gives an unbroken view tnrougn
paxt of North and South Carolina
and Georgia. The-dietance from
the foot of the mountain to the top
in an air line is three miles, by
rail 11 miles. The grade is 1G0
feet to the mile. At Mud Cut the
road can be seen at five different
points, the lower track being 900
feet below. Just above Kound
Knob the road can be seen at sev
enteen different points, and a view
of the track , also 150 feet below;
the distance being only If miles
by rail from the hotel. In passing
over this track, which makes per
fect horseshoes, one gets four dif
ferent views of the hotel.
The fountain at Round Knob is
said to be one of the highest in the
world. When turned on in full
force it , will-throw water to the
height of 262 feet, twice the height
of. the hotel. It usually plays
from 150 to 175 feet. The water
is brought from a tank 1,000 feet
above in a 0 inch pipe. A rainbo

a winter resort for pleasure seek

This inn is open during the winter
months at the rates of $10 per day.
The church is the most interesting
building at Biltmore. It is an ele
gant cross-shaped structure, not
showy but grand.. It is Episcopal
in denomination, and is said to be
model of Trinity-church. in New
York. A square open dome about
30 feet wide and 50 feet high runs
up from the floor bf the auditorium.
The upper part is slighted by win
dows from the main center. Each
of the four wings of the building
adds about 30 feet square to the
main auditorium,-and from each of
these wings are doors opening into
four rooms. The pews are cush
ioned with green plush and have
hassocks of the same. On each
side of the southern wing, which is
elevated about two feet higher than
the other wings, are two gilt or
gans in front of which stand two
groups of white-robed singers, who
file into their positions -from the
rooms, responding to' the splendid
music -of the organs. The choir
dress in black with white robes and
small black caps. The audience
takes part in the services. Van

choir, also furnishes carriages

How in a by days would it take

Or, again: "A snail, climbing

five feet every day, and slips down
four feet every night, how long will

Or, again: 'A wise man, having

This is a catch question in geome

As. to the two former, it is scarce

in that vicinity have quit (work In
answer to a call to assemble for the
"burial of Satan,"L.who, they say,
has just been convicted by a" jury
of twelve angels and sentenced o
everlasting burial in this place.
To se people have been holding
a revival meeting in the town, and
-a. m i it . t
as a result or a collection tney
bought a bell to adorn their church.
It was upon the' first ringing of
this bell that some of them said
they;! detected the! announcement
that!; the burial of Satan was at
hand and that the ringing must be
kept up continuously. The ringing
has since been kept up and the col
ored people have been thrown into
high pitch of ; fervor, in which
they forget all things of earth and
rave like lunatics, j I
Every day the number of the de
votees is being added to from the
surrounding country, and the result
is that the cottonj is standing ii -picked
in the fields' while this wild
demonstration is in progress. The
attending colored ministers saj they
have attended the court of heaven

' A few days ago a notoriou9'white
convict escaped; from the peniten
tiary farm on Roanoke riv r. , It
now tums out that he connived with
a State guaid for his freedom The
convict was known as John J)oe,
alias Forest M. Rivers, i The guard
was J. E Kinney, a white roan,, and
a Republican, who! became. a guard
under the new. regime..
!; Doe; promised Kinney $500 to al
low him to escape, which amount
he was to send the guard as soqn as
he reached hie home in Leaven
worth Kansas, j The guard not Wnly
'allowed Doe to escape, but I am in
formed that he also loaned him
money. When Doe reached Hand
some, a small station on the Sea
board Air Line, be wrote bac
Kinney, and the letter fell intd
handi of the Superintendent.
In that letter the statements com?
promised the guard, and he then
admitted the truth of it, and was
at once dismissed from the service
of the! State f .. J ' I '
