Judging from present indications
Asheville is to be haven OF rest
and recreation for very large num-
Der of visitors this summer. The
hotels and boarding houses are fast
filing up and there is every pros
pect of a very busy season. One
feature of the summer travel is that
many visitors come in from the
North and Northwest In q talk
with Chief Clerk T. W. Postell, OF
the Swannanoa, the Citizen was told
that a number of Northern people,
who formerly summered in the
mountains of New England, have
already come here and will spend
The heated term. This is good IN
d;cation. and once this travel is
turned toward Asheville it will re-
suit in giving the resort larger
crowd than ever. There is room
and welcome for all of them. Ashe'
Vile is out of the mud, has weather

ATTACKED BY A BULL

Mr.. Willie Parrott, of Hesters, Comes
Near Losing His Life.
Oxford Ledger.
On Friday morning last Mr.. Will
lie Parrott, of Hesters, was savagely
attacked by the bull of Mr.. S. A.
Fleming. It seems that the lands
of Mr.. Parrott and Mr.. Fleming
join, and while Mr.. Parrot was just
over the fence milking one of his
cows, his bull leaped over the fence,
rushed up to Mr. Parrot while in q
STOPPING position and tossed him in
the air, and when he came down he
raised him again. When he struck
the ground his bullship made for
him the third time and landed him
clean over the fence, which was no
doubt the cause of saving his life.
When assistance arrived they found
him badly injured, but it is hoped
he will pull through. He is suffer
ing from injuries to the spine and
several body bruises, and the small
bone at the end of his backbone was
broken.

Vast Hunting Retreat.

AsheVllle CltlZen.
Mr.. Vanderbilt and a party of
friends returned a few days ago
from trip to his new purchase.
They had most enjoyable camp
ing trip. The Pink Beds proper
form an immense basin, through
which flow Mills river and it's trib-
utaries, while all around it tower
the mountains thousands of feet
above. Looking down from these
lofty heights the country seems a
veritable bed of pink. Through the
basin flows Mills river, at one point
on which stream everything is ia
vorable to the building of dam
that would make lake covering g
hundreds of acres. Whether this
idea will be carried out remains for
Mr.. Vanderbilt to say.
Whatever may be Mr.. Wander
bilt's decision as to the lake it re.
mains that ere long he will have
game preserve that will outdo the
most enthusiastic huntsman's fond
est dream. The preserves will be
within easy reach of his palace, and
to this delightful property he car
take the friends whom he may
gather about him in his magnificent
home during the season.
It is believed that the Pink Beds
plateau years ago formed the bed
of lake such as it is suggested MIR
Vanderbilt may make. An exper
in the employ of Mr.. Vanderbilt has
examined the plateau, and gives i
as his opinion that this land wa
once part Of lake.

You Kissed Me.

You kissed me! my heac
Dropped low on your breast.
With feeling Of shslter
And Infinite rest,
While the holy emotions
My tongue dare not speak,
FLASHED up in flame
From my heart to my cheek.
I our arms held me fast,
Oh. your arms were so bold.
Heart beat against heart
In your passionate fold.
our glances seemed drawing
My soul through my eyes.
As the sun draws the mist
From the seas to the skies.
Your lips elung to mine
Till prayed in bliss,
They might never unclasp
From the rapturous Kiss
You kissed me. my heart,
And my breath, and my will,
In delirious joy.
For a moment stood still.
Life had for me then
No temptations, no charms,
No vision of happiness
Outside of your arms,
And were l this instant
An angel possess sad
vi the peace and the 10y
That a 9 given the blest.
l would fling my white robes
Unrepentingly down,
l would tear from my forehead
Its beautiful crown,
To nestle once more
In that haven of rest,
Yonr lips upon mine,
Ny head on your breast.
You kissed mel my soul
In bliss so divine,
Reeled and swooned like q drunken
Foolish with vine
And | thought 'twere delicious
To die there, if death
Would but come while my lips
Were yet moist with your breath
If my hear t might grow cold
Whileyour arms clasped me round
In their passionate fold.
And these are tie questions
| ask day and night:
Must my lips taste DO more
Such exquisite delight?
Would you care if your breast
We're my shelter as then,
And if you were here,
Would you kiss me again?

unable to move the train either way,
