Torrence, familiarly known here as Bill, famous as a worker in rock, and a layer of rock walls and well facings which never give way, has returned after quite a Ions absence in Alabama and Tenneesee where his well established skill found employment and compensation.

The Raleigh Afuvt- Olserier speaks of a new institution iuat organize.! m mat city as follows . '' The Medical Mission, as it is called, s one of the new teattures ol Christian work undertaken by the members of the Baptist labernicle, and is one that can not be too highly commended." The object is to furnish free rndicinf-s needed for those without means to b'.iy thetn. The plan is a very praiser. r rthy one. Speaking of the charge in the publica tion of the Alliance from morning to eve ning, the Xrvs-Cbs'rvcr says: There is hardly room in Asheville y t 'or two morning dailies, though tbe mountain metropolis is growing more rapidly tlian any other town in the Stale. It requires a population as great as anv city in North Carolina affords to support one creditable morning paper. There is truth in this. But the char acter of our population, composed so largely of those accustomed to the lux ury and convenience of a morning paper with all the freshness of the very latest news, made publications of that charac ter unavoidable. Such publications were in advance of the cavwitv the general public to stisuin U.'im, t'.nd the struggle has been a costly mid a trying one. But we have never j i-t dispalred, sure that the time would come when the daily morning paper would be a nec.-s-sity, not only to Asheville but to our neighbor towns. Por ttiesc latter, ins mail arrangements are not so satisfactory as we win. J. rains run convenient enough; but all trains do not take the snails. W e ope to have a not unrea sonable hope a double daily mail ser vice established. Af Entertainment 'For the Flower Mission wi!! ha given December 29th. The Thc&pians have consented to repeat the play "Nevada ' on the above date for onr benefit !n con nection with the short operetta by the children of "Gyp Jr." We hope it will be well patronized and thus help the Flower Mission in their work of Charity and encourage the Thespians in their efforts in the same direction.

Seldom if ever has a newspaper the pleasure of recording more auspicious nuptials than these. Where Sea Birds Get Water. The ofNasked question: "Where do sea birds obtain lresh water to slake he'1" thirst?" is probably correctly answered by old skipper, who says that he has frequently seen these birds far from any land that could furnish them water, hov erinir around and under a storm cloud, clattering like ducks oil a hot day in a pond and drinkingHh the drops of rain as they fell. 1 hey will smell a rain squall ioo miles, or ev en further, and scud for it with, aU most inconceivable swiftness.

It was not until 11:15 that Chairman Evarts who had been tapping for order ten succeeded in calling the convention of the Republican Club's to order. The election of delegates from each State for Vice-President and mem ber of the executive committee were then announced. When Gen. Na than Goff arose to make a nomina tions for West Va. long continued applause greeted him. Trouble arose over the selection of Alabama. There was only one representative from tiat State. He was Samuel R. Lawree, a colored, delegate. He would not take the responsibility of nominating these men. Mr. Everts then ruled that any State not feel ing ready to make its nominations could wait until action was taken in the State referrtd to. Nomina tions for President of the National League then followed : Sewurt A. Simons of Buffalo, in eloquent terms nominated James P. Foster, President of the New York Repub lican Club, fcr Presdent.

The finance committeea.of the two Houses of the Generfl Assembly held a special meeting to day to hear W. L. Royall, counsel for foreign bond holders on the debt question. There was much talk on the subject which was participated in by nearly eyer per son present. Mr. Royall asked that all action in the Coupon cases he suspended for thirty days, saying that during that time he would use his best efforts to prevent any Cou, - pons being presented in pay men for taxes; that he woukl go to Lon don and endeavor to get English bondholders to scale upon terms satisfactory to the State and that if bond holders refused the proposi tion he would resign his position as counsel. 1 he sentiment of the com niitteeas expressed by many of the memeers was that it would be use less for Royal, to undertake any negotiations which departed from the principles of the Kiddleberger bill. A committee of three was ap pointed to prepare a resolution in relation to the matter to be pre sented at a joint meeting of the committees next Monday. :o: Two Old People Burned Up.
