ihg td nre boss, Stevens, ofLamont
mine, the rising waters claim at least
three more victims, bringing tni
etli 4ist here np to; 17. Stevens
that more than 100 men were at work
in the Lamoht mine when the
rising waters , flowed into digging.
Ninety-one escaped and several oth
ers are accounted for, but itis prac-.
tically certain that three of them are
dead.
Mining experts estimate that it
will probably be two months before
dead bodies of the fourteen miners
in Superba mine can be recovered.
Thought- that rushing waters swept
the men possibly 1,000 feet back into
underground workings.

July 24. What -waa possibly the
most profitable address ever deliver

Convention was that of Don C. Seit

was along practical, rather than the
oratorical lines, and was the kind of
"shop talk" the members of the as

ing Mr. Seijs there was a practical
talk by W. II. Savory on the cost
of advertising to the publishers, a
subject that vitally concerns every
publisher. The association has nev

the one today. .r

Raleigh, July 24. Referring to the
letter of Walter Clark, Jri," Charles
A. Webb, chairman of the Democrat
ic executive committee, said today:
"I shall not permit myself to be
involved in controversy at the outset
of my work as State chairman with
Mr. Clark, nor any other Democrat.
It is my duty to cultivate harmony
and to treat all concerned, impartial
ly. The senatorial candidates- can
rest assured that I shall give each of
them a 'square deal' in all matters
that I have anything to do .with.
"On the other hand, I shall expect
that they and their managers will
consider the interest of the Demo
cratic party as paramount ' to their
ambitions. The fact that" I " voted
'no' on the" proposition "to postpone
the consideration of the" inatter pf
defining words 'Democratic ticket,' in
the State executive committee should
be' well known to young 'Mr. CJark
"He was present. I spoke distinct
ly and tbe secretary recorded me as
voting ' no, ' and the papers reported
me as so voting. Why h "should have
misrepresented my action m this mat-
tef j8 not for tae to explain if I
could, 1 would make an explanation
creditable-to Mr. Clark's. I am sure
I can leave the matter with the Dem
ocrats of. North Carolina,1 while I go

of what he is doing and how he does
it. He is doing things that, no one
thought could be done.: he u biking.
There is one other thing he might do,
however,, seeing as, how. no one else
appears to be able to do it.: tie might
get hold of that bill prohibiting the
shinment of liquor into dry .territory.

Lester, Clairvoyant ".Who
Could See Into Future With the
f Help of Jewelry, Has Gone to Par
. away Climes.
Asheville, July 23. There is weep-1
and and gnashing of teeth and like-1
wise wringing of hands, (ringleeai
hands npw) among the fair sex of I
Asheville, anent the departure for
parts unknown of one Madame Nina
Lester, self-professed clairvoyant and
gaser into the mystic future. Mad
ame Lester departed from this city
some time yesterday, according to
the police, and with her went divers
and numerous pieces of valuable jew
elry, which had -been entrusted to her
by confiding dupes, said to be among
the most prominent women of the
city, in order tht she might, with
greater clarity, depict the future to
them. y
It was the same old trick that
clairvoyants and fortune tellers have
beeen working for years, and the
Asheville women "fell" for it the
same as many others have fallen in
other cities. Madame Lester's haul
was a good one, if reports be correct,
one woman alone having lost one ring
for which she is vainlyv offering a
reward of $50. Madame Lester, or
whatever her name may be, is said to
have told her dupes that 'she could
get a better connection with their
future 'fate if Bhe were given some
article of jewelry which the flupes
Wore, to keep for a stated interval.
They handed over enough jewelry,
and when it grew to enough value to
make the risk worth while, the mad
arae quietly packed her belongings
and departed.
Madame Lester 'wandered into
Asheville about two months ago, ac
companied by a man who called him
self: Monroe. She opened an office
on Merrimon avenue, and' spread her
bait for the fish she knew were sure
to come, Among her clients she is
said to have numbered some of the
most prominent women socially in
the city, and the rest was easy. While
the police are searching for the wo
man and making esvery effort to find
her, they have no clue so far, and are
sending out descriptions to all the
leading cities. They carefully refuse
to give out the names of any of their
clients, but the identity of some of
them is more than suspected, and
should the woman be,eaught, the case
will attract the most attention of any
that has ever been tried in this part
of the State on account of the prom
inence of the victims.
