WHERE IS THE LEAK?

Water MysterIously Disappearing at the
Machine Works.
mysterious leak in the water main
through the Roanoke Machine Works
yard is troubling the company very
much. Last Sunday it was estimated
that several thousand gallons of water
were wasted and disappeared under tho
earth in some mysterious manner
Since that time the pipe has been laid
bare from the lower yard to the car
shops, but the leak has not been found
yet, though it may be in some of the
cross sections about the lumber yard.
No indication Of the water rising on
the ground has been found and many
are of the opinion that it has struck an
underground channel and rises in
Tinker creek or Trout run.
The search will continue till the leak
is found, as the waste of water is very
great, and is weakening the pressure.

LORD WOLSELEY'S VISIT.
AN OFFICERS IDLE TALK OF
WAR.
Great Britain Will Give the United
States Her Ultimatum and Then
Look Out!-PreparatiO at the
Pacific Coast Navy Yard.

MONTREAL, March 1O.-An officer of
the British navy, now here, says
there ismore significance to be
attached to the approaching visit of
Lord Wolselev to Canada than is gen.
orally believed. Wolseley will at once
proceed to the Pacific coast with General
Herbert and inspect the deiences, British
Columbia and the naval yard esquimaut
He will remain at Victoria until the
United States is given an ultimatum
with regard to the Behring sea question
The officer said:
81 would not be surprised to find
Great Britain and the United States at
war before the year is out. The British
government has been remaining quiet in
view of the possibility of the liberal party
in Canada getting into power. Through
it Lord Salisbury believed more salts
factory settlement of the matters of the
dispute could have been reached than
through the administration of Sir John
A. Macdonald, whose policy has been
more i'll the direction of intensfying diff
ferences than eifecting reconciliation.
In conclusion, the officer said that the
activity about the British dock yards
clearly showed that England was pre-
pairing to be ready for any emergency.

Heart and Ear ThrObs.

From the Durham Globe.
The man who has questioned Colonel
Henry Blount Of the Wilson Mirror
for writing his "heart throbs" perhaps
should not have done so. The old man
of this print shop, he hates to admit, has
said more or less concerning Mr.. Blount 3
heart throbs, and he is now sorry. The
old mans head was full Of cold last
night, and he had the ear ache, 1t ached
and ached and achcd, and this morning
it was still at it. And his ear throbbed.
The ear throbs were awful things,
And we can now feel in full sym.
pathy with any person who has
heart throbs. Of course Mr.. Blount
would say that il he had ears as large as
ours, and they'd throb-why of course
that would make him tired; it woulc
make him weary and tedious-but The
heart throb business, he will maintain
does not make him weary.

BRIGHT DAYS AHEAD.
The Ground Hog Says he was only
Joking and Is Forgiven.

The lease which the ground hog held
OH Ashcville's weather expired yesterday.
For six long, weary weeks, the city has
been houndering around in mud, sleet,
rain and wind, much after the style of a
sightless canine in butcher shop.
! Work generally has been suspended for
'this number of weeks, and all because on
| the I'd of February, one small ground
| hog came to the mouth of his burrow
and seeing his shadow stole silently back
and went into retirement for six long
weeks.
But that must all end now-unless
signs fail.
The six weeks have passed into the
murky and sloppy past, and Asheville
can now take bracer and get down to
work in that indefatigabIe style 80
characteristic of her workmen, and ere
long the breaches will all be healed and
the good city will be herself again.
1t has come to THE CITIZEN, on pretty
good authority, that the ground hog
was the only living being that was ac-
quainted six weeks ago with the idea Of
to vote on the appropriation of $780,
900 for the city improvement An agree
ment was then entered into by which the
ground hog should work for the measure
In that case he was to be exempt from the
payment of tax, and was to have special
privilege to conduct auctions, fruit tree
sales, churi concerts, etc, on the square.
That the little swine kept his part of
the agreement will never be denied,
And nothing now remains to he done
but get to work and push things through
as though the little ground hog incident
had never occurred.
While there are some who are unwilling
to make friends with the hog, the great
majority of citizens express themselves
as ready to forgive him. considering the
faithful work he did
He should have made one requirement,
however-that the authorities should
have the bill published at least week
| before the election,

OKALoNA, Miss, March 1O.--Reports
Just received show that great damage
has been done throughout Mississippi
by the floods Saturday and Sunday.
Many bridges and turnpikes were
washed away, 1t is vet impossible to
estimate the damage.
At Lexington, Mass. the storm was
the most destructive ever known there
The town is almost entirely cut off from
all communication with the outside
world. The Illinois Central bridge, one
mile east OF that town, was entirely de
stroyed and great loss followed.
Farming operations are entirely sus-
pended and the plowed lands badly
washed, delaying planting two or three
weeks.
A terrific storm passed within three
miles of Brandon Miss, Sunday night.
The splendid residence of the late David
l.. Wilson, near Brandon, together with
every building on the place, was blown
away. Mrs. Wilson and her invalid son
were carried with the bed upon which
they were sleeping out into the front
yard and covered by timhcrs and debris.
They were severely bruised and had to
remain out in the pouring rain all night.

JUSTICES JURISDICTION.
The New Law Will Cut Down the
Solicitors and Clerks Pay.

ooAhNhsoh " ahhsNA NA~s - " =
Among the acts passed by the North
Carolina legislature was one to enlarge
the jurisdiction ofmagistratcs."
Under the old law an offender who
used a deadly weapon, whether any
serious harm resulted or not, could only
be bound over to answer for the oiiense
in the criminal court. The new law
changes this, and magistrates will have
final Jurisdiction in all leases such as
mentioned above.
This will greatly diminish the amount
of work formerly done by the criminal
court, and will, of course, cut down to a
considerable extent the emoluments of
the offices OF clerk and solicitor. These
officers are paid in fees, and the result of
such cut down in the work of the court
will be readily seen.
In Buncombe's criminal court, so
Solicitor Carter and Clerk Patterson
say, fully onc-half, or perhaps larger
per cent, of the cases are for assault
with deadly weapon with no resulting
damage, and this change will make a
considerable reduction in the pay ofthese
| officers.

OUR TIMBER LANDS.
Don't Sell Large Blocks of Them
for a Song.

DR.. c. II. Smith. of Franklin, n. c in Manu-.
facturers' Record.
1t must be conceded that this North
Carolina section excels all others in the
abundance and variety of the timbers OF
this class. There are the most obvious
reasons for this-frst, because there is
here larger per cent. of uncultivated
land than in other parts. and then again,
because we have here the richest noun.
tains, perhaps, in the world. There are
comparatively few rocky escarpments.
A black rich mould predominates as the
mountain soil, and the mountains gener-
ally are covered with heavy forests to
their very submits.
Whether the present rate of cousump-
tion is likely to exhaust these forests at
an early day or not the rapidly moving
world will not stop to enquire. The ava
rice and requirements of the age will
push their demands to the utmost limit,
and let the future take care OF itself. In
view of all the facts, is it wise tor the
present owners to be in such haste to
dispose OF their timber lands? English
men and Germans, Northern and North
western syndicates are purchasing nam.
moth tracts at mere nominal valua-
tion thereby LAYING the foundation for a
timber monopoly in the hands of non
residents. Thus the native inhabitants
are, for the sake of few dollars ready
money, placing themselves and their des-
cendants at great disadvantage, with
no other recourse than to abuse monopo-
lies. There can be no objection to selling
part of these lands provided the pur-
chasers will settle down as residents and
join us in the legitimate development and
handling of these timber rsources. As
german to this idea, let me here bring
out another fact. There is throughout
this wonderful area of minerals and
timber an unlimited amount of water.
