TERRIBLE Mrs. Malvlna Kuykendall, Aired 7s, Burned to Death Near Her Home on Beaverdam Last Frl. day Night. An accident most distressing in its nature occurred on Beaverdam, about 15 miles from Asheville, Friday night. Living elone in a small house, at least a quarter of a mile from any neighbor, was Mrs. Malvina Kuykendall, a widow lady, about 72 years of age. On Friday night while Mrs. Kuykendall was sitting before the fire, by some means her cloth ing was ignited. The old lady, realizing her peril, endeav ored to reach a small stream of water which runs within about 75 yards of the house, thinking to throw herself in and extinguish the flames. Mrs. Kuyliendall's age and infirmity prevented her from running, and the wind but tanned the names. When within a few feet of the stream she was overcome and fell to the ground, her Icet almost touching the water. She must have died instantly. About 10 o'clock Saturday morning Mrs. Mary Taylor, a neighbor, went to Mrs. Kuvkendall's nous,; for something. She ra w evidences of a fire, and fearing an accident had happened, returned to her home and sent a messenger to the house of Mrs. Kuykendnll's brother, to ask if she had been there. As the old lady had not been there, search was instituted, and she was found Wing as described, with all her clothing burned off, and her bodv horribly burned, especially at the neck and waist. Coroner L. B. McBraycr was notified, and yesterday morning held an inquest over the bodv, with the following jurors: W. L. Warren, T. M. Hulford, W. E. Brooks. J. M. Netherton and R. M. War ren. Tlicv found a verdict in accord ance with the facts as stated above. Mr. Kuykendall wus known by many people in the county, and was respected by all. AN UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR. A Forced Letter Causes a Young , Man to Leave Home. Pinf.ville,sN. C.,5 March 19. Brown Rogers, a young man who has been in Pineville about three months attending Prof. Scott's school, lelt unexpectedly Wednesday night, under rather peculiai circumstances. He was from VanWvcke, S. C, and is a son of Turner Rogers, one uf the most prominent citizens of that place. A few days before he left he re ceived a letter from his father telling him that he had disgraced his family, and that he never wanted to see him again. The day he left he wrote to his sister, telling her about getting the letter and that he would carry out his father's wishesand that she norany of the family should ever see or hear from him again. The letter was a great surprise to the family as the father had not written the letter spoken of to his son. It was a forgery. His family is almost overcome with grief on account of the unfortunate affair and are anxious to communicate with him. Charlotte Observer. A DEATH B " N F.tsNIUN. "Dud" Colllua B t er mur dered Dobbin Morris. Grebnsboko, N. C, Maich 10. Five years ago Messrs. S. S. Ragsdale, nur serymen of Jamestown, in this county, had in their employ as a trusted agent Dobbin Morris, of Tbomasville, N. C. He was sent to Tennessee on a collecting tour for the company and had met with considerable success, having collected about $500. He wrote to his firm stat ing that as soon as he could reach a money order town he would send the amount home. Nothing, however, was ever heard of him until a few days ago, when the firm received a letter from a physician at Sneedsville, Tenn., in which he said he had been attending a young man of the name of Bud Collins, near that place, who, on his death-bed confessed that hr and his brother had murdered Morris for the $500. The young man's brother, the doctor added, had been struck by lightning ab:ut eighteen months before. Richmond Dispatch. A PITIABLE CASE. Dangerous Condition of Mrs. OS borne In Holloway Jail. London, March 21. Friends of Mrs. Florence Ethel Osborne, sentenced re cently to a term of nine months' imprison ment for perjury in the great pearl case, have good ground for their fears that she will not live to serve out her sen tence. Her condition has been such that before her trial and after her condemna tion she was confined in the itifirmatory attached to Hollowav jail. She is in a delicate condition and the disgrace she has brought upon herself and family has proven greater than she can bear. Today it is announced from the prison that she is in a comatose condition. Republicans Downed. Rai.eigh, March 19. The republicans have been whipped by a ladv Miss Hoke, the postmaster at Lineolnton, ho secures that position against all foes. A republican named Mullen got the appointment and returned to Lin' cslnton to displace her. He hired help and made all his arrangements. But Miss Hoke made a trip to Washington and checkmated him. When the repub licans found they were foiled they held a meeting and adopted resolutions vigo rously condemning the administration for keeping democratic postmasters in office so long.

He has never been known to "pinch" the taxpayers of Buncombe, but he now savs time's up, and he proposes to go in for the collec tion of taxes in the only way left for him. That is the way provided by law the sale of property. Sheriff Reynolds has waited as long as he can, and is now determined that the delinquent shall pay him. He will give them until March 31 to come up and settle. If settlement is not made he will proceed to advertise and sell property of such delinquents, without regard for race, color, or previous condition. This advertising will begin on the first day of April, mow ten (lavs oil. This is no idle talk of the sheriffs. He means it every word. He is under bond for the collection of these taxes, and while he dislikes to take this severe step, it remains bis onlv recourse. The sheriffs authority in this matter is given a clear definition in the Machinery Act of North Carolina, iseetion ud 01 the act provides that the sheriff shall give notice to such delinquents of the sale through a newspaper for lour con secutive weeks, and also by mail. The section says further says: "The notice shall contain a notification that all the the lands on which the taxes of the pre ceeding year, naming it, remain unpaid, will be sold, and the time and place of sale, and said notice must contain a list of the lands to he sold and the amount of taxes due thereon." And so on. The authority lor this sale is absolute, and it may be well for the tardies to call on Sheriff Reynolds at their earliest converience. A published list of the delinquents would make inter esting reading. HOW AHOl'T THIN? Will Two Regiments) Be Allowed To Encamp Her.? Josh James, the editor of the Wilming ton Review, on hearing that two regi ments of the stale guard would encamp at Asheville, wrote to Gov. Holt, inti mating that there might be some ob stacle in the way of tlvs encampment at Asheville. Gov. Holt replied: "I have noticed an article in your issue of the 0th inst., headed 'Two Encamp ments.' 1 desire to say that the subject of the next encampment was mentioned to me once and only once, and that by General Glenn, who said that two of the regiments desired to go to Asheville. I asked him if the contract with the state and citizens of Wilmington would not prevent their going to Asheville. He re plied that he thought not. This is all I have heard or said about the matter. 1 would be glad to see a copy of thai deed, or contract, on or before the 22d ol this month, so as I can see and judge for myself." U may be said in this connection thnt as the news has gone out that two regi ments would encamp in Asheville, it will be very much against their wish if they have to go to Wrightsville. In fact, so 1 he Citizen is informed, mem bers of two of the companies in the First regiment have expressed their in tention of coming to Asheville or going nowhere, if any ol the regiments are al lowed to come here. ABOUT GOOUSUN, One ol His Counsel at Marlon says He Is a Demon. The following, taken from the Marion Record, may give some pointers to the authorities who have charge ot the case of Goodson, now in jail for the murder of Andrew Webb, the colored boy: "We learn from Mr. W. F. Craig that the negro boy Clarence who drives the hack for Mrs. Witter, told him three weeks ago (it seems before the discovery of the crime) tliat Goodson had mur dered a boy in Buncombe. If the Ashe ville auli tori ties would take Clarence in eustodv he might throw some light on the foul deed. Goodson is a most heart less demon, totally devoid of any sensi bility. The day before he thought he was to be huug here he was perfectly in different. Col. J. F. Morphew and the writer were assigned us counsel tor him He asserted his innocence all the while. yet we thought him guilty and it was bard work to aeicna nun. HCNDAV SCHOOL SCHOLARS. But They Didn't Follow In Steps of Washington. the There were six boys, five white and one colored, before Recorder Miller this morning 011 a charge of gambling on Sunday. The boys set up a stake on the sidewalk, and then "flipped" up nickels, the boy whose nickel came ncurcst the stake to take the "pot." The recorder gave the boys a long lecture on the vils of gambling, and advised them that thev would better have been at Sunday school. His surprise can be imagined on hearing one of the little culprits sav he had "just come from Sunday school. On account of the boys' ages the record er made the fine $2 each. The boys paid up and promised to do better hereafter, Four drunks were nned $9 each. Handsome Cigarette Boxes. Manager Hull, of the Asheville Tobacco works, this morning showed The Cm ZEN the proofs of the designs which will ornament the cigarette boxes to be ued by the company. There are two brands "Asheville Air" and "Junnluska." The boxes of the former brand have a view of Pisgah and t'ie French Broad, while winged cherub hovering in the clouds calmly puffs a cigarette, the smoke from which, Capt. Hull says, assists largely in making the Asheville air so healthy The design for the "Junnluska" boxes shows an Indian warrior in front of his tent spending the time in watching the smoke form wreaths in the air about him. On the back of every box is unique monogram, "A. T. W." The boxes arc handsomer than any others in the market. Rev. A. C. Dixon Coming. Rev. A. C.

A British Torpedo Boat and a Portugese Gnu TBoat Ordered Thence to Subdue the Revolt People Armed. Mozambique, March 21. A despatch Ouilimane, which town is beseiged by a force of 6,000 natives, states that the blacks have assumed a most menacing attitude and momentallv threaten an attack upon the place. The most intense excitement prevails. Every man and boy in Ouilimane capable of handling a gun has been armed, and the inhabitants are prepared to hold the place to the last extremity. The outskirts of the town are closely guarded, to'prevent the na tives from making one of their rushes en masse that distinguish their methods of warfare,., Ti cse guards are expected, should a rush be made, to break the mass and prevent a combined attack upon the town itself. 'J, The British torpedo' cruiser Mohawk, mounting six guns, has been ordered to Ouilimane from Mozambique, a Portugese gun boat with 100 soldiers on board, has already been despatched to Ouilamane, and if the notives postpone their attack until the warships reach there it is be lieved they can be easily oated.
