Detective Deaver succeeded yesterday in ascertaining the true history of the baby unearthed a day or ao ago, and which has created much excitement. It was a premature birth, brought on by severe illness of the mother. The foetus was taken by the father and another and buried, with no intent whatever to conceal a birth. They are deeply mortifi ed oyer tne exnumauon anu excitement. We have never known so mean malicious falsehooods told in any election as are now in circulation relating to the municipal election and matters connected therewith.

In re pairing the works a difficulty was found which had tended greatly to lessen the power of the street lights heretofore a fault not known and as this will also ' be remedied, we may expect in the "lature. better lights.

The Asheville Improvement and Street Railway Company Lake View Park--A Grand Ad dition to the attractions df our Metropolis. We are glad to learn from Mr. E. H. Buckman, who comes to Ashe ville for the purpose of investing money and greatly benfitting our community, sjme of the plans of the Company he represents, The Asheville Improvemont and .Street Railway Company. The gentlemen composing our Asheville Company are interested in a similar enterprise in Birmingham (Ala ) where they have many miles of street railway and a most attractive park in suc cessful operation. The inteution here is to establish a Park on the West side of the French Broad, above Tuhkeoskfe farm, land connect with Asheville by rail, crossing the river on an iron bridge in the vicinity of the depot. From the depot the street railway will probably run up the Town Branch and up Bailey street to Pat ton Avenue to an attractive little station at the foot of Battery, Park. The cars to be run on the road are made by the Pullhnan Co. and it is needless to say are perfect in all their appointments. The company has not yet decided whether to use electric or steam motors, but the grades in our mountain city are so heavy that some powerful means of propulsion are necessary. Oat at the Park the company will spare no pains to give the puolic every at traction. Engineere have been over the ground and find the location everything that could be desired for the purposes in view. The lake will be over a quarter of a mile long and several hundred yards in width, aim ocvciai uuuuiru yuiuo in wiutu, with boats and a boat bouse: a pa- vilion and small hotel will be built at once, aDd thecompany proposes letting out contracts for a num ber of small cottages to be erected by the coming season. We are gratified tonote the immediate pros pect of filling one of Asheville's greatest wants, a place ot amuse ment and entertainment, where our citizens can find recreation and our visitors another inducement to so journ amonst us.

To Hit Votert of Atlieville : The undersigned being of sound mind, twenty-one years of age, and of deposing memory, do hereby inform the public without regard to party that he was made a member, "by merest accident," of th nominating convention which on the 18th day of April, 1887, did nominate a municipal ticket to be voted for by thi lawful voters of the city of Asheville on the first Monday in May next. A word ol explanation right here may be in place, "so here goes." - The Advance, a daily paper published in the city of Asheville, whose politick some think are questionable, but 1 am of such liberal views that 1 do not take time to enquire who struck Billy Patterson, but always rush to the fallen hero, eonit time ago published a call for a mast, meeting for the purpose of nominating a Municipal ticket, in which call he invited white and blackjemourat and Republi can smarting under tbe probabilities ol what might turn up, supposing that the mass meeting might in its lioeral way nominate a colored man for. Mayor or Alderman, and knowing thatitfeuid foot .support such nominees, I. decided that 1. WouiifVsee the tun by edging into the convention amst keeping periectly quiet until i could feel WtJ.be riguts and li'terties of the old Anglo--Saxon race would be respected. "Agreeable UW.-- priee" when Col. Deake called the con vention to order to find the Court House packed fuller than I ever isaw it before of the best and most respected citizens oi Asheville, and as i scHiiuedtire meetinu 1 could see very clearly that the Anglos oa(i tne uiajomy. i tnen said to mv elbow comrade, ' tne country is safe, that we umst go to work." You all know the remit of tue meeting which nominated our Mayor and Aldermen that is to serve us the next two years. ibis convention nominated a ticket worthy of the ballott of every good citizen in our town, in is ticket was put forward by the mass meeting and not o-y any particular partv. and 1 for one call upon every citizen to go to the polls next Monday and do His duty by deposit ing his ballot for the whole ticket : and especially do I call upon those who par ticipateu in saia convention to stand to tbe nominee, unless they can show eood cauBrt why they should now desert it. If tony have good cause tell it out through the newbpaperv, so that we may all have light on the subject, and cast our votes intelligently. If ou have no gtod cause, tnen do your duty. ine candidate. J. M. uudtrer. named for Mayor, while not my choice, because i cad a mend who i would prefer, was some other tree man s friend, who put nis name lorwaru, received a majority of votes over all the other candidates, and it is my duty to support him; first, be cause he is Iho nominee; second, he is protioient; tlarJ, he is worthy of any of fice you can bestow upon him. me names of K. L. iitzpatnck. R. P. Wulktrand A. G. llalyburton are gen tlemen of high character and well wor thy of your support to say nothing of tneir Demur tne nominees or tins mass convention. Mr. Fitsparrick has proven his devotion to the best ' interests of Asheville by his persistent efforts in building up her waste places and invest ing his surplus earnings in her internal improvement. R. P. Walker may justly be called one of Asheville's most devoted sons, although he adopted this borne, yet he made sacrifices in leaving his beautiful city of Durham five veara ao and cast his lot among the then rough stones rtf a dilapidated town. Ha has shown a warm devotion to this moun tain city by pleading with capital all over tho land to come to Asheville for her produce, and in so doing he pays out annually one hundred thousand dollars lor tne product or tbe country. I say this nhowa his devotion to our town, be cause there are so many other places that he could carry his trade to. and he too is investing his surplus earnings in the improvement of city property. He is n christian gentleman and a total ab stainer of alcoholic liquors. He is be nevolent and charitable to a fault, and the freemen of Asheville could not be stow their s:ifl'raes on a more worthy gentleman. Mr. A. u. tiauuurton is well known to the business men of Asheville: but to those who may not kuow him I would atate that he is a model business man. well qualified to fill any position in the gift of hie constituents. He is a niau of very considerable ability and will dis charge the duties of the office with an eye singly to the best interests of the clt7 . .. These three candidates win serve vou n the capaoisy of Aldermen of vour citv for the next four years with dignity to themselves and honor to their constitu ents and pleasure to your city. To all the voters of Asheville I do most earn estly appeal tt come to the polls with the love ot our beloved town on your heart and deposit your ballot for the .nominee of the mass convention discarding every personal consideration mat me voice Ol the eople may be served. 10 the lub iringman 1 will State) tkat the tai'tlidates for Aldermen each and every on; have downed the diow bov harness many times.' while the spade. shovel and hoe was not a strange tool in their hands, u r are they strangers to the duty inev owe to their constituents. So lay axide vour prejudices and let us all pull together make one long steady pull aud we will land the; ship of state mastered by tbe men of our choice with Gudger for Mayor and Fitapatrick.
