WEST JJV.
Splendid views of the river and the
western mountains. lTiees range from
two hnndred dollars up to six thousand.
Some fine lots at $500, $000, $7oo $8oo
and fl.ooo. Some larger and mo de
sirable still at $l,ooo to $3,ooo.
A few very choice lots on the crown of
tue mil, bouth side iiinlwooa street and
Kast side Park Avenue. These lots can
not be duplicated, and whoever secures
one will have an investment that is good
lor an rime.
Projected English Colony in
Roane County.
The projected English colony of
thirty or forty families, who desired
to settle at or near Kingston, is like
ly to fail on account ot inability to
obtain land at a reasonable price.
But the prospect of obtaining the
necessary amount of land fifteen
hundred acres south of the river,
six or eight miles from town, is good,
and that section will most likely se
cure the colony. Kingston East
Tennesseean.
A Realistic Description.
Gen. Phil aheridan has given to
the world a good many of what Bret
Harte has termed the sabre cuts of
speech, and his icmark that "there
is a good deal of shooting around in
the woods" before the opening of
the battle in the presidential cam
paign, describes the situation with a
vigorous realism that leaves nothing
to be desired. Providence Journal.
T1EMOVAL!
Having removed my shop to North Main street.
No. 25J, one door north of Lindser 's tin Bhop, I
am now fully prepared to do all manner of work
in repairing Guns, Pistols, Locks, Trunks and
Valises. Give me a call. Look out for the big

ASHEVILLE, N. C.
We think an apology is due our pa
trons and the publishers of this paper
for the long time our last "ad." has
been permitted to run. Absence from
the city during the two weeks just
past must be our excuse. Our ab
sence, however, has not lessened the
number of bargains to be had at the
"Racket Store," as we find upon our
return quite a lot of new and desira
ble things, chief among those for la
dies being a beautiful line of Alexan- j
der Kid Gloves in all the best shades,

they can be matched for $1.50 in
Asheville. Also another lot of those
elegant woven corsets at 8Gc, guaran
teed to equal anything in town fo:
l.f0; only see them before you buy.
Get the boys a new plush cap, and one
f our new Toboggans for the little
iris. There is much cold weather
ahead of us yet. Wc have still an
other lot of rubber goods in gossam
ers, shoes, Arctics, mens' coats, boots
and hats. We arc selling a line of pa-:
per-bound novels, all the standards,
at 12c. per volume, the regular 25c.
book. The first hundred are nearly
gone, but more are coming. We are
offering some marvelous bargains in
blankets that we do not want to carry
over. They were cheap at first the
are cheaper now. We want to put the
money they represent into spring
goods, and if you expect to buy a
blanket in the next twelve months
now is the time to do it. We have a
job in "Dickeys," if you know what a
Dickey is: One turn-down collar,
one standing collar, one pair of cuffs,
and a sham shirt-bosom, all for 10c.
Either collar is worth the money
nice goods, and for less than you can
have the goods laundered. Come and
see them. Our Headquarters bought
a big lot and sent us these ; we cannot
replace them. They are worth twice
the price where they were made, but
they go to show what cash can do in
the Auction Room. A new lot of tin
chamber setts, umbrella stands, coal
scuttles and household-using things
at "Racket prices," guaranteed to be
lower than anywhere else in town.
Plated knives and forks at half the
prices these goods are usually sold
for. Our stock h;is been replenished)
we have a store full of goods, and wc
guarantee that no single article can
be matched in Asheville for the same
money. Come and see.
