Rev. W. W. Atkinson, ot Charlotte, is
in the citv.
The weather yesterday was as neai
perfect as we can have it in the summer
tiuie.
Dr. II. A. Costner of Chicago, a native
and former resident of the Old North
Slate, is at the Battery Park.
Bishop Northrop will conduct divine
services at St. Lawrence (Catholic)
cliiii-ch this morning at 11 o'clock. The
public invited.
Col. Thos. B. Keogh, of the Greensboro
ATorti Stale is in the city, stopping, with
his family, at Battery Park. Wo were
pleased to meet our friend.
Last week a gentleman came from Ca
tawba county for treatment for his wife
at the bands of Pre. Ilargan & Gatchell,
having seen their advertisement in trie
Citizen. It pars to advertise in the
CrriZKJf.
Rev. J. G. Sohaidt, lato pastor of the
Evangelical Lutheran church, Knoxville,
Term., will preach at the First Ba .tist
church this Sunday morning, and rastor
Dr. W. A. Nelson at night, at the usual
hours.
Mr. A. H. VanBokkleu of Wilming
ton, with Mrs. VanBokklon are at Mr.
A. T. Suiumey's, havii'g visited the Hot
Springs, and also the Wavnesville White
Sulphur. The health of Mr. Van B. is
about what it was when he first came up.
Rev, Jas. V. Fair, pastor of the Second
Presbyterian church of Charlotte, N.C,
will preach in the Presbyterian church
of this place this morning. The services
will be unusually interesting as tuo I'as-
tor Rev. W. S. P. Bryan will be regularly
installed Mr. Fair enjoys a splendid
reputation as a pulpit orator.
The Kuoxville Journal says:
" One of the needs of Knoxvillo now
is a new hotel, large enough to accom
modate all who may wish to visit our
beautiful city, and Cttpd tip with modern
appliances."
Never mind about this neighbor, tell
your visitors to come over to Asheville
we have the hotul accommodation they
would want, and they can run over to
Knoxvillo every morning, attend to their
business, and return to their hotel in
this city at night.
The Transylvania Pioneer says :
" The Citizen takes us to task for pub
lishing the killing of forty-two rattle
snakes at one time in this cornty, as it
might deter peoplo from coming here.
That might be so; and we should have
stated that the place where they were
killed was an almost inaccessible region
in the mountains. These snakes are not
to be found elsewhere. Very few citizens
of this county, even among the oldest
inhabitants,haveeverseen a rattlesnake."
This is putting the incident in its pro
per relation We would not have the
mountain country stripped of all the sub
jects of adventure. We like to heat that
somewhere in the depths of tbo wilder
ness a bear, a wild cat or even a panther
might be found to give sest to a tour. In
these wilds a rattlesnake does not come
amiss, for it gives point to the big snake
stories so appropriate to the corner gro
eery or even the quiet fireside when the
hero of an ad venture returns to his
home What we objected to in the item
in the Pioneer was the impression con
veyed that rattlesnakes were lying about
looss everywhere in Transylvania.
The Allman House, Fkanklin, N. C.
One of the best hotels in the State,
where neatness, comfort, elegant fare
elecantly served, can always be found,
is the above housr at Franklin. N. C.
now under tne management of Mr. 8. P,
Bnttam. iliera is no more inviting
place in the country for a sojourn than
Franklin; and the fact is shown that it is
appreciated by the rapidly increasing
number of visitors And Mr. Brittain
gives to his guests such accommodations
as ensure satisfaction,' and induces pre
longed slay. The Allman House has
been crowded all the summer, so we are
informed.
We are now receiving our fall import,
ations, and goods especially selected from
leading makers. All are invited to ex
amine our large and varied stock re
plete with the latest novelties and fancv

William Gooch, sentenced to the
cenitentiarv for twenty years for the
killing of Mr. Cheatham in Raleigh,
has escaped.
Judge Hall yesterday was thought
to have slightly improved, a change
which was gladly haned by many
anxious mends.
Knoxville wants a soap iactory.
We have thought for some time she
needed one. 80 much lye ought
not go to waste.
The Charlotte Chronicle calls an
attempt at ourglary "a midnight
Silhouette." We feared we would
set down to this sooner or later.
Federal aid to education is evident
ly not needed in the Charlotte pre
cinct. State Treasurer Bain advises slier
iffs of the State to make np further
arrests of drummers selling or otter
ing to Bell without license until after
the JNovember term of the Uederal
court at Raleigh, but to take the
names of all such for possible fu
ture ase.
Chedister has declared his inde
pendence. Yesterday afternoon the
Lone Star flag wits flung to the
breeze. The Star six feet from
point to point was a mere twinkler
way up yonder; but the broad
stripes were not dimmed in splen
dor. It is a Washington nag.
The Brevard Pioneer says : "We
are informed by those who profess
lo know, that ."bile the corn which
was overflowed in the late freshet
has been damaged considerably, yet
seasons have been so very favorable
that twice as much will be made
this year as last, notwithstanding
the damage by water."
The Franklin Press gives the fol-
lowirg : "Tn removing Mr, J
Johnson s old wooden store house
last week, the workmen found be
neath the floor a Spanish coin a hun
dred and sixty-four year old."
Uncle Jack lost this coin when he
and it were both young. We are
glad he has recovered it.
The Salisbury Watchman says:
"There is no market in the State,
that, for an abundance of things to
subsist upon, will excel ours. We
have everything, Jof everykind that
other people have, and more be
sides." Yes, and as many hand
some women to the square yard as
any place we have ever known.
The many friends of Miss Nellie
Moreland will be pleased to learn
that she has returned to Asheville
for the summer. She is accompa
nied by her handsome, intelle
gent cousin, Miss Annie Raphael of
Mobile, Alabama, and by Mr. and
Mrs. Wylie of the same ci'y. Thev
are stopping with Mr. W. T. Reyn
noldson Woodfin street. We hope
their visit will be a plesent one.
Henry O. Marcy, M. D , of Bos
ton, Mass., President of the Cliraa-
talogical Bureau of the Internation
al Congress to meet soon in Wash
ington, D. C, was in the city a day
or two ago. Dr. Marcy wrote a
paper some time ago which he read
before the American Medical Asso
ciation, afterwards published in
pamplet form, on the climate of
Western iHorth Carolina, This pa
per was the direot result of a per
sonal investigation of the climate
and country the author having
traveled this portion of the State on
horseback and in carriage. We
hope that some of the foreign dele
gations may come up to the moun
tains to see what we have here in
the way of climate, scenery and
real estate.
The Lenoir Topi$ says: "At a
"Bazar" held in Asheville, last
week thei e Avas an election held an
to who was the most popular law
yer, doctor, young lady, &o, &c.
Our old friend joe Adams carried
off the honors as the most popular
lawyer. Joe would nave gotton a
nice vote oh the gcore of good
looks, too, if they had voted on the
question, notwithstanding that he
and Judge Graves are not consider
ed particularly handsome by cer
tain persons in Mitchell county."
The prize in this instance was a
handsome peacock, with a magui
ficent spread as to tail, and it was
not only the good looks ot Mr. Ad
ams which elicited the large major
ity ne received, but the well known
fact of his proud ness thereof. Friend
Jae spreads his peacock tail now
with evidentsatisfactiort.

A Sad Death; "
Mrs. Louise, wife of Wm. M. Dickson,
Esq , died yesterday -afternoon at 4:2?,
after an illness of. . two weeks. Mrs.
Dickson -was a native of Sumter county,
S. C, and is a step-sister of Mr. James
Carson of this city. The death was quite
unexpected nntil - Friday night, and is
peculiarly sad in that she had been mar
mad not quite a year. . ;
The deceased was a graduate of the
Asheville Female College of the cla3s of
1885, and was a member ot the Presby
terian church. ' ' ' -
Funeral arrangements are deferred,
awaiting the ariival of Mrs. Dickson's
father. Announcements will be made at

Fancy Pbices fob Asheville Lots."
The Raleigh Biblical Recorder says :
" No town in North Carolina can. for
any considerable length of time, sell its
town lots at jNew York prices. That is
what they are doing in Asheville. A
friend told the writer that a former Ral
eigh man recently made $21,000 in a trade
tor a small lot. Another told him of a
lot fifty feet square that sold for $25,000.
Hurrah for the western metropolis!"
How do you know that prices will not
be maintained ? The fact that prices are
maintained and even advancing is ju-t
as easy to be recop nized, as it is to predict
a collapse; and far more just to consider
the fact, and let that fact stand for itself.
than to endeavor to bring about the
collapse The owner of a spot of ground
in New York,2S by 37J feet, recently re
fused $700,000 for it. Of course our Re
corder friend would say the party refusing
was a 1001. 1 et it was his own property,
he was on the Mot. and doubtless knew
quite as well as the editor aforesaid its
value, in dollars a d cents, either as a
marketable article or to himself. It is
just so in Asheville. Our prices do not
yet approach New York prices, we regret
to say, but the people who own their pio
perty, and those who come here to btiv.
are entirely capable of judtiina of its
value. .No property 111 Asheville has
sold for i's full value yet, even now, and
not a piece has been bought that could

it not just as easy, aye more just,' to re
cognize the fact of the fcri'l erowth of a
city of the State, thongs we would not
leel disposed to encourage it, tbar to
predict calamity, and thus, 60 far as the
insinuation can go, do much, possibly, to
stop that growth ? Asheville is g.owina,
friend, aud nothing can stop her. We
canii'it help being somewhat surprised
at the seeming animus of such articles as
the above, aud to fail to s?e the occasion
for such.

iishedin Hillsboro by Ex -Solicitor
N. Strudwick,ind ex-Senator C.
E. Parrish, talont enough, we ass
sume, to guarantee a good paper
aim a most important aul to the
Democratic party.
.mi. - . . .
a ne paper comes to us with a
name strangely homelike for years
past and parcel of ourselvep. Every
feeling and every wish are enlisted
in the success of the enterprise.
Well Said.
The Hendersonville Times says :
"In last week's Times mention was
made of the new enterprise of Messrs
C. J. Edney and John Delvaux in
the planting of a ineyard. Since
then we have learned that others in
that neighborhood purpose doing
hkwise. and it 13 vcr probable that
in a few years many acres in this
section will be -devoted to the vine.
There can be no risk in the business,
because any one, however, inexpe
rienced he may be, can gather
grapes and press out the juice,
whiiji can he sold to wine makers
at good prices in the unfermenled
state. If every firmer would plant
a vineyard, and give it a .reasonable
amount of attention, he would soon
find himself in possession of a mon
ey product of more value than his
corn, wheat, and oat crops com
bined."
Cat-t. Atkinson's Exhibit.
Mr. J. F. Patrick, Commissioner
of Agriculture, has addressed us the
following letter which must be exa
ceedh,gly gratifying to the party
principally concerned, and also to
the section which enabled Capt.
Atkinson to make fine an exhib
it: I want to say that the exhibit
made by Capt. Natt Atkinson of
your city last week at the Grange
Encampment was the finest display
of giain and grasses that I have ever
seen at anySfate or on any occasion,
and I hope that your people will in
duce Capt. Atkinson to exhibit his
collection at a number of fairs. It
certainly should be exhibited at the
Atlanta Exposition and also during
the State Fair and at the Pennsyl
vania State Fair which convenes in
Philadelphia from tlin 4th to the
16th of September, and it will cer-
tainly pay the people of your coun
ty to have Capt Atkinson make the
exhibit. Yours very truly.
