account ot the sinking ot the war snip

The weather was sunny. There was
no breeze. The sea was smooth as a

in double line. Abreast they were about
six cable lengths apart. The bow of
each vessel was two cable lengths from
the stern of the vessel ahead. At fcbout
3 o'clock the fleet was thus approaching
Tripoli.
Admiral Tryon signalled the order for

Another account says:
About 2 o'clock last Thursday after

Necbe, the Chicago anarchists, brinus to
mind a conversation The Citizen had
with I. M. Kuehler, private secretary to
Gov. Altgi Id, during the visit of the
Governor and his party to Asheville a
few months ago. Mr. Kuenler was speak
ing of the influences that were brought
to bear anil the reports that were circu

election. Oneot these stories, Mr. Kuebler
said, was to the effect that the candidate
was an anarchist or sympathized with
the anarchists. "One man," said Mr.
Kuebler, 'made that remark to me and
1 told him there were at least 10 argu
ments by which the charge could be dis
proved.' He asked lor them. We were
then near Gov. Allgeld's tine building in
Chicago. I pointed to the great pile and
aske.i "Do you see that structure?' 'Yes.'
'Well, that building is 10 storks high and
each storv is an argument against the
charge that Gov. Altgcld is an anarchists
There are more, but I have given you lti.'
"The man to whom I spoke," concluded
Mr. Kuebler. "had no more to say on

The committees ol the Y. M.C. A. have
for some time been considering how best
to do a more aggressive work among the
young men ot Asheville. Several propo
sitions have been made but the one con
sidered most favorably is in connection
with the Grand opera house. The pro
prietors have made a verv generous offer
in rates, a price lower thau ever offered
liefore. and this has encouraged the Y.
M. C. A. to undertake this special work.
The plan is to have an interesting
musical and song service lasting halt an
hour and an address by pastors and other
talent from this city and abroad. These
meetings will be continued through the
summer on consecutive Sundays. Ad
mission, as heretofore, will be by ticket.
There will be orchestra and vocal music,
and chorus singing, tor which song cards
will be provided. Rev. K. G. Pearson,
the ev.-ini?clist. known all over the South,
has consented to speak next Sunday.
This announcement will ol itself be suf
