NOW THIS IS NEWS RIGHT !
THE WHEELS OF PROGRESS
WILL NOW GO ROUND.

The Board of Aldermen Meet
This Morning and Accept a
Proposition From New York
Bankers-NO Twenty Per Cent
For Pitch In This.
The boar1 ..of aldermen held called
meeting in the mayors office this morn
ing at 10 o'clock.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of hearing and considering a prop
osition made for the purchase OF Ashe-
ville's improvement bonds.
Before the meeting was called to order
Maj. D. c. Waddell, the alderman-elect,
entered the room and the oath of Office
was administered to him by Mayor
Blarton, after which ceremony the new
member was congratulated by his fellow
aldermen. There were present Aldermen
Mcdowell, Gudger, Brevard and Leo
nard.
c. +. Street, the representative Of
Coffin & Stanton, bankers, of New
YORK and London then stated his prop
osition, which was to take $160,0OO
worth OF the street improvement bonds
and 100000 worth of the sewer bonds
at par, the city to allow them per
cent. of the par value for placing them.
There was considerable discussion on
the proposition, and it was decided that
the improvement act under which the
bonds are sold will not allow the sale of
more than 100000 worth of the street
bonds at time.
Mr. Gudger then made motion, which
carried, to accept proposition for the
purchase OF 100000 worth OF street
bonds-$100, 900 worth at once and the
other 10000 worth as the paving pro-
crosses. His motion included the ap.
pontment of committee from the board
to draw up a contract which would fully
protect the city, and report to the board
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock. The
100000 worth of bonds will little
more than cover the amount of work
now contracted for. The committee IS
composed of Messrs. Waddell, Gudger
and Brevard.
Mr.. Street then made proposition to
take 100000 worth of the sewer bonds
a par, if the city would give his firm the
contract tor the sewer work, the work
to be done by the city, with home labor,
and the firm to receive ten per cent.
contractors commission.
Mr.. Gudger then made motion to ac-
cept the second proposition, subject to
the approval of the joint board OF alder
men and advisors, and that committee
from both boards be appointed to con-
suit with Mr.. Street and report to the
meeting tomorrow afternoon. The
motion prevailed, and the following
committee was appointed: Aldermen
Starnes, Waddell and Gudger; advisors,
Cummings, Scott and Conant.
The meeting then adjourned until to-
morrow afternoon at the hour ap-
pointed.

building SunerstitiOns.

In remote times a sacrifice of some
kind was always offered at the compile
ton of a building, either public or
private. Sacrifices were not only offered
at the completion of structures of all
kinds-the foundations themselves were
usually laid in blood. whether the
structure was a castle, bridge. cottage or
church. Originally-tracing the sub
ject back to heathenish times-the
sacrifice was offered to the god under
whose protection the building was
placed; in Christian times the bloody
rite was retained, but was given another
Specification. In those days it was gen
orally believed that no edifce would
stand unless the corner stone was laid in
mortar mixed with blood. Usually the
blood was obtained by sacrificing IA dog.
a pig, a wolf, a black cock or a goat,
and not unfrequently some m~alefactor's
blood was poured out to make the cere-
mony more impressive. st. Louis Re-

The French Detective.

Every good detective has to som ex-
Int his Wa UG I!Ur.Ii3. which Is
varied, of course, according to the cir
ramstances. We may say, however. ti1:at
III a rule the Partisan agent has a freer
sand and works i a somewhat bolder,
wore self reliant than his Eng
Hsh colleague. This follows from his
isolation: lie is less helped by ''informa-
ton received and too badly paid to buy
it, SO he Is forced to acquire it by his
W exertions.
a favOrite method is to assume the
disguise of a workingman or hawker,
aud here it may be said that the use of
an elaborate makeup exists now only in
books. Every Jealous hand has his own
little wardrobe. and the simpler the bet
ter. The most efectual DISCUSSES are
those which best assimilate the wearer
to common life. The Partisan has two
in particular-the blouse and the work
mans apron.
Swallowing is always done by two
men, one some little way behind the
other. Each carries a change of dress
to wit, a blouse wound sashwise around
the waist and Il caSquctTe carried inside
the shirt. The moment the first man
fancies himself perceived he gives PLACE
to the second, and dropping behind
slips the blouse over his jacket and OK
changes his felt hat for the casQuette.
Thus mctamorphosed he resumes his
place.-London Saturday Review

The Mud of Egypt,

Egypt, says Herodotus, is a gift of the
Nile. 4 truer or more pregnant word
was never spoken. OF course it is Just
equally true, in Il way, that Bengal is a
gift of the Ganges. and that Louisiana
and Arkansas are a gift of the Missis-
sippi, but with this difference, that in
the case Of the Nile the dependence is
far more Obvious, far freer from disturb
ing or distractiny details. For that rea-
son, and also because the Nile is SO much
more familiar to most English speaking
folk than the American rivers. | choose
Egypt as my type Of a regular midland.
But in order to understand it fully YOU
mustn't stop all your time i'll Cairo and
the Delta; you mustn't view it only from
the terrace Of Shepheard's hotel Or the
rocky platform of the Great Pyramid at
Gizeh; you must push up country early
to Luxor and the First Cataract. 1t is
up country that Egypt unrolls itself Wis
IDLY before your eyes in the very process
of making. 1t is there that the full i'm
p~ortance of good, rich, black mud first
forces itself upon you by undeniable evil

Wheat Does Not Grow Wild.

The existence of names for wheat il
the most ancient languages confirms the
evidence of itsgreat antiquity and of its
cultivation in the more temperate parts
of Europe, Asia and Africa. From the
evidence adduced by botanists of higi
standing, it seems highly improbable
that wheat has never been found grow
ing persistently in a wild state. although
it has often been asserted by poets, trav
elers and historians.
In the Odyssey, for example, we are
told that wheat formerly grew in Sicily
without the aid of man. Diodoru5 re
