To Hold Guests,' Asbev il lo dered. is Yesterday morning the folio; dispatch was received: - , ' ."Windsor Hotel. ) jACKsonviii,,'FiA., April 5. j S. WT Battle, M. D-i Ashevilltz , Reported -' &eraUeryTark IIo lel is closed on account of epid C. Rcbixs-:;." . Were some one to nt3rt a repc . . that yeIlo"v "'.'fever f bad ; complc' possesion f Jackfeonv:Ile; St. At gustine and' other Florida yoinU , and all people upon whom the di -ease had notTasTeednaeirEa'd fiet! the! SLate 'there would be as much sense and truth in it as there U ia theaboyo report in Jacksonville abouVAsheville, no more nor ' less. gross.y untrue, but as grossly want ing in reason, not a scintilla of a circumstance having occurred to justify the siarting or circulation of the report That it is on heard in Jacksonville lends a'n additional suspicion to it; that it has not been heard of nearer home, and fails so utterly to materialize at. home, stamps both the rumor and fixes the motive. It is about time for the visitors in Florida o begin their Northern journey. Asheville is rapid!-, throughits splendid inter mediate climate, its unequalled scenery, its superb hotel accommo dations, attracting them to this Land of the Sky. A few more days delay will add that much to Florida income; and only by such wicked reports as the above can that stay be prolonged. Now as to facts: There is no epi demic in or near Ashevilla; there has oeen no epidemic in or near Asheville ; instead of hotels being closed tor any cause, new onts are being rapidly opened to accommo date the crowds of people who are coming. The only epidemic our people or hotels fear is an overflow of visitors, mostly from Florida at that, beyond the opacity of the city or section to accommodate. All of our leading hotels and many boarding houses, now have, and have had for Beveral weeks, a much larger number of guests than were ever before in Asheville during the winter. Those who are here are satisfied and writ ing their friends at other places to hasten on here to enjoy not only the accommodations, but the brunt skies, the mild, balmy, pure, exhil arating atmosphere, the magnificent scenery. - - t Chexa. ioiighl.. people-. far Florida anaAsneyille too. Alt can ttiy with great comfort and delight in Asheville when they cannot stay in Florida; many go to Florida when they could with equal com fort and many advantages stay in Asheville. Let the visitors ail have the facts and the truth at all times, and take their choice ot .ducts; and Ashevillla will be entirely satisfied with lhe m ult. We fear no com parisouM at any time with any place: and it is only for want of in formation that people fail to come or stay away. Since writing the above we learn Dr. Battle returned the following answer to the above : "Hotel full. Asheville never healthier. It you desire accommo dations would suggest you tele graph. S. W. Battle." v (.THE GRAND LODGE Of the Sons of Temperance in Ses sion Last Night. The " hall of Asheville Lodge, Sons of Temperance, over Carmi chael's drug store, last night was brilliantly illuminated and beau tifully decorated, in honor of the kixteenth semi-annual session of tne urana Lioage oi eons oi Tem perance for the State of North Carolina.

Lumber. ' ; Mr. WetzVd, of the Unaka Timber Co., of Knoxville, v Tenn., was in the city yesterday looking after timber and mineral lands in West ern Carolina. This company owns the bulk of the timber lands in Yancey and Mitchell, and have purchased pome in Buncombe and Madison. This is one of the largest i-uujpaiuea oi tue kiqu iu tue coun try, and they own immense tracts of land in T ennessee and Georgia. ' 'Hake My Hat r . ; Mr. H. C.

This was more .than our Iowa friend could stand, and he exclaimed, "Herp, take my hat; the half about Western North Carolina has not been told." A Very Rare Opportunity, Indeed. Mr. J. J. Hill will offer lor sale on Tuesday, the 10th inst., eleven beautiful buildingsites in the vicini ty of the Northern Methodist church; to sDeak more exactly, on Ilav wood, Buttrick and Hill streets. Among the many good opportuni ties to secure a place ior a home, and constantly arising, this is one of the best, and those looking for 8tsch will heed the advertisement in this paper. It is a rare opportunity to make a ju.lioious choice in a very eligible part of the city. A Church for Victoria. The Presbyterians will proceed at oncfc to erect a commodious church in our elegant suburb, Vic toria, near the grounds of the Home Industrial School. The school will form a part of the new congregation and will attend the services in a body, and with the rapidly growing neighborhood will requite a seating capacity, ot three hundred. Two gentlemen interested in the school have offered 8700 upon condition thst Uio dbaah . ra'isea. $i,000 la response to this statement male from the pulpit last Sabbath morn ing over $800 was at once pledged and the full amount has since been guaranteed. The building committee consist ing of Rev. W. S. P. Bryan, Rev. I,. M. Pease, Messrs. A. Garrett, W. W. McDowell, N. R. Perry and H. T. Collins haye already met and taken steps for the immediate inception of the work. A Perilous Adventure. A few days ago Mr. John Z ich- ary, of Asheville, now in Transyl vania, had an adventure which might have cost him his life. He had been up in th mountains amongtheheadweters of Davidson's river fin connection with some tim ber contracts he i. filling. Startit g home, with a comp .nion, about twilight, his regular cour.-e would have been down the riv-r; but it was represented tohim'th it he would have to cross the stream half a doz-m times, in the dark, which was b tii difficult and dangerous, and was ad vised to take a trailway tin along the mountain side, safe and direct. He did so. Soon it became in tensely dark in the det p shadows of the mountains. The two rider? left the course to the intelligence oi the horses. The mountain side sloped very steeply, and Mr. Zach ary's horse lost its balance and fell towards the mountain, his hinder feet slipping over the ledge, which proved to be a precipice. Mr. Zach ary quickly threw himself from the Ba ld;e. and fell over a distance of 25 or 30 fett. lighting on his feet. -and sustaining only a few scratches and -bruises, lie heard his horse struggling overhead, and immedi ately above him. Moving to one side he bariely escaped the falling beast, which tumbled down on a narrow ledge. In its struggles the horse rolled over and fell again a distance of fifty or sixty feet, though not in perpendicular descent. He was also cut and bruised, but was in condition to be led home next day. It was a very narrow escape indeed for Mr. Zaohary.

Amtrican ' of January 19, 1888, says : Faith Church, at Broadway and Gay street, was filled last night with persons to hear the Rock Baad con cert by the Till famiry, The family are Miss Till, soprano ;' : Miss Annie Till, contralto, Mr. William Till, basso, and Mr. D. Till, tenor. They made excellent music on a number of curious and rare instruments. The four performers played popular airs, Scotch tunes, the Boulanger March, and other pieces, on sixty rocks of the hornblend variety, found in England, ranged like a key-board, in pefect tune and five octavoes in range. Mr. D. Till said his father began collecting the rocks long ago, and that the family had spent a leasuer time of eleven years tuning them. Each rock was tuned by chip ping up small pieces till the exact note was found. When tuned, no change of weather affects them in the least. They are struck lightly with little sticks, padded an one end with soft felt, similar to those used on certain kinds of drums. The music was wonderfully sweet. Mr. D: Till used an instrument . with strings drawn over a sort of rectangular hol low box, to give what he said was an imitation of chimes of Westminster Church, London, and Trinity Church. New York, but no chimes were ever heard as sweet. In playing the in strument he keeps it in motion all the time by swinging it over bis head, making the notes sound like tkose ef bells a long vrar off. . Other selections were a zither and Alpine viola duet by Miss Annie and Mr. W. Till ; tumbleronicon solo with zither accompanyment, by Mr. D. Till ; a waltz by the ocarina quartet, a polka by the gigilera, zither , and ocarina, crystal chimes and some songs. The couccrt was a very enjoyable one. The family are on their way South.

C. for the purpose of promoting inimi- frauon to ine ooutnern estates, ast of the Mississippi, particu lars of which we have heretofore published, has been postponed from the 11th inst. to the 25th inst. It would be well if the Pet ersburg chamber of commerce would send representatives to that meeting." Our cotemporary is right in its suggestion to the business men in its city, and the same course should be pursued by every southern city and community. If an early indication to this effect is made we have no doubt the southern railroads, under whose united auspices the movement is inaugurated, will give special rates. Let the meeting be such a one, by the presence of active business representatives of the growing South as to assure the railroad companies that any ef fort they may make to induce a good class of immigrants and capital to the South will meet with enthusiastic and earnest co operation on the part of the south ern people. It will be a most de lightful season to visit the moun tains, and Hot Springs, Asheville, W aynesville, Mendersonville in deed the - entire section if the members of ; the meeting could take time to visit it, will prove a revelation, a veritable wonder land of attractions and possibili ties to them all. Let every com munity and business association in the South send representatives; . and take sfeps looking to that ' end early so the roads can pre-' pare for them. 4 Landreth's Garden Seedsat Pelham'e ' -iicn't buy your new Drees Goods be fore i ricing at the cheap store of "- 1 Brbvabo & Blanton.
