No mails since Monday with our scissors idle, it is a little difficult to edit a paper. Real estate has been moving in Ashe ville during the past two weeks along the streets. The beautiful residence of Mr. A. J Lyman, on Merrimon Avenue, is nearing completion. An Elegy on a Muddy Pavement at tracted considerable attention and in terest in our city yesterday.

We hear that the Operetta of Red Rid ing Hood will be reproduced next week. We sincerely hope the next entertain ment will not have such weather to contend with. Our subscribers at Peek post oflice, Madison county, and Turnpike, complain of not getting their papers. We do insist that post masters and route agents give more attention to these matters There must be gross carelessness somewhere. Water-mains are being extended from tl e corner of Charlotte down Chestnut to White Pine street.

Our people were delighted yesterday with one of tbe most brilliant showers o' rain of the season. For about ten min utes the performance held a yery large audience spell-bound, so to speak. It cooled tbe atmosphere, and had a rather pressing enect upon tbe dust. It did good. Solicitor J. M. Moody returned from Madison Court yesterday. The only im portant case on the criminal docket was that of Pinckney Knox, colored, charged with burglary witn tne intent to commit rape. He plead guilty to an assault with intent to commit rape, and was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. Messrs. Morphew and Kum bough were assigned by the court to the defense, Solicitor Moody represented the State. Judge Montgomery ia dispatching busi ness with ability and energy. He is now engaged on tbe civil docket, and will pro bably be engaged all of tia and the next weer Our people and authorities are giving yery earnest and thoughtful considera tion to tbe graded school organization, The moat important step in this enter prise will be the first taken, and upon that will depend to a very large degree the success or failure of the school.

If this school ib made a success it will be worth very much more than it will cost, in many respects, to our city, we, and 0111 people, are very anxious to see it start out Vltk the very best foot foremost.

Owing to delays, the druggists failed to reach the city until a late hour last night, some sixty-odd coming in on the Spartanburg Jttoad.

They are certainly fine, and we will turn lhein over to Messrs. At kin son & Sons for the grain and grass ex hibit to-day. Our excellent friend Tsra el always has something good, regardless ot the weather. . ; Scrape off thk Mud. We suggest again, and do so at the urgent solicition of a large number of our citizens, that the mud on Main street and Patton Avenue be scraped off now before it becomes compact. It is certainly offensive, as mud or dust, for its smell as mud, or inhaling it as dust, is not only offensive, but may be otherwise seriouslv objectionable. Scrape off the mud, and save us now and hereafter. Adding to the Display. Mr. V. I-. Norman. - representing Mesrrs. Hall & Kuckel, importers and manufacturers of medicines, has added to the splendid display being made of druggists' goods, etc., in the court room, alluded to yesterday. And Mr. Norman has contributed to the display most handsomely. The whole affair is most attractive, and the druggists, physicians and the ladies especially are invited to call and examine. There being.no room for further addi tion in the court room, Mr. S. Bryant, representing Messrs. Powers, Taylor & Co., wholesale druggists of Richmond, has opened an elegant display in a room at the Swannanoa Hotel. Be sure and call down, and examine. Jumped the Track. A freight car, attached to-the in- com Dg train on the Murphy Divis ion, jumped the track yesterday near Hominy, and ran across a trestle cn cross-ties before the train could be stopped. It was a right lively jolt. and a narrr iescapa.but no damage was done.'a'ifd nobody was hurt The Trains. There was no train from the east yesterday. The train from Spar tanburg readied here after ten o'clock jast night, loaded with pas. The trains from and to the city in and from all directions will be on time to-day. The Festive Fly and its Enemy. Fly paper is a mean invention which does grievous injury to the tender and confiding nature of a fly. Being moist and soft and sticky, it appeals to him as being something good to eat. Alighting he gets one foot mired and doesn't like it.1 Nothing but complete lreedom of movementj satisfies an American fly. . Ho beats the air with his wi- gs and tails to get loose. A hap py thought strikes him. He uses the other hind leg to pry out the first, and gets that le into trouble Ihen he thinks it he puts down his two middle legs and pushes real hard, something will break loose. The experiment is a failure. He then yells lor help, and other flies come to his rescue. They interlace legs and pull, but find the fly still fast. Then they roll him on his back, thinking he may be easier in that position, but he is anchored firmer than ever. Then they ask him to remain just where he is un til after luncheon, and not get stuck up any more, and then they go off and forgot all about him. He re mains feebly gesticulating with his two remaining legs, and finally gets tired and abandons himself to death. Subsequently the papfr is thrown into the hack yard, where a tomcat steps on it, and it takes him a week to comb the flies and pith out of his fur. - - CXRTirr Having used Pelhani's Blackberry Balsam on two occasions for derange ment of bowels and found instant relief from it.

Norfolk Va., Aug. 2, 18S7, Crops are said to better in North Cat olina tins year, than ever, before al most and farmers are of course highly elated over these bright prospects.

Last winter our progressive towns man Col Joe Branner, proprietor of the Ashevill i Greenhouses, snt to eastern Carolina and procured some regular lull-blooued collard seed. Collardsdown in that coun try grow anywhere from five to seven teet tall, and whole families can subsist not only under but on the branches thereof. Mr. Branner's anxiety to secure those things which stand highest as vegetable lood plants, prompted him to get these collard seeds. He sowed them in his green house; when they were about three inches high he trans planted some to two-inch flower crocks, with just about two square iaches of Buncombe soil as nour ishment. They were placed out in the garden where they could get the earlier and latter rains, tne dews of Heaven and the sympathetic rains ot a Julv sun. The plants flourished and fattened upon that Buncombe soil, hut when they had reached the modest height of about tvEcjirvpne-half reel tuey iiautu, JTtjSjl ?Kcn oats," so to speak, and -Te!lup j 11 I round out. and turned out to be as pretty white, hard, round cabuaee heads as one could want, weighing at this time about four or five lbs. Mr. E. L. Brown, at Sawyer's. (who came from the east himself,) is axniDitinff one ot these collard- cabbages withgreatdelight, as show ing what Buncombe soil will do if given a fair chance. When it comes to turning an eastern collard to a mountain cabbaere he thinks the principle of evolution is getting in its best licks. Mr. Branner, while disanuointed in Lis collard experiment, is rather fascinated with his cabbasre luck. and visions of a mew and. possibly. unodorous grade of kraut please him in his dnams. He hits always thought there was a missing link somewhere in the kraut business. and he thinks the cross between an eastern collard and a mountain cab bage will supply the link. lxi. Williamson submits this problem': if two square inches of Buncombe soil will make a five pound cabbage outofacollard,what would a whole acre of our soil pro duce?

The Earthquake in Kentucky The - Earth Sinking. , - I By telegraph to the Asheville Citizen. CnicAGo, August 3. A Times spe- cial from Evansville, Ind., referring to the sinking of the land in Trigg county, Ky., si.ice the earthquake Monday night, says : A bout mid night everybody was awakened by a sharp shock and had barely jumped ty thair feet when Uie earth with a phasing dizzy motion sua denly sank. 5 feet carrying houses and terrified darkies with it. Scenes that ensued baffle description. The ncgross fell on their knee and in frenzied ; tones "'prayed the Lord would save Jthem." Others began shouting and praising the Almighty ever and anon casting- upward glances to see if chariots of fire were pot descending. Added to tins pan demonium whs intense darkness which prevailed, the moon being completely obscured by heavy black clouds, which hung very low and like a pall over tne doomed dis trict. Rumblings were heard from depths below which gradually be came louder and numerous. Springs hidden lor years sudden iound opening and began to bubble up ward in constantly increasing streams. Ihe terrined inhabitants not pausing for household goods or chattels, gathered 'heir offspring and rushed away Irom the doomed spot, and some of them are still put ting as much distance between them and the sinking land as possible. Loss of property incalculable. A targe area oi corn and tonacco is a total loss. The Cherokees Elect a Chief. Br teWraph to the Vsheville Citizen. 1 Chicago, August 3. An Indian territory special. says: Late returns from the etcction for Chief of Cher okees indicate that Maveshas beon chosen over Bunch by a small ma jority. Joel B. Mayes, the newly elected chief is one-quarter Chero kee and belongs to an illustrious family. He was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Cherokee na tion tor a number ot year, and is an able and distinguished man. Sam'l Smith, who was elected assis tant chief, is a full blood Cherokee. The triumph of Maves will com pletely change the political situai ion of the Cherokee country. Bushy- head and Bunch have held the office for years, and have shaped the poli cy of the Cherokee nation, regard less of the wishes of the masses. The official machinery was uuder their control, and ther deleat is regarded as almost miraculous. Mayes is liberal and progressive and is pied!- ed to reform. He is cho-cn for a four year term. .-o: Inman Buys Georgia Central. By telegraph to the Asheville Citizen. 1 New York. Aug. 3. Reports of the sale to John H. Inman of about 10,000 shares Georgia Central stock are confirmed by the head ot the syndicate which bought Central of the property at the last election. It was stated on tne street that tne sale was the result of trouble in the syndicate and that the stock was sold at very low figures. At the of fice of Inman it was stated be left the city Friday last, and would be gone about one week; but his bioth er confirmed the report of ths sale. He said "Mr. Inman has bought a aree block of the stock but what price was paid and who tne seller is I do not feel at liberty to say." Only members of tbe syndicate in this, city to-day deny that the syn dicate has gone to piece?, but state instead that Inman has simply bought an interest in it. The de parture of the vice-President H. B. H-ollin8 for Europe last week is as serted to have been cauitd simply by a desire to avoid the worry con sequent upon the complications in the syndicate. It is said the main cause of uneasiness is the proposed action of the Savannah, Dublin it Western Railroad which has decid ed on paralleling the Georgia Cen tral from end to end, ano vesteiday succeeded in placing (5,000,000 in bonds in Europe to be used for. Mint purpose. The Company now lias 180 miles completed an.l ils -ntire line will be finished ins de i'f IS months. Market Reports. By telegraph to the Ashtvilie Citizen. St. Loins, Au.-ust 3.
