The Colored Mems Banner.

The Alamo Assembly (colored) OF
Knights of Labor have had a very pretty
banner made by "Cad'' that will appear
in the procession to-day. 1t is OF blue
sateen, fringed, and inscribed, alamo
l.. A: 4lOS. Founded August s, 1885.
An injury to one is an injury to all ;"
In the center of the banner is represen-
tatiOn Of the Alamo. The staff is OF
ebonised wood surmounted by the spear
and globe, and the cross pieces are OF
ebonised wood with gold ornaments.
The banner is backed by chrome yellow
sateen, and has an effective appearance.
1t was made in twenty-four hours which
is quick time for the character and guam
tity OF the work.

surest Tranouilizer of the Nerves.

The surest traquilizer of the nerves is a
medicine which remedies their representative
ness by invigorating them. Over-tensiOn of
the nerves always weakens them. What they
need, then, is a tonic. not sedative. The lat
ter is only useful when there is intense men,
tai excitement and an immediate necessity
exists for producing quietude of the brain,
HOstettcr's Stomach Bittcrs restores tranquil
ity of the nerves by endOwing them with the
VigOr requisite to bear, without beng Jared
or disturbed unhealthfully, the ordinary inn
pressions produced through the media of
sight, hearing and reflection. Nay, it does
more than this-it enables them to sustain n
degree of tension from mental application
which they would be totally unable TO endure
without its assistance. Such, at least, is the
irresistible conclusion to be drawn from the
testimony of business and professional men,
tested the fOftifying and reparative influence
of this celebrated tonic and nCrvine. 1-2l-lw

In Bad Condition.

The Castroville road is reported as
being in deplorably bad condition, es-
pecially from Lucas springs, eight miles
from here to the 10Th mile post. At some
places there are bog holes, one II miles
out, where one farmer gets begged and
has to wait until another wagon comes
along to help him out. The road is go
ing to be changed so as to cross the
ravine at point below the Springs, and
If this is done, travellers say 1t will then
be utterly impossible, unless they bridge
it. Complaints have been made to Com
missioner Hcefiling, 1t is said, but he re-
fuses to remedy the evils complained OF.

A cruel story is told on a certain doc
tor who has but few patients in this
city. Last week he attended healthy
young Switzer at Santa Rosa hospital
sand was treating him for fever. The
man and his wife had saved up little
sum of money, and the young man was
very sick and grew no better. He
wanted to be removed TO his house how
ever, and persuaded his wife to remove
him. Before this, however, the doctor
called and told his wife his bill was $22,
but that he would take SIS, II the cash
was paid down. Said he must have the
money Immediately or he could not save
her husbands life. She paid him and
after that saw no more Of him, and her
husband died more for the want OF medi-
cal attention than anything else, as the
poor woman was q stranger, did not
know any other physician and could not
spare the time away from her delirlous
husband to search for one.

The Asheville citizen. [volume] (Asheville, N.C.) 1885-1889, 1886-01-26
HoN. G. W. LOGAN

Hon. G. W, LOGAN
Of Rutherford county is ii the city for
a few days We had the pleasure of
brief chat with him last night, and of
course Railroad matters in his county,
and probable extension to Asheville re-
ceived special attention. Judge. Logan is
enthusiastic over railroad prospects for
his county; having no doubt of the
completion, during this year, of two
roads into Rutherford. AS to what di-
rect extension may take, after reaching
Rutheriordton, all is mere conjecture at
present but he says all opinions are
united upon the idea that work will not
stop at that town, but one or both lines
will etrike out for new territory. Wheth-
er one or both may come to AsLeville
will depend upon the substantially
of inducements offered. The Judge, and
people of his county generally, are very
anxious for the Asheville connection,
and hope that the people of Buncombe,
and the city of Asheville will be ready
to respond with their usual liberality to
such an enterprise. vs. are pleased to
see our friend, and to see hiniso enthu-
siastic over the matter.
