THE ASHEVtLIiB DAILY CITIZEN. Tuesday livening, March 14, 1893. ONE DAY'S LOCAL NEWS HAPPKJtlNGS OP Till; IAT TWENTY FOIH UOl'HN. Stamp Clerk H. X. Dwlre UIch Tbla Morn in it Norlta Itlalu Hnv lux Brlck-Draib of Lou Brown la Buffalo, Ki. V. H. X. Dwirc, cashier and stamp clerk in Collector Rollius' office, died at his room in the Grand Central hotel this morning at 4 o'clock. Mr. Dwirc had been suffering from an abscess on the liver, and about a month ago was com pelled to leave his office and put himself in the care of a physician. A (e;v days ago he was better, and there was a hope of his recovery. His ailmert took an unfavorable turn, however, and death speedily followed. Henry Xenophou Dwirc was born about G5 Tears ago in Davidson countv, in the old "Jersey settlement." In early life he taught school, and when the war opened he entered the Confederate army, in which service he was a quartermaster. He leaves two sons, (icurKe and Henry, and one daughter, Miss Mamie, all of whom were witb him when he died. Mr. Dwire had been in the revenue ser vice (or the j ast lit) years, la 1SS1 lie held the chief clerkship under Geo. U. Everett. When the collector's olliee was removed to Asheville Mr. Dwirc c.tuij here, and has remained here ever since. He was a good and true man in every sense of the word honest, upright and of noblest iuipulsrs. His was a K-'"tle and kind nature, and he was always ready and willing to assist a friend in any possible way. Collector Rollins told The Citizen today that Mr. Dwire was one of the best men he has ever known. The remains of Mr. Dwire were taken today to Winston, his old home, accom panied bv the grief-stricken children and a committte of Knights Templar, ol which fraternity the deceasi d was an honored member. The Asheville Knights Templar escorted the remains to the de pot in a body. Since the beginning of Mr. Dwi'e's ill ness F. T. Walser has been tilling his position in the collector's office and will continue to do so. NORTH MAIN PAVINK. It Can Heiflu Whenever Hie Kail. wav Compau DoeH Its Work The Kobbins Pa ving Brick company, which is furnishing the brick for Xorth Main street, sent to Asheville yesterday three car loads of pavers that had evi dently been used for several months on some other city's streets. The wagons of Webb, Oates, h'skridge S: Co. began hauling; the brick up town, and had sev eral loads on Xorth Main before the eagle eye of Inspector Murray noticed them. The inspector at once told the contractois that if they eared to do so they might continue the hauling of the brick but they could never he put down in paving, and the tirm would be put to the extra expense of hauling. No more of the objectionable pavers were hauled. The contractors tell The Citizen that they are ready to go to work on North Main, near Chestnut, as soon as the street railway company will put its track in proper condi ion and place it in the middle of the street. Tne company has not vet begun this work. AROUND TOWN. Washington, Iarch 14-.

The crowd began teasing Pink Young, who had dropped in from Cripple Creek. This was ob jected to very much bv Young, and when the crowd came out of the house and kept up the tantalizing in the yarn, Young warned them that he would pretty soon hurt somebody. The warning had no effect, and Young pulled a pistol and fired several shuts into the crowd. Two of the shots struck a living target, and these imbedded them selves in the back of Moses Freeman, a visitor from Madison county. The pis tol was a 312-caliber weapon. Young was arrested bv Patrolmen Xoland and Glenn, and is in thecitv jail, awaiting the p-stilt of Freeman's wounds. Freeman is in a house on McDowell street, attended bv Dr. K. C. Starnes. The wounds are serious. I. Of UKOWN DEAD. His Dealn Occurs al Hi Home in Buflrtlo Manager Kuizenga, of the Lou Drown clothing house, received a telegram today from Mrs. Lou Brown, stating that her husband died at his home in Buffalo, X. .. this morning. Mr. Hrown came to Asheville a lew months ago from Michigan, although he was originally from New York State. He was suffering with consumption when he came here, and hoped to find relict irom his malady, if not a cure, lie made many friends here, and all will regret to hear of his death. He was about 28 years of age, and leaves a wife and one child. Mr. Brown's South Main street store will be closed until Saturday out of respect to the memory of the deceased. HIINTKD Hl'KTKK, And Tne Kesull h. Hunitr Now langulfhe In Jail. Reagan Hunter, white, who is wanted for sundry violationsof thcinternal reve nue laws in and about the Newfound neighborhood, this county, is now in Asheville jail. Hunter was captured by Deputv Sheriffs J. H. Hampton and F. M. tones, after u lively race, and despite the tact tn.it oe wore two pistols and swore he would never be taken alive. Twenty-five gallons of Hunter's whisk ' were also captured. Hunter will have a hearing before L'. S. Commissioner Summcv at nonn to morrow. Madison's NnrderUati The Gazette prints a list of murder cases tried or to be tried ut Madison court, and say the taxpayers of that county are "growing to think of the ex pense these trials will pat the county to. The seventh case in the list reads "Lew ellyn killed Brockui." Inasmuch as the killing of Brock us occurred in Buncombe, as the inquest was held by Buncombe's coroner. Dr. McBrayer, and as two Lewellyns are now in Buncombe jail awaiting trial, it would seem to be in order for the "taxpayers" to save them selves so much of the "groaning" as was caused by this caae.
