WINSTON SALEM'S
TUEITY.

Hotel ZinZendorf now has it's
doors open for the entertain
ment of the travelling public,
summer excursion tickets TO
Winston-Salem will put be on
sale along the Richm, md & Dan
vile railroad, and the passenger
service on the Richmond & Dan
vile and the Norfolk & Westel
to this city will soon be greatly
improved.
The natural result of these
impro, ements will be a great in
crease in the number of visitors
to the city. There is no reason
why people should not be Undue
ed to 9ock here in such numbers
during the next few months, as
to make the building of another
hotel the equal of the Zinzendorf
a necessity.
There is no limit to what Wins
ton-Salem can accomplish in the
way of development. There are
many lessons she might learn
from her neighbor at the other
end of the Winston-Salem divis-
ion of the Norfolk & Western.
She is neck and neck with Roa-
noke in the race of progress and
therei is not one single reason why
she should not spring well in the
lead at single bound.
With two os the great railroads

staple, in the center of one of the
best agricultural sections in
America, with iron in abundance

of small manufacturing plants
as a nucleus, more home capital

is no reason why Winston-Salen

THE DEVIL IN THE GARDEN
OF EDEN

Chief Justice Marshall, of Ken
lucky, was once engaged in a
hot political canvass in that
State during which he made a
speech one evening near Louis
vile, in a small town, to a large
mum Der OF country people. JUS
tice Marshall s opponent on this
occasion was a man by thename
of Pitcher, sharp. shrewc, I'M
principlei politician, with plenty
of CAB. They both had spoken
once and it was Marshall's turn
to close the argument. His spec h
was continued till after sunse t..
The evening was clear and beau
tiful, the moon was up aud gave
a bright silver light, the stars
beamed out like beacons from
heaven, the air was fraS grant with
the odor of new mowns clover,
while the tingle OF the distant
COW tellsspoke ofrepose and rest.
The situation was perfectly en-
chanting to Marshall, who, with
the eloquence of Il born orator,
took advantage to paint the
scene in richest colOrs. His au-
dience would ever and anon break
out in unrestrained applause at
the fire and beauty OF his Ian
guage until reaching that climax
in his brilliant and beautiful per-
grafton hesaid: ''Hereis an eden
on earth, the beautiful stars are
bending above us like the watch
full eyes ofa good and great God,
while around us is strewn with
lavish hand every gift that would
make the heart happy, but" said
he, pointing his index finger at
Pitcher, "Lere is the devil in the
garden of Eden.'
As he sat down, the widest
applause broke forth from every
lip while Pill her sneaked through
the crowd, feeling the fearful
force of this fit an proper denun-
citation.
Unfortunately there are num-
Der of Pitchers in this world, real
devils in the garden of Eden, who
come to poison, corrupt and de-
stroy the good and perpetuate
the bad. You oftimes find them to
be slick tongued, cultured men,
men with fair reasoning powers,
capable of exercising an influence
over our better men. But it
matters not in what capacity
they exercise their influence it
falls like a whitening blight and
it kills like the mildew of death.
No good survives beneath their
baleful influence, and no benefit
comes from their advice.
Let them come to a town that
is thriving and progressing, that
is making rapid strides on the
road to prosperity and ashadow
falls over the land. You have
not houses enough when they
come, you have too many after
they stay awhile: you need more
stores when they come, you need
less after a while; your real es-
tate is selling high when they
come, you can scarcely sell at all
after they remain awhile,
You might ask how is it and
why it is that such men are cap.

THE STONE BRIDGE COMMISSION.
A Meeting to Close with Hanock Bros

"A Meeting TO ClOse Win hduOck DIOs.
A meeting OF the Stone Bridge Com
mission was held at the Office Of the
City Engineer, yesterday afternoon, to
make a final settlement with Hallock
Bros. who finished the bridge after the
smash of the firm Of Paige, Carey & Co.
Bills were presented aggregating ST.
544.6S, of which 81, COZ. 90 was for paw
ing the bridge and approaches with
fire brick. The Engineer figured
that s511.95 of this paving bill
should be paid by the Street Railway
Company, under the ordinance compell-
ing them to pave between their rails
and one foot on each side thereof, and
il was proposed to cut off that sum
from Mr.. Hallock's bill and let him COL
lect it from the Company. To this Mr..
Hallock demurred, saying he was work
ing under a city contract which called
for the paving Of the bridge, without
any lands" or "buts," and he looked to
the city for his money. 1t was finally
agreed the City Engineer should pre-
sent the bill to the Company. The En-
gineer was authorized TO sell about So
600 brick now on Twentieth street,
bought for the bridge but not used, to
the best advantage. They are probably
worth SO per thousand. The iron cleo
trio light poles, being made by Sweeney
& Sons, have not yet been delivered at
the bridge.
The Board discussed for some time
the question of finally winding up its
affairs, but concluded there had better
first be conference with the City So
licitor.
