j.ooo Mcveral III In.
The new nlilernianie tu'elock rule went
into effect yciterdav nfternooii. The rejf
ulnr weekly meeting be)uu pretty soon
niter that hour.
There was a considerable numlicr of
nuditoia, but the faces present were in
the main new ones, faces that could not
encourage llie hoard except at meetings
held in the afternoon.
There was likewise a falling off in the
attendnnce of old friends who have
adorned the benches in the mayor's office
in rain or snow or dry weather fur many
months, until this new wrinkle was taken
up.
Alderman Reynolds was late, but not
because lit forget the hour, lkside him
there were present Aldermen Oudgcr,
McDowell, Stnrnes and Leonard. Muyor
nianton presided.
rax Exemption Again.
W. W. Jones, esq., representing the
Asheville I'urniture and uiuiiufueluring
company, and the I". A. Demens Wood
working company, argued the matter of
exemption from taxation for those com
panies. He represented that there had
been an error in the tux list, which
showed that neither of the firms ennu
under the $.r.(),0()0 provision made by
the aldermen several years ago. lie
stated that the companies had over the
prescribed amount invested, and asked
the board to give them the exemption
given Mr. Graham's company.
A sharp discussion followed between
Mr. Jones and J. M. Camplicll, of the
Asheville Tobacco works. Mr. Cnmp
liell notified the hoard that if anv of the
manufacturer were exempted afl should
be, and rice veisa, and t lie mutter would
be taken into the courts for settlement.
Alderman ionard finally moved that
the tax collector Ik-instructed to collect
taxes from all manufacturing conipnuies
employing unner JSoll.OtM) ..apital. Car
ried. Mpcclal TaxrH.
The sHxial tax list was next gone over
and n few changes made. The license on
wholesale and retail liquor dealers was
increased horn $500 to $1,0011; 'drug
stores, exept for medicinal purposes,
$!,0IM); on phnuliers, increased from $'.Ti
to IS.W: on ticket sculncrs. reduced from
$10 to $5.
J. H. Lee in behalf of several teamsters
asked the hoard to lessen the social tux
on ox teams. Alderman Reynolds said
he had driven ox teams in the long ago
and proposed to stick by anv (crsun
whose lines tell that way. So' the tax
was lowered to $.50 per year.
About I'ovIiik.
The uinjor.city engineer nnd the stfect
committee were instructed to go to Rich
mond at d inspect the paving there, and
Commissioner Conant, of the advisors,
Was asked to accompany them. Alderman
Uudgcr, by whose motion this wus done,
was sure that the visit would lie profita
ble in the end and the citizens would
never protest against such use of their
money.
The mayor was instructed to pay liu
gineerCutshnw.of Richmond, a reason
able sum lor his services here in consul
tation with the joint board.
A Nultutuce Coiwpluliivd Of.
Capl. Null Atkinson, for himscll and
Dr. II. L. Taylor, protested against the
erectiou of a "mammoth chicken coop"
near the llallery I'ark hotel by Col. Coxe,
which building will lie witlung thirty
feet of the kitchen of Capt. Atkinson.
ne increiore asked the hoard to look
into the inn ttcr, as no permit had ever
been received by Col. Coxe to erect the
coop. A committee consisting of Alder
men McDowell, Slarni-s and Brevard
was appointed to look into the matter
nil stop llie building if thought neces
sary.
Win Kettulnjle Thl.itfH.
Alderman Keyuolds, for the committee
to look into the work on the new city
hall and market house, reported that
hey had spent some time on the build
ing. They had found a rather poor class

who recently returned from a brief visit
to Asheville, given me such a tantalizing
statement of the weather of the moun
tains as to make me feci bv contrast the
extent of the heat here. It it hot, but in

who would willingly suffer to say they
had beard such a celebrity.
It Bliould Come Here.
Dr. Murphy wnsgreutly pleased with his
experience at Asheville, and is encouraged
in Iiok.s that the Bureau of Sanitation
will be fixed at Asheville. That will de
iKiid upon the liliernl interest taken in it
iiy the citizens ol the city. It will be of
eonpicious advantage to Asheville if she
secured it. It will lie emphatic enuncia

Another consultation between the
aldermen and advisors and City lingi
ncer Cutshaw, of Richmond, was held
yesterday afternoon. Mr. Cutshaw has
iniprcBscd the board with his thorough
knowledge of the paving question. It
was practically desided that where brick
pavement is to be put down a ten-inch
bed ol sand will lie laid, packed with u
fifteen-ton roller, nnd the bricks given a
double "tamping."
A committee was appointed at yester
day's meeting of the aldermen to go to
Richmond and investigate the manner ol
paring observed in that city. The com
mittee is composed of Mayor lllauton,
City Ungincer Lee, Aldermen Keyuolds,
