IP the new ."owners of the Montford avenue car line will run it in the future as it has been run in the past, in the in terests of the public, they will deserve all the success they can possibly secure. We do not know, either, how we could pronounce a finer obituary on the out going management than is contained in the foregohT?. Iv the Clyde Register is cx-May.r Iilanton's organ the sooner lie calls it off the better. It is true the Washing tomans now rise up and call "Boss" Sbepperd blessed because he re-laid out Washington on a new plan that ave everybody a. chance to turn around without touching elbows, and made it the "City of Magnificent Distances" it is to day. But the way "Boss" went about this great work and executed it, is approved by nobody. He knew more about over pays than the mau who invented them, or than any one who has imitated him since. In short, the "Boss" was without a fine sense of honor. The years, on wings of tireless flight. Have brought me through the morn ing glowing, Into the noonday, clear and bright; But where the mountain breeze is blow ing Through twilight woods where oft I rode. The shades alone of loved ones wan der The ones with whom I once abode When life was new, when friends were fonder. My window looks upon the bay; On waters blue; on ships in motion; While in my view, at close of day, The sun sinks in the Western ocean. Cold is it" setting: dull and eray The steamers from the sun's red foun tains Come through the Golden Gate and play Upon the border line of mountains. Their fronts are bare. I feci no glow Such as the Balsams still could kindle; But gazing as the shadows grow, ' And the bold headlands slowly dwin dle, The curtains woven by the years, To hide old scenes anj boyish follies, Swing backward, and in mind appears Old Bald above its dreamy valleys. And lo, unto trie conies, as strong As first love to the youth, the yearn ing To feel the brct ze, to hear the son;. Of Richland, while in joy discerning Those beignts familiar to my feet. The vasty woods in Autumn splendid. The purple skies, the faecs sweet Of those who on my way attended.

And Hope attempts to fold bis wings, AJy mind to its interior turniug Discerns these landscapes, and it brings A peace beyond all wealth, all learning. Wilbur O. Zeiglcr. San I-"rancisco, May, 1893. 8TATK HANKS. XI WAB NOT DEAD. Drama The Citizen distinctly docs not wish to pre-judge the Church street widening matter, which will be considered on its merits by the Board, but this it is timely to say: that there has been lots of good money paid out in this town for "dam ages" where there were none. It is true that streets have been widened and the depth of some lots thereby lessened, but when the fronts were re-graded and sod ded it was nearly always impossible tosee. except because of the improved appear ance of the property, that any change had been made. Where lots are shallow and the houses must be moved back be cause of the widening of the street the actual damage is more apparent; but, generally speaking, there is more of ben efit in the re-made street than there is ot damage. We do not see, however, how exception can be taken to Capt. John ston's position as outlined in his letter to The Citizen yesterday: "I have only insisted on a fair and just compensation for the valuable proper ty the city proposes to condemn, less a tair and reasonable award of benefits, if any, which might accrue by the widening." ON vYXTM THE DANCE. There is no doubt that "society" at the national capital is considerably "torn up," or down, over the possible mistakes that poor democracy in a black spike-tailed coat such as Bill Nye on a lecturing tour and all first-class waiters are wearing may make in entertaing the Spanish Infanta Eulalie in this country. In the language of the street, it is feared that Ptesident Cleveland may make a "break." That is, he may turn just the least little bit of his broad back on royalty, or fail to bow low enough, or fall over his trail in reversing his leg motion to get out of the sight and hear ing of the Infanta.' It has-been insisted that the President should himself go down to the train when the Spanish contingent came in, and then get home the best way he could, and then make ready for Eulalic's visit, and then return it just as soon as Mrs. Cleveland got her markctintr done and the beds made up. Right there came in a hitch. The President of the United States does not return calls not even those of sovereign office seekers and he could not make an exception in favor of a woman 30 years old who calls herself an infant and says "Buenos Dias" instead of good morning like all other civilized people. So when this wan pointed out to the "society people things were in a worse flutter than when Charlotte the town thought the wrong man had been named to fill its assay office. Really it would not do a bit, and the Infanta probably would not come at all and the fun was spoiled. For this reason it is with a peculiar sense of relief that TheCitizen prints the following telegram from Madrid, where the Infanta stays when she is at home to visitors: "An official statement has been issued concerning the reception of the Infanta Hulalie in the United States. It says that the Spanish eovernment regarded it as offensive to American courtesy that anv negotiations should be made in ad vance as to the recention in the United States of the royal guests invited by the American people to attend toe world Fair." In other words, the Spanish govern ment has bad a spasm of good sen and now says that the Infanta may jnst take faer chances; the United States are sort o civilized, and lit will be safe far the Infanta to drop in on President Cleveland, hit or miss, and take pot lock, running all the risk of hitting wash dav. a boiled dinner, or hash for break fast. This is satisfactory to all of us, and now if President Cleveland, having car ried his point, wants to unbend a little and casually be at the depot when Eula lie comes in. it will be all right; we will aee that there is no unfriendly comment in this neck of the woods because of the II. Oa., B. Randolph. Brunswick.

The Atlanta Constitution, speaking ol Mr. Cleveland, says that he favors. among other things, the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax upon the circulation of State banks. The Washington Star, giving what it declares to be the basis of an agreement which has been made by the President on the one hand and the eaders of the party in Congress on the other, includes in it the repeal of the Sherman silver act and the substitu tion tor it of an act rccaling the State bank tax. Some weeks ago Sec retary Carlisle was credited by the paper last mentioned with financial scheme under wbicb the State bank tax was to be repealed and these institutions allowed to become again banks of issue, the securities upon which their notes are based to be passed upon and approved by the Federal Treasury Department. If Mr. Cleveland, conservative as he s about nnancial matters, has consented or docs consent to the repeal of the State bank tax, it may be taken for granted that this consent involves some such condition as this. With this safeguard provided, there is no apparent reason wliv State bank bills should not be as current as the bills of national banks. of Mcnl Life 111011 as r I litis iu Asheville. From the Washington Star. Two years ago a supposed widow in Michigan applied for a pension, claiming that her husband had died in a Confed erate prison. She was entirely honest. Neverthelejs, it was found on searching the records that the man was not dead. On the contrnry, he was living near Asheville, N. C. and was liiras-lf draw ing a pension for disability. He had been confined in a Southern prison, and during his incarceration be and other captive Union soldiers were visited by charitable Indies in the neigh borhood. Among the latter was a sus ceptible young woman who fell in love with him. After his release, instead of going home, he decided to begin life again on a new f.lan. He stayed where he was and married the girl. On looking the matter up it was found that the de linquent was one of the most highly re spected people in the vicinity. He had a hat store, did ft good business and; was looked up to by everybody. The pension bureau could not stop his money allow ance, ft simply notified the former wile that her husband was alive and told her where he was living, leaving the drama to work itself out.

Wilfred Clarke, who is pleasantly re membered by the Asheville theatergoing public, will play a return engagement at the Grand next week, the 23d and 2 tth. The Jacksonville, Fla., Metropolis says of the company : 'Those who witnessed " I it tor I at will apprec-ate tne remaru tnat My Awful Bad' is funnier still. Wilfred Clarke and his excellent comedy com pany, who bold the boards at the Park opera house this week, opened with it last merit to a hne audience. I he humor of the play began with the rising of the curtain on the first act and grew until it became infectious. When the play ended nearly everybody was holding his sides, and several gentlemen in tne au dience became so wrought up that they laughed every time Clarke rolled nis eyes. Air.

An extended clinical tsc of Harris' Lithla Water, prompts me f the statement that regard it as one of the best, if not the very beat Lithla Waters known to the profession. In the condition of "pbosphatic urine," its action is marvelous. Ita use In the rheumatic and gouty dlatbeaia, affords roc more comfort than either the Buffalo or Londonderry waters. Very truly yours, JOHN HEY WILLIAMS. I have uaed Harris Lithla Water and when using aame was both plcaied and benefited. In using It liberal quantities should be taken for my experience teaches me that small amounts are disappointing, whereas a generous use Is followed by most gratifying results. R. P. WALKER. Asheville, N. C, April 14, 1893. I am glad to be able to say a word with regard to Harris' Lithla Water. I have used it with the greatest possible benefit In chronic rheumatism. As compared with the Buffalo Lithio I find it quicker and requires less quanity. It has my hearty endorse ment. . MRS. T. W. BRANCH. Asheville, N. C, Aplil , 1893.
