In the notice of Mr.. J. c. Echard, gen.
eral agent of the Virginia Valley Mutual,
we stated that the assessments would not
cost more than $12 year. 1t should
have read that there would not be more
than twelve assessments.

tlemen delivered addresses to-day at the

This evening DR.. Bays will deliver a
lecture in connection with the same oc-
casion.
Mr.. Jasper Smathers, who resides on
the west end of Patton Avenue, is well
prepared to accommodate either families
or individuals with board. The very
name of Smathers is suggestive of good
feeding, and the public should note this
fact.
Nothing of Importance could be OBJ
tanned at the Courthouse this morning.
The Register could not even give us a
marriage item-except that he refused

line.
The many friends of Capt. James M.

doing well.
The Asheville Light Infantry will
have an entertainment festival on the
night of the 18th, for the purpose OF
raising funds to defray the expenses OF
the company during the State Guard
encampment here in July. They should
have the warmest support of the citi-
Zens.
We invite especial attention to the
card in another column of Mr.. Thos. w.
Branch, local. apent of the Virginia Mu-
tual Insurance Company. Mr.. Branch
munity, and is well known to our citizens
as gentleman of fair and honest deal
ing.
Through the instrumentality of the
Hon. T. D. Johnston, the mail service
between Brevard and Cashiers VALLEY
will be increased after July 1st. to tri-
weekly service. We are indebted to the
watchful energies of our representative
for many corrections of wrongs, and
much addition to mail facilities.
We regret that it was utterly 1mpossi
BILE for any of the CITIZEN staff to be
present at the exercises of Mr.. Kings
school at Beaver Dam to-6ay. It would
have been an occasion of great interest
to US, but only two of the staff are pres.
ent for duty, and the demands on theil
time are imperative.
The arrivals are not noticeably large
at present, but judging from the number
of inquiries addressed to the proprietor.
of the Swannanoa, and we may presume
of other hotels, there may be expected 8
heavy influx of visitors from all quarters
and that very soon.
