His condition is very critical this morning." Mr. Iiooth revived from the relapse of a week ago Saturday until last Saturday when lie grew worse again suddenly. lie was attacked with an exhausting (it of vom iting, during which it was feared he would suffocate. Dr. Smith was hastily summoned, but despite his lest effort Iiooth grew weaker and weaker. Mr. McGuuinlce, Months brother-in- law, sat tip last night nt the flying actor's bedside with a trained nurse. Iiooth seined to lc suffering from want of air. Three windows in his room were ocii at top and bottom and the curtains were drawn aside to admit as much oxygen as possible. About J a. m. he fell into a troubled slumber. A bulletin issued at noon by Dr. Smith concerning Iiooth s condition, stated that there was no perceptible change, but that his condition is considered so critical that his daughter and her hus band have remained constantly beside his bedside prepared for a sudden change lor the worst.

Dr. James Iicob of the Second Presbyterian church, this city, in yesterday's sermon renounced his allegiance to the Presbyte rian denomination because of the decis ion ot tlie Ocueral Assembly in the Urigg's case. Dr. Ecob's church is one of the most influential in the city and has a congre gation made up of intelligent coplc. He said : 'I leave the Presbyterian -church be cause it has taken on a garment that has Iain buried in the grave for more than two centuries. It smells of earth and of death. I brush it off forever." He gave his reasons for leaving, saying that he considered that further battcling of questions would be but guerilla war fare with but little hope for the success of the minority. He characterized the general assembly as "the most intoler ant, bigoted and reactionary body of all religious denominations." mm; to five:. Keel Hot FX2CIH2. HUMBOLDT, SPANOILAS- J.

Tmi CrriZKN baseball nine and the North Asheville Seconds crossed bats on Montford avenue Saturday afternoon and. despite the rain that came down during two innings, played a very inter esting fi vc-innings game, more so than cither of the two games heretofore played. Tiik Citizkns were first to bat aud managed to get in one run, to which figure they held the North Ashevilles in their half. The latter goose-egged the printers in the second and proceeded to dishearten the tvpos by scoring three men. The third, however, was the rally ing joint and the hoys from the north end took their turn at looking sick as Tli K Citizkns sprinted 'round the dia mond four times, and then went to iicld to give the North Ashevilles a cipher to paste in their caps. In the fourth Tin: Citizkns repeated the work they did in the third, making lour runs to their op ponents' nothing. They were shut out however, in the tilth, while the rnorth Ashevilles scored one. At the end of the game the score was: The Citizkn. O; North Asheville, 5.

Tim Citizkn has received from S. W. Callahan & Bros., Knoxville, Tenn., contractors for stone on the city hall, a letter from which the following is taken: "Not at any lime did wc offer or sug gest to Mr. Tenncnt a commission, nor did he ever ask us to furnish the stone We were requested by the architect to make a bid, which we did and Mr. Tcn nent did not know of our intention to bid till we came to Asheville. We wish farther to sav that no man received (or was offered) any commission on any work wc did for the citvof Asheville, aud we do not do business that way. 1-rom Fitzpatrick lirothcrs: "Mr. Tennent bought a great deal of material of us for the market house and city hall, and will say that Mr. Tennent nevjr asked or suggested that wc make any discounts to him. We consider him a man above asking for any such conces sions, We cannot sjieak to highly ot Mr. Tenncnt'S dealings with us." 1-rom IJ. c.

On Saturday evening the newly elected Board of Health met to discuss the all- important interests - placed iu their charge. Those present included Mayor Patton, Alderman Gudgcr, City Lvngiuccr Lee, aud Drs. Fletcher, fordan and Weaver, l)r, Hilliard being detained by a surgical case. After reading the act creating the new board, they organized by electing Mayor 1 atton chairman and Dr. Jordan secretary. Alter a lull and most interesting dis cussion it was decided that under the law an expert sanitary inspector, who is dependent tor salary on tees from prop erty owners, cannot be elected until a thorough svstem of plumbing, etc.- is devised by the Board of Health and sub mitted to the Board ol Aldermen. This will necessarily involve some delay: but the act authorizes the Board of Health alone to elect other officers and em ployes. It was therefore concluded to divide the city into two sanitary dis tricts. (divided by a line from North Main street and city limits, running with North Main to Water street, with Water to Willow, wit h Willow to Church. with Church to South Main, with South Main to city limits.) and to elect for each district a sanitary officer with a salary of Sou a month. It was then decided to hold this elec tion on Tuesday evening at 8:30 o'clock and the meeting adjourned to that time. THE BEIT IRAND ON THE MARKET ! all. carry a Via.

My object was stated to be that the county commissioners might be present. I now remember that a large number of magistrates will also be in town today: therefore it seems still more desirable to have this conlcrcncc tonight. hach of these magistrates is a man ol influence in his own neinhborhood. Let us invite them to take part iu this nntia torv step which is the most important of all. Let us start the scheme right, mid I hoic it will succeed. Kcsiiectfully, J. IV. 'atton. Followintr Mayor I'ntton's suggestion. The Citizkn today talked with several prominent citizens, who, alter consulta tion, concluded it best not to hold the meeting this evening. Mayor I 'atton in sists, however, that the meeting should have been held, in order that the railroad question could be presented to the Jtco- ple ot Huncotnlic county outsue ol the city of Asheville at the earliest oppor tunity.
