Owvn and Olbem-Raising: the HlaiidilE3 BIO An Imporlant omlMlon In tlaes Huckster Ordinance. "It'a preposterous to pave that little thing called Atkin street," said Walter B. Gwyn to the members of the Joint Board yesterday afternoon, at tbef weekly meeting', which was attended by Mayor Blanton, all of the Aldermen and all of the Advisors with the exception of Mr. Williams. Besides these officials, there were in attendance the three Messrs. Penniman, Contractors Lasley, Key, Cites, and Bostic, and a bin crowd of citizens. Mr. Gwyn's remark was made during the delivery of a speech brought out by the reading of the paving committee's report (published in The Citizen Wednes day) by Alderman Starnes. While read ing, Mr. Starnes read the name of White Pine street. Mayor Blanton at once corrected hint by saying "Pine." Ad visor Miller said "White Pine" was the old name. Alderman Gndger put it this way: Surname "Pine." given name, "White," and what he said was allowed to go. Working; for a Sidewalk. The majority and minority reports were read, and J. M. Gudger, jr., showed a map of the city on which the streets proposed for paving by the committee were designated by red, blue and green ink according to the character of the paving. Mr. Gudger wanted to show that the southwestern portion got very little paving, and, more particularly, desired that the board should grade French Broad avenue, on which he lives, extend the water main, and make a sidewalk. Then the inhabitants of that street would be satisfied. Mr. Gwyn then took the floor, mid with the map proceeded to show the Board that "the Fourth ward was de cidedly left." The Mayor "You ought to have an Alderman on the Board." "Well " replied Mr. Gwyn. "if you will leave this question of paving alone until we get an Alderman I will say no more." He continued then, to explain how the Bo.-ird should pave only the thorough lares, and then do a great deal of side walk work on the side streets. He said that when the $500,000 of bonds were voted it was thongl.t that we coulrl pave Asheville, Iletidi-rsotivillc, Char lotte, Wcavcrvillc, tc., but tiov, it ip peared, the pile did not look t,o large. Here Mr. Gwyn made the n-niark about Atkin street (on which Advisor Hunt lives) and Mr. Hunt blinked but said nothing. Mr. Gwyn also said that he would rather have no paving on Grove street than to have macadam. TalfclnK About Brldga Street. Capt. M. T. Fagg agreed with Mr. Gwyn. W. L. Walker begged for a side walk and grade on French Broad ave nue, "and," said he, "if you give us that. you do pave Bridge was Alderman I don't care if street;" and then it Baird's turn to blink. J. M. Gndger, jr.. took a oartine shot at the Board on the question. "I don't think," said he, "that you ought to thus lay out work for the incoming administration." Alderman Starnes then moved that Pine street, from Collcee to Chestnut. East street, Hiawassee place and Merri mon avenue be added to the streets in the report. It was carried, and on mo tion of Alderman Gudger the entire ques tion was postponed to next Friday. i ne committees on a resorvoir site. and to consult Receiver Maddux about paving material between the car track were given another week. Mo DamsKes. Advisor Green reported that there had been no damage to the property of Mrs. Duffield on West Haywood street. Adopted. Advisor Cummings read a telegram from the Connery Boiler company stat ing that the bid for rebuilding the stand pipe ($2,095 on Mondav) had been raised to $2,80O and the bid to purchase the old material raised from $300 to $450. City Engineer Lee reported that the Wortbington company was not setting up the machinery at the pump house, and an order was made to notify the company to get to work. fex-Aldcrman K. L. Fitzpatrick sent a communication, asking that a commit tee be appointed to see if the property owners along Orange street would not give five feet of land so as to have a side walk on either side. This was laid over till n-xt Friday, as was the report of a committee on carnages to property of Mr. White, on Bailey street. After pamasre Money. J. H. Tucker, esq., asked for a damage committee on the Melke property. Ad visor Hunt, Alderman Baird and City Engineer Lee were appointed. Mr. Tucker also inquired about damages to property of Messrs. Piegler, Swicegood and White. The street committee was instructed to reconstruct about 6fteen feet of steps, near the frtight depot, that were torn down by the city. M. H. Kclley was ordered paid $5,000 on his contract for the pipe line. On motion of Advisor Hunt the Board decided to lend Contractor Key twenty five barrels of pitch. The following bills were ordered paid : The Democrat, $1.50; F. N. Waddell, $14; J. L. Murray. $75; Kelly & Strach an. $100.81; J. E. Dickcrson & Co., $75.85; Corn & Troy, $117.35; street pay rolls, $108.75. THIS BIO SIX. An IuiponanlOmlaslon.and Bow It Happeacd. The Board of Aldermen held a short meeting, just to keep up its end of the procession. There were present several hucksters, till of whom became especially interested when they heard a call for the minutes of the meeting in which was adopted the hucksters' ordinance. And as the reading progressed a smile came over the faces present, because of a very important omission. Only five words, it is true, but just the words the omission of which made the ordinance an ironclad all-wool-and nerer-mn-do wn-at-the-heel order. It read house. It slii.uld have added, "except in .ne market house, nut it clitlii t, and there it stood a law that has b'cn vio lated by every green grocer in the half- mile limit, whether in or outside the market bouse. Mr. Starnes, who framed the ordinance, felt sure that the words appeared in the original of the ordinance. The ordinance was published in the Ga zette, and the copy cut from that paper pasted on the minute book as a part of tne record, livery member thought the missing words were in the original, but the original could not be found yester day. To make things sure, however, Mr. Gudger moved to amend the ordi nance so as to cover the ground. The rules were suspended and the amendment adopted, and thus ended another missing word contest. Moral : 1 1 pays to ad vertise in Thb Citizen. Want' Em to Tole Fair. Mr. McDowell made a protest against the action of some of the hucksters in keeping on sale goods that did not be long to a huckster's business. He thought they ongbt to act fair all 'round, but no other member seemed to desire to tackle the question. The committee on damages by the bursting of the stand pipe recommended that Cbas. Reynolds be paid $16, Ida Clarke $8, and F. S. Jaquith $40. The report was adopted and tbe committee continued. Recorder Miller called the Board's at tention to a very old ordinance in the code, which said that no person should sell hay, fctraw, shucks or fodder on market square. He wished to know if tbe Board desired that enforced. The Board apparantly had never heard of it, and Mr. Gudger offered an ordinance re pealing the objectionable section, which was passed on the first reading. These bills were ordered paid: Street department, $84.39; water department, $26 80; sanitary department, $36. HUPHEME COURT OPINIONS. Three cmci or interest to Aatae vllle and Buncombe. Tbe Supreme com t handed down on Thursday opinions in three cases from Buncombe county. In the case of Jordan vs. Asheville, a new trial was granted.

DEATH KIDTSA HUGE WAVE AN OCEAN STEAMER'S f I SV AL EXPERIENCK. several Officers and Four I'aSHru IterM Nwrpt From the Deck and Drowned The captain Fatally Injured. London, Feb. 11. The Allan Line steamer Pomeranian, from Glasgow, January 27, via. Mowile for New York, has returned to Greenock, after losing a number of its crew and passengers in a heavy storm. The Pomeranian was about 1,150 miles westward from Glasgow, when she encountered weather of unusual severity. The gales increased with great suddenness on February 4, until a heavy sea unexpectedly swept over the deck, carrying everything before it. Tbe deck saloon, chart house, bridge and boats were smashed and swept away by the tremendous force of the waves. When the sea had passed over, the decks were the scene of ruin, and the shrieks of the perishing sailors and pas sengers could be heard in the waves that surged about the dismantled steamer. Captain Dalziel was on the bridge when the avalanche of water struck the vessel. He was swept front his post and dashed against the bulwarks, where he lay stunned and helpless. Mates John Cook and John Hamilton, also on the bridge with the captain, were swept out to sea and drowned. Besides the first and sec ond officers named, two quartermasters, the stewards, four first-cabin passengers and one second-cabin passenger perished by drowning. James and Lillian Ginson of Dalkeith, June Coffery of London derry and John Stewart of Glasgow, were the first-cabin passengers lost. They were in the deck saloon at the time of the disaster and were hurled ovcrboarj with the ruins of che saloon. They were never seen again, but the sur vivors say their despairing; cries pierced the air even amid the thunderous roar of the waves. Peter Forbes, of Dundee, is th! second-cabin passenger missing. Two seamen also perished. For a moment after the castrophc the survivors was too stuned to act. With the captain disabled and the first and second officers drowned, there was no one, for a moment, from whom orders were expected. Everyone looked about to see who was in command. Then the third officer quickly brought the crew to their senses and took prompt action to save the steamer aud its human freight from furthtr calamity. All the instru ments for navigation bad been swept away except one compass, by which the steamer had to be navigated. Capt. Dalziel was borne to bed. His injuries were fatal aud he died on the following morning. The crew cleared away the wreck, and the vessel started on its" return voyage, making its way back slowly and care fully to Greenock. The survivots of tbe passengers and crew are in a very ex hausted condition after their terrible experience. MURDERED FOUR PERSONS. "Doc" Rav the dlaieni or the st lers and McDonald sisters. Raleigh. Feb. 9. One ot the notable crimes of the past year was the murder of the McDonald sisters, in Moore countv at their home. A negro named Doc Ray was the murderer. This dis covery was made in January, and Ray was shot dead by four negro deputies while resisting arrest. A week or two before he was detected there was an other equally horrible double murder, that of Adam Siler and wife, this time in Chatham county, tbe crime being committed in their house at night in precisely the same manner as the Mc Donald murder. Today it was made known here that Ray was the murderer of the Silvers as well as of tbe McDonald's. His motive in each case was robberv. Richmond Dispatch. An orderlv Procedure. Memphis, Feb. 11.
