Too Late with His Objections.

A marriage ceremony at Roseburg
was interrupted in a sensational manner
a few evenings ago. Charles Minkler, a
freight conductor at WOODBURY., was the
groom, and LOttie Critzen, Of Roseburg,
the bride. During the ceremony the Of
dciating minister asked if any one had
any reason why the ceremony should not
proceed.
y young dry goods clerk of Roseburg,
named Mannis, stepped forward, saying
he had serious objections. He said he
wanted to see and speak with the girl
privately. He was put out of the house
and a pistol was found in his pocket. He
said he had always wanted to marry the
girl, but had never gathered courage to
tell her Of his feelings.-San Francisco

Let the Governor Help!
fAShcYillc CitizeD.1


The DURHAM GLOBE proposes to give
$3.50 to an exhibition at the Worlds fair
and label it "NOrth Carolina" if no
other man or individual donates a penny.
But THE GLOBE hopes, and so do we,
that there will be a great many mOr pen
MES in the form of substantial checks
contributed for this purpose, and that
North Carolina will have an exhibit at
the Worlds fair that will do the state
credit. But how is this to be brought
about? It occurs to The Citizen that the
give the thing a start. a powerful adj
dress from him might awaken the pcO-
pie to a full realization Of what North
Carolina must miss if it is not so gener-
ously represented at Chicago as to at
tract the attention Of a gOOdly percen-
tage of the visitors. Atthe present time
we are not going to anticipate the gov
ernor and point out the immense advan-
tages that such an exhibition as that at
Chicago will be sure to afford. We are
only going to remind the people of
Asheyille that it Will be a curious COM
mentary on their good sense if they fail
to see what the furtEeim0at nations Of
the earth already see, and are acting
upon, that the fair at Chicago will GER
tainly be the greatest the world has ever
knOWn-greatest not only as a show,
but as a means Of making money, Of ad.
ding to our population and to Our
wealth.
1t will not be anticipating the governor
if we say that there should be an Ashe-
vile exhibition whether there is one for
North Carolina or not, and it is also
proper and timely to remind all who are
interested-and who is not that much
more of delay means that we shall be
shut out altogether, Already the fair
managers have begun Of necessity to re-
fuse more space to some foreign exhibit
tors who see-What if we see we have yet
to act up0n-that the Worlds fair at
Chicago is an opportunity that comes but
few times in the life Of any Il genera
ton.

Blown Out of His Office.

Mr.. Nathaniel Paige, the lawyer, had
4 remarkable experience during the re-
cent storm. He was sitting at the desk
in his. Office on the second floor Of the
Corcoran building, and at the southwest
corner, when the storm broke. The door
opening into the main hall was open,
but the door connecting with a small
anteroom was closed. The upper part
Of glass. The strength Of the wind
broke III the corner windows, and, pick
ing Mr.. Paige mp bodily, carried him
through the door, and with the frame
hanging around him deposited him out
in the main hall, fifteen feet distant.
He was not cut by the broken glass nor
hurt in any way.-Washington Star.

4 WOman'S Terrible ExDerience,

A farmer named Norrand found a
woman lying underneath a tree near his
farm in st. Jerome parish. She was
alive, but almost a skeleton, unable to
speak and insane. She was Matilda
Graph, a domestic. Over a month g
she left a house to go to church, but had
never been heard Of again and was be-
lieved to be dead. She had laid down
under a tree where she and her dead hus-
band had often sat together. She fell
asleep and slept for two days, and when
she awoke she had lost her reason. She
wandered about the woods for thirty
five days, and never tasted any food.
She obtained water from a brook. Since
she has been found she has been rational
at times and has told the above remark
able story. She is in a very weak state.

Thanksgiving Day in New York CITY,

Thanksgiving Day in New York City.
1t used to be that THANKSGIVING dav in
New York was, like the day all over the
eastern part Of the country, a day which
conferred around a dinner. This dinner
was inevitable, and the families saw each
other then that never saw each other in a
group at Z other time. The prodigal
returned for 1t: the poor relation looked
forward to it and praised it Is it pro
crossed heavily through its different
courses; and the several members Of the
family tried 70 be more polite and genial
and loving toward one another at that
meal than at any other of the three times
3G5 other meals Of the year. There are
some who like family dinners, and there
are other wicked n who sympathize
with the young woman who assented to
having a family dinner by saying, Yes,
and let Us have anyfanily but our own
1t is an awful and solemn ceremony in
many homes, and it is made more so, as
a rule, by some Il Of the elder of the
poor relations, who endeavors to e"nliven
the general gloom by trying to be the
life Of the dinner" He does this by
growing reminiscent over the younger
members, and telling how pretty they
were as children, and how they used TO
make him tell and retell the old story Of
the roast pig he stole the night before
Gettysburg, with which introduction he
promptly tells the old story again.
1t may not be SO everywhere, but
around New York city this has all
changed. 1t is not that the families
around the great metropolis love each
other less, or that they have less cause or
less desire to be thankful, but a great and
powerful and fascinating rival has colne
te take the place Of the Thanksgiving
day dinner, and it is known not only Ill
New York, bat from Texas, or wherever
else a Vale man is carrying a transit, TO
Canada, OF wherever else the Princeton
man is building a bridge, as the Thanks
giving day game.
And now everybody goes out to see
Princeton and Yale decide the football
championship, and instead Of boring each
other around a dinner table, grow hoarse
and exhausted in shouting for their ia
vorite son Or the college of their son.

a Georgia Mule Mine.

Squire Spudler has just discovered an
extensive bay mule mine Ola his farm
near here. The squire was fishing down
by the creek nea where IN old Indian
mine was worked for mules, and he WAS
attracted by a sound resembling the
Day Of a mule coming from a little cave
IN the bank Of the stream. The squire
commenced q search and soon discovered
the ears of a mule p~rOtruding above the
soft earth near the water. Work was at
once commenced and several fine speci-
mems We're unearthed. The squire's SON
in-l2w started with one fine specimen to
a m;ne9#logist'S to have it assayed, but
il bucA.-d and jumped with him, and,
after sending him off on a voyage Of dis
covery toward the planet Saturn, went
on a grazing spree III the adjacent COW
lot. It is believed that the mine Will
prove very profitable, and fodder and
corn have advanced to fifty dollars per
front foot.-Calhoun (Ga:) Times.
