" - - - DliSOLIITION. Ernest p. Jenka to Succeed Mesara. jenka & Jeuka. The dissolution of partnership in the real estate and insurance business be tween Messrs. Charles N. Jenks and Ar thur E. (cnlcs, notice of which is given in another column, although probably somewhat of a surprise to most of their friends here, has been anticipated by the members of this firm for nearly a year. Since the establishment of their busi ness here two years ago, the Messrs, Jenks have successfully floated two stock companies the Western North Carolina mining and improvement com pany, and the Western North Carolina corundum company noth ol which are heavily backed by northern capital These two corporations have invested largely in timber and mineral lands Jackson and Transylvania counties this state, and in Georgia, the first named company being at present the possessor of about 12,900 acres, lying on the head waters ol the Toxawav and Tuckaseige rivers, and covered with an unusually heavy grewth ol poplar, cherry, oak, spruce pine and other woods. The company's property embraces the famous Hogback mountain, one ot the loftiest peak9 of the entire Blue Ridge range, its elevation above the sea being slightly over five thousand and five hun dred feet. On the summit of this moun tain the co-npany has built a commo dious hunting lodge for the accommoda tion of its stockholders, and has taken active steps to effectually protect the game and fishonitsmagniticent preserve from the depredatiuus of the "pot hun ter." Thecomoany proposes at no dis tant day to stock its streams with Cali fornia trout, and to construct an artificial lake on the property, covering an area ot several hundred acres, by damming the head waters of the Tiickaseige. The immense timber resources of this traet will also be utilized as toon as a railro. d incompleted within a dozen or lifteen miles ol its borders. The Western North Carolina corun dum company owns and controls twenty rive of the most valuable corundum prop erties in North Carolina and Georgia, having acquired it through the efforts ol the Messrs Jenks, who havepersonallv examined every corundum deposit ot any promise ever discovered in the United Mates. Thecompany is at present work ing two of its mines with great success, the output being large and the qualin of the mineral being superior to any that has heretofore been put upon the market in quantity. The company is about to erect a very complete and costly plant in New England, where the raw material will be shipped and afterwards crushed and graded. Mr. C. N. Jenks has been for ayear and a half the superintendent of the improve ineut company and general manager ot the Corundum company, Mr. A. K. lesks having been the 'secretary and treasurer ol the latter corporation tor the same length of time. The duties in eident to these positions have now become of such an important nature that the Messrs. Jenks areoiiliged to give up in a measure their other business in terests here, although Mr. C. N. jenks will still make his headquarters at Ashe ville, where the principal office of the Corundum company will continue to be located. Mr. E. P. Jenks. who will in the future carry on the real estate and insurance business of Jenks & Jenks, will, in carry ing out the plans and business policy of the old firm, receive the advice and assistance of his brothers, especially with rcierence to trie purchase or sale ot tun lr and mineral lands, concerning which the firm of Jenks & Jenks has a most thorough and comprehensive knowledge.

Walter Graham, foreman of the work on the government building, took The CiTtziiN through the big house this morning. On the first floor, or postoffice, work men are busy finishing the plastering, while others are putting in the postoffice screen. The lock boxes were put in posi tion yesterday. Of these there are 711, new and handsome as can possibly be. The working room of the postoffice will be in size 60x6 feet. The postmaster's pri vate office will be in the wing which ex tends to Haywood street. The wood work for the office was done by the P. A. Demens' company, and is a splendid piece of workmanship. The offices lor the use of clerk and ther officials of the United States court, on the second floor, are finished. The court room, however is still under hand ol the plasterer, and on account of the elaborate cornice work will not be fin ished for some time. In the basement workmen are now putting in the brick floor. Here is to be ine lurnace room, irom which hot air will be sent through every room in the building. Here also is the watchman's room, a little space, with an iron ladder by which he can climb to a level with the postoffice floor and see that all is right A large ventilating shaft runs from basement to roof. An ornamental top is to be put on which will make it eight feet higher than it is now. There will he a hose on every floor, with proper con nections, which will be used in case of gre. Mr. Graham is doing everything to complete the work quickly, but will make nopromises. Thereis much trimming and cleaning to do, and he cannot teli when he will be done. The area wall for the front has yet to be built, and the beat ing apparatus remains to be put in. The plumbing and heating work is being done by Ballard, Rich & Boyce. HAD FEW EQUALS. M.J Bcarden, who on yesterday fell from a ladder while descending Irom the loft of his stable, is better to-dav. His hip causes considerable pain, luit it is thought he will be out in a week or el baps less time. Recorder Miller had only one caw Ik fore him this morning. A bootblack named Murray was up charged with trespass at tne passenger depot. He was fined $, , and not being able to pay was sent to jail. Rev. W. A. Nelson, pastor of the First Baptist church, . K. Patterson, clerk of the criminal court, and Deputy Register K.J. Stokelev, left this morning for Ten nessee, to attend a meeting ot a Baptist association near Pel Rio. Some improvement in the street has been made at and near Battery Park switch on Patton avenue. The street leading up to the Park has been cut down near the junction, and new maca dam spread.

The sermon at the Central Methodist church last night was on "Confessing and forsaking sin." and was based on Prov. 28:13. "He that covercth his sins shall not prosper; but whoso conlesseth and torsaketh them shall have mercy." It was one of Mr. Tattle's best efforts and that is to say that it was heart searchiug. There were tweotv-one pen items at the altar for prayer and not less thana hall score ol professions of faith. The congregations are so large that it is impossible to seat them in the church. If there werea larger building in the city to which this meeting couid beim ved the indications are that larger numbers would lie reached. It is evident that the Central congregation will have to en large the seating capacity of their church at an early day or swarm and form an other congregation. This church can ZTZLT.,! ! WITOKTBl.

Mogridge, of Plain City, Ohio, in which the following tribute to Col. K. G. Dun, who died in Ashcville recently, occurs: "In him the agricultural world has lost one of its ablest supporters. The friends of progress, justice, reform and humanit sustain a great loss. He bad few enual and no superiors.

Oudger inlormed Tiih Citukn toilav that the statement made yesterday as to the "unanimous vote of the board" on the question of selling the city bonds at 05, or paying 5 ikt cent. commission, was an error. Mr. diider was opposed to the sale of the bonds at the price offered, anil so ex pressed himself at the joint conference on Wednesday and the aldcrmanie -sii,n yesterday. Mr. Oudger presidul at the meeting at which it was decided that $120,000 of the bonds should lie sold at 5 per cent, commission. As an aiuerman Mr. (.udger was entitled to a vote, and accordingly voted "no." Mr. Gudger tells Tub Citizkn further that as a private citizen he would favor the sale of the bonds in this way, but occupying the position he does, he felt that he could do nothing except comply strictlv with the act, which provides that the bonds shall not lie sold for lens than par. Looking nt the matter in that light he voted in the negative. Reduced Rale.
