The Whole Conntrv Along Tbe Line of Passage Join In Tbe Demonslrallona Tbe Funeral Car Covered Wllta Flowers. Montgomery, Ala., May 30. There was an imposing demonstration here yesterday as the remains of Jefferson Davis were born through the principle streets. Ity the caisson walked the pall bearers, 25 or 30 of the most promi nent citizens of Alabama, each wearing a purple satin rossette. By the side of the coffin a strong body of Confederate vet erans marched in fours. Then followed the Louisana veterans and behind these came a long line of infantry, a body of artillery men, squadron of cavalry and 50 cadets. The Alabama veterans formed in two lines at the capitol entrance and three maimed Confederate officers, two with battle flags, one the 04th Alabama, the other the 32nd Georgia, faced the coffin as it was borne up the steps. Then tney advanced and laid the worn and tattered flags on the casket. The band played a funeral march and the veterans with measured, swinging tread, followed the body inside the hall from the main entrance. Fully 10.000 jcop'c were outside the capitol before the departure of tbe train. Gkef.hshoko. N. C. Mav30. All niirht from Atlanta to Charlotte there were demonstrations along tbe route as the funeral train Hew by. Here it was a bon fire lighting up the crowd assembled at the track, and there cannon rang out. Gov. Tillman boarded the train at Green ville. He will go to Richmond and take prt in the ceremonies there. At Charlotte the Hornets Nests rifles and (Jueen City rifles fired three vollevs ;s the train moved m. A bodv of Con federate veterans was drawn ud in front of the line with a battle flag furled and draped in crape. On the left of the line were the naval reserves of North Caro lina in white duck suits. This company fired the presidential salute. Gen. Capers boarded the train to accomuanv the the cortege to Richmond. At Salisbury Major Withers, Gcnca! lohn II. Mor gan's adjutant general, came on with the battle flag of that command. At this noint n hire rrnwil flitQtit-rl about the funeral car and begged for one of the crushed and failed flowers that had fallen to the floor. Some were handed out bv the guards of honor and eagerly clutched. Then Captain Ram say's light battery, tbe 10th North Car olina, saluted. On went the train. In passimr the locomotive round bouse a workman. covered vt ith oil and grease, drew him self up as if on parade, reverently uncov ered, and so stood till the train passed from view. The funeral car is now loaded with flowers. Thcv arc heaped and piled at the bead of the casket for four feet out, and on the sides they had to be rearranged to allow passage. Some of the cards attached read as fol lows: "A tribute from lovintr hearts and will ing hands to the memory of our lielovcd chieftain, whose only crime was that he was a nation eclioice. Ladies' Memorial Association, Union Springs. Ala., Miss Kobman president, Mrs. I. L. Hanch secretary." 'In Southern hearts thv deeds nil shine as from a star sublime. Compli ments of C. W. Dradshaw. lieutenant- colonel Third North Carolina troops. Hoke's division." This was from Lucv Coll Institute. Athens, Ga., labelled: "For our chieftain: "Dead, but his spirit breathes: dead, but his ncnri is our; Dead, but his sunny lain! wreathes his crown wun tears lor dowers." This was another: Though my scarred ami veteran lesions ucixt mcir eagles men no more. And hit wrecked and sent ti-red Kullcys strew dark Actium's fatal ahor: Though no glittering guards surround me, prompt io ao mcir masters win, I must perish like a Roman, die u great tri- univcr still. ' A shield of magnolia buds was re ceived from the Ladies' Memorial asso ciation, of Athens. Ga. At Greensboro i ne nanus ana business houses were closed and a large crowd assembled and the corporate authorities breakfasted the escort. The train was met bv a pro cession ot veterans and citizens.

Grant's pharmacy, on South Main street, which has been in the hands of Assignee Jos. Ii. Dickcrson for several weeks, was closed for a time today un der an order of the court. Suit has been instituted in the Superior court against . S. Grant and Jos. Iv. Dickcrson by the Western Carolina bank, ISlumenthal & Bickert, Frank Lotigbran, Frank Coxc, Shoemaker & liuscli, O. W. Thumb & Co., French. Cave & Co.. Hall & Ruckle, Kobt. C. Urown, Powers- Taylor Drug Co. and Colgate & Co., creditors of Dr. Grant. One section of the complaint of the plaintiffs says that "the defendant made an assignment on February 10. 1893: that J. U. Dickcrson took into his pos session said deed of trust and collusively and secretly, by agreement and in com bination with said . t. Grant, held the sar' in his possession without the knowledge of the plaintiffs or any other creditor or person until some time about the UUtli ot April, when said Grant secretly, with intent to avoid service of process, us plaintills aver, departed from the State of North Carolina and vet se cretly remains out of the State. Said I. h. Dickcrson on the 29th of April had said deed ot trut duly recorded and immediately went into possession of all the property conveyed to him by said deed of trust, amounting, as the plain tiffs are informed and believe, to about $12,000. and has been and continues to rapidly dispose of the same, according to the terms of said deed of trust. "That said deed of trust is fraudulent and void on its face, and made and executed by the said J. S. Grant with ntcnt to hinder, delay and defraud the ilaintitTs and other creditors." The plaintiffs demand judgment for the amounts of the debts (several thousand dollars) and ask that the defendants be adjudged to account for all the property conveyed in the deed of trust, and for all proceeds arising from the sale or collec tion thereof; and that the defendants be in the meantime enjoined from disposing of any of said proiierty or paying out ol any ot the proceeds thereof, or in anv way interfering with the same. 1 1'C case was heard by luduc I. p. Graves at Murphy, where the court or dered the defendants to show cause at Swain county court on June 13, why they shall not be enjoined as asked for in the complaint. A temporary injunction was granted, restrainintr the defendants from disposing of the assigned property or paying out the proceeds thereof. 1 lie plaintills nre represented bv C. A. Moore, V. V. Jones, DulT Merrick and W. K. Whitson of Asheville. The store was opened this afternoon by agreement. T11IRTEKN TO ELKVKN. What In Happenliiir and -liat Will Happen There. Waynksville, May 20. Mr. Chatficld has been putting into first classcondition the White bulphur Springs hotel for its formal opening early next month.

Wil liam Graham, one of the oldest and tbe best known evangelists of Georgia, and bis aged wife were walking along the rauroau track, returning from church arm in arm, when the Nancy Hanks train, moving at full speed, ran upon them, raising tbem hieh in the air and hurled them down a steep embankment to instant dcatb. Atlanta Constitution, Defeat IMPROVE COUNTY ROADS WHAT" BUNCOMBK THI8 msx-;. NICKUli IN wtavervllle Baseballlsls Tbe Aslievllles, The Asheville ball tossers went to Weavcrvillc yesterday determined to win the second game from the Wcavervillcs f they could. Hut they evidently took a Jonah with tbem, for, try as they could, tbe boys from Kecms Creek and Mars Ilili j st wouldn't give up the game. A number of people went from Asheville ind these, added to the Weavcrvillc con tingent, made a good crowd. Everybody coached for his favorites, and the game, which was rather slow on account of the wet ground, was watched with the greatest interest. Asheville went to bat first and started in to whack the sphere out of sight, but the batters died on first in one. two. three order. Nelson, the Iclt-haiulcd pitcher for the Weavervilles, was all arms and hands and the Asbcvillcs did not appear able to knock the pigskin out of his bailiwick. Cliamljcrs. the first baseman, collided with another of his team and retired, liivinir place to Klouse, a six-footer who appeared to have a lodestone in his nippers, so diffi cult was it to keep the ball out of his hands. The first half, therefore, cave the Aslievillcs a goose egg for their pie. in the Weavervilles first half thcv roiicci up lour runs, following this score up in the second and third innings by md J. In the same innings Ashevillegot i and . l his left them 4- behind and they could not catch up, although thcv caused the opposing forces to put down on their score card three large and in fluential ciphers. The score at the close stood: Asheville, 11; Wcaverville, 13, and the latter had made good their promise to wm. T he game was marked bv good nlav ing on both sides, the work of Alexander, Young, Morris, Weaver and J. Fletcher of the Asbcvillcs, and of Klouse and Ncl son of the Weavervilles, being notable. Wild throws by Asheville had no small part in the defeat. The players and positions were: Asheville Young, c; J. Fletcher, lb; Morris, p.; Weaver, r. f ; Alexander, 3b; Lindsey, c. f; W.

Recently State Senator John M. Camp bell of this city received from the State Geological Survey a copy of tbe Bulletin on Rodds, issued by this department. He was so impressed by the publication that he wrote for 150 extra copies of the Bulletin. In reply to his letter he re ceived tbe folio winir communication from Prof. J. A. Holmes, the State Geo logist, which contains so much of general interest to Asheville and Buncombe county that Senator Campbell has kindly consented to allow The Citizen to print it. Prof. Holmes says : "I am glad that you think well of the Bulletin on Roads, and I send you by express the extra copies for which you ask. I most sincerely hope that the people of Buncombe county will vote the $250,000 in bonds for improving our public roads. She will never regret this step. Many counties buyc voted this amount and more, and not a one of them has gone back on the movement, or shown any desire to do so because everywhere in America, Europe, Aus tralia and other countries, monev in vested in good ro"ds has brought better and more prompt returns than almost any other investment, and it brings good returns to every citizen, poor or rich, whether be rides or walk. "I know of no other countr in North Carolina where money invested in better roads will bring larger and more prompt returns than in Buncombe. The steady growth of Asheville in size and wealth is a matter of pride with every citizen of the State: and her street improvement during the past rear, and now in progress, is doin much to make her future prosperity secure. But there is much yet to be done. Asheville should be the center for information, trade. and influence for practically all your mountain counties and she is gaining in the accomplishment of this aim. But the victory is far .from beimr won. As I travel through that region 1 find drum mer wagons from Knoxville and other places selling goods at country stores even within the borders of Buncombe county. Good roads leading out in every direction from Asheville would do much to remedy this condition of things. uut tne people ot Buncombe county cannot expect the people of Asheville to do more than their share in this great work of public improvement; and the people of the county should understand clearly that as long; as Asheville has good streets and the county has poor roads, as is now the case. Asheville will flourish and the county suffer. The traveling public will not leaye tbe railroads for the country as long as the put roads continue rough and muddy as they now are. Nor will intelligent and thrifty farmers pur chase land and Fettle hi country regions where these roads exist. "purine the past two rears the Geo logical Survey has been investigating the mineral and timber resources ol these mountain counties, and we will distrib ute reports on some ot these subjects at the World's Fair. We have also pre pared and will exhibit at Chicago a number of large vhotoirranhs illustra ting the scenery of the mountain region. Wc are doing everything possible by these means, and by exhibiting samples of our minerals and timbers at the World's Fair, to attract capital and set tlers to this region during the next few vcars. But do what wc mav in these di rections the bad roads of the region stand as a barrier in the way of ma terial development of the country. I do hope that Buncombe county wilt make a great step forward by fioing to work in earnest to have good roads." Senator Campbell will distribute the Bulletins sent him among the magis trates of the county when they meet here next Monday. GRANT'S PHARMACY !
