Tobacco That opular Man's fondness for chewing tobacco is created and popularized by the tobacco produced in the famous Pied mont tobacco belt. Only choice selections of this well matured, thoroughly cured leaf are used in making SCHNAPPS. That's why SCHNAPPS requires and takes a smaller amount of sweetening than any other kind and that's why SCHNAPPS has a wholesome, stimu lating and satisfying effect on chewers. There are many imitations of SCHNAPPS claiming to be "just as good," but without the flavor or quality that has made SCHNAPPS sales more than all similar tobaccos. It is made in the Reynolds factories, famous for producing the best chewing tobaccos, by clean,-sanitary processes, under, the same direction, since 1875, of men who have made the business a life study.

Negro Who Claimed to Be WHi Harris Run Down and Meets'Just Fate Near Fletcher's. The desperate negro, alleged to be the noted Will Harris, who, Tuesday on the streets of Ashe villc, slew Policemen Bailey and Blackstock and three negroes, has been taken dead. The wild rumors of negro suspects located -in various sections sur rounding Asheville simmered down to a tangible basis this morntrfg when it was announced that a nefrro carrying a gun and answering to the description of the desperado had been seen near thc Bikmore estate. It was stated that the negro was seen leaving a barn in the Lflmestone township section of Buncombe county early this morn ing, and a posse was immediately formed in Asheville and started in pursuit. Some time after 10 o'clock -the negro was sighted and the chase started. Near Fletcher's, some lo or 12 miles from Asheville. the posse was so hot on the desperado trail that the negro turned and j prepared for a right with the X)sse. Shortly before 11 o'clock the fight began and in 15 minutes the negro was dead, riddled by more than 100 shots. Two of the possemen were struck by bullets from the negro's gun. The posse has not returned here with the negro and it cannot be learned who were hurt nor how badly. The negro carried the same gun j that lie had used with such demlly eft'ort in Asheville Tuesday night. Realizing that ho could not escape the posse, he turned and used the Savage ritle freely. He put up a stubborn fight and move than 200 shots were fired at him by the posse. It is certain that the r.r negro It is certain that the right negro cl(n of 10 w I.

Mr Hilderbrand said that, according to information at Fletcher's, the negro was seen leaving a barn of Dave Stevens1 near Buena Vista and Asheville was notified. The negro was going toward Skyland and Fletcher's, but evidently with the intent of circling these towns. At Skyland, Arthur Case, is sta- iade Wj . .
