The Aslievilleian who uses city water is out only called on now to pay li is wuter rcut for the current qtiurter, but tie has to pay considerably more than he did last quarter, the Board of Aldtnncu hav ing raised the rate. This action was taken at yesterday's meeting ol the Board. It would have becu taken s oner but tor the fact that until yesterday there bad been ro meet ing of tbe Board since August 31. The increase in the water r te is 00 per cent., and it was totally unexpected to the great majority of the wuter consumers. It is done, it is said, because the citv will need tbe increased revenue to be thus de rived, in meeting its expenses. At tbe meeting vesterduy the nuance committee submitted a report of the estimated recciptB and expenditures of the city lor thecurrem vear, and asked that, should t lie report meet theapproval of the Bouid, a resolution be adopted voicing that approval, together with the resolve that every possible effort would be made to conturra to tbe same. Then a resolution was suggested that tbe su perintendent 01 the wuter department be instructed to increase tbe water rates by adding thereto 50 per cent., tbe increase to take effect on and after the first day of October. Which means it is in effect now. The report was tignid by Alderman Redwood ami the Mayor and wut adopted. According to tins increased tabic 01 rates, each house occupied by one family of six persons o .' less will pay $7.50 a year instead ol 3w; cacti bath tub in pn vate family, $;t; cneb lawn or yard sprinkhr, $7 50; each fountain, six months, six huurs a d.iy, !h inch jet, $30, and soon. In lit: cases of the ho tels, the change makes a gtcat difference. The Battery Park, for instance, which according to the old lit was chargen $000, will be tnxed at $000 a year; atpi the Glen Rock, S.viiiinanoa and Berkeley $180 enclia ear. There will no tlou'it be murmutings but it's done now, and Superintendent Murray has his notice to water consilium nt I ttu l rn.KN todav.

Six long and dreary years agoue, as the dime novel writer woulJ put it, but on t!ic second day of July, 18HS, as the ever day writer would say, there lived in Buncombe, west of the French Broad, a yot;ng man of the name of 7.

At the last term but one of Criminal court Jim Floyd, alias Dave Floyd, white, was given a berth with Capt. White's zebras on the gang. But Floyd finally got out, as convicts will do. With hiin things went along smoothly for awhile, but the pressure of enforced peace keep, ing was too great for bitn bear always. So last night, bubbling over with a desire to be reul devilish and tough, Floyd ran amuck through West End. Oo West Haywood he met Landon Erwin. "I don't believe you would do any thing if a man would beat you to death," Floyd said to Krwin. Thereupon Floyd clubbed Erwin vig orously and went on to the railroad at the old depot, where he came across J. E. Sumner, who was carrying a lantern. Floyd told Sumner he must not let the light shine in his face and fell to beating Sumner. As soon as he tired ol this con quest Floyd went to the bridge where he lound Robert Erwin whittling a stick. He .commanded Robert to drop the knife into the French Broad, but Robert demurred anil Floyd begau belaboring the youth. But there is such a thing as having too much fun, and Floyd found it out. He met his match in u policeman who was called in, and the result of bis little per formance was an interview with Justice Frank Carter this morning. The bond was $100 in each case, $300 in all, and F'loyd will go to court once more. UAl'K TO CANADA. Mr. nml Mi'M. W. II. Weir to Ui-timi to Tlieli' Old Homo Aiilii. The many friends of Mr. end Mrs. W. II. Weir will learn with regret ol their departure from Asheville. They return to their old home in Montreal, where Mr. Weir bns business interests requiring his attention. Mr. Weir and family cume to Asheville two years ago for the benefit of their son and daughter, who were in delicate health. Both nave completely recovered. All who know Mr. Frank Weir can tes tilV to this. Mr. Weir remarked to Tut; Citizkn todav that bis son never once required the services ot a physician while in Asheville. "This," he added, "speaks volumes for Asheville climate." Mr. Weir is a great believer ia the fu ture of Asheville and backed his opinion by investing in Asheville property be sides bis home on Cumberland n venue, which he sold last May to Mrs Bestor of Washington. Mrs. Bestor and family will occupy their new home at once. During their stay here Mr. and Mrs. Weir made manv warm friends, whom they regret having to leave. During their residence Mr. Weir was the means of bringing a great many Canadians to Asheville. All Asheille hopes to sec them here again. INTKItF.ST ItKVIVINti.

He took a lively interest iu any movement that tended to bring additional railroad facilities to Bun combe doors. When Capt. Atkinson died considerable correspondence with regurd to railroads bad accumulated. This has been taken up by his son, E, B Atkinson, who is now in correspondence with many prominent railroad men who live in cities which turn toward Asheville as an obj :ctivc poiut for a new connect ing link. Renewed interest has been awakened in the Atlanta, Asheville and Baltimore road, the projectej connection between Asheville and Bristol, Tenit. Mr. Atkin son has received communications which speak in confident terms about the line, and he expects soon to have interested railroad men here to look over the ground w ith a view to taking some de cisive steps.

Chicago, Oct. 2 Tbe United States court of appeals this morning rendered n decision reversing in part Judge Jenkins famous decision in tbe Northern Pacific injunction case. Theinjunction restrained railroad men from striking. Justice Harland's decision says: 'In the absence of legislation, the right of one in tbe service of a quasi-public corporation to withdraw therefrom whenever be sees fit must be deemed so far absolute thpt the courts cannot in terfere. It is one thing, however, lor a single individual or several individuals, each acting on his own responsibility, to quit work and quite a different thing in tbe eye ol the law for many persons to combine or conspire together with the intent not simply of asserting their rights by peaceable methods, but of em ploying their united tfforts to injure others or the country. It seems entirely clear that any combination or conspir acy on tne part ot tnese employes would be illegal which had for its object the crippling of property in the hands of re ceivers.
