Feeling In the market today waa decidedly bullish, For the first timo in weeks operators came In with tbe Intention of advancing tbe price, There has been an absence of business for somo weeks but now It looks u it there would be business enough to put prices up before the move ment picks up enough to stop the ad vance. The statistical position la ftrong u long as there i no weight of cotton felt, the tendency should be toward an Improvement. There Is a general feel ing that the market will do better, that we cannot see how an -advance can be prevented now that fotjr buying hu star.ed, The pollpjf of taking profits hu keen prevented for some time. We would bny o all weak spots for a time and see what the outcome will be. Jan uary la still unhealed and it la possible the present advance la not going to last long. This will of coarse be true If the movement gets larger;,. It Is larger than a while ago but not enough to prevent an advanolng nwket. Now as the mar ket !l advancing we think If you buy on any breaks we, think you will mske good profits.

Loss By Firtj Weather ' . . Clear an4 Cold. ,, . r t I Buok Mochtais, Dee. 86. Chrlstmu week, 'which Is usually the liveliest in all the year, wu anything but .tame in this ordinarily tranquil little town. We have had more than our pro rata of ex citement, and now that it Is all over, oar nerves fill ' back into their every day condition with a dull thud. Chriatmu day was an Idle one. The weather wu clear and cold, and the country was covered with snow. Itwu a day to re mind one most keenly of the origin ot this great festlval,and one which prompt ed him to Join heart and soul in singing the beautiful anthem "Peace on earth good wil to men,"-Following will be found a few of the events which served to render the week a memorable one at Black Mountain. In all prohibition towns, with possibly a few exceptions, there Is elwsys a living aggressive, and irrepressible evil, com monly known u the "Blind Tiger." To the uninitiated it may be well to at ate that the"Blind Tiger"is only a nick name for a place where liquor is retailed with out license, and In open defiance of law and order. Black Mountain being a dry town, hu alww boasted such a luxury, and all the efforts of government sleuth hounds to Weak up tbe evil, have hereto fore proven impotent and unavailing. Trap after trap hu been set and sprung, but the bird always escsped. Scheme af ter scheme hu been set on foot, but nothing definite resulted. The liquor continued to be sold, In quantities either large or small to suit the purse of the purchaser. Last Tuesday night, however, wit nessed a decided change of conditions. It saw the "Blind Tiger" bearded In his den, and his abundant supply of moun tain dew confiscated by the ruthless ser vants of Uncle Sim, d only two days before Cariatmu 1 On Chrlstmu morn Ing there were bright faces and happy hearts a plenty In the town, but there were also dry palates, and hard words.to burn It was truly a dry Chrlstmu for more than one. The circumstances leading up to, and Including the raid on Tuesday night are briefly as follows: Immediately north of the Mount Mit chell Hotel is a cottage owned and occu pied In summer by Mrs. James Weather- J . . .... T. T . , ley oi Birmingiiam, &ia. uunug- mo winter for the sake of protection the cottage lis occupied by a man named Tirney together with his family. Tirney Is a man who is always on the lookout to stake a dollar. With him possession Is nine points of the law, consequently the exact manner in which he makes the dollar outs little or no Ice. The important thing with him is to get it, the manner In wh'ch it is got, is a secondary con sideration. : In casting his eyes around for a soft easr war to get a living, his mind hit npon the Idea of running a "Blind Tiger-" That wu several win ters ago". Suffice it to say that he acted on tha thouzht and since (hat time he hu been conducting a flourishing bus! ness in defiance of all laws both State and national. ' Last Tuesday night he saw his flnlshA It requlru but a few worda to tell how it happened. When the train from Asheville rolled in en the day in question three grim vlsaged men alighted at the station. Who they were or whither they were bound ho body knew. But they soon laid to rest U doubts as to their Intentions. Wlihost a moment's hesitation they went ' as straight to Tlrney's home m their legs would carry themj, Once ' there, In the name of Uncle Sam, (for they were reve nue officers) they began a Bearchofthe premises. In a short while they unearth ed sixteen gallons of sore, genuine, un adultrated mountain dew. ThN they promptly took In charge, and when they returned to Aahevllto took it along with them. In the meantime Tlntey made good his escape to the mountains. There he hu been in hiding since Tuesday until today when he was Captured by a crowd who were hunting him. He wu taken to Ashevjlle and wlll oo given a hearing tomorrow. Thus ilendeth the harrtnroNi uncheckered career of the Black Mountain "Blind Tiger."

The event referred to, was the msrrtsg of Mjss Janet Marie Allred to Mr Chartes Conky Dougherty which took Dlacai at the Methodist Church on Christmas Eve ' The church wu beauti fully decorated with holly and mistletoe and a large number of friends and ac quaintances were gathered lowliness the ceremony. The attendants were MlHU I Sadie ', Dougherty and nettle Green: Messrs -Richard W. Campbell o. Asheville, and Walter L. Dougherty. The ushers were Messrs C. Whit Gas kins and WUllam C. Green. Rev.

The many friends of Mr Wa S Guklns will regret to learn ot a misfortune which befell him on Chrlstmu eve. His bam which contained, his winter supply hay and feed wu burned to the ground. Fortunately the fire wu discovered in time to aave the hones and vehicles. The lou waa between $75.00 and $100.00 Mr. Guklna la firm la the opinion that the fire wu of Incendiary origin, and la determined to bring the guilty i to justice.
