Abundant Water Supply.

For several years President
Bailey has been annoyed and
greatly lnconvenienced by the
limited water supply at the col
lege. Since the building was
erected four years ago, two large
wells have been dug upon the
campus, but on account of an un-
DERIVING stratum of granite they
could not be made deep enough
to afford sufficient water for al
purposes. Last week Mr.. w. j.
Hatcher installed q water system
that supplies water III abundance.
A ram wss placed in the ever
flowing stream some distance
above the college, and the ws ter
is conducted through pipes into
a large tank at the college. The
ram which pumps continuously
supplies about 5000 gallons a
day. This water is used for bath
purposes only, the water from the
wells being used for drinking
purposes.

Lest Faithful Horse.

misfortune to lose his faithful
horse last Thursday. The animal
was made sick by some unknown

horse flesh is commanding such
high prices, is no small mlsfort-

one else would, but had owned
the horse for several years and

Enforce Ordinance Against Shoot

Enforce Ordinance Against Shoot
ing.
The chirp of robins can be oc-
caeionally heard in the trees
about town, which reminds one
that the great nuisance and an
ncyanua of promiscuous shooting
on the streets will soon begin. We
do not know how it was in other
parts of the town, but We dc know
thst the forbearance and patience
of some Buncombites we're sorely
tried last year. The robin shooters
utterly disregarded the rights and
safety of not a few Buncombe
residents. Private premises were
invaded, and frequently shot
would fall upon residences and
about the yard, epdangering life.
If the ordinance prohibiting
shooting upon or near the streets
of the town is enforced this an
noyapce would net be repeated
this year. Let it be enforced.

Negro Woman Burned.

On Friday morning. last the
charred body of Emma Holloway,
was found at her home near the
site of the old depot. The woman
was afflicted with epilepsy, and,
presumably, fell in the fire while
seized with fit. Being alone in
the house, she was not
found until she had burned to
death. 1t having been suspected
by some that Emma was struck
fatal blow and thrown in the
Ere, Magistrate Brunson held an
inquest in compliance with the
Ilaw bearing upon such cases. DR..
J. G.. Edwards made the examina-
tiop. The jury rendered verdict
to the effect that death resulted
from falling in the fire while in q
fit, there being no evidence OF
any foul deed. Emma Holloway
killed a lad on the streets of
Edgefeld about two years ago by
striking him on the head with q
large earthen pitcher. She was
&C. victed of manslaughter but on
account of certain mitigating cir
cumstances was pardoned after
being in the penitentlary for sew
eral months.
