Mayor Tbck of Milwaukee, who first bounced into fame as the editor of reek's Snn, snys he would n good deal rather toy with a paste pot and shears than with the gavel. With some men it is dif ferent. Fu'TiiKN Russian Nihilists have been arrested at I'uris, They cxcrimcntcd with dynamite near their homes and Oc troyed a nunilwr of trees. The polite took that for u view und run them to earth. It is a fact of deep philosophy that those who tremble now at what they call the "rclicl yell" of the icople who are honoring the memory of Gcycrul Lee at Richmond, never heard the no I yell at the front during the war. This is the New York World's opinion f"Col." Shcpard. Its a queer way they have of doing things in Persia. The Shah's favorite wife is blind. Two court physicians ree- inmcndcd that she lie sent to two famous H-ulists in Vienna, who have performed on her eves the delicate oicrntion of iri dectomy, receiving from the Shah $S,000 ir their services. In the mean time the iiurt physicians who recommended the iperation have been locked tip, and il the patient dies they will he put todenth. Gi:n. Lkk nt one time was very much bored by a Georgia man who had made frequent icrsonnl applications for a fur lough. One morning the General asked his tormentor if he understood the posi tion of a soldier. The latter said he did. lie was ordered to ..ssiimc it. Gen. Let then gave the command, "Right about face ; forward march." As he never gave the command "tolmlt"lhcGcorginnkcpt on marching antil he got tired. He did not get his furlough. A vai.i no corrcsKndcnt of Tim Citi zkn has a timely contribution to-dny on the fire alarm system. His suggestions are good ones. The city certainly paid enough money for the Gamcwcll system to secure good service and so far it has proven a most lamentable failure. It it time something was done and no doubt it will be. The system is a success in ither places where it is in use and there is no reason why it should not be in Asheville. OfH dispatches to-day tell of the liegin- ning of the work of the census in New York. The enumerators have by no means an easy thing of it. Kelmlfed at every hand they have only to grin and bear it. The police have instructions not to arrest anybody at their instiga tion and all they can do is to threaten the vengeance ol Stiieriiitciideut I'ortcr. Of course that will amount to nothing. In Asheville the enumerators arc also at work. No complaints have as vet been made. To-morrow nicht the first rcMirt will be submitted to Suiicriulcnd- ent llardwicke. N'kw York's nerve is phenomenal. When General Grant dird in lss.'i the city asked thcprivilcgeof having his body buried in that city and promised that thev would erect a monument to his memory. The request was granted but the monument was not forthcoming and now the city has announced their iniibil ity to raise the money and iclitioncd Congress to appropriate $!i0,ti(Miorthiil liuriiosc. New York wanted the world's fair and if this is the way it docs business, il is iierhaps better that it went to a city with enough push and enterprise to carry it through. IImaiistniikts for May 31 has the fol lowing editorial on the Interstate coin mcrce law : "The lack ol unilormity hi the railwav legislation of the country and the remedies thcrelor, were eousid crcd nt the convention of railway com missioners held at Washington this week A report on the subject was presented by the committee on legislation which was instructed to consider the matter nt the last convention. The committee took the simplest way nut of the difficulty by recommending that the mam Icaturcs ol the Interstate Commerce law lie mndc part of the laws of the several Stales and further, that laws lie enacted by congress securing uniformity in the vuri ous details of railroad equipment and management, with a view to the grealc safety and coinlorl of employes and the public. The plan proKised in the remrt seems to be the most natural and frusiblc one that can be suggested, and to involve also the least amount of derangement in conditions. It may Ik difficult to secure action of the kind promised in the imme diate future, but such action will hnvc to lie taken ultimately. The intention of the renders of Til Citizkn is specially directed to the notice ol the sale of the Alcxnnderestntciirinted in this issue. The sale will be on 20th of November next. This is probably the most desirable country property it west rrn North Carolina. It is situated or the famous French lirond river, only thirty minutes hv rail from Asheville, and abounds in beautiful building sites for suburban residences. Kend advertisement carefully.

Kdilor Citizen: On but one simile oc casion since the erection of the Gamcwcll lire alarm system has the correct number of the box been sounded, anil there must be something either radically wrong with the striking apparatus or else the system is defective in some other point, nnd as the cost of erecting this plant has been considerable would it not lie ndvisnblc inliiive this matter looked into thor- ouulilvr rrom iicrsonai oorrvuiion in this same system, as used in the larger cities ol this country, I know it to be as iiertect as can I expected, and II it inns Here, mere is sonieiiiinii wnms wmm should be looked into nt once. As guide I would suv that in giving an alarm the nrmaleur in the box must lie nulled down ns far ns it will go. An other suggestion I would make is that every day at 13 o'clock the of chief the tire 'department lie required to sound the niarm from a different box each iluv, thus assuring him self of the absolute correctness of the system. Someday the city gov. ruiiiFiit niav he colled noon to linv hravv dummies by reason of this present detective svttcm, nnd the small cxtcnsc it mnv now lie necessary to incur to re medy the evil would lie of infinite by smnll account ns compnrcd with future litiga tions.
