often buried in mist, almost continually
blown and rained upon, and not once,
cheered by any glimpse of sunshine.
BY day we lay and slept IN the drench-
ing heather; by nigkt, necessarily clam
bered upon breakneck hills and among
rude crags. We often wandered; we.
were often so involved in fog that we
must lie quiet till it lightened. A fire

cold meat that we had carried from the

From the eloquent lips of Mr.. Frank
Lockwood, O. c., NJ. P, there dropped
the other day at a meeting connected
with the Scarborough branch of the
National Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children a jewel of po-
etc and religious thought which we
commend TO the members of the Roy
al academy who desire to immortalize
their canvas. Il have often noticed, )"
he said, ''in the pictures which illus
trate the bringing of the children to
Christ that the children are depicted
as happy looking, round faced little
infants. 1 should like to see another
picture dealing with the same subject
in which the children should be poy
trayed as starved and miserable, with
tear stained faces and hungry eyes.

Splitting Salt and breaking Mirrors.


At the present day, when salt is
spilled at the table. some persons at
once throw some of the spilled arti-
Gle into the fire in order to avoid a
quarrel. Salt in many nations was
a token of friendship, and when an
Arabian desired to assure you of his
loyalty he handed you some salt and
said, There is salt between us. "
Should he spill any of it he would
hasten to burn a portion as a sacrl-
flee to heaven and a prayer to avert
the impending quarrel.

indicates the death of the person who

A FIRST LESSON FOR DETECTIVES.
Z Is Not How to Detect, but the Best Why
to Avoid Being Detected.

I Is Not How to Detect. but the Best Why
to Avoid Being Detected.
had occasion a short time ago to
,lo some work under the direction of
Superintendent Byrnes and received
from him some instructions in the
business of becoming detective.
ITO accomplish the ends which we
seek in the case in which you are en-
gagged, said the world famed rogue
catcher, lit is very important that
no one should suspect what you are
after, and it is of paramount impor-
lance that no one shall suspect that
YOU are in communication with me.
Now let me give you one of the first
lessons that detective learns. 1t is
not how to detect, but how to avoid
being detected himself. 1t very often
happens that people who are play
ing a game for big pot of money,
and who fear the police will spoil
their game, employ detectives to
shadow every one with whom they
are dealing for fear that they may
be dealing with some one who will
expose their schemes. The first thing
a detective learns to do. therefore, Is
to find out whether he is being shad
owed by any one else. To do this is
simple and easy, and yet most people
not familiar with how to do it would
say, Why. how can l find out if l
am being watchedF
''All that is necessary is caution
and a little nerve. Keep your eyes
open for any one whom you suspect
of following you and never go any
where where your hand would be
exposed unless you are sure you are
not followed. If you have an idea
you are followed, pay no attention to
the person you suspect of following
you Do not try to escape him, for
that will at once arouse his suspl-
cions. Let him follow you, and to
make sure that he is really shadow
ing YOU after walking a block or two
turn quickly and retrace your steps.
AS YOU pass the man you suspect
look him squarely in the eye. Re
peat this operation several times, and
YOU will be bound to make sure
whether or not he is really following
you.
''Of course when you know you
are being Swallowed you will do
nothing to reveal what you are real
" doing until your follower has

NOW LET US HAVE A FAIR
AND ONE THAT WILL AT
TRACT EVERYBODY.

"A Meet1mS 10 DE Held Here 6atnr-
day, August I9, to Form the w.
N. G. Fair AssOciatiOM-X.et the
People Attend.
TIE CITIZEN has often urged upon the
people of this section tue necessity for
holding a fair, at which should
be shown the resources of the mountain
country of North Carolina. Such fair
would attract universal attention and
would be an important factor in the de-
vclopment of the section which it brings
before the world.
At last there is an inclination to move
in this direction, and TIE CITIZEN and
all people who have an interest in the
growth of this section will be glad to see
the movement grow until the Western
North Carolina fair becomes glorious
realty.
1t is, therefore, with pleasure that
THE CITIZEN publishes the following call
for meeting in Asheville on Saturday,
August 10. to take the initiatory steps
in the formation of the Western North
Carolina Fair association. This call is
signed by Capt. M. J. Fagg, DR.. S. Wcs-
tray Battle, Geo. S. Powell and others,
and should result in the bringing out of
good crowd of men who are fully alive
to the question and who are determined
to see the movement carried through
successfully. The call follows:
ITO the People of Western North Caro-
lima
"Our agricultural, mineral and other
resources warrant an annual exhibit. A
number of gentlemen feeling the import
ance of this met on Thursday afternoon
last and resolved to take steps looking
towards the Inauguration of fair asso-
citation.
"a CALL therefore, is made to the peo-
pie comprised in the counties west of the
Blue Ridge to meet in Asheville Saturday,
August 10, to formulate plan and per-
feet an organization. An option of d
long and easy lease of grounds, already
fenced, with a good race track and grand
stand, has been secured and only small
sum will be required to erect the other
necessary buildings.
Everyone, therefore. interested in
having fair is callcd-upon to meet in
Asheville on the 10th and a Western
North Carolina Fair association will re-
suit"
Western North Carolina papers will
please copy this call.

THE LAST COURT.
Some Figures as to what IL AC-
com pIiehed.

oOlnS FI&uT AS 10 "nRt IL AC-
COmplished.
The term of the Criminal court which
wound up its business last Friday was
one of the hardest working tribunals
held in Buncombe. The amount of work
done was something unusual, and the
court officials were kept busy all the
time. A few figures furnished THE CITI-
ZEN by Deputy Clerk S. B. Erwin will
show very plainly what was done during
the term. When he court met on Monday
morning, July "a. there were 20 cases on
the trial docket. The grand jury in four
days passed upon 65 bills, a total of La
cases, and reported 10 mot true bills"
During the 10 days of active court work
there were 20 convictions, 1S submis-
sions, eight acquittals and IL nolle
prosequis. SiXty-four cases were contin-
ued to next term. Four cases were
transferred to the Superior court. OF
those convicted IL were sent to work on
the county roads, their terms of sentence
ranging from three months to five years.
The amount of fines imposed was $500,
all of which will be collected, the defend
ants having given good security for the
payment of the fines. For this reason
this court will come nearer paying ex-
penses than its predecessors have done.
These figures make good showing
and Solicitor Eug. d. Carter is justly
proud of the record of the term.

pany's road, rolling stock and so forth,
will be sold on the 9th of September by
A. I. Summcy, master commissioner
appointed by the United States court.
In the meantime the operating expenses
of the lines are being cut down wherever
possible. Only few days ago
notice was posted in the car shed,
to the effect that the motor
men and conductors would have
their wages reduced from $40 to $35 a
month. This. however, did not become
operative, because Superintendent Arthur
took down the notice, saying that he
preferred to make reduction in some
other way. Some of the men whose
wages it was proposed to cut down are
the same ones who worked on the lines
before the road passed out of Col. Mar
tins hands, at which time the company
owed them back salary in some instances
amounting to 5000 or $500. This back
pay has never been given them, although
it would have been welcome many time
and oft. But the men are discouraged
and do not express hope of receiving a
cent. They think that when the prop
crty has been sold next month it will
pass into other hands and the matter of
back pay will never be considered. Col.
Martin, however, has assured them that
their wage money will eventually be
paid. Since Receiver Maddux took
charge the men have been paid regularly.
A reduction in crews has lately been
made on the railway. Heretofore there
were two relief crews and these ran the
cars while the regulars took an hour for
meals. Now there is only one relief crew
and the regulars have but half hour for
meals. The extra car which has for
SC metime been used to transport the
mail to and from the postoffice has been
discontinued and the mail is brought up
on the regular depot line cars.

Marion Butler, president of the State
Alliance, addressed large gathering of
people from all the surrounding country
at Forest City, on the issues of the day,
as viewed from an Alliance point of view.
A table 800 feet long had been erected
for the picnic dinner, but rain came be-
fore Mr.. Butler had finished speaking,
cutting short the speech and preventing
the spreading of the dinner. People
crowded into the academy building i'll
such numbers as nearly to break the
sleepers of the floor.
1t is said the meeting was gotten up in
the interests of the Peoples party. A
band of music was one of the attractions.
The rains are abundant and the crops
very fine in this section of country.
There is plenty of old corn at 55 cents

turned out well. The people have every
thing but the commercial dollar and they
are anxiously looking to President Cleve-

SENTENCED.
They Forged Very Sensational
Documents.

PARIS, Aug. 1.-The jury in the case of
Ducret and Norton has returned Il vcr-
dict of guilty against both defendants.
Norton, who is a mulatto, was indicted
for forging the documents that created
such a sensation in the chamber of dcpu-
ties when read by II. Milleoyc, Be ulangist
member. These documents, which, it was
claimed, had been stolen from the Brit
ish embassy in Paris during the absence
OF Lord Duffcrin, British ambassador,
purported to show that a certain French
man high in official life, had sold state
secrets to the British government, these
alleged acts, if true, constituting treason.

gist organ Cocoradc, was charged with
completely in the forgcries. The jury was
only short time in arriving at a verdict,
and the court at once sentenced Norton
to three years Imprisonment. Ducret
