The Arkansas Traveller.

This individual turned up a short
time ago on board one Of the splendid
steamers which traverse the lower
Mississippi. The Henderson Democrat
gives the following amusing account of
his marriage:
Early this morning there was added
TO our company Of travellers, q pair who
looked like runaways; the gentleman,
q tall, raw-boned specimen OF the "half
alligator" class, and the lady q fair
match for him. Among the passenger
from Napoleon Is solemn looking
gentleman who has oil along been taxi
en- for preacher. About nine o'clock
last night I was conversing with the
reverend" individual, when young
man stepped up, and addressing him re-
marked, "we're going to have a we'd
ding. and would like to have you offici-
ate.n I'All right, sir" he replied,
laughingly, and we stepped into the la
dy's cabin, when sure enough, the
couple stood waiting. There had been
several "kissing games' and several
mock marriages during the evening,
and I supposed that this was merely q
continuation of the sport; and so
thought the preacher" who. 1 could
see, had good deal of humor in him,
and was inclined to promote general
good feeling and merriment. The
couple stood up before him (adeal more
solemn than was necessary in a mock
marriage, I thought } and the preacher
asked the necessary questions and then,
in the usual way, pronounced them
"husband and wife. n,-4.-e* ..a
There was a good deal of fun after
ward, and when it was over I left the
cabir--and 30 did the "preacher," who
remarked to me that he liked to see the
young folks enjoy themselves, and took
q good deal of pleasure in contributing
to their fun; but he did not understand
why they should select him to act as
preacher. Just then someone called me
aside, and the old gentleman stepped
into his state room, which was next to
mine. When returned the door stood
open, and the preacher" stood just in
side with his coat and vest off, and one
boot In his hand talking with the gen.
leman who had played the attendant"
and who. as Icame up, remarked: well
if that's the case, it Is q pretty good
joke, for they are in dead earnest, and
have retired to the same state ROOM"
The old gentleman raised both hands
as he exclaimed: Good Heaven! you
don't tell me so!' and rushing, just as
he was, boot in hand. to the state room
indicated, commenced an assault on the
door, as IL he would batter it down, ex-
claiming at each lick: "For Heavens
sake, don't! I amt a preacher!" The
whole cabin was aroused, every state
room door flying open, and the Ark
ansas traveller" poking out his head
cody remarked: /" Old hoss, you're too
late!'

A new SCENE ID being worked by
sewing machine sharks. They put in a
machine, fill out q lease which when
detached from the duplicate, becomes a
note. This racket has been worked
several times, often enough to teach
people lesson. Nhome industry was
more thoroughly patronized there
would be nothing to kick about, gener-
ally when buying goods, as those who
handle such articles as sewing ma
chimes, are responsible and men who
can be relied upon. Patronize them.

Heavy machinery is now run by ar
tesian-well power in many parts of
France, and the experience of the
French shows that the deeper the well
the greater the pressure and the higher
the temperature. The Grenelle well,
sunk to the depth of 1900 feet ami
flowing daily 100000 gallons, has a
pressure of sixty pounds to the square
inch, the water being also so hot that it
is used for heating the hospitals.

Four Generations at the White House.

A ceremony which had never taken
place within the White House walls
since it was built was witnessed the
other afternoon. A photographer took
an excellent negative of the four gener-
ations of the Harrison family. The
picture was taken in the red parlor.-
The father ofMrs. Harrison, Rev Scott,
sat on the extreme right of the group,
Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. Mckee next,
and last but not least, Benjamin Harri-
son Mckee. The baby threatened to
spoil the picture by persistently open
ing his mouth at the auspicious mo-
ment. An instantaneous picture was
made of the group, with satisfactory re-
suits. There is a difference of SO years
between the first and fourth genera
tions. DR.. Scott is in his 90th year and
baby Mckee has lived nearly two
years.

their grain, bear their burdens, run
their errands and carry their messages.
But when Nature asserts itself, pigmy

TOBACCO TALK,
Five Million Pounds will be Sold
Here ThIs Season.

This years crop of tobaccois the best
you ever saw" said a prominent ware
house man to the reporter yesterday,
land ! am confident that the AshevilIc
warehouses will handle over five million
pounds of the leaf this season. The out
look is very gratifying, and if outside
buyers-by this ! mean drummcrs from
other markets, can be prevented from
buying the crops of the farmers as they
stand in the barns, we may handle more
tobacco than | have estimated above.
The season will open about October Is,
and the new paper we have Just started
The Tobacco Journal, will be a valua-
Bile factor in increasing the tobacco busi-
ness of Ashcville. So far, but little of the
new crop has been sold, but that which
has been offered, in every instance. has
brought good prices at the sale. The
frost came too late to do any damage
this year, and the consequence is
the largest crop of tobacco ever
raised i'll Western North Carolina has
been cured and put in prime condition
for the market"

ASHEVII.I.E FIREMEN.
New Equipments to be Purchased
for Their Use.

AOA N~AA Voc
At the meeting of the City Council last
evening, the committee appointed to in
vestigate the needs of the city fire depart
ment submitted the following report:
"The committee appointed to investi-
gate the needs of the Ashevlle fire depart
ment and to recommend the purchase OF
supplies for the same, beg leave to report
that, they recommend the immediate
purchase Of one thousand feet of Maltese
Cross hose, two hand hose reels and two
nozzles for use by the Hose Company,
and a new hand truck with equipments
complete to reach to the top of the
highest building in the city, for the Hook
and Ladder Company"
This report was signed by Mavor
Blanton and aldermen Leonard, Fitzpat-
rick and Pulliam of the committee, and
upon being submitted to ballot was
carried by a vote of ayes 5; nays l.
alderman Miller dissenting.
Immediately after the passage of the
report alderman Pulliam moved that a
committee OF three be appointed to pur-
chase suitable frehell for the use of the
city, after making such inquiries and
examination as may be necessary to
secure, upon the best terms, bell that
will fully come up to the requirements
and specifications of the said committee.
On this committee the Mayor appointed
aldermen Pulliam, Wolfe and Miller.
These gentlemen will at once begin
upon the performance of their duties, and
it will not be long while yet before the
new bell will be purchased and erected.
The fire department Of a city is one
of its most valuable institutions, and in
order that it may render effective service
when called upon must be supplied with
proper equipments. To that end the
City Council is doing all in its power to
make the Ashevilc fire department as
nearly perfect as it is possible to do, and
iudicious investments made in this direc.
ton is an ultimate saving OF money to
the property owners of the city.

LOUISIANA'S STOLEN BONDS
THE PICAYUNE TELEGRAPRS
THE DAILY CITIZEN

To secure an Interview with Hr.
H. Aubenbier Concerning an AL
legged Loan of 100000 to Major
Burke Several Years Ago.
The New Orleans Picayune Yesterday
telegraphed THE CITIZEN to secure an in
terview with Mr.. Herman Zubenbier, of
New Orleans, who is now in this city,
concerning what he knew of loan made
several years ago by bank in the Cres-
cent City of which he was at the time
president, to Major Burke, former State
treasurer of Louisiana, amounting to
$4,000, upon certain Seminary and
Agricultural College bonds, which it has
recently been discovered have been stolen,
traudulently over-issued, and the interest
fund theretrom belonging to the State of
Louisiana, appropriated
The papers have been full of the dis
covery since Monday, and to the Plea
yune belongs the credit of unearthing this
gigantic fraud perpetrated upon the peo-
pie of the Pelican State. 1t is working
assiduously to make the discovery COM
plete and also to bring the guilty parties
to Justice, if such thing can now be
done. To this end every person who has
ever handled one of the unlucky bonds
has been applied to for information con-
cerning the same, in the hope of making,
when all of the statements are gathered
together, complete and unbroken his
tory of the bonds since their issuance by
the State of Louisiana.
Mr. Zubenbier's statement, therefore is
particularly desired by the Picayune in
its work, several gentlemen in New Or
leans having reported that Mr.. L., told
several years ago of a loan of about $7O,-
900 made to Major Burke upon bonds,
the coupons OF which were untouched;
that he grew uneasy and refused to re-
new the note when it became due.
THE CITIZEN searched the city for Mr..
Zubenbier, finally locating him at the
Winyah Sanitarium, in the northeastern
section of the city. Thither reporter
repaired, and calling upon the gentleman
read the Picayune's telegram, and re-
quested him to make a statement con-
cerning the matter. This statement Mr..
Zubenbier positively refused to make,
beyond saying that he had no recollec-
ton at present of the affair to which the
Picayune referred. Neither did he remem-
Der the incident Of telling certain gentle
men of New Orleans about growing un-
easy about the loan; or in fact, ANYTHING
about it. He said he would not talk
about the matter; he was very sick and
wished to be severely let alone concern
ing the subject. His memory was very
bad since he had become i'll, and it was
difficult for him to remember what had
happened one day to another. He re-
fused firmly to speak about the subject
further than that he had received a tele-
gram from New Orleans during the morn
ing touching the matter, and the repor
ter retired
Mr.. Zubenber is very sick man, suf-
tering severely from lung and bronchial
troubles, and it is with some difficulty
that he carried on the conversation. He
was veXed, it was evident, that he had
been sought for information on the sub
ject, and his lips were sealed concerning
the alleged loan.
