Saturday, July f, was a red letter day 111 tne History ot hkylantl, the young town on the Asheville and SpiirluiiburK railroad, about cilit miles from Ashe ville. It was "Hill Nye" ilny. For weeks past Iiukc posters have pri claimed the fact in great lll-liiic-pica let ters that Kill Nvc, the great humorist, now proprietor of the Skylnnd Tbmij,'ht works and a eottaxc near thut town, would give "the boys" a short talk on the Fourth of uly, and that iu addition to this great attraction there would be sack races, pig races, and various other amusements which might amuse the rural heart. When this miiuiunccnient was m; if created a wave of astonishment as well :ts pleasure and anxiety that stretched from llig Ivy to l'lat Rock. Astonish ment at the idea of a stcllarattraetioti ol Mr. Nye s magnitude deigning to cease work on his new play long cnonih to talk lo the villagers; pleasure at the pnisKet ol hearing from his own lips sonic ol those expressions which have made millions laugh; and anxiety lest something should trnnspiic "which should cause the humorist to change his mind.

Ily this time the Asheville contingent, at least, showed signs of hunger, and started lor the hotels, of which there are two, well-kept houses, which would do credit to towns many times larger than okyiaiiu. aoiwtilikiniulimi the ! crowil, the hotels aileniled I use with nlmor.
