AND Asheville Detectives in Close Con versation With Strangers AVho are They ? Gathered together around a table, in one of the second fljor room3 of th'j o.jty hall building last night, a group of four men were conversing in undertones, and the bull's-eye 1 lantern upon the table gave a yellow and subdued light upon the group and objects in the room. A Citizen reporter who was on his last rounds for tho night, look ing for any stray item that might be afloat, noticed ths light from the room above mentioned while stand ing on the corner of north court square. Thinking that something unusual wasup, arid knowingjposis ttvely that certain investigations were pending in this. city, the rei porter hurried across the interven ing street in a very short space : of time. Gaining the head of the steps in tho city hall, he knocked at tha door of the room in which he hid seen ihe light, bat no response to ths rapping was made. Again, and again, he sought entrance, but no entrance did hs secure. His mind then reverted to the Steen-Rouclere mediums, and he , wondered wij,hin himself, whether or not their spirits had arriyed and were locked up in that room for safekeeping for further reference or use. The re porter kept quiet; he couldn't make a noise to save hi3 Sue, and the beads of perspiration stood upon his forehead like rows of buckshot In a few moments, however, he heard sounds emanating from the interior, which no doubt belonged to spirits of a very earthly order, aatl then the reporter listened for all he was worth. Next he peeped through the key hole and saw the scene de scribed above. At the head of the table sat W. H. Deaver, chief of the Pinion Detective Agency,.and at his left was seated Chas. J. Harkins, Deaver's rlghl bower. Immediate ly in front of them sat two large, sharp-eyed, hawk-nosed strangers, with beards almost covering their entire faces. That the latter were in disguise, was evident from their ap pearances. A map or drawing was spread out on the table between the men, and they were intently inspec- ASHjEYILLE XRERA HALL fey f iCf-" ' V J KOUCIiERE. I ARE NOW OX SALE AT JAS. ting it3 lines, creeks and strips of fores'3. Deaver was m his shirt- sleeves, and tne two strangers hid their hats pulled down c'ossly over their foreheads. All at once, ono of the strangers exclaimed "If Bingham is not in that locality, I'll never put my foot on North Carolina soil agiin!" The reporter's eye3 and ears were wide open now, and when DeayeT said, "Well, I'll take your word for it, but I don't believe it," he knew that the detectives were again at work on the celebrated Bingham -Turlington murder case, which oc curred near Mcrrisville nearly one year ago. "But I tell you, he is hid in these mountains. He owns land in this section, and I will go oyer eyery inch of ground between the Smo'y, mountains and Chattaloochee river and I'll find him." f "It seems to me that we have ;ot Bingham dead to right this tinie," remarked the second stranger de tective, "and for my part t ay will ing to take the job."" . And then a photograph of Bing ham was examined and commented upon, and the contents of a suspi cious looking black' bottle were sampled; - ; -- Then Deaver broke out again with: "I will make alt the prepara tions, and we will try it again. This is the seventh trip we have made for Bingham, and I've about made up my mind that we 11 never find him. "I've worked up harder job3 than this," said one of the strangers, "and during my thirty-five years of de tective life I've made only three mistakes. Bingham is alive and in those woods!" A lull then occurred in the con versation, and the reporter again knocked at the door for admission, and this time Deaver came to the door. A , - 'Let me in," said the scribe. - "I cannot," replied the detective, "l am working up a 'grave yard' scrape; and I will tell you about it when I come back." . Where are you going . inter rogated the reporter. - '"I am going trout fishing in the Smoky Mountains before I get back," was the reply. . - And then he came out and walked with the reporter to the court yard gate. :: A':-' -A AA -V.'-';' A' .''--". The reporter went back to the room and waited untU thought he could hear somethir;' e about the secret caucus, bu -y thing wa3 as elm as death at endez .vous.

A choice collation was , partaken of at the close of the reception, and many hearty good wishes were extended Mr. Summey, for his success and prosperity ia his new home. Kotieo to Advertisers.

Our space costs us money, and we must and will charge for its use. All parties may expect to pay full tran sient rates for all "till forbid" advertise ments.

STEEX The Steens' and Rouclcrc at Opera House To-night, Asheville will have one of tjie lich- e8i,vtreatso'f the season to-nili$3s'&S; to-morrow night, in the shape of the marvelous Steens' the world renowned second-sight seers, and the latest European novelty, Mons. Rouelere, the great fantesieste. Wc can cheer fully recommend this attraction as being all that it is advertised, judg ing from the many complimentary notices we have seen from our ex changes. They have played in near ly all the principal southern cities to an immense run of business, and they certainly ought to duplicate their success at other place in Ashe ville. Mrs. Steen has battled the scientists in all parts of the world, and her powers of mind reading re main as yet a veritable puzzle which nobody can explain. She tells the age of any person in the audience, even to the day and hour they were born, and exactly what they are thinking about if they wish to know. The materialization of spirit forms is an other mystifying part of this superb entertainment. Mr. Rouelere, the famous fantesiest, is beyond doubt the cleverest artist in this particular line in America. He comes .direct from the Grand Hippodrome, Pari?, France, and this is his second season in this country. So deft are the seemingly impossible feats ac complished that one wonders how long one would have to practice to reach the perfection that this artist has attained. We would advise our readers to go to-night, and we can safely guarantee none will regret it, as this will be tho best company that ever has visited Asheville and we hope our citizeus will not fail to avail thcmself of seeing these woundcrf ully gifted people and give them a crowded house each night.

The Fourth at Sulphur Springs. The celebration of the glorious 4th at the Asheville Sulphur Springs to day will consist of a picnic, in which several parties from this city will participate. The Gun Club will in dulge in ball and pigeon shooting, and the day's festivities will close with a dance in the ball-room of the hotel at night with a brilliant display of fire works. Several society peo ple from the city will "trip the light fantastic" until the "wee snia' hours," and thus will end, perhaps, the only celebration of Independence Day, in Asheville and vicinity.

"Bishop Lvo Haid was conse crated bi.-hop at the Cathedral yes terday. He is an abbot of the Benedictine Order, and wears, in common with the Benedictines, a full, flowing beard. Cardinal Gibbons was the ceebrant of the mass and chief consecrator. He was assisted by Bishop Thos. A. Becker, of Savannah, and J. J. Kain, of Wheeling. The deacons of honor at the Cardinal's throne were the Rev. John R. Slattery, the head of the new St. Joseph's Seminary, and Father Celestine, a Benedictine, of North Carolina. The Rev. Richard Albert was deacon of the mass, and the Rev. Charles J. Judge, of St. Charles College, sub-deacon. Bishop John J.

D., of St. Mary's Seminary, read tiie Pone's bulls, one of which appointed Ab bot Haid Bishop of Messenia.in Greece, and the other making him Vicar Apostolic of North Carolina.

Next came Bishop- tdett Leo Haiti, attended by Bishops Bt-c.ke:- and Kain, and then came Cardinal Gibbons, the train of his red robe being upheld by two altar boys. Crowds of people attended the ceremony, which lasted from haif past ten a. n;. until half past two o'clock p. m. Every pew was filled and many per.-ons stood. The sanc tuary was beautiful with its white altar and statuary, and the light of the several hundred candles, with the sunlight in the alcove, produced a soft radiance that illuminated tho brilliant colors of the rich vest ments. Bishop elect Haid was conducted to the sanctuary, where, after as suming the vestments of white and gold, he was consecrated. The cere monies began with the reading of the papal appointments, followed by the vows and symbols of obedi ence, the anointing f the head of the elect with oil, his proffer of the symbols of wine, loaves and candles to the church and his receipt of the blessed crozicr, riflg, mitre and open Bible, with the command to go and preach. At the close he walked through the church, bestowing his blessing, while the Te Deum was sung by the choir. Among the clergy assisting were Mcnsignor James A. Corcoran, D.
