A Member ol the Initial Prolemlon Telia "Tkt Vlllsen" a Htory of a Cane In Tain City Several Veara Ago. In u conversntion with n mcmlier of the Asheville bar yesterday, a story wns told Tim Citizi n that well illustrates the iIuiirci s atteniliii) the use of circum stantial evidence in the trial of a sii8xrt. The story, as loltl, follows: Michael Coleman, colored, had been for some months employed as a waiter nt hotel here, lit uud six fellow wait ers were under the control of William Smith, an intelligent negro of Rood char acter who held the place of head waiter, The proprietor had committed the (lining room silverware to Smith's care, and Smith was to be held responsible lor every part of it which might be missed, and he informed the waiters of this lia bility. On one occasion Coleman broke a dish and the price of the dish wasdeducted hy Smith from Coleman's wages, the for mer insisting that it resulted from care lessness. The latter was exH8icrated, nnd vowed that he would do Smith as mean a trick as he considered bad been done him. Soon after this, the silvcrsHftui began to ilisapiear from Coleman's table. After this had gone on for a week. Smith began to watch Coleman closely, believ ing that the latter, hy taking the shioiis for which he (Sm thl was rrsKinsilile sought the threatened revenge, lie learned that Coleman had given two teasKidiis to a young colored woman, telling her to have them made into linger rings. Coleman was absent Irom the hotel one day, claiming to lie sick. Smith thinking a good opHrtuiiilyorrTi'i,untl knowing Coleman was not in his room, made nrhduvil us to his suspicions nnd the cir cumstances Ix'I'orc a magistrate of this city and procured a warrant authorizing a search by officers of the apartments ol the susiected man. A deputy sheriff went with Smith and the room of the alleged thief was searched. Before beginning the search, however, he was taken into tht hotel anil the Smioiis in use there were laid before him. They were of two kinds, similes and sizes, and all liad.thc slump of the same maker. Smith also showed certain murks made across the back of the upH i part of the spoon-handles, uud a single straight mark accross that part of tin back of the spoon's bowl where it ii. joined to the handle. The marks hail lieen made with a rough instrument, anil had evidently been made for months. In most of the cross marks the instrument had not cut for a sufficient distance in first nnd the stroke hud been repeated, so that both strokes could lie plainly seen. Smith explained that he had made these marks witlia broken cnse-knile. When the officers searched Coleman's trunk he found carefully put away in the Ixittom, two silver spoons, identical in shape, size and device with the two kinds of spoons at the hotel, one ot each kind.. The maker's name was the same, and a most careful comoarison failed t discovert! slightest difference between ! mr aiMinn. iimi iti I iw irnn. n.,H i .u. used in the hotel. As soon as Smith saw the officers uncover the spoons, he de clared that they were beyond anv doubt two of those missing from the hotel. Coleman was immediately arrested, charged with the larceny of the spoons nnd taken before a magistrate. The prosecution whs represented byablccoun sel. The proprietor of the hotel identified tlie SMions ns bis property, and a half dozen each of the two different kinds of spoons were brought from the hotel nnd used in the trial. A careful coiuimrison of these spoons nnd the ones alleged to have been stolen was made bv the coun-1 sel on both sides, by the shcrilt, the depu-' ty, the magistrate, and several others. I among them the w'lilcrs at the hotel, the latter ol whom were desirous of giving anv aid to the riclenilnnt, and no one could detect the slightest difference. Two of the waiters tcstihed to hearing Cole man's threat. The chain ol evidence seemed to lie com plete. Coleman made an explanation in which he said he hud once owned a res taurant in Norfolk, Va , and while en gaged there two sihioiis marked as seen at the trial had been given him, by his mother and sister, and for that reason he had never parted with the Sioons. He introduced evidence to show that the practice of marking spoons in hotels with a cross mark was a very common one. Coleman's statement was lengthy and the crowd smiled incredulously nt his evidence. The magistrate had clearly de termined to hold him for trial. His coun sel apearei much disconcerted at the case made out, but insisted on his right to argue the case. The prosecuting at torney, therefore, made the oiicning nr gnme'nt. reviewing the case, the motivcof! thedefendant, etc. Meanwhile the counsel for the defend ant was nervously comparing the simioiis. At the conclusion ol the speech uiemngis trate turned and nsked the prisoner's I lu-' matter is now in good shape. A pub counscl what he had to say. lie meeting will lie held on ncx' Thursday "I have this to say;" he replied. "The ' night, when ull the facts, doubtless, will Simons found do not belong to the hotel!" be given. Ut us ull attend that meeting, He then took up one of the sMions found in the trunk and placing it alongside one of the hotel sinons, he pointed out that on the hotel sHon, immediately alter the name of the maker, stauicd op the back of the handle, was a small figure "2" not larger than n pinhend, while the figure was not on tlie spoons found in the trunk, and instead there was a small star. "1 further cull your attention," the at torney continued, "to the fact that this is the only one of the spoons found which has the mark across the bowl. The chuin of evidence lacks a link nnd, haw ever strong the remainder, the chain which wants a link is no chain all. The bov's story is true, and I ask that he be dis charged." It was plain that the state's proof must go for nothing; the chain was im licrfect, nnd the ease which hung upon it Icll lo the ground. Coleman was dis charged. His counsel had discovered tlie dillcrencc in time to save him, and an other illustration hud lieen given of the dangers of circumstantial evidence. HOHTICIXTIIKALIHT. A LIllleEplaode at a World'aFalr Moetlnc. Chicago, June 13. The World's fair directory last evening took action on the nomination made by Director General Davis, of Walter Maxwell to lie chief of the bureau of horticulture. Tlie com mittee appointed to investigate the accusations- against Maxwell reported there was no proof to sustaiu thecharges against bis character. When the nomi nation was put to vote, however, Max well was defeated 25 to 8. Director-General Davis thereupon sub stituted the name of Gen. N. P. Chinmnn. of California, and Gen.

A LOMU, HTRONU NEEDKD, Pl'I.L, Its Here la Matuellilnir Worth all our Bent Kllorla lo (secure Allot ucy Ueneral T. I'. ItavUlHon'a Forci ble Plea. Does Asheville want the South Atlantic university? If she docs, she will have an npportutii tv of making herself heard in the matter next Thursday night. A meeting is to be held in the Grand iiera house on Thursday night, June 18, lor the mirpose of taking the initiatory tepa looking to the sceurcment of the university at Asheville. THK CinzF.N talked to Attorney Gen eral Theodore F. Davidson on the matter this morning. That gentleman said : "As I understand the matter thel'rcsby terinn church represented by the four synods of North Carolina, South Caro linn, (:,rgiu nnd I'lorida, has resolved to establish au University at some oiiit within those states. The subject has been quietly discussed for some time and not long since took definite shape. The enterprise haslieeu committed to a board of regents which is now organized anil has had several meetings. At the Inst session of the General Assembly of North Carolina u charter was granted then. "1 think it may lie sulcly said the uni versify is hxca fact, and the only i.ncs- lion now to be determined is the loca tion which, I am told, will come up for consideration at a meeting of the board of regents on .'10th insl, "Several cities and towns have presen ted their claims, among them Augusta, Atlanta, Greenville and Spartanburg. It would lie impossible to ignore Asheville in the discussion of such proMisitioiiereu bad her citizens neglected to present her advantages; but there has been no such ncglict. On every proper occasion kind friends and public spirited citizens have sHikcn lor us, ami recent occurrences of which it uiuv not now lie prudent to speak more fully, give ground lor much hoic that this great institution will be located with us. "In my opinion it is the greatest op- IHiiiuuiiy mat mis men picscnictl us. Ti. .i.., .. " n ... r... generations lo conic, tesi.l ing Irom the establishment of such an nisi, union arc j incalculable. Not onlv will I ,. r,. ..i.l l.i:,i, ,l , ;..i ...i i tage from the erection ol the buililiiigs, n .. iiiil'rovcinciit ol grounds, increase of Kitilalion of the most desirable charac ter ami increased opportunities for trade and the employment of labor; but a'love and beyond this 'dollar, uud cent' view there is u nobler one. "Asheville haslieeu making tremendous strides; her advancement has surpassed the must sanguine boics ol her most loy al citizens, lint wc must not shut our eyes to the fad that while wc have passed . BIIUl Will prosicrity, we have, I fcur, not given that attention we ought to those things which bring true happiness and pros-, iicriiy ,We'must all admit that we havehith-' erto. nttaclie.1 too little importance to k-arning. Our young men have been .,. irk, iiib in iiiv i. lie mi wciiiui mm . fcilili nnil' taught to make money, but not to think; t.K, many of them are content to be ii umn nn iiublictb in niii,... mu town lots; too lew of them realize that ! llllll ' it is the educated mind, the mind trained iu schools and colleges that now controls the world. The day lor self-made men, ns that term has been applied, has passed, lie who now hopes to distinguish him self in the broad fields of battle, must be sure that his mental armor is well burnished. "Nothing so much fosters, among nil classes, the love of letters as the exis tence in the community of colleges and tinvcrsities. The presence of professors. pupils and all the appliances incident to ,utl1 organizations insensibly iieriueatcs every department ol the community. The loctttiou.o! this university at Asheville I really believe would be of more real unci lasting Dciichl to us than the building ul "" "unurcu lactones, "To secure these blessings wc must do something. Wc must not stop with set ting lorth the advantages of our situa tion, our beuutilul mountains, valleys and streams, the health giving iiialilies of our climate, the vigor and enterprise of our eoplc. All these are great aids, but little of the filthy lucre. Wc can do othlSj' without much sacrihce. Why, 1 am told that the assessment of the proierty within the corporate limits of the city "this year amounts to nearly ten million of dollars. II we will make a long pull, and a strong pull, and a pull aitogciner, wc will gel this prize. Our: neighbor, Durham, with not more than hall our strength, secured the location of Trinity College last year, snatching the prize from Kaleigh by sheer pluck and public spirit, Her citizens within a week raised more than one hundred thousand dollars. In closing Mr. Davidson said: "I have great confidence iu our success. I know weeun win if we will work. 1 think u'"1 1 ,ccl assured great gootl will result, SOUTH CAROLINA SOCIETY.

London, June 13. The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge cnnic to town this morning on, it is said, iniHr tant business. It is generally understood that the Prince's living is connected with the baccarat scandal. He was at first dis posed to treat the baccarat matter lightly, but he has now awakened as to the seriousness of his position. The Lon don correspondent of the Lced's Mercury says he has good reason to state that the Hon. lidwanl Staulioic, secretary of stute lor war, will apologize Monday next in the house of commons on liehalf of the Prince of Wales for Ihc'sUarc the latter took in condemning the con liict of Sir William Goidon-Ciiinniing at Trnnby Croft in September lust.

The provost of I'orrc, upon the arrival ol Sir Williiitnund Lady Gorilon-Ciiniiuing, made them a public address ol welcome ami presented to them the congratulations of the iuhalii tants ol the town.

Fuller's commission U9 asso ciate justice of the court of private land claims has been received bv him. This apKiiitiiicnt is claimed by some ns the result of the recent visit of the southern committees to the president; by others, to the personal influence of Senator Ran som, which is the most natural conject ure, for the selection wus not made with out delilicratiuii. All agree that it is ail exceedingly appropriate appointment, for Mr. Fuller ranks as one of the first law yers in the country, and has had oppor tunity to make a repututiou aheudy na tional. He comes before the country uo new man. At last the work on the electric rail wny has begun, tlie susieusion of the trolly wires being the first act. There arc already laid about four miles of the old horse railroad, but the rails will lie re moved to give place to heavier iron, so that the work lo be done is all practically new. Kaleigh docs not move us does Asheville in works like these. The Vurborough House is to lie en Inrgcd, and, as the Uvcniiig Visitor ol yesterday says, "Mr. Rancy thinks he can make room to meet all the emergen cies nt the comingex)osition. Tire build ing will lie much enlarged, and it is thought, can accommodate about six hundred guests." Think o'f it! Accom modate six hundred guests! The Var Imrougli, the only hotel ol any amplitude ol accommodation, and the erection ol other hotels only a matter of gossip! And, if the exposition draws as those at Atlanta have done, as even that ul Au gusta did, the numlur of visitors during the two months of its continuance may be estimated by the hundreds of thous ands; and yet wc arc told that Mr. Kaucy, with his excctcd ability to house six hundred guests, can "meet ull tin imergcncics of the coming exposition." This is a very blind trust iu Providence, or rather, in chance. For a day or two past the weather has lieen hot; yesterday the mercury climbed into the nineties. This lugins to semi the Kaleigh ieoplc down to Moichcnil. Next week that resort will be too crowd ed lor comfort ; for then the Teachers' As sembly meets. It isexK'cti.d to number from fifteen hundred to two thousand teachers, besides visitors. MONTI-OKI! PAHK UF.POT. A Large Force of Hand ICxcavat Inn fort lie Mile.
