BOUND VOLUMES OF 1.-THE MAGIC
CITY"

One Of These Superb Works Can Now be
Obtained at the Times Office.
The bound volumes Of THE Magic
City," the superb series OF Worlds Fair
views, issued from The TIMES Office,
have been received and can be seen at
the business office Of THE TIMES, where
they will be given in exchange for tho
full SGT of eighteen numbers and rs cents
or Sl.50 additional, according to the
style OF binding desired.
The bound volume makes a beautiful
work, appropriate for the parlor table
In any family and collection of series
OF views inestimable in value as q SOU
venir OF the great exposition, and as an
educator OF the people in presenting
concise Photographic views Of buildings,
exhibits and people OF all nations, which
views are explained in an entertaining
way by the famous descriptive writer,
j. W. Buel.
The volumes are the projections of
the bookbinder's art. There are two
styles to select from, one of a rich
colored brown cloth, with the title en-
belished in gold upon the front; the
other an elegant affair in full Ameri-
can Russian leather, with embossed
scrollwork on front and back covers,
with the title in gold on the front and
back of the volume and the edges in
gilt.
The series OF views is one worthy of
saving. 1t forms collection of pic
lures which will prove as interesting in
the years to cone as at the present
time. No one who went to the Worlds
FAIL at Chicago last season should feel
that he could be without work Of this
nature, and 1.-The Magic City" is the
very best production that has bee pre-.
scented by any newspaper or publishing
house for the same money. 1t gives to
those who did not attend the very best
conception of the exposition that can
BIO obtained.
The price for the bound volumes barely
covers the cost Of the work Of binding
only rs cents for tho cloth and $3.50 for
the leather bound volume. This is what
you have to pay in addition to the full
set OF the series to secure the completed
work and no time is lost waiting for it
to come from the binders.
Remember that each of the eigt teen
parts must be in good condition to be
received in exchange. Soiled numbers
and missing parts will be supplied at
the usual rase of ten cents and one
coupon for each part
Come in and make the exchange early,
before the large supply of bound vol
umes now on hand is exhausted.

NEW ORLEANS, May 23.-The West
End was visited by 8 disasastrous fire
this morning, and now a large portion
OF one Of the handsomest and most
widely known resorts in the South is

SARATOGA, May 23.-The opening in
cident of to days session of the Presby-
terrain general assembly was the convic-
ton OF the vote taken yesterday on the
majority report OF the special theological
seminary com nittee. Several absentees
of yesterdays session were present to
have their names recorded on the side
of the ajority. This made the record
show that the seminary control report
was adopted by vote of 443 to lis.
The floor WAS given to DR.. Duffield,
of New York, chairman Of the commit
tee on correspondence, who introduced
the Rev. DR.. Muckland, of Baltimore,
as representative of the Fresbyte
alliance, himself being q minister of
the Southern Presbyterian Church. In
this connection DR.. Duff1eld expressed
the hope that the dawning OF the day
may be nearer at hand when theologi-
cal equator shall no longer mar the
Presbyterian map of the United States.
DR.. auckland spoke at considerable
length and was occasionally interrupted
by applause. In replying the modera.
tor charged DR.. Muckland to take back
to his church the special message that
the northern church Is longing to be ono
again with the southern church; adding,
sit Is crime for us to be separate any

ANOTHER MOVE AGAINST THE COL.
ONEL

Woman's Auxiliary OF Confederate As.
ISOLATION Refuse to Decorate the Graves,
LEXINGTON, KY, May 23.-Political,
Confederate and social circles are more
excited to-day than ever because a
young woman's auxiliary of the Confed-
crate Association had stormy meeting
aud had refused to decorate the Confed.
crate graves because Breckenridge was
a member OF the Veterans Associate
The president Of the auxiliary says it
will take no part in the Breckenridge
case as body and that there will be no
refusal to decorate graves.
Mrs A M. Harrison, secretary, and
her sister-inlaw, Miss Mary Harrison,
vice president Of the Auxiliary, re-
signed their Offices to-day. They are
severe in condemnation OF Breckin-
ridge, and while they give no open
reason for resigning, they ssy plainly
it ought not to be difficult to infer why
they quit the organization.
Mrs. Harrison is daughter of the
late Confederate General Withe,s, and
Miss Harrison is daughter of the late
James 0, Harrison, kirsman, bis.or al
and administrator OF Horny Clay.

ROANOKE, VA. MAY "a, 1894.
raE ELECTION TODAY.

The election to day in this city is an
important one. The people are now
called upon to decide as to whom shall
be entrusted the affairs of this city for
the next two years, y period during
which time will be shown whether the
onward march to prosperity and gre at
ness, which undoubtedly are before ue,
Is to be taken up anew or whether we
are to remain in the unsatisfactory
condition in which outward financial
depression, brought about by unwise
national laws, has placed us.
The only decision that can be made
Is in support of the Democratic party
1t is the party which Looks back to a
wise and honest administration OF the
affairs and the party that gives promise
of such conduct in the future. IL ia the
party under whose guidance the city
has become what it Is, and which only
can insure its continuance in it's onward
career.
While we can recognise among our
friends, the enemy, in the Roanoke men
who individually have done much for
this city, the people can not justly join in
support of the party whose chief strength
they hope to obtain from tho colored
voter. Not until the Repub liean party
absolves itself from the so called protec
sorate OF the negro is it entitled to
recognition as factor in building up
the South. We want the affairs OF this
city in the hands Of the intelligent white
people, but from the ultimatum recently
voters that they have been kept in the
background for the last time, we may
not expect continuance Of the present
state of affairs If the Republican party
should come into power.
The effect of this election, too, will
be noticeable in the campaign that is to
be entered into for the congressional
race in tho fall. 1t is imperative that
the Democratic psrty show its strength
here now and be In condition to enter
boldly into tue Issue IN =: 10 b, raised.
For this rea-on ~ eXp"c, iu.i u.rty
vote upon tao sv.igha ticaeu ihA. has
been placed in nomination.
We expect no dissension in the party
as the result OF the party primary. 1t
was squarely and honestly conducted
and those who entered into it are bound
upon their honor as Democrats to sup
port the favored few who were selected.
The leading defeated candidates have
been earnest in their work for the nomi
nees since the primary. They have
shown a loyalty that is to be admired
and patterned after
