos. bhepherd officiated as funeral direc tor. v A large number of the friends and neighbors of the deceased were pres ent at the funeral and burial to pay the last sad rites to one whom they had so well and, favorably known dur ing all the years she had resided amongst them. The grave was covered with beauti ful floW.ers as a token of love from many friends. "And though a dear mother is tak ing her rest, There, is another day when hearts will be forever bound, With chords of love that never break." l N. D. HOLLINGSWORTH N. D. Hollingswprth, a well-known citizen of Flat Rock, died Saturday night of heart disease, with which he had been afflicted for quite a long while. Funeral services and' inter ment occurred at Mud Creek Baptist church Sunday afternoon.- A large number of the friends and neighbors attended theuneral and burial, thus attesting the esteem in which the de ceased was held by those who knew him best. ' , , Mr. HolUngsworth had conducted a livery business at. Flat Rock for sev- eral years, and had met with good success up to the time his health failed him. fie was a good citizen and will be missed in the community wher he had resided most all his life. i- The deceased was twice married.

H i On 'last Friday evening at the Opera House about 500 people en joyed the Canadian De Mille Quartet, ks the opening number of the Hender ionviUe Lyceum Course. - . ' j Enthusiastic and repeated en cores of practically all of the num bers ' indicated the unanimous ap proval of the audience. Notwith standing the. fact that the first and ecohd tenors,' M. J. Baker and Em it Hazeltine, recently , joined the LAuartet ,the en-semble work was that of, real artists.. :-:.' : li The solo work of Alfred J. Atkin son, basso and Hartwell De Mille was exceptionally good. The work of Miss Hilda Buckingham was greatly enjoy- d and displayed not only technical skill but a decided wealth of tempera ment, , ... J The next number of the Lyceum 'ir' t. -' s ; Course will be given by the Floren tine Musicians, Saturday evening of this week at the Opera House, i In the absence of the Fassifern -girls it will be possible for the man agement to accommodate at least seVenty-five additional season ticket holders or general admissions. This trio of sterling artists, espec ially organized by Andrew Vissochi to present the best in the field of novelty music and entertainment wilj doubtless prove one of the most pop ular numbers of the course. r'The musical centers of the world know Vissochi as one of the greatest masters of the concert accordion. In his hands this instrument becomes symphony orchestra, a military band, or a crashing chorous. His repertoire k3ows no limitations and his support ing, artists, Olga Capucco, violiniste, ana Rosamond Wright, pianiste, 1iave won laurels in the realm of music on emended concert tours. rEthel .Sudlow ' of Rutherford county has accepted a position a's teachef in the graded school here, WiKONNEW; CHURCH BEGUN ' Immediately after the Sunday morn ing service, which was conducted by Rev. R. V. Miller, the members of the East Hendersonville Baptist church held a business meeting. It was officially stated by D. S. Pace that 'work on the new church had begun in earnest. Mr. Pace also gave an outline of the plans of the new church, which when completed, will be a brick veneer building 60x72 feet, with three Sunday school rooms and a gallery. The church will have a seating capacity of eleven or twelve hundred people. C. S. Fullbright, who acted as chairman of the meeting appointed two committees to canvass the entire church membership for the purpose of securing building funds. The com mittees were composed of the follow ing; Mrs. T. B. Gonnon, Miss Manda Ramsey Miss Alma Freeman, L. J. Pace, Finley Pace and T. J.'Hyder. The committees are preparing to be gin their work at once. The ; building formerly owned by the Baptist was sold several months aK, lto , the Weslyn Methodist and since . that time , both 'df nominations have ' been holding services in the same building. This plan will con tinue until the Baptist are able to inove into their new church. MURRAY-JORDAN A wedding With, a tinge of romance was lomnized; Wednesday night in Florence, S.

I:s Monday afternoon a' S. 0 S. call was . sent -in to the sheriff's office from the northeast section of the county. ' The man sending in the call appeared to be much excited but de puties at the sheriff's office finally understood the message. It ran some- thinar Vke this: "Bring ten men, well arnt'Mg blockade still being oper ated 1y about fifteen men on back of Big Bear Wallow." In the absence of the sheriff, who had gone to Raleigh on official bus iness, a couple of his deputies under took to get ready to respond to the call for help, They approached sev eral men here in town and told' them that a big blockading outfit had been located near the Buncombe ' county line in the northeast part of the coun ty 'Kind that the services of at least ten men were heeded to raid it. Each of the men approached by the depu ties was asked to go along and help destroy the booze-making plant and, if possible capture the operators. ButThey all, with one accord, told the deputies they would like very well to go along, but they were just too busy and had too many other engagements to fill at that time to even think of going. The two deputies, after making vain efforts to get the ten men want ed, oV aytoen at all, to go with them, responded to the S. O.' S. call themselves. They preceded to the place where the man making the call said they would find him. When they got there they found a sure enough excited man armed with a shot gun, He informed the officers as to the lo cation of the still. Plans were then laid as to how the raid should be made. The three men proceeded to the- place where the still was said to the located IStMfl they got near the place they divided, one going below the plant, another above it and the other at another point where it was thought the opera tors might attempt to make their escape. Before the men got the plant surrounded, however,- an alarm' was given and the operators of the still left the premises in great' haste, leav ing behind them a gun or two and other paraphanalia. None were cap tured, but the officers managed to identify them, or most all of them, and warrants for their arrest will probably be issued right away. The officers cut up the still, which was a brand hew copper of large capacity, and bursted up and burned the fermenters which contained thou sands of gallons of beer just ready for distillation. The plant was in full operation, having just been started. About a half gallon of spirits had run out when the officers arrived. The plant, the officers state, was the largest blockading outfit they have ever seen. Its destruction, they say, entailed a loss of about two thou sand dollars to its owners, and doubt less will limit the Christmas joys of a very considerable number of pea. pie quite materially. WM.
