Vance Has Them Removed from the Lot to Which Mrs. Vance Had Them Transferred Last Week. Asheville, N. 0. All that 1& mortal of Zeb Vance-, the body that on the 18th of April was buried in Riverside Cemetery, overlooking the beautful French Broad rivet, about which he wrote poetic words in life, has become the object of the most unfortunate wrangle in the immediate family of the beloved dead. Last Wednesday, eeven weeks after the interment, it will be remembered, Mrs. Vance came to Asheville and very quietly had the remains of the Senator removed from the grave in the old Vance lot in Riverside Cemetery to the spot that she bad chosen and purchased for the purpose. This is the highest and most beautiful part of the cemetery, and it was planned that the monument to Vance's memory should be erected over this spot. But the body was not deetined to remain in its new grave long. Chas. N. Vance learned of the removal and came here Saturday evening. Some time Saturday night or before day Sun day morning the remains were again disinterred and placed in the family plat where they were first buried, be side the grave of his first wife, young Vance's mother, where, it is under stood, Charlie Vance is determined tbey (shall remain if thore be any pos sible way of enforcing his wishes. The grave has been guarded by a special officer since Sunday morning. It is said he agreed to the removal of his father's body provided Mrs. Vance would allow the re-interment of the Senator's first wife by his side, bat this Mrs. Vance would not do. This wrangle as to the permanent resting place of the beloved dead is depli red by the people here, and it is feared that it will have an unfavorable effect upon the movement of organizing monument associations throughout the State. Three Hundred Miles in a Row Boat. (Danville Register.) The Norfolk Virginian of Wednes day contained the following: The ec centric passenger who came up with Captain Jones on the steamer Lucy, from Plymontb, N. C, yesterday, was evidently determined to get to Norfolk without paying railroad fare. In com pany with his valet he accomplished, in a small, open row boat, the 300 miles distance between Danville and Plymouth, passing down the Dan river to the Roanoke, and thence to the North Carolina sounds. He left Dan ville on the 13th of March and arrived at Plymouth on Saturday, June 6tb, lacking only four days of being three months on his ntrange journey. At Plymouth he took passage on the Lucy, the bounds being too rough for him even after his passage of the rapids in the Dan and Roanoke. He carried his provisions and an old stove with him in his boat. He has often before made trips in strange ways,tramjiug through the mountains in winter, and once coming to Norfolk on a bicycle. What his next venture will be is not known, but it is unlikely that he will return by the same route he came. Whoishe? THE RICHMOND & DANVILLE SOLD.

The Court of Inquiry Convict Officers ano Privates. Coi-miBiA, S. C The court of in quiry appointed by Governor Tiliman to inquire into the conduct of the mil itary companies which refused to go to Darlington during the dispensary troubles, made a voluminous report as to the three Columbia companies and four others. As to the Governor's Guards, of Columbia, the court says Captain Bateman was guilty of diso beying orders, but in doing so he was influenced by a belief that to attempt to carry the company out of the armo ry would precipitate a riot. No other officer or member was guilty of any disobedience of orders. Those mem bers who threw down their arms in the presence of the governor at his man sion were guilty of unbecoming con duct, but were "laboring under great excitement. The court found that Captain Alston, of the Richland Volunteer a Colum bia company, disobeyed no orders nor waa guilty of any conduct unbecoming an officer. He is commended for his determination to do his whole duty, having left a sick bed. No officer or member was guilty of disobeying or ders. As to the Zouaves, Captain Capers was guilty of disobeying orders and of conduct unbecoming an officer in en couraging his officers to disobey the governor's orders. With the excep tion of Lieutenant Fro6t and a few members, the Zouaves were guilty ol disobeying orders. The Jenkins Ri fles were guilty of deliberate disobe dience in refusing to go to Columbia when ordered. The Gordon Light In fantry, of Winnsboro, Captain Jordan waB guilty of premeditated disobedi ence and is solely responsible for the failure of his company to come to Co lumbia. As to the Catawba Rifles, of Rock Hill, Captain Reed and Lieuten ant Harrison were guilty of disobedi ence. The commissioned officers and ten men, the Gordon Volunteers, ol Hampton, disobeyed no orders. Othei members disobeyed, but from business considerations and not from a desire to shirk the services required of them Governor Tillman has not decided what he will do about it. The court finds that the conduct of Major Arthur Metts, of the Palmetto regiment, was unbecoming an officer and prejudicial to military discipline in counseling the Governor's Guards not to go to Dar lington. The Newberry Cotton Mill Annex. Work on the large annex to the New berry (S. C.) Cotton Mills i6 moving right along, and the walls will soon b ready for the second floor. The build ing is being erected according to th latest approved plans in mill engineer ing. Stephen Greene & Co., mill en gineers of Providence, R. I., are tht architects who furnished the plans, and they certainly know their business The very latest improved machinery has been purchased for the annex to the null, and when completed the fac tory will be second to none of similar capacity in the State. The woik of building the mill is be ing done by W. T. Davis & Co., of Newberry. The brick is made by J P. & T. C. Pool, of Newberry, and I might say here what perhaps cannot be said to the same extent by many mills, that its management is wholly in charge of Newberrians, who have made it a success. Its capital stock is more largely held by home people than that of other mills in the State, and the stockholders possessed at the begin ning so great faith in the ultimate suc cess of the enterprise that they have held on to their investment, and there has been less changing and buying up of stock among them than the croakers predicted at the organization of the company eleven years ago. Newberry is proud of the splendid record the Newberrv Cotton Mills has achieved in the financial and commercial work, and when its 25,000 spindles are "hum ming on the hill" we will only be quickened to do still greater things. A TRAGEDY IN BIRMINGHAM. Kolb' 8 Leading Supporter Kills the Son of of Ex-Mayor. Birmingham, Ala. P. G. Bowman, a lawver and leading advocate of Ren ben Kolb for Governor, shot and al most iu6tantly killed Eugene Jeffers, the 21-year-old son of Thomas Jeffers, ex-mayor of this city, in a bar room. Early in the evening, Bowman and Thomas Jeffers had a dispute, and Bowman, who is about six feet and weighs about 200 pounds, hit Jeffers, who is about five feet and an old man and weighs about 105 pounds, twice in the face. Young Jeffers, hearing of the occurrence, went to see Bowman and aRked for an explanation. Those w ho witnessed the tragedy refuse to talk and if any words passea, it whs lmpos sible to get particulars. Excitement is very high. Bowman was first taken to the city prism but is now in the county jail. $1,250,000 a Year for Fruit and Early vegetables. Along the route of the Louisville A Nashville Railroad, between Paris and .Memphis, lenn., a distance of 13 milas, a rapidly enlareinc traffic is be ing developed by the increase of the fruit-growing industry. During the month ot May over 100,000 cases of perishable goods w ere handled. Among these were 92,000 crates of berries. The balance of the shipments were made up of peas, beans and other ear ly vegetables. The potato and tomato crops also promise large tonnage. It is estimated that in this territory over $1,250,000 are annually distributed among the truck farmers. The straw berry crop in this section amounts to over $250,000. The Louisville & Nash ville runs fruit trains through this dis trict, making the trip from Memphis to Chicago in forty hours. Yes. Why Not? The immigration agent of the Geor gia Southern A- Florida Railroad has in five years located 9,000 people along 150 miles of that road in Georgia, an average of sixty to the mile. Most of them have been planted in colonies. Why can't our railroads do the same thing? Surely Sonth Carolina should be more attractive than wiregra&e Georgia! Columbia (S. C.) State. WASHINGTON NEWS.

The Pelzer Company to Build Again and ln crease its Investment by Haifa Million Dollars. TheFelzer (S. C.) Mfg. Co., has decided to again increese its capital stock and add to the capacity of its mills on the Saluda River, 16 mills below Greenville. Work will be begun without delay. The new mill will be near Pelzer and will contain about 40,000 spindles. 'It will cost in the neighborhood of $500, 000, but the new stock to be issued will be only $400,000, and will make the capital of the company a round million. The addition will make the Felzei one of the largest cotton manufacturing companies in the Sonth and one of the largest in the country. The company began work in 1883 with 10,000 spin dles. It has grown steadily and is now operating 52,000. The addition will give it 92,000 spindles, which will be over 30,000 more than the largest mill in the South now has. The Pelzer Company now employs 1,400 people and use 25,000 bales of cotton. With the addition it will employ an additional force of 1,100 hands and w ill use 20,000 more bale of cotton, giving it a total roll of 2, 500 hands and total capacity of 45,000 bales of cotton a year. The increase will give Pelzer ft population close to 10,000 and will make it probably i larger town than Spartanburg or An derson and close to Greenville. The new mill will be, w ith the others, under the direct management of Pros ident E. A. Smyth, under whose con trol the company's plant has made it wonderful growth, and under whos work one of the largest and most flourishing towns in the State has iv eleven years grown from an old field and a shoal.

The condition of the crop is report ed as nearly up to the average and more advanced as a whole than that of last year. The cultivation has been timely and thorough, and it is report ed that there has rarely been a season when grass and weeds have given so little trouble, due largely to the fact that the rainfall has nowhere been ex cessive. Taking the entire condition of the plant, it is on the whole very promising much better than either last year or the year before at this tirae and this is particularly true of Texas and Mississippi, two of the larg est producing States.
