Hendersonville, N. C., July 24.
In the ourly eighties when I used to
hunt the pleasant on adjacent moun
tains, oxplore the "Jlats" to the cast
of this than in October for wild
pigeons and bog throuth Mud crook
Swap11) at night in comnpally with low
country darkies with low country
; dogs, chasing tho coon that was
nover caught, this vas a very differ
ont place from the Hondorsonville
of today. To one with an eye for
the beautiful there were no attrac
tions--excepting the store of M. C.
Tomns, the merchant from spring
bonnets to grists mills, and was vtsi
te(1 by sumimr residents from miles
}around. The stores and principal
residences, which were also boarding
houses, wore on Main street-and
adornment was not fashionablo.
When, therefore, it was announced
siomle mlloltlls ago that a hotel of
largo dimensions and line appoint
mets was to be built here, it is not
surprising that some of the town a
dozen years ago shoul(1 have consid
erel the onterpriso as a doubtful
venture. But it is doubtful Lo
longer --the only question now being
whether the Wheeler House will not
have to bo enlarged before next sum
mer.
Ilendersonvillo has changed, the
people have changed, the methods
have changed. There aro cottages
and mansions with beautiful sur
ro(11(11n.lgs. Some of these are owned
by wealthy people from distant States
and more of that class are coming.
And this is natural. It is the high( st
tow:n on the Spartanulrg and Aslie

the country around is comparatively
loavol, aflordinr the best drives in
the mountain region, whielo as a base

T'hey say that the Ktt.uckiaas

discovering the superiority of Ihis
section1 as a s11111 r resort. Heroto
fore few Lonisvillians have wandered
so far south of the lan( of Bourbon

who havo come finding that although
moving "south," as they call it, they
hmave left. boltintd tohe lnd of heat,

Change from the red1 rye to the mel

in the mountains now fr'oum the blue
grass country, and1( hereafter the
suammer flight to this section from
the north and1 west will be as groat
as it nowv is from South Carolina andl
Georgia. But our* own people (1o
not fully appreciato this glorious
climate. Thoy called it hot here
yesterday and t.hoso mortals who
long since escaped the torrid tem..
p)eraturo of b)elowv, who toil niot and
sp)in not but yarn with lovers' knots,
were vainly enideavorintg after a test
of podestrianisin across the hills,
to find( moisture upon01 those brows
unusedl to the sweat of labor. And
all this time thme iman who had come
from blow that day and on the brow
of the Blue Ridge had experienced at
change as from the warm to the cold
rooms in a Turkish bathm, wtas wVonl

While t hero is aL "Dowioy"' hotel
somewhere abou0lt hero, i,ho Wheeler
HoL'uso is not so calledl in honor of
thle army at Sanitiamgo. Admirable
upon tile battlefield, the spare form
of the frugal- livin: old1( generaLl is not
to use as5 an advertisement on the
letterheads of a first class summer
resort-to those h1l been thore it
mlightl conjure up) ulebasanlt visions
of hard tack and other equally
temnpting it ems of t ha army rationer.
ment to the father -ai one of the p:
prietors, and( Ito is fortunate it ho
has another so worthy godchild.
The building, within five ruinutes'
drive of the station, is situated on a
comranding eminenco of easy ascent
to the right of the main street at the
northern extremity of the town. The
tiwolvo acres of wooded grounds will
be beautified in . way that has boon
impossible while building is in pro.
gres. And finishing touches are
still being put on the "Wheeler;"
with plenty of will and money it has
boon impossible to get manufacturers
to deliver promptly anything with
even a tinge of iron 'n it.
In shape the hotel is like a fanci
ful capital E, the middle leg, con
taining dining room and kitchen on
the first floor and ball room above,
as the wings. house has a front of
247 feet, along which extends a deep
plazza with high pitched roof.
There are angles and corners and
nooks and recesses provided by the
thoughtful architect, and a unthink
ing man strolling the length of this
walk at 11 o'clock p. in. fancies that
at each turn dark looks and flashing
eyes are turned 11)o1 hiiml ats an un
welcomed intruder, andi he feels like
b)acking of' and apologizing-there
are 148 people in the house, most of
them young, and, strange to say,
onough m1n to go around!
''he porto cochero is at the contre
front, the ontranco being directly in
to the spacious oflice, the dinning
room, 30 x 00, opening from the of.
fice. Wide halls extend to right and
left, while broad double stairways
lead upward on either side of the
(lining room doors. The ladies'
parlor is on the right of the ollice,
while a writing room and a smoking
room are adjoini iv on the left. The
spaco on the second and third floors
which corresponds to that occupied
by the oflice is given up to comforta
bly furnished lounging rooms for
ladies. Thes" are also the stairway
landings and are vory convenient.,
but f(r the lbst landing the architect
conce ved a charming idea. The
floor of the ball room, which, by the
way, :s pronounced by experts to be
best dancing -arr'ace over which they
have wvor guided the form of grace,
is several feet below that of the
seconI floor of dhe main building.
An nich is made in the ball room
wall, admitting its intorior to full
view of those occupying the spacious
lounging room. H[ere spectators
may sit instead of crowding the
danciag room, and horn wall flowers
may beat a graceful retreat and still
renlainl within "call" should the
wished- for knight appear. from
bo0th of tile ladies' sitting rooms on
the second1 and third floors, open
b)alconios comnmanding 111n0 moun
tain views, but the places for sight
seeing are in the observatories, sun
p)arlors, lovers' retreats or wvhatever
one may choose to call them, that
rise above the bnildmng prop1er at its
twvo extremes. From theore all the
famous mountains for forty miles
aroundI may be seen.
T1heo water supp)~ly of Hlendersonr
villo comes from a reservoir led by
sp)rings away up on a mountain
miles away. Besides being of the
pulrest, the pressur-e is so great that
reducers have to be used in thle hotel
where the toilet arrangements are
excellent. Twelve of the r-ooms
have private baths, while .there are
tile same number aor general use;
both wings of each floor have every
convenmence in this respet.
While steam heat is not leen here
considoered a luxury at this season it
probably will lbe ini several fall even
ings before tho last of summer- vism
tor-s tear themselves awvay. Thoi
budding has steam heaters through
out, anid hats, asi alt mod ern hotels
must now have electrical i llumina
tion. An elevator run by the hy
draulic powver, will bo in operation
ini a few diays, when even the slight
exert.on of negotiating these easy
stairs wvil1 be necessary,
In the basement of the centre ex
tension, wvhich is 145 feet long, there
is am ple room for the billiard room,
bar, barbor shop, hotel bakery anid
servants' (lining hall. Ini a sepa
rate building, I 00 foot long, is the
ten~ Nn doubb~ alley.
Tho furnishirgs of the Wheeler
fr-om narnor to kitcen na new a
appropriate. It may be burning
money to carpot the parlors and halls
of a summer hotel, but as this one
will also be run in the winter I sup
pose the proprietors desire to make
no discrimination between the guests
of the two seasons. The bedroom
floors are covered with matting;
their furniture is quartered oak, nat
ural color.
All interior finishings are of a very
line grade of Georgia pine. The
three foot wainscotting throughout
the house, the ornamentation on
columns and the ceilings of the din
ing and ball r,ms are of this ma
terial. The remainder of the walls
are white, plaster paris finish.
A most commendable feature are
the fire escapes being built on each
wing, and as there are stairways
leading from the centre and both
ends of the building loss of life in a
fire is practically impossible.
The associations of the dining
room linger with something akin to
sacred memory in the minds of many
very superior people but as I may
not be included among any of that
class, an apology for not anchoring
hope and faith to the substantials of
the table would be too much of an
assumption; however, there are few
who do not know a good thing when
they have it thrust upon them; the
service hero is good and the fare ex
cellent--and that last word, by the
way, when used with consideration,
covers a whole lot; a column full of
them could do no more.
The proprietors of this hotel are
South Carolinians. H. C. Bardin,
as the proprietor of Newborry's
best hotel, is known and ap
preciated by all travelers who
have visited that town in late
years. Mr. S. F. Wheeler, also
of Newberry, is the son of one of the
wealthiest men in the county, and
one who has done much to advance
the interests of Nowborry. Both
are young enough to have new, pro.
grossive ideas and they have the
energy and money to carry them
out.
Messrs. L. E. Riley of Greenwood
and C. II. MKagor of Sumter, are
the clerks. In years gene by the
legs of Greonwood ].ileys have
shown in front at the finish of many
a bicycle race; now, with as great
strength and more grace, they may
bear the man of arms with the bur
den of many clinging maidens (one
at a time) upon the polished floor.

Tie supremie court having reeni .1ly
declared that ollicors, such as dis.
ponsary constables, cannot carry
concealed weapons, the following
order was sontl to the captains of the
force this inrning, with Governor
MlcSwee':ty':. fi.provatl:
"Dear Sir. Covernor M:LSwooiiev
directs me to have you instruct the
constables under your command not
to carry concealed weapons. The
supremo court has recently decideid
that a weipon cannot lawfully be
carried concoalt.d. If weapons are
carried they must be exposed.
"Rospoetfutlly,
\W. \V. Harris, Clerk."
Mr. Harris, in speaking of the
carrying of weapons by constables,
says that the State does not furnish
them with pistols novare they in.
structed to use them. Whatever
pistols are carried by constables are
their own property. It, has been
generally believed that constables
are armed ly the State, but. Mr. Ianr
ris says that this is incorrect. Gov
ernor Tillman had them supplied
with pistols, but during "overnor
Evans' administ ration they were all
called in, and since that. time when
constables carried pistols they had to
buy them themselves.
It is a fict, nevertholess, that the
constabulary generally went about
armed, but if they do so hereafter
they must carry their weapons ex
posed as pliceluemo usually do.
