NEW GOODS LOW PRICES Miss Bllunle E. Dfckson, a Teach er In the Yellow Hill Indian School, Engagt Herself to Rlebard smith, a son ofCblel Mini rod Bmllb. Readers of Tub Citizicn have been Riven short allusions by correspondents at various times to a romance amoiijj tbc Cherokee Indians in the western part of the State. All of the story, I however, was not heard until today, when a gentleman who is acquainted with the facts gave them to The Cm- ZEN. For" some time one of the teachers in the Indian training school at Yellow Hill has keen Miss Minnie E. Dickson of I Jamestown, N. Y. Soon after going to the school Miss Dickson became ac quainted with Richard II. Smith, and ncre tnc romance Deems. Mnitn is a TtTTTTTTTTTTT Don't Fox-tret It. son of Chief Nimrod Smith, of tbc Cher okee tribe, about 27 years old and in appearance a very prcpossessincr vouni; Indian. Miss Dickson is nearly ol Smith s 5 and BO cent counters. They are I aCe and is a daughter of a Bautist cler gyman in Jamestown. Despite the bar riers tnat were lc t ween these vouni; people, a mutual attachment snranc un and within two months of the time of their first meeting Mr. Smith and Miss Uickson were engaged to be married. Not long ago Prof. Andrew Spencer, government superintendent of the Indian school and also Indian agent, decided to dispense with Miss Dickson's services in the school, so informed her and noti fied the department, this step being taken, it is understood, because Mis; Dickson was not thought suitable tor the work among the Indians. The suspension of Miss Dickson, oi course, did not please her Locbinvar, and he began to investigate and take a hand in the matter, working with all his might, in true lover-like fashion. A number of friends of the engaged couple also took an interest in the case, the hrst of the kind, perhaps, ever known on the reservation, un.l the allair was reported to the Great Father at Washington. The government at once sent a sin-cial Iff -ilj n I agent to look into the facts of Miss 1V. KJ Iv I Dielcsnn'a susnensinn nnH renort to the department. This agent, Mr. Cooper, spent some time investigating as to the tacts and then went back to Washing ton, where he will make a report. The fact that Miss Dickson had become engaged to young Smith, (whose name in the Indian tongue is Cha-lali-kec) was communicated to her parents, and they earnestly oppose the match. However, their daughter is ol age and can do as she pleases. One obstacle in the path of the lovers, however, is tbc law of North Carolina, which does not allow the intermarriage of the races. 1 U W li L L Ot O IN 1 1 J H, rV. I is not known, but the case is a very un usual one and is being watched by every- body acquainted with the tacts.

At 9:30 o'clock the moderator opened the Presbyterian General Assembly with prayer. After the disposition of some routine business Dr. Baker, chairman of the judicial com mittee, presented a report recommend ing that six complaints ot J. J. Mc Cook and others against the New York synod growing out of the trial of Prof. Briggs be carried to a judicial commis sioner for trial. This gave rise to an informal discussion during which the (ueslion was asked whether or not the New York svnod had met since tbc charges were filed. Moderator Craig : "We bave a certifi cate from the stated clerk that the charges are in order, and we cannot go behind the returns." Laughter. The recommendations ot the committee were adopted appointing a committee to visit the proper officials and learn whether or not it was the intention to observe the requirement that tbc World's Pair be closed on Sunday. Moderator Craig resolved the assem bly into a judiciary body and Dr. Briggs made a sccch in defence ol the New York Presbytery, in the case of the prosecution ugainst him and in opposi tion to tbccntcrtainingof anappcal iVom the judgment ol the Presbytery thereon.

Chicago, May 2C. March weather put a dnnijicr on the exposition today, but the crowds passed through the gates just the same. Arrangements are being made to open gates next Sunday and only the intervention of the courts can prevent the decision of the directors from being put into effect for the first time. niillTIMK HOUR.

The Richmond and Danville's annual pamphlet of "Summer Homes" is just out, and City Ticket Agent Murphy has given The Citizen a copy. Of Ashcvillc the pamphlet says: "Asheville, a charm ing mountain city, can boast of finer hotels, more facilities for entertaining the tourist or invalid, than any other summer resort in the country." Marring mistakes, the publication is attractive. For instance, a picture of Oakland Heights Is published, while a line under the cut informs the reader that the building is the Oaks hotel. The name of the Battery Park's manager is printed "McKisscck, and Dr. von Kuck is credited with the proprietorship of the 'WinEate." Mrs. A. T. Summey's name as proprietress ot a boarding house is printed summerby." 1 he pamphlet also contains maps anil schedules of general interest to the traveler through the section truvcrsed by the R. & D. lines.

A bevy of pretty girls arc on a strike at Charles City. 1 hey were employed as com positors on tbc Advocate, a local paper. A short time ago the pro prietor noticed that some of the girls set very little type on several mornings the week, ana, upon investigation discovered that the girls had been enter taining masculine company until a late hour on the previous even ing. The result was a peremptory order that every cirl in his employ should go to bed at 0:30 o'clock every evening. 1 he girls refused to obey, and every one of them walked out. The publisher is now running on a short force and is vainly seeking to compromise with the strikers on 10:30 as an hour for retiring. SHOT THROUGH THE HIvART. t o 3 a & s a O c O v.

Kditor The Citizen: Last night at 1 1 o'clock I was notified of a bad break in the pipe near the pumping station. which would effectually cut off the water supply. Fortunately I succeeded in reaching by telephone Police Officer (lcnn, who, accompanied by M. II Kelly, the excellent plumber, soon came to my house for consultation. At that late hour Mr. Kelly readily undertook to so nvc miles and make repairs, the i necessary vehicle, hands and tools were made ready by Officer Glenn,- and at 6 o'clock this morning I received a message that the pump could resume work. In the name of the community, I think it right that I should thank Mr. Kelly lor his prompt assistance and to commend Officer Glenn for bis intelligent perform ance of a duty somewhat apart from tnat ordinarily belonging to bis position, I .
