Into the performance? Wasn't It un

be acted upon at the first opportunity.

Come to Asheville.
When
days
rest of
the
have
the
sultry summer
come, the hot
year, the eyes of
thouaantla In warmer climes turn to
Asheville the city where the skeeters
never trouble and the nights bring
sweetest rest. Asheville a doors are
open to all who want to come there la
neither lock nor latchatrlng, and the
visitor has only to enter and make
himself at home. He will rind the love
liest country on earth a wealth of
scenery and a climate that must charm
him. He will And Asheville's streets
In better shape than when he was here
last year, with Haywood and Chestnut
paved, and several of the drives Im
proved under the direction of the Good
Roads association. He will And elec
trie lamps to shed light upon his path
way unleaa he wanders out of sight of
tnem or tne water in Hominy runs
very low. He will find one of the best
treet car systems In the south to
transport him to any quarter of the
City except that portion of South
Main between Town branch and Mc
Dowell street. He will And hotels and
boarding houses galore, from which he
may take hla pick houses such as any
resort of the ftrat-class would be
proud. To be sure, for all of this a fee
Will be aaked, "to defray current ex
penses," but he will expect that, be
lieving that fair exchange Is no rob
bery. And when he arises In the morn
ing from slumber (hut has not been
disturbed by the terrifying song of the
mosquito or the nightmare Heat he
will feel a thrill of the new life that he
came to secure.
Asheville wants to give everybody
an experience of this kind, and she has
donned her daintiest summer costume
to Welcome them. '
Prof. Holton and his distinguished
Side, Abe Mlddleton, should soon have
from those census takers who were do
ing their bidding facts sufficient to
show them the size of the majority by
which the white men of North Caroli
na are going to ratify the suffrage
amendment.
Life Insurance.
Some Idea of the magnitude of the
amount distributed through the medl
om of life Insurance may be had from
a perusal of the figures printed In the
insurance Press of New York, which
tdyes tables showing what was paid
at In 4000 cities and towns of the Uni
ted States In 1899. It Is stated that the
middle states are the heaviest patrons
of life Insurance, the central states
oming next. The distribution In the
middle states last year aggregated
70.4 millions of dollars; In the central
states S3." millions; In the New Eng
land states 25.1 millions; In the south
l$.'t millions; In the west 14 millions,
and In the Pacific states 7.S millions.
A majority of the death claims are
small, less than 10 per cent, of the
whole number being amounts of $10,000
or more.
The table devoted to North Carolina
shows the total payments for the year
to have j been $1,217,870. Charlotte
leads, with $150,490. Asheville's totf
was $35,000, Raleigh $85,000. Wilming
ton $67,233, Rockingham, $70,450,
Greensboro $45,650. Durham $35,125.
The total of claims paid In the United
States and territorial possessions and
m Canada was $185,821.1(9.
The Insurance Press' compilation Is
a valuable piece of work.
A reader suggests that the evange
list who announced his subject as "A
Hot Time" and preached from a brim
stone text would have had greater
success If he had constructed Ills' ser
mon on the Hebrew children and the
fiery furnace.
Beautiful School Rooms,
It Is pleasant to record that the ef
forts for beautifying the public school
rooms In Asheville are attracting at
tention abroad. The North Carolina
Journal of Education says:
"It would be difficult to find more
beautiful school rooms thun those of
the public schools of Asheville. Large,
high-pitched, well lighted, tinted walls,
pictures and statuary tastefully dis
posed In rooms and halls, these school
buildings are suitable homes for the
children during school hours. Pictures
and statuary to the value of more than
$500 have been added since last fall.
Nor has less attention been given to
health and comfort. Heating, ventila
tion, cloak rooms and other necessi
ties and conveniences have received
attention. The result Is the people are
beginning to be proud of their school
houses and are willing to do all that Is
needful."
ONE OF THE BEST
IN THE PHILIPPINES
29TH INFANTRY BAND UNDER
PROF. COB'S LEADERSHIP.
The Cttlsen's Raleigh correspondent
sends the following, which Is taken
from the Manila Freedom of May 1 and
refers to a former resident of Ashe
ville: "Th members of the Twenty-ninth
Infantry band received a regular ova
tion last evening on the Luneta. The
medley, composed of old southern airs,
was heartily applauded, as were the
other popular airs. In each Instance
an encore was demanded, and Chief
Musician Charles Coe cheerfully re
sponded. The reception, given to Mr.
Coe's own composition, with national
airs 'From Reveille to Taps', was so
well described that even at mess call
grumblings of 'natural born kickers'
were heard, which wound up by a lot
of tins, presumably a soldier mess kit,
being thrown at the cook. Soldiers
swarmed around the bandstand and
yelled themselves hoarse at this part
of the program. Needless to say, tt
had to be repeated. When one consid
ers how many of the men had no
knowledge of music at the outset, it
reflects very great credit on the pa
tience and skill of Director Charles
Coe, who, through his persistence, has
now, made his band one of the leading
ones In the Philippines.

Why Our Photographs
Are the Best...
First, because we have all the mod
ern apparatus necessary to turn out
good work. The skylight is important
and ours Is the best that can be made;
has that soft, easy, regular northern
light, making It easier for us to al
ways make good portraits.
Our operator, Mr. Ray, understands
his business and has both skill and
taste In posing and lighting. He Is
up to date and uses all the latest Ideas
for fine work.
Everything about our photographs
harmonizes. The mounts are correct
and suit the picture.
You can recognise our pictures at
sight. There's a certain something
about them that distinguishes them
from ordinary work.

We desire to call your attention to

Messrs. E. H. Chase' & Co., Louisville,
Gentlemen: Inclosed you will find
the results of my analysis of the sam
ple of Chase's Barley Malt Whisky
which you recently sent to me.
These results show it to be a whisky
of good alcoholic strength, free from
fusel-oil and containing no trace of the
metals, copper, lead and tine.
In my opinion Chase's Barley Malt
Whisky Is, on account of Its absolute
purity, an excellent article for medclnal
use. Yours truly.

BARLEY MALT WHISKY, not only to

ky, but also to the members of the
medical profession In their practice.
The consumptive will find it most
beneficial, as it strengthens, the Lungs,
checks the wasting of tissues, and re
lieves the severity of coughing. The
dyspeptic will find It an aid to diges
tion, as it relieves the stomach when
oppressed with gas. It builds up the
feelle and stimulates the system
against malarial attacks.
