Both he McCarthyitenatid i'arncllites worked hard, and though there were many argu ments over doubtful voters, yet, as a hole, the election was remarkably met.

Four Drunks at The Recorder's) One Wsi oftue Howliuic Kind Four drunks was the catch last night and they sat in various attitudes of dejection as they faced his honor for trial. The first was an old offender. "Are you guilty?" asked his honor. "Certainly, sir, else why am 1 with you?" "Five dollars then," said his honor You should be familiar with it by this time." ' Can t pay it, said the o. o. The fact is, sir, the prevailing stringency of the money market has at last struck me. and, us we say on Wall street, I'm fiat, no Itinris. paper gone to protest.

Certain litigation now in progress re lating to the law of copyright has de- vclopcd the charge against Librarian Spofford, that wnerens lawsuits involv ing large sums of money had proceeded wo years on the fact and Mr. Spofford's own certificate thereto that certain opyrights bore certain dates, within a month he has changed thnsc dates on the records, so that if the changes were not detected the particular phrase of the litigntion which they covered would have ended immediately. Congress may he asked to investigate the mat ter. Meantime Mr. bpollord's trienUs arccanfulcnt that his reputation will be unharmed by the ordeal through which he will go.

The Alliance Leader's Ambition lo lie! a Fat Oflice. Rai.kioii, N' C, Dccemlier 14. The ul- liancc is losing-meinlwrs in North Caro lina. This is the information which mes direct to your correspondent. In some of the sub-alliances it is really dif ficult to get enough nicmlers to make the transaction of business possible. The reso'utions, some very fiery, which arc published by the alliance or "reform" papers, are engineered by a few men. Some of the alliance leaders tire interest ed in leading the public to believe that the order is steadily gaining ill strength id that its membership is larger than really is. It is also said that L. L. l'olk has a leeided ambition to lie the nominee for president of the third party, although he uovvs the honor to lie empty; and that he cannot get this lie will try to get he alliance suppo't us a candidate for governor, with Marion Uutler, president of the slate alliance as candidate lor lieutenant governor. Then the further plan would be tor Polk to make a race to i j'.ittsoui's place as senator, and let Hutlet become governor. Another report here is that the national alliance refused to allow Polk a secretary, and that this was the real cause of Hal W. Ayer'i leaving that position. It was publicly given out that the alliance would not endorse the "reform Press Bureau," of which Aver was the head, and that this caused him to leave. Richmond Dis patch. GOT A RAISE. The Richmond and Danville Fire- men to Make More Money. For several days past a committee from the Brotherhood of Locomotive firemen, employed on the Richmond and Danville divisions, has been in Atlanta in consultation with Assistant General Manager Thompson. The boys went there la usk an increase in firemen's wages on these lines. There were nine memliers ot the committee. The Atlanta Constitution has this to say of the out come ol this conference: "The whole case was gone over thor oughly and the company agreed to raise the wuges ot the hrenien ou the Ucorgia 'acitic troin 50 per cent.ot the engineers pay to 53 percent. On the other divis ions it was agreed to adopt the mileage basis, and instead ot u regulur salary ot $4H a month, the men will get 2 cents a mile. A height fireman makes trom 2,- 4U0 to 2,000 and 3,000 miles a month, so the pay will range from $48 to $(iu lor the men who work regularly. The hrenien on the Western North Car olina division are gratified at the in crease, although it was nolexuctly what they had asked lor. At the first cull ot the committee, the authorities would not recognize them, but finally decided to cive the firemen a hearing. Will 11.

The street of Ashevllleon Christ mas Eve No "Citizen" Tomor rowFull In Temperature Pre dicted This has been almost nn ideal Christ mas eve day, "shot to the core with sun shine" and gladness. Cloudy skies and murky atmosphere, with a genuine Lon don fog hanging around loose, through which the eyes of Dick Swiveler peering here and there and everywhere could al most be seen, have cleared away and the lieople of this city are happy in anticipa tion of the morrow. The street! are crowded with people of all sorts, classes and conditions, presenting a lively and inspiring scene, and many bright silver dollars were 8ent in the purchase ol presents that will gladden hun dreds of hearts tomorrow. The festive youth with his Christmas horn and kazoo keeps alive the sleepy huckster and causes many a smile to flit over the faces of the crowd. In Inct, the thoroughfares of trade are yet alive with purchasers and sight-seers, and the stores will be crowded far into the night. Everything and everybody seems to havedonned the Christinas garment of good cheer and good will to all men, and happiness and contentment reign all but supreme. Hut there are homes in Asheville where the gaunt wolf of hunger wails and waits at the door. Into those doors there comes no good cheer and gladness dur ing these festal days. While you aie eating your sumptuous Christ mas dinner or watching your dear chil dren sport in their gladness and in their glee remember those to whom Christmas comes alone with the reminder that they huve "seen better times." To better celebrate this . festival Till! Citizkn will not be issued tomorrow, all its employes and employers proposing to give ui the duv to rest. St. Paul, Minn., Dec. 24.

He was placed upon a table, his feet confined and the cone-slmpcd paper fun nel, which contained a sponge satura ted with chloroform, was applied. Tbe funnel covered his face and head. The deadly fumes quickly did their work and he was dead. It is said to be painless this death from chloroform perhaps it is. The subject made a beautiful corpse as be lay stretched out in all the glory of of his rich plumage. For it was a fine specimeu ot the nquilh canadensis, or golden eagle. N. W. Fain, the taxidermist, had pro cured two live specimens of this beautiful bird, und requested Dr. J. A. Watson to chloroform them, that being the most painless method of killing them. The larger one of these birds measured seven feet from tip to tip when his wings were outstretched. "These birds," said Dr. Watson, "were caught in the Smoky mountains, and arc rather a rare variety, differing from the Leucoccphalus or white headed, com monly call'-d bald eagle, in runny re spects. Usually they are not so lame. and the color of the plumage is of a rich olden brown, with little or no while. be younger birds, those under three years of age, have golden riugs on the tail leathers, and are ignorautly said to be another variety of the same bird. this is au error; when they have passed their third year the tail rings disap pear entirely.
