PERSONAL. NIENTION.

Mr.. p. E. Allen is at the Grand Cen

in New York City.
Among the guests at the Grand Cen
tral is Mr.. H. J, Deadrick, of X. Walters

Mr.. F. NJ. D. Almond has registered at

chasing lumber for company in Knox
vile.

nent Baltimore firm, should have regis
tered at the Swannanoa on the same
night that our own citizen Mr.. w. Vance
Brown returned after one of his frequent
trips from the city. Parties that know

pearance.
The Rev. Mr.. Agnew, d. D., pastor Of
the Bethlehem Presbyterian church, Phil

Expresn Omce Robbed.

New ORLEANS, La, December H.
The Times Democrat San Angeles, Tex,
special says; Five men, wearing brake
men cotton jackets, entered the express
Office at Btownwood Just after the west
bound passenger train had pulled out for
San Angeles Sunday night, and asked il
an express package for John Johnson had
come in. The clerk informed them it had
not. They told him to look over his
way bill, whereupon he proceeded to put
his money in the safe when they entered
the office at his back and knocked him in
the head, it is supposed with sand bag,
where he lay insensible on the floor until
morning. The robbers secured $1,000 in
currency and left no clue by which they
could be traced.

Another RUNAWAY.

While Mrs. Jesse K, Starnes was driving
on Charlotte street, near Capt. T. w.
Patton's residence, her horse became
frightened at the electric car and ran
away. Mrs. Starnes was thrown from
the carriage, and when picked up was
found to be in dead faint. She was car
ried into Mrs. Spains house and doctor
was telephoned for. 1t was an hour and
a half after the doctor arrived before she
recovered from the faint. No injury was
sustained beyond severe shock to her
nervous system. The horse was finally
caught and stopped by Mr.. ]. w. c.
Deake. No blame can be attached to the
street railway company, as the car was
not in motion at the time the runaway
took place, and it was in nowise due to
any carelessuess on the part of the men
in charge of the car.

A Grand Army of the Republic
Post Much Excited.

From the Philadelphia Record we take
the following action OF the G. A. Mccall
Post, G. A. R., of West Chester, Pa.
These creatures have Just such concep-
tion of magnanimity as incites them to
call this the best and most magnanimous
government the world ever saw. They
cannot appreciate the magnanimity of
their comrades they denounce and repu-
diate for noble forgetfuness of the past,
and forgiveness of their former enemy,
and they rank themselves as undving
enemies Of American unity and the har-
mony of great people.
We always take pleasure in giving such
creatures the full publicity to their in
fanny.
WEST CHESTER, Pa, December To-
George A. Mccall Post, No. 81, G. A. R.,
of West Chester, has adopted the follow
ing resolutions without a dissenting
voice; At an unusually large muster of
the Post, held on December 13, 1889, the
following resolutions were unanimously
adopted by rising vote.
Resolved, That we view with alarm
the extraordinary manifestation of
spirit of treason which the events of the
present week show is rife in the section
of our country embraced in the States
lately in hostility to the Government, as
demonstrated in the funeral obServanCes
Of the late chief rebel and arch traitor,
Jefferson Davis, who was and remained
from his own choice an unpardoned
traitor to the best and most magnani-
nous Government Onearth. There being
nothing in his person or career to call
for these fulsomc eulogies, il is but too
painfully evident that they are due alone
TO his treason.
Resolved, That we utterly repudiate
the little squad of our &. A. K. members
who disgraced themselves and our Order
by attending the funeral On body, mas
much as they could not fail to see that it
would be made an occasion for a display
of treasonable sentiments. The fact that
they are located in position which now
appears to be the enemy's country called
for them to sustain themselves as an
outpost Of our Grand Army rather than
to be led captive in treason's cause.
Resolved, That our 6. A. r. brethren
who refused to participate in these obse
quies thereby proved their worth as
loyal American citizens and soldiers.
The resolutions are to be published in
the form Of an order.
