If all the merchants in the city
would imitate Sawyer and Carmi-
chael, aud a few others, and keep
small hose and sprinkle the streets

each but little and add very greatly
to their own comfort and that of the
public.
A foreign fiiend who has been re
siding in Asheville for several years,
and who has travelled much in this
and other countries, remarked to us
a day or so since : " The old charge
against this thriving city that it is
the home of mud and dust is now
a thing of the past, for what with
well watered and macadamized
streets we are above many plhces with
tar more pretentions and treble our
size, and therefore must continue to
grow as the all-the-year-round

Mr. W. McD. Burgin, formerly
of Marion, has purchased a lot in
She.by Park, and wiH have erected
at once a handsome residence for
his own use, as "he has determined
to make Asheville his home. We
welcome our friend, and his, and all
like them. ' .
The vestry of the Episcopal
Church, at their meeting yesterday,
extended a call to Rev. Mr. Harden
formerly of North Carolina, but late
ly assistant Rector of the church of
the Messiah, Brooklyn, to the'assis
tant Rectorship ot Trinity Church
of this city, and it is believed the
gentleman will accept.
Piesident Cleveland has been
invited to attend a re-union and
banquet of of the live stock breeders
of the United Slates to be held at
Chicago, in November.' He said it
wag too jac olj to- mak .a promise.
We hope our President will not
allow anything or any section to
prevent his coming to Asheville and
our mountains this summer.
The West Point Terminal if said
to be after the Georgia, running
from Savannah to Atlanta and
other points, and the Florida Rail
way and Navigation Company's
system of Florida. As the West
Point Terminal seems to move
things when it does get a hold, we
wish it would take pity on this
Little Orphan of ours, the Spartan
burg road, and see what can be
made of it. It is a wayward little
thing now, and not so promising as
its god-fathers and step-mothers
would like it to be. Let something
be done to save it.
Vandalism on the Swannanoa.
We deeply regret to hear that the
trees along the banks of the Swan
nanoa are being cut down thus de
stroying one of the most delight
ful drives in or near Asheville. We hope
those who own tire property will have
this stopped. :
Join the D. D.'s.
We met one of our reverend
friends yesterday, and asked him
"When D. D.'s fall cut what must
ordinary mortals do," and he
promptly replied, "they must turn
V. JJ.'s too. Don't Do It." This was
too neat not to tell.
Merchant Tailors.
Messrs. J. C. Brown & Co., at No.
25 Patton Avenue, have established
the fact that they can please ' the
public in their line. First class work
done in every respect and in all
cases,and gentlemen;wanting suits of
the best make should give them a
trial. See card elsewhere.
LiET US 1HANK UOD AND TAKE
Courage.
When we are disposed to complain
of not having all our streets and side
walks elegantly paved we must re
member that even Boston, the Hub,
has only 70 miles of paved streets.
t has 548 miles of streets, and it
has 488 miles with gravel, 60 with
broken stones and others with .as
phalt, &c. This, too, after having
expended some $12,000,000 on its
streets. Just give us only half a
show, and Asheville will be a head
of all the cities in permanent, first
class improvements, yet.
Extending Backward.
Now we do not mean all this may
imply, and yet we do mean just
what we say. Mr. Heston, the pop
ular confectionor in Eagle block,
finding it necessary to enlarge his
dimensions, and not being permit
ted to go forward, is having a large
addi'ion made to his store in the
rear, which, when finished will be a
decided as well as most useful en
largement. This new room will be
elegantly fitted up for an ice cream
parlor for the use of his gueBts.
This is a neat, as well as necessary
arrangement, and we congratulate
our friend upon his extending back
wards..
Easter Cards.
The custom of sending Easter
Cards originated in this country. It
was started by a number of literary
people in Boston, who wrote verses
appropriate to jaster and sent them
to their friends. Artists illustrated
the verses, and it was not lone be
fore the fancy of the Boston public
was caught and Easter cards became
a fashion,' a custom and a business.
Spreading rapidly through Massa-
cnusetis ana graauaiiy mrougn we
rest, ot the country, the new custom
then leaped over the ocean and cap
tured the Hiiiglish. so quickly was
the business developed over there
that some of the prettiest printed
cards sold in this country are lm

The Athletic : a-LDB. Rooms Anothr
Attraction fob Asheville.
A number of the young men of our city
have, as we have already stated, organiz
ed the Asheville Athletic Club, and they
have leased the third floor of the Powell
and Snider Building, formerly occupied
by the Citizen, which has been divided
into three rooms, handsomely arranged
and furnished. One will be used for a
reading room where the best periodicals,
papers, etc., wm oe regularly kept and
where members can while awav a olras-
ant hour when opportunitv will permit.
Another has been well arrnneed with
suitable appointments for athletic exer
cises, where the members, when fatigued
wim urain worn an aav, can spend an
hour or more in the evening in iudinimiR
and beneficial physical exercise such as
all sedentary people should take daily.
we regard this as a most useful institu
tion, and are pluased our youug men
have established it. We heartilv wiah
our friends all success.
Shelby Park a Section whioh. pro
mises TO BE ONE OF THE MOST ATTBAO
tivb ih our Growing City Lots be
ing Rapidly Taken.
A few days ago Messrs. J. C. Bostick,
one jf Shelby's progressive young men,
and ti. D. Blanton, one of Marion's ener
getic citizens, with an eye to business
which has already given them an estab
lished reputation, came to Asheville,
and. with but little narlavincr
and purchased about twantv t nt
beautiful city property, lying on South
Bailey street, and extending to the pro
perty of Messrs. Penniman adjacent to
the PwJrRiipan Avenue. (Town branr.h
street) 'iriing from5outh Main to the
new depot. It is a handsome piece of
property, and though several thought
they paid full enough for it, they have
not only been offered a large advance
apon tost for the whole, but, since
division of it, have already sold lota
which sustain well their faith and trood
judgment.
Messrs. Bostick and Blanton whom
we might appropriately designate the
"Busy BV secured the services of
Mr. John G. Aston as eneinaer. whnas
skill has developed a plat of a most
attractive and what is destined to become
one of the most popular sections of our
city for residence purposes and which
has been happily named Shelby Park as
complimentary to the former home of
Mr. Bostick. Streets have been extend
ed, and new ones opened notably
Blanton and Warlick and the whole has
been so arranged as to ofl'er sixty-nine
very handsome lots, all of easy access
and fine elevation. After being laid out
with Mr. Aston's usual care, accuracy
and good judgment, Messrs. B. & B. have
had a large force busily engaged in
widening, grading and extending the
streets, and since this has been done
several of the lota have been sold, each
taken at once upon statement of the
price. These gentleman do not intend
to hold these lots for fancy prices, Out
will sell them at their intrinisic market
worth. Parties desiring handsome resi
dence lots in a growing section of our
city should call on Bostick, Blanton and
Co. at once. Shelby Park will soon be
one of the most pleasant and popular
additions lately made to Asheville, and
we congratulate our city no less than
Messrs. Bostick and Blanton upjn their
enlargement of our metropolis.
This is Strictly Confidemtial.
There seems to be an impression
abroad that Blaine's visit to the In

airing nis boom along the route.
This is a mistake. It is to look after
those famous Little Rock and Fort
Smith bonds. Philadelphia' Chron'
Judge Clark sentenced a man by
the name of Walters last week at
Whiteville, N.C., to -io days inv
prisonment in the county jail and a
tine oi 91,000 for cursing and abus
ing Mrs. Washington Powell at her
own house in the absence of her
husband. His example and courage
in thus protecting helpless women
and punishing their offenders ought
to be follewed by other Judges, well
suggests the Launnburg Exchange.

their hands to sinful to sinful wo
men for one object, to secure enough

Miseries of the Rich.

would think the expression almost
a contradiction in terms, but it is not,

in sleep forgot their misery, but too
often the rich are tortured by sleep
lessness. 1 hey sutler from ennu:
"that awful yawn which sleep can
not dispel." The French financier
exclaimed, "Alas! why is there no
sleep to be sold!" Sleep was not in
the market at any quotation. Bacon
said that monev is "like muck not
much use unless spread." It is
nothing to him who does not know
how to use it wisely; and, on the
other hand, poverty is nothing when
it is not felt. If you mix with peo
ple better off than yourself you feel
poor; but it may be only by con
trast, for perhaps vou do not really
want more than you have.

It is said that Secretary Fairchild,

draw money from circulation, which
is needed in trade, favors the scheme
of going upon the market and buy
