Four years ago, when our City Schools were established, the cor porate authorities, bought the build ing, and exchanged it to the A. M. E. church for the building on College Street now used for the white City School, the corporation paying-the difference in price to the church erec tion iund of the Northern Methodist Church. By the terms of the deal the W. & W. building became the property of the A. M. E. Church, the city retaining the privilege of using the first story for the city colored school. A. II. Joyce and Itosena Spears have been the teachers in the colored City School ever since It was estab lished, and although there was con siderable opposition to them among the colored people,they were re-elected for the coming terra, which was to open next Monday. Joyce had been absent from town during vacation, but returned Thurs day. There is little room to doubt that the building was fired by an in cendiary, and that the motive for it was the opposition to Joyce and his assistant teacher. The Board of Mayor and Aldermen held a call meeting Thursday and offered a re ward of $250 for the arrest and con vicuon or the incendiary, and it is hoped that the guilty party or parties may be apprehended, and full justice meted out to them.

Within the last few weeks we have had many visitors from this and other States, all of whom, with- out a single exception, have express ed themselves as delighted with Ben Lomond. They seem surprised that a hotel with suitable accommodations for summer visitors has not been built before this. We talked to many of them, asking them to buy lots and build cottages. Some ex pressed themselves as willing to do so if they were certain a hotel would be built at which to take their meals. They like the water, air and scenery, and would be glad to summer here were there suitable accommodations. We believe if the owners of this beau tiful summit were to expend a few hundred dollars each in building even a small hotel and beautifying the grounds, they vtfould then have a de mand for lots, on the sales of which they would receive enough to cover expenses of building a small hotel. Until some steps nre taken by the property owners to provide accom medations we cannot hope to have much demand for lots. We believe every dollar properly and wisely ex pended here by the company would Drove profitable. We submit these thoughts for their consideration, hop ing they will at least give the matter some consideration in time for next season. Now is the time to begin if thev desire to build in time for next summer. It. Washington, Aug. 11, 1890. Republican audacity can scarcely go farther than it did on Saturday when one of the doorkeepers of the House, claiming to be acting under instruc tion from the Speaker, attempted to use force to prevent Representative Enloe leaving the House for a few minutes. Mr. Enloe, as any other American citizen would have done. nsisted upon his right to go and come as he Dleased. Later. Mr. En- oe brought the matter before NfMlNU TAMLL LINKS. KMLS, TIPS. tiUIIMS AND HORNS. me nouse as a question of personal privilege, and very naN urally wanted to know if the Speaker had issued such instructions, and if I so by what authority. The Speaker denied having issued such instructions ; but at the same time stated it as his opinion that the door-keeper had done right. Saint Joseph Cannon, who is second only to Mr. Iteed in audacity, defended the action of the insolentdoor-keeper. Mr. Enloe protested that if officers of the House were to be given the au thority to keep members in the House against their wills, they would some day keep them out of the House by the same authority. The matter was finally referred to the committee on the Judiciary, and a majority of that committee being re publicans but little is to be expected in the shape of justice. Truly one might ask, under what form of Government do we live? Oliver Cromwell found it' necessary to use a regiment of soldiers to dis perse the English Parliament : but the mvrmidons of SDeaker Iteed. without the strength of an aimed CAPITAL, body, attempt to control the actions of democratic members of the House by sheer audacity. What a spectacle for a free country.

The talk about the bill having been modified by the commit tee is bosh ; it has been simplified to a certain extent, but it remains one of the most obnoxious measures ever attempted to be forced upon a de fenseless people.

He was a soldier in the war of 1812, but never applied for or drew a pension. The entire line of the Bristol, Eliza bethton & North Carolina Railroad to Mountain City, is now under con tract, and is to be completed during the current year. ei and the the republicans, as if to make the bill still more unjust to the South, adopted an amendent raising the duty on cotton ties. Mr. IMaine's reciprocity idea is ahead, and the indications are that it will certainly be adopted by the Sen ate, but in the House, where Speaker Reed, who is bitterly opposed to it, is sole Monarch, it may possibly be defeated. Messrs. Reed, McKinley and other of the Chinese wall high protection wing of the republican party, are trying to convince Mr. Harrison that it will be ruinous to him and his party for him to send a message to Congress favoring reci procity, as he has promised to do. The republicans of the House, par ticularly Mr. Reed and his coterie, have persistently antagonized the workingmen of the country during this entire session of Congress, and if they do not hear from it at the com ing elections it will be strange indeed. The employes of the Government printing office are threatening to make trouble because an amendment providing lor the erection or a new building for that establishment was stricken out in the House. The need of this new building is conceded by all, but it is refused in order to enable the republicans to pose as econo mists. Senator Morrill, who has gone away ill, is not in favor of reciprocity; he says its only logical outcome will be free trade. Mr. Wanamaker says the new style of postal cards in several sizes will be almost equal to penny letter postage. Mr. Wanamaker is mistaken; there is as much difference as there Is between the present Postmaster General and a Statesman. The entire administration and all of the Washington pension attorney, either in person or by proxy, have eone to the G. A. R. encampment at Boston. The first named is in search of political capital, and the last of hard cash in the shape of applications for pensions. THE FALL PAIRS. Dates for Those to Be Held in Tennes see, Kentucky and Alabama.

At 9 o'clock this morning the denizens of Waldron and vicinity, living near" Ogden grave yard, ten miles southeast of this point, were thrown into great excitement by the upheaval of the earth and the falling of stones and mud in the neighborhood. About three miles south of Waldron, at a point where Conns creek empties into Flat Rock river, the streams form a horseshoe bend and within the bend are about ten acres of land. At this point an upheaval occurred tearing holes In the ground and igniting surrounding objects from burning gas. The river-bed is rent with great fis sures and the water is pouring down into the earth, leaving the bed dry. Geysers in various places are throw ing mud, water and gas to a height of fifteen feet, and the whole surface of the river is aflame. Great noises are heard from the earth and the road which runs alongside the river has sunk ten feet. Excitement pre vails throughout the country and the citizens who live near the scene are much alarmed. A negro named Levi Gordon shoj and killed his wife at Lebanon last Sunday night. An attempt was made by the pri9 oners in the jail at Fayetteville to escape last Monday, but they were met at the door by the jailor's wife with pistol in hand, and held back until assist nnce arrived.
