KABILY H W WraiiK at Nearly Kry Point, Uelnu Poorly Ii.lo.uied on llic Hultject, It HeemH, U11IT0K Tun Citizkn: Will von allow me to stale u lew fuels with regard to Mission Hospital ? First in reply to X's statement that "Ihiseonfestmiii ol how it has been re e ived when seeking a locution in other (liirls ol the city, etc." It has never "soujjht location" anywhere. We rented without the slightest difficulty, two dillerenl houses before wc purchased our present location und have never desired or attempted to locate elsewhere. Second As to Mrs. Hawley not know ing lor whui pui ihisc her proierty was Ix-itig purchased, it is very distinctly remembered by the entire Imard ot mana gers and the medical stalT that when they went in u liody to inspect the oroperty with it view to ourcliasini? it f r a hospital M it . Hawley made every elfort to sell with the provision that sin could retain for life the use of two rooms in the building. The munugers have never made any secret ol their desire and intention to build at the comer of Woodliu and Char lotte streets, and when Mr. and Mrs. Kuy made their noble oiler of a lot on liast street, il was not accepted until their consent was obtained to selling thai lot und applying the nionev to the erec tion of a new building ut the present lo- "X" seems surprised ut our dullness in not seeing the force of his threat, that the community will not support the hos- pital unless we comply with his demand, Had the noble, generous men and women t Asheville who have supported the hos pital lor six years, come to us with a pe tition lo move il oir the face of the earlh, I know wc would huve It-It it ourdutv to comply with their request' but as this demand comes from iicrsons who have never lifted u linger to help i in our work, wc fail to Iw terrified by their I hi en ts. Again, we fail lo sec the force of the irgumciit that a lot ol Fs acres is loo small for a hospital, hut that one 8o by- loo lect is amply large enough. Wc are also told that we shall not Initial a new hospital with cvtvy modern sanitary appliance (but may continue in delinately lo occupy our present old fash ioned house) because the children's home is olncctiouahlc. I leave the objectiona hlcncssof the children's home for future discussion, as it has nothing whatever to do with the subject before us. Every one in Asheville know, because the lact liu repeatedly been published in your columns us well us printed in the reports of both institutions, that the hospital and children's home arc entirely distinct and separate nlfairs. After lour years practical cxicrieiice wc yet failed to dis cover that our loL was too small for a hospital, and wc loaned the county commissioners the use of a por tion of it lo begin temporarily the C. II. This latter institution will be moved and permanently located exactly when it suits thecountycommissioncrsnnd bourd of managers ol Mission hospital to do so. There are other interesting facts with regard to this matter which 1 hope will lie brought out at the mccling tonight. The more light that is thrown on this subject the licllcr pleased will lie the board of managers of the Mission hos pital. Very rcsicctfully, F. L. 1'uttmi Do Charlotte street. THOME PAPERS.' I. .Hide Faeln About Superintend ent Way'H Advertlaemeiit. There is a good joke back of that ad vertisement in Tim Citizkn yesterday, asking that sonic papers that were in a dinner basket be returned to Maj. Way, UuucomliCB cllic ii ill county suK-rinlcu- i lent of schools. Somc ierson entered Maj. Way's room ! in the court house a few days ago, unci removed a basket in which he had brought his noon meal from home. The major di lu't care for the dinner, but he did care for the puK-rs. And the reason he did is this: lie is on the program of exercises of the Teachers' assembly at Morehead Cilv to talk on"compulsoryeilucatiou,"June 2.1. And the papers advertised for contained the speech which the innjor was going to make. Hut the borrower has not returned the sK-ech, and the siqicrintcudciit was com iicilcd lo rewrite it. 1 lie sncech has lost nothing by the turn of events, and those who attend the assembly mav Ik- assured that there is something good in store for them, dinner basket or no dinner basket.

Staruea Seta a Fine Exam ple In a Uoodnalured Way That liecouiea Hlm-HlH Brother Was Kilt lit. IviiiToK Tin: Citizkn: I "got there." I had "a brother on the board." In jus tice to him let me say, he was strictly opposed to my candidacy, ai were my three other brothers. There were but two candidates for the nominal position, '(for it ony exists in name, ns everyboi'y knows). 1 hesc were Dr. liurroughs ni d myself. Hiscousiu and two others voted for him, my brother ami two others voteil for sie, then the mayor broke the tie for me. Any lair minded man. lookinc at this vote, must decide that there was no juggling in the case. It is mituralcnough that u man should vote for his brothei , so if sins have been committed it is I who ought to be eluded and not my brother, who asked me not to run. This statement is honest and true. As much, icrhapi, might be snid of others. 1 venture to say that three fourths ol the board are less to blame than the men who were elected. Let the blame rest when it belongs. 1 did not seek I he office to mnkemoncv. I was aware that the income from the olliee was only about $.ri() (wr year. It is now plain to my mind that my brothei was right in not wanting me to have the position. He was able to sec what an embarrassing position he would occupy. So in justice to him und the three other gentlemen who voted for me, I make this statement, and hiqic that an intelligent public will conclude that mv ambition in lliiscnsc is, at least, pardonable.

Gentlemen of the board, I cannot ac cept the office. Hut I'll be confound if lliey rumble any more about kinfolks, and you can call on me over Worthcu's drug store, I'll "work you out."
