The Savjuinah News prints the follow ing, which has been taken up ami com mented upon by other Southern papers, to the apparent discredit of Asheville: "The attention of the Morning News has been called to the fact that the au thorities of Asheville are requiring a fee oi $l lurcaen neaun ceriimutc issueu. Peoole returning from Asheville report that they were required to paythis tee in order to obtain certificates. There are still many Savannah people at Asheville and at other points in the same county who will have to pay this fee in order to obtain certificates with which to return home. Asheville is the only city of any importance so far heard from in the whole country that re quires n tee tor issuing health certih cates. In fact no city of even the least importance has hecn heard of which makes such a change. It looks strange that Asheville, which is so largely pat ronized by summer visitors from this sec tion, should charge returning visitors for certificates enabling them to reach their homes again. It looks like an effort to extract the last dollar from the visitor's pocket before allowing him to depart for the season. "Savannah's health officer has issued nearly 5,000 certificates within the last two months and not a single cent has been charged for them." A number of the physicians of the city were seen today by The Citizen regard ing the above statement and their replies were as follows: Dr. E. C. Hilliard: "I have never heard of such a thing being done by any physician in Asheville. The doctors and the Board of Health issue them without any charge whatever." Dr. H. B. Weaver : I have given cer tificates and have charged for them just as I would for prescriptions. The health board has no seal aad there is no one here to give an official certificate. I signed myself asa member ot the Health Board, but not as the exclusive member whose duty it was to give a certificate." Mavor Patton said that both he and City Clerk Miller had issued certificates and had put the city seal thereon, but that neither of the officials had made any charge therefor. The Mayor said: I have had applications from Arden and all parts of the county, and in every instance, so far as known they have gone through. If anybody wants a certifi cate I will he glad to issue it without any charge." Dr. M. H. t'letclicr said: I have is sued a number of certificates and have not charged for doing so." Dr. M. iMilIenrier said that he had not charged for certificates, and added : "It depends on the nature of the certifi cate whether the charge is a valid one or not. It an examination has to be made. 1 think that it should bechnrced tor. but if only that the person named is tree from contagious disease, then there should be no charge." Dr. A. M. Ballard: "I don't know that anyone has done it. I have nut heard of such a thing. I've not done it." Dr. A. Crawford: "I havenotchnrged anyone, and wouldn t think ol such a thing. Dr. W. D. Milliard : "I have not charged tor them, but 1 think they ought to be charged lor. Dr. J. A. Watson: "1 was called to Oakland Heights to givecertificates, and 1 charged tor them as I would tor anv other visit." Dr. J. A. Burroughs: "I have given a HOKE MORRIS DEAD. By All city, man since A. Youuk Mail Hclovcd Who Kuevt III in. Thomas Hoke Morris died at 11 o'clock this morning at the Western hotel. The news of his death will be a great shock to the people of the many of whom knew the young personally. Mr. Morris had been living here May last, and was especially active during the summer in connection with his position as pitcher of the Asheville Baseball club. He was universally liked for his quiet, gentlemanly manners, and his social nature made him most com panionable. In the latter part of July Mr. Morris was stricken with typhoid fever, and he made a stubborn fight for his life. The disease was beaten though severe hem orrhages in its later stages left the patient dreadfully weakened, and when symptoms of other complications set in grave tears were entertained ot his re covery. However, Dr. L. B. McBraycr, the physician, became more hopeful later niid until yesterday it was thought Mr. Morris would get welt. Late ia the a'ternoon, however, a change for the worse Became apparent to his watchers, and when his father arrived, there was no sig;n of recognition. His delirium then ceased and he remained unconscious till the end came this morning. The im mediate cause of death was inflamma tion of the bladder. The remains were taken to Mills liiver this afternoon, and the funeral will be tomorro w. The services will be held in the Mills River chapel at 11:30 o'clock. A number of Asheville friends will attend. PAWSEE BILL. The Wild West Show Coming; lo AMliet llle on the iotli. Pawnee Bill's H-'storic Wild West show will exhibit its wonders on Cumberland avenue on the loth. The aggregation as press notices from the principal cities where it has appeared and thev agree in ayinj that it was worth seeing. Among the incidents of the performance arc the exciting chase of the overland mail coach 1- road agents, attack and rescue bv the cow bovs, the splendid rifle shooting I rawnre JJiil and Aliss May Little, nd the horsemanship of the cowbovs. The Mountain Meadow Massacre, in which a desperate fight occurs between nutans and whites, is described as a scene which cannot tail to impress the pectators of the hardships endured by prairie men and the constant danger menacing them from the savages. This ts also shown in the attack on the wagon nun, crossing me plains, wncrc tne lecping travelers ate attacked by the reds, but fortunately a band of cowboys ppear on the scene hihI disperse the udiuns without loss ol life. The above mentioned scenes, together with the nirning ol old Trapper Tom's cabin, the 'awnec dance, hanging ol the horse thief, riding of bucking bronchos, etc., uiaues up a combination which tie serves patronage, and we predict large attendance at the park during their stay number of certificates. charged for them." hut have not CAl'CiHY IIS TKXAS.

At 1 :4r3 p. m. the Vigilant was leading by two miies and still gaining. This means a lead of more than lO minutes. The Vigilant turned the stake at 1:50; the Valkyrie at 1:51).
