The orocession will be composed as follows: Platoon of police headed by Chief Charles D. Heartt; Governor's guard. Captain John W. Cross; funeral car drawn by four horses, driven by James H. Jones, formerly Mr. Davis's coachman; veteran escort ana general escort in eight divisions, each in charge ot a veteran; first division, I'rcsiucnt and Executive committee of the Confed erate Veterans' association of North Carolina Dr. E.JBurke, Haywood, direc tor; second division. cx-Confedcrate soldiers N.

The exterior ot the stately Capitol building will be draped with the red and white of the Confederate colors, and these will also be used in the rotunda, under whose lofty dome the bier will be placed. The bier will be draped in black and white and will be quite lofty. The exercises at the capitol will be brief and as follows: singing by the choir ol sixty voices. William S. Primrose, direc tor; Prayer by Rev. Dr. Matthias M. Marshall, rector of Christ church, Ral eigh, benediction. At 2 o'clock the pro cession will, in the same order, escort the remains to the station.

President Cleveland's Pastor Hpeuks Oat In Hee'luic. Washington, May 22. In the First Presbyterian church, the pastor of which is Rev. Dr. Sunderland, and which Pres ident Cleveland attended as usual yes terday. Dr. W. M. Smith being invited to speak, took for his text "Bear ye one anothers burdens." He said that one- half ot onr population was out of the church; seventy five per cent, of our young men and two-thirds of the labor- ng ciasiKs not ocing wituin us lniiucncc. A Presbyterian church of 115 members. he said, was bringing only eight addi tional members a year. At the conclusion of Dr. Smith's ad dress Dr. Sunderland arose and said "Dr. Smith neglected to state the cause of the dissension and distraction in the Presbyterian church at this time. I want, here and now, to state the cause that cause is Dr. Briggs. I would not be in that man's shoes today for all the world. Let us sing hymn No. 533." Many of those present went forward and congratulated Dr. Smith on his elonuent effort, but the latter, who kcenlv felt the rebuke of the aged pastor, could say nothing. 1 M MIUKATION TA TBI5 I1RIGGB C ABIC. It Pones Ui In the Presbvlerlau Assembly. Wasiiinoton, May 22. In the Pres byterian General Assembly this morning the Briggs question came to the front. Dr. Voung, chairman of the committee on Ijills and overtures, announced what had been done with a number of over tures from Presbyteries 12 of them re lating to tbe Briggs case, having been re ferred to the committee on judiciary. Dr. Herrick Johnson of Chicago inquired what had become of an overture from his Presbytery in the Briggscasc. He wanted the Assembly to refer this case back to the synod of New York. Dr. Thos. C. Hall of Chicago made a speech in iavor of sending resolutions in the Briggs case to the judiciary committee first. Elder Eudaly of Cincinnati stated that the Assembly had to do simply with the law as it is. There was ircncral parliamentary con fusion, various commissioners attcmpt- ng to get the floor, amid which the an nouncement was made that the Chicago overture bad gone to the judiciary com mittee. While the moderator was attempting to put the question. Dr. Johnson re mained upon his feet, calling repeatedly, X claim the right to be heard, bis words being received with applause. Commissioner Cutchcon ot Detroit stated that there was an overture from his Presbytery, and in view of that fact he supported the motion to refer all the Ki'igRS overtures to the judiciary committee. Reference of overtures to the judiciary committee was carried and then Dr. Craig said: "Don't you try to over whelm us with such points at this staee of the game," emphasizing his remark by the flourishing of the gaTel which he held in his hand. This was erected with checers. BOMETHIKG l'M'81'AI. Catrrylnsr Out Plans Loud Down br Tbe Governor's Btecttns;. Raleigh, N. C-, May 10.

Street cieanliiK In Full Blast 8uu- tlnv Morning. Those of Ashcville's inhabitants who came down town before noon yesterday witnessed a sight that was unusual in this city that is, the sweeping of the streets on Sunday. Mayor Patton on Saturday afternoon notified Sanitary In spector Brevard that the streets of the business portion of the city and those leading to the principal churches must be cleaned up for Sunday. Mr. Brevard accordingly had the street cleaning corps at work until midnight, carrying out, as he thought, the wishes ol the Mayor. When the Mayor came down town yes terday morning, however, the looks of the sidewalks were not pleasing to the eye, because of paper, peanut hulls, etc., and be ordered the inspector to put a force of sweepers to work again. Air. lircvaru secured about a dozen men and as many brooms, and the work proceeded tor a couple ol hours, when the sidewalks as well as the streets were clean. Mayor Patton has instructed Mr. Brevard to notify the business men to keep their trash barrels inside their build ings until late in the afternoon, when thev may be set upon the sidewalk, to taken uo bv the trash watrons durum the eveninir. This Mr. Brevard has been doing today. l he matter of Sunday sweeping does not please the Sabbatarians and some adverse comment has been heard todav. Mayor Pattyn told The Citizen that he thought tbe condition of the streets jus tified the work, but hoped it would not necessary again. be RACES FRIDAY.

HI7P- Mayor Patton ana Advisor sill lard Spend couklderable Time Koltnic The Wnv Thlnica Work in Tbe Cllj's Sloraice Basin. Editor The Citizen : Dr. Millard and I considered the necessity such as to justify ua in devoting most of yesterday (Sunday) to the water system. A con siderable part of the time we were inside the reservoir, where we could best note the effect produced by the new pump. If you will please state our observations and conclusions, they may both interest and prove advantageous to tbe non- water using public. Early yesterday the reservoir was opened, and as much water admitted to the city as we deemed safe, reserving a small amount in case of fire. This reserve is indicated by a depth of four feet at the lowest portion of the reser voir floor. Please remember that the floor of the reservoir is not level, the perpendicular wall being twenty-two feet high on one side and only eleven feet on the other. The valve admitting water to the city was closed about O a. m . , and at 3:30 p. tn. the maximum depth was ten feet, tbe sloping floor beincr not quite covered. We then decided to turn it on again to the city, and although tbe new pump continued working at nineteen revolu tions per minute (its maximum being 20), and also a fairly good stream was coming in from the gravitation line, the water in the reservoir rapidly receded. so that by 5:30, i.e., in two hours, it had reached. the lowest point we dared to permit. Now considering that this was on Sunday, and all stores closed, including many of the largest consumers, it is very evident that an excessive waste is being permitted, and conscious of this the committee recommended last week the utmost economy in use ot water, which. of course, involved stopping unnecessary waste. I am sure when our citizens imnreciatc the great necessity of observing the rec ommendation of the committee, they will do so gladly. And therefore I beg you to give space to this communication this evening, as explaining the reason of this recommendation, at a time which seemed to you and probably to many others was so unpropitious as to sub ject your committee and their well con sidered recommendation to ridicule. Very respectfully, T. IV. Tatton. P. S. Please beg all persons having fountains or lawn sprinklers to refrain from using them until this great trouble is relieved. I know of at least two of these being used yesterday afternoon, while hundreds of people were suffering serious inconvenience for want of water. The Citizen's purpose is to uphold the Mayor and the Board in its desire to so bring this water question before the citizens of Asheville that there shall be the least possible waste. In some com ments made by The Citizbn last week in which nothing of ridicule was at all intended it was presumed that nearly all parts of the city were being as in sufficiently served with water as most, if" not all. of tbe residents of the western part of the city, in which case waste was next to impossible, for the reason that very little water was given them at all. But it is learned that water users on the west side of North and South Main streets have been in the predicament described largely because some at least of those nearer the reservoir have used the water wastcfully. This waste the Mayor is determined to stop, and all thoughtful citizens will give him every assistance in their power in tnis emer gency. Ed. The Citizen. THE NEW PUMP. The Nesroea Nav Thev 11 o Not Kxpect To Par Their Rents. W. T. Ilerritage, of The Citizen typographical force, returned Saturday from Newborn, where he has been visiting for the past two months. Mr. Ilerritage says that the trouble with the negro squatters at Jamea City is not yet settled, although it is considered so. Tbe hrst payment of rents will be due June 1. and many of the renters say they will not pay them. It is believed that the women are the real cause of the obstinacy on the part of their husbands. The men say that if they do not pay the rents the county will move them, and wherever their household ellects are set down there they expect to build. Charch Street Pavlnic. Tbe Central Methodist church people are not pleased with tbe action of the city autnontics in regard to the paying oj Church street. The Board's idea was to set the curbing in a direct line to Pat ton avenue, on the west side, leaving tbe question of a sidewalk on that side as tar as tbe church for future action. The church people fear that if the street is paved on the present plan it may be some time before they are able to get a walk on their side. The matter will probably come before the Board again. The HschlnerT Will Work tti(Tlv for cm While. The new Worthing ton water pump was started Saturday and ran all day yesterday. The machinery, because of its newness, worked stiffly, and was not run near up to its capacity. It is thought it will be in good working condition in a few days. The water supply has been on a portion of the time today and con sumers will be given water as often as it is possible. In a line with Mayor I'atton's re marks, in his letter, concerning the waste of water, The Citizen can say that on Saturday afternoon, when the water supply was very low, a hose was play ing upon one of the largest lawns ot the city, when other portions of the town were sadly in need of water for bouse purposes.
