Kogcra to the position of cliicl clerk in the Aslicvillc office, to wliicli position' is ttachccl the salary of $ 1,800 a year.' Mr. Rogers was appointed on July 3 to the iosition of cashier in this office, and the promotion was made before he had assumed charge of the office. Mr. Ropers came in from bis home in Macon ounty yesterday, and is now busy learning the ropes" from Chief Clerk Nichols. The new chief will take charge formallv in a few days, and expects to l)i inir bis lamily to AshcTlllc in the near future. Revenue Acent Cohiuitt, who was re cent.!? appointed to aucceed H. . Swift in this district, arrived last niKht and as been consultine with Collector Iilias oday with regard to the business in the ist net. Mr. Colquitt is a brother oi '. S. Senator Colquitt of Georgia. A delegation of McDowell men cumc p -yesterday and have talked tod.-iv with the Collector concerning candidates for deputy collector in that division. The delegation is composed of J. F. Mor phew. G. II. Gardin, . H. Hemphill, John Carson, W. Mcl). Hurjrin, and R. W. Brown of Marion, J. C. Sandlin and J. T. Reed of Old Fort. The delegation wish McDowell made into a division of itself. as there are some 30 distilleries in that county alcne. Until recently there were 1G divisions in the district, but the num ber was cut down to 13. An endeaver will be made to have the old number of divisions re-established. Geo. W. Tilson. who a few davs aco was offered by Collector Hlias a position n the revenue service at a compensation of $2. GO a day and expenses and who declined, gives Thk Citizen his reasons lor the declination, lis says that at first glance the par st'rms all right, but that really wages arc drawn only for such time as the officer may le in actual service. Mr. Tilson made aii cxnmina- ion of the records of the office and savs he found that the best record made hv an officer in this branch of the service was an average oi $ to a mouth. Ordi narily the compensation amounts to roni to .to a month. And this is why Mr. Tilson declined. Mr. Tilson was an applicant for the hief clerkship in the Collector's oflicc. and was very stroncly endorsed bv prominent Democrats in every part of t lie district. IN HOT WEATIIEU KEEP COOJ, !

Wuavervillk, N. C, July 12. The institute was opened ibis morning by C. U.Chambers. The enrollment of teach ers has reacliiJ 51. Remembering the fact that two other institutes are to be held at different points in the county this is a large number. The work of the program was continued by a lecture on "How to Teach Reading," by Mrs. Mc Dowell of the Weavervillc college. Like all her intellectual work this was dis tinguished by great clearness in the de velopment of the general plan: accuracy' and fullness In giving and illustrating the details; and force grace, and elegance in the presentation and expression of both. 1 he educational value, the ennobling mental influence, and the literary beau ties of the study of history, were all por trayed with the skill and power of an en thusiastic scholar and teacher, by Mrs. . VV. Hranch. ol Asheville. That a knowledge of lTnitcd States history is one of the essential elements in that in telligence which is requisite to good citi zenship, could hardly have been more fully demonstrated, or more eloquently i pressed by any of our statesmen. Along what paths the student should j travel, and how to guide him therein, to' obtain this knowledge most easily and exactly, could not have been "better taught. There was (and there could be) but one comment on this really splendid paper admirable. It was mown by Mrs. Mcliowill. that the "dry" and "unintelligible" subject ol grammar as frequently taught may be made interesting. beautiful, and easily comprehended when given to the stu dents in a natural and rational manner. Of course her "method" cannot be de tailed and illustrated bcre. Having ac quired the "habit" of doing everything better tban anybody else, she made no apparent effort to overcome it in this lecture. I speak for teachers and people, as well as myself, when I say that Misses Annie Weaver and Miss Nannie C. Weaver, and Mrs. McDowell and Mrs. ltrancli have our most heartfelt thanks for their valu able and beautilul papers and lectures. "How to improve our public schools was discussed until the hour of adjourn ment by the Suerintcndcnt,bv Hon. ohn VV. btarnes and Dr. I. I,. ai. Curry. At ' o'clock Dr. Curry again ad dressed the teachers and people. Of course it was an earnest, sensible, able and eloquent speech, full of sound and valuable information and advice to the teachers, especially to C IS. Why. A IIuppi Dav Hpenl, UeHplie tlie Wall for current. It has been rumored that the First Presbyterian church never has been, is not and never will be in favor of Sunday school picnics. If the first part of the rumor is true, the second and last cer tainly arc not. The heartiness with which the F. P. Sunday school entered nto yesterday's outing showed the genuine picnic spin t. At 10 o clock the Sunday school scholars, teachers and parents were rounded up in the lecture room, counted, ticketed with bits of ribbon, and marched to the government building to wait for the electric cars chartered to take the party to Sulphur Springs. One car was in waiting and was promptly packed with 50 or more of the picnickers; and for nearly an hour these patient ieople, mostly children, waited in the car, while the rest of the party camped on the lawn or played ball, lean bags, etc. The second car was not on hand, and there wasn't any cur rent; but perhaps the ball-hundred canned picnickers in car number one tlioucht they could furnish the icllv Soon after 1 1 the other car appeared the lawn party climbed in and the picnic- was lairly begun. When the party reached Sulphur Springs and the refresh ment committee began to unpack the baskets and set the table in the pavilion, it seemed that the traditional twelve baskets might be filled with the trag mcnts, after all had been fed. Hut the children had brought picnic apiietites, and the lunch, though varied and abun dant, was not much too bountilul. Mrs. 1-itzpatrick. who is summcrine at the Springs, kindly furnished delicious coffee and country cream. C. K. Graham led the children in their altcr-dinner games to their great delight. Thanks arc due W. A. Latimer for his uift of 100 wooden plates, and to Thad. W. Thrash for his loan of tin cups. About 100 pic nickers went out in the first cars, some drove out in the morning and a number joined the party later in the day. The picnic was a complete success and those who stayed at home may well sigh for wnat they missed. AN OVERLAND K Of TIC. Out tie ii national Htorv tteut From RalelKh, New York, July I t.

"I am here on a purely pleasure trip,' said Dr. Charles Kerns, of Covington Ky., when seen at the Glen Rock hotel today. "I came overland, leaving home on the 2d. and reaching here on Monday last.

Tlie l'lsttit on Tillman's Hill In South Carolina Mas Mow Fairly Beinn-A Case For The Supreme Court Irregularly Appointed. Coi.rMiilA, S. C, July 14-. Temporary injunctions closing Greenville and Waltcr boro dispensaries have been granted liy Judges Norton ami Aldrich. I'tiixrs arc being prepared in other counties to se cure temporary injunctions to be tol- lowcd by an effort to make them per manent on allegations solely of irregu larity in the appointment of dispeusors. Tbc constitutional fight will tic left to an appeal from Judge Henderson's decision in the Darlington case to the Supreme court. If Judge Hudson's de cision is sustained South Carolina will have the most ritrid prohibition in the world, for then liquor could not be ob tained in cases of sickness, ncr alcohol for druggists prescriptions, nor wine lor the communion table. The celebrated Ivvaus act opens with the prohibition of the sale or manufacture of liquorc save through the State dispensary. Juilje Hudson decides the prohibition to lie constitutional ai.d the dispensary unconstitutional. IT WILL BE PROHIBITION IF THE DI8PEN8ARV 18 rOI NU I'NCOISSTITUTIONAI, THIS WAR IN HI AM. An United states War ship Mav lie Sent There. London, July 14. A dinpatcb from Bangkok, capital of Siam, states that 20 Siames were killed and 14 wounded during the exchange of fires between the forts and the French gunboats, which forced a passage of the bar in the face of contrary orders from the Siames government. Washington, July 14. The only offi cial news of the trouble between the French and the Siames received at the State department was contained in a cable from Acting Consul General lioyil, at Bangkok, stating that alter an hours engagement the French vessels had passed the forts below Hangkok. It is not the present intention of the depart ment to specially dispatch an American war vessel to the scenes of the war in view of the fact that American inter ests in Siam arc insignificant, being con fined to a small trade in teak wood. Nevertheless it is apprehended that if the war assumes formidable proportions the Siames may make it very unpleasant for foreign residents including the few Americans there, as hostilities are apt to be characterized on the one side by the summary the proceedings known to Siam. If this state of aflairs obtains, however, the United Slates will not be without a vessel in Siam's waters as the United States steamer Concord now on her way to Lima will be in that neighborhood in the course of two months.
