ASHEVILLE
AND VICINITY
TEATUHES OF THE LAND OE
THE SKY.
No Scencrjr More- Picturesque Than
tho Mountain Country of North
Carolina Ashovlllo the Saratoga of
tho SouthA Cosmopolitan City on
"Seven Hills" Hotels and Clubs.
N'otlli Carolina Is not nloiui Kreitt In
her industrial and inalcrlal wealth; who
In majestic and sublime In tha ntnpend
otts works of the Almighty, as portrny
ed In towering mmmtalns and deep
shadowed goi-Res and Immense forests.
The East has Its White mountains, the
Vest has Us Hockles und Its Sierras,
and British Columbia her Caseadcs, her
Hold and her Solltlrks and AhtBka her
St. Ellas Alps, whoso barren but majes
tic summits pleree the very heavens,
noble fortresses and features of
strength on nature's face. All these we
have been permitted (o behold In their
beauty and grandeur, but nowhere In
this country Is there a region more
picturesque, more charmingly beauti
ful than tho mountain country of
western North Carolina, poetically
known as "Tho Land of tho Sky."
While It Is true lho.se of tho West are
of greater elevation, rugged, barren
and forbidding, those found In western
northern Curolla In the picturesque
nine llldge and other ranges of the
great Appaloclmn chain, which forms
the "divide" between the waters of the
Atlantic ocean and tho Mississippi
river are robed in deep lnieil forests to
their highest summits. Where the
greater peaks of the Hocky mountain
ranges frown, those of the "The I.aud
of the Sky," smile through banks of
rhododendrons and azaleas. Where the
valleys of the one arc rocky and- im
passable gorges, In tho other are fern
carpeted forests through which moun
tain streams, clear as crystal tumble
merrily along over moss-grown rocks
in their race to the open. Let the rend
ers picture in the mind a region where
rango after range of heavily forested
mountains paralled each other like
waves of the sea, where interlacing
valleys are rich with verdure and
flowers and where silver streams mur
mur unceasingly. Imagine too a land of
bright, winsome skies, then add to
tills glory, air so light und pure, so full
of tonic and softness, that every breath
sends a new Hush to the cheek and u
new sparkle to the eye, then throw over
all a. canopy of bluest of Italian blue,
and you have "The Land of tho Sky,"
where the Joy of living becomes in
tensified as nowhere else in tills coun
try. This rugged mountain region em
braces the extreme western portion of
North Carolina and' the eastern edge
of Tennessee. Its area Is tho equal of
Switzerland and acknowledged to be a
worthy rival in majestic beauty and
sublimity. Within these confines are
several districts alike in their general
features, but each having distinct
charms and advantages peculiarly Its
own. All of it is widely mountainous,
there being more than twenty peaks
higher than the famous Mout Washing
ton of New Hampshire and over four
score, almost as massive and high,
exceeding 5,000 feet clothed to their
very summits with a growth of heavy
timber. There are some 150 stupendous
luecipiees, such as Caesar's Head and
Whiteside, tho latter presenting a per
pendicular front of naked- rock, ISO feet
la height.
ELEVATED PLATEAU.
In this elevated plateau of North
Carolina, the highest body of land east
of the Itockies Ashevllle, "the mecca of
health seekers." Is located 2,:i00 feet
above sea level higher than any city
east of Denver. In every direction
tho mountains raise their majestic
heights, until they seem to pierce the
very azure of the skies. Its geo
graphical location, lying as It does In
the central belt of the temperate zone,
Insures the most delightful spring
climate. No bleak Northerners can
pass over tho mighty peaks which
guard tin: Northwest and the soft in
fluence of the Oulf Stream Is felt far
into the interior. There is perfect free
dom from the extremes of either heat
and cold, and the vitality in the air,
laden as it is witli the balsam of the
pines has an Immediate effect upon the
visitor.
A large proportion of the days dur
ing the year are sunny, the average of
clear days being 2.19. Many days In
winter one feels as comfortable In the
bright sunshine, as lie would in June,
North, and picnicking parties to the
woods with lunch baskets are frequent
in February. The winter temperature ot
Ashevllle is several degrees warmer
than that of Geneva, Switzerland, and
Turrln, Italy, and fourteen iVegrecB
warmer than In the Swiss Alps, where
thousands of patients are sent every
winter by specialists for the beneficial
effects of Its mountains air.
Tho rain fall is very small, only 10.'.!
Inches, while that of Aiken, Is .!": At
lanta, 02,7 ami Jacksonville, tio.fi Inches.
One distinguished visitor remarked:
"The air ot tho region lias such pecu
liarly bracing and Invigorating quality,
electrical in character, so much so, I
feel na If breathing champagne," Ashe
vllle has the dryest oilmato tho year
round, ot any point eoHt of Denver, ac
cording to tho V iiid States Signal
Service otllclal I'.-ilo.
SArtATOClA OK ' '.IK Sol'TH.
Aslievlllo has been t . ' the "Sara
toga of the South," Im i t .... is hardly
correct, for there Is not a single point
In which comparison of natural advan
tages cun be made, which would not
bo in Ashevlllo's favor. Climate, scen
ery, health and atmospheric conditions
are incomparably better at Aslievllle.
I repeat nature has so encircled this
beautiful city with rugged mountain
scenery that tho traveller coming from
which direction ho may, litis presented
to him with kaleidoscopic changes, a
panorama which for sublimity and
grandeur is surpassed In but few spots
In the world.
Its situation between tho Alleghany
mountains, tho ltluo itldgu and the
Great Smoky ranges and (lie Swan
nanoa und French 1 Irani rivers, over
looking a thousand square miles of
supberb scenery, lias given it tho name
of "Tho City of tho Skies" and tho
Newport and Saratoga of tho South,
combined. Once the resort of Southern
people only, Its famo having gono
hroughout the world, It is now u
favorite resort for Englishmen and
sther foreigners of rank anil letters
who Jlnd congenial society among the
many literary guests centered here,
(lockjut? from tho South In Bummernnd
"rom the North in winter, lingering
until the Solstices aro well spent, What
Lenox In Massachussetu Is to the Ilerlc
hlre Hills sociully, Ashevllle Is to "The
Land of the Sky," In Curollna. It lius
Seen frequently called the social capital I
of tlio South both winter and summer
and the designation Is by no means
overdone.
Tho healthtulncsH of Aslievlllo Is
Wonderful unil malaria, tho dlschse of
the century, and hay fever, that In
deserlbnhto yearly visitation are un
known In this Bcctlon, while pulmonary
and throat troubles, soon mieeumb to
Its balmy nlr. Tho itvorage mean tem
perature Is fi!) degrees and whereas In
Now England, the deaths from con
numptlon aro 250 In every thousand,
and oven In "Minnesota and California
1C0, In Carolina, tho "Land ot thcUlue
Sky" there aro but thirty out of overy
thousand who succumb to this Insidious
disease.
Its location on "Seven Hills," provides
natural drainage to tho valleys of the
French Jlroail itiuV the Swnnnanoa
rivers, which In forty miles falls 1700
feet. Thus it will bo seen at a glance,
with this great and perfect system this
locnllty must bo absolutely free from
nil malaria.
COSMOPOLITAN CITY.
Aslievlllo is a cosmopolitan and
cultured city. Tho business portion of
the city centers about tho public
square, where stands the picturesque
old court housr, tho modern municipal
building, the city hall, In the basement
of which is tho public market, the legal
building, the newspaper ollloes, many
stores and other business edifices.
Itadlatln from tho square all tho
streets tiro solidly built up with brick
business blocks. On all sides of these,
lies the residence part of the town,
built on tho undulating land, not too
closely, the average residence lot hav
ing a seventy-live foot frontage. Lance
Monument is located hero. There are
few cities in the South which have as
largo a number of beautiful residences
according to Its population as Ashe
vllle. Many people from all over the
country have been attracted here on
nccnunt of its delightful and healthful
climate and making Ashevllle their
permnnent home, have built modern
and In many instances luxurious homes,
one of them Mr. CSeorge Vandorbllt,
the most costly residence in America.
A worthy description of It will require
a special letter. Ashevllle has a per
manent population of 14,000 und several
thousaml visitors wiio sojourn at tho
various hotels, as a health resort.
The visitor Is at once favorably Im
pressed with the progressive character
of its citizens, who evince a strong
town pride in advancing the material
Interest of the community and any
new comer of merit and enterprise,
meet with instant recognition and
support. Since it has become an all
tho year round health-resort it has
had a vigorous growth and an active
air of commercial life and upon every
turn there are Indisputable evidences
of thrift und prosperity. The shopping
center of Ashevllle, Is so up-to-date In
all Its features that one might well be
lieve themselves In a city of no.OOO pop
ulation. The well stocked stores, the
live and energetic set of merchants and
the high grade nature of the local
population, indicate the substantial
character of its retail trade. The retail
business of Aslievlllo 'Is upwards of
$3,000,000 a year. The city has spent
upwards of ?GO(i,000 in paving all the
principal streets, (some twelve miles),
with asphalt blocks and completing a
system of general sewerage, (now laid
twelve miles), made easy by the topo
graphy of the locality, also an excellent
water supply. There are eleven miles
of electric street railway and the streets
are lighted also by electricity. A dum
my has been constructed up Sunset
mountain from where is obtained one
of the most beautiful views In tho
world. Here are several handsome
churches and school buildings.
AN EDUCATIONAL CENTEIt.
Ashevllle has become quite an educa
tional center and has several well
known institutions of learning of the
highest excellence. The Hinghum
school, for boys, established in 1798!, long
known as one of tho best of its class
In America; the Ashevllle college, it
school, for girls and young women;
Miss Chumplon's school, for girls; the
Skyland Institute, the Ashevllle Free
Klndergarden association, with four
schools maintained by private sub
scription and tho Ashevllle "Business
college. The most Important and one
of great Interest to us, having received
substantial aid from the Presbytery
of Lackawanna, through the "Woman's
Home Missionary Hoard," are tho
"Home Industrial School" with Miss
Florence Stephenson as superintendent,
which Is doing a noble work In the
lino of practical education for girls,
and tho "Ashevllle Normal and Col
legiate Institute," established for the
higher education ot young women for
teachers, organized by Ttev. L. Jr. Pease
und now under the control of the
Northern Presbyterian church with
Itov. Dr. ThomiiH Lawrence as superin
tendent. Those two Institutions are lo
cated' in a beautiful park of thlrty-ilvo
acres on one of Aslievllle's "Seven
Hills" and aro worthy ot an extended
description, which may appear at an
early day. There Is also the Ashevllle
Farm School, occupying 420 acres
which has over one hundred students,
who are taught agricultural work on
approved and practical seieiitllli! lines,
Awhovllle luH for years past been
famous for its hospitality to "tho
stranger within Its gates," as tho guests
at its commodious and maguillcicnt
hotels will testify. The most noted aro
the Mattery Park hotel, the J"nllworth
Inn, the Mnrgo Terrace and the Albe
inavlo manor and cottages. All are
worthy of special mention but as tho
limits of this article only permits a
brief description of the striking features
of this highly favored section and Its
attractive city. Its schools and semin
aries, T can only describe two tho Itul
tery Park ami Konllworth inn.
HATTEltY PARK HOTEL.
This beautiful Unitary Park hotel,
which lias been happily termed "tho
lialf-way house between tho Ninth and
the South." stands on an eminence I'.T,
feel above the streets of Ashevllle,
which Is built around tho foot of iho
noble hill which tho hotel so becom
ingly crowns, Tho hotel stands In tho
center of a natural park of twenty-live
acres and possesses tho attraction of
being practically or the city and yet
not In It, for whllo It Is not a moment's
walk Into the very center of Aslievlllo,
yet It Is entirely removed from all the
turmoil and dust. The hotel Is sur
rounded by a grove of undent oaks and
presents a most Inviting and pictur
esque appeurauce, It Is so secluded In
Its own euviorument that the sojourner
within Its hospitable wall may Hud, If
they desire ubsoluto rentfuliiegH and re
pose, or among Its cosmopolitan guests
may llud the Intellectual of all nations,
or may enter Into tho guyetles of the
most refined amusements.
This beautiful structure Is en closely
associated with Aslievlllo, that the
names, are almost synonymous. It
derives Its name from its being located
on a historic spot, the very point whero
tho Confederates planted a battery of
artillery, for tho- defence of the city
during tho Civil war. Then the grim
Instruments of death glared viciously
over the breast works, which still re
main, but long since tho cannon have
yielded their placea to flowers and
shrubs and the happy Voices of children
nro heard' as they romp over thn Well
turfed slopcn. Tho hotel Is modern and
architecturally beautiful. Its frontage
Is 475 feel and wide, comfortable Ver
nndas, encompass It on all sides, they
aro so broken by gables, oriel and bow
windows, that tho dimensions deceive
tho eyo. They aro made doubly attrac
tive In summer by an nbundanco of
floral baskets and wldo awnings nml
In winter enclosed- In glass, ho that In
Inclement weather, the Invalid guests
may enjoy their sun-baths and
promenades without leaving tho hotel.
Tho main ofllco or rotunda is most
home-like and attractive with Its huge
and old fashioned furniture broad and
graceful stairways and easy stairs.
Directly off tho rotunda, on one side,
aro the spacious parlora and on the
other a series of tastefully furnished
connecting rooms, devoted' to the use
of the ladles for writing, reading and
billiard playing. The ball room Is ir0
xBO feet and ono of the handsomest
of any resort In the country. Tho hotel1
Is heated by steam, and open Are
places and lighted wholly by electricity.
The house Is especially adapted for an
all-tho-year-round patronage. Tito
Tho manager, Mr. E. I. McKissick, also
proprietor, is a gentleman, whose genial
personality and' all around good fellow
ship, has given him a reputation as an
ideal host which has reached far be
yotind the limits of North Carolina.
A SWELL FEATL'ItE.
I should mention one of the popular
and enjoyable features of the hotel,
the "Swonnonoa. Hunt club." It Is the
swell "feature" socially of the city, Its
leading people being members and Its
balls which aro held at tho Hattcry
Park are brilliant affairs. The club has
two houses, one occupies a pleasant
place on the lawn ot the hotel adjoining
the conservatories, the other near Sul
phur Springs, four miles from tho city.
All guests ot tho hotel aro made wel
come at either club, and for those who
do not care for fox hunting, the hotel
provides an ample supply of either sad
dle or driving horses, as an out-of-door
exercise. The club houses are artlstlc
nlly furnished with mementos of the
chase, trappings, and pictures of the
hunt, special room being fitted' up for
ladles who ride in, or enjoy the chase.
So I might enumerate. This feature
added to golf, fishing and hunting for
big game, makes Aslievlllo an Ideal
spot for sportsmen. The Battery Park
in nil respects ranks among the most
complete resorts In the South. Truly
the haven of health, recreation and
pleasure unalloyed.
From the hotel veranda, a marvelous
vista, opens before the eye. The scene
changes with the hours for tho rosy
lights of morning, the glare of noon
day and the shadows of the evening,
give each In their turn a new and
varied charm to the view tho most
mugniflcient panorama of mountain
scenery in America.
What do wo see? Dominating the
city like the copltol nt Woshlngton,
one looks out on every side across an
interval of compacted brick and mortar
to circumjacent hills and' wooded ridges
crowned with modern villas. In the
near foreground are the well paved
streets. and boulevards and handsome
homes of Aslievlllo. To the left two
miles on a higher plateau the capacious
Kenilworth Inn, proudly overlooking
the city and valley and adjoining It
in full view, some three miles distant,
tho noble Vandorbllt chateau and
directly In front, as a grand center
piece of this array of mountains stands
old Plsgah, 0,717 feet high witli its sen
tinels on each side forming a gigantic
loop 230 miles long by CO miles wide.
The loftiest range is the Black moun
tains and said by geologists to lie the
"oldest land" In America. The highest
peak Mount Mitchell, C.711 feet or 42t
feet higher than Mount Washington.
Cllngmau's Dome. 6.GG0 feet is the high
est peak ot tho Smoky mountains,
ftlchland Balsam, the highest peak of
the Balsam, the Yellow mountains, fi,133
feet the highest in the Cowee range,
whllo Standing Indian and Wayah
Bald aro 5,500 feet, the loftiest peaks in
the Nantahula range and the Tusqulttee
peaks rise to an elevation of 5,314 feet.
There are 13 mountains in western
North Carolina that tower over C.OOO
feet high
KENlLWOUTIt JNN.
The first view which the traveller
from the North has of Ashevile, is that
of the superb Kenilworth Inn, which
graces like a queen, a noble hill, en
circled by mountains and overlooking
the city, 200 feel below and two miles
away, and the beautiful French Broad
and Swaunonoa rivers In the valley, 'Its
many picturesque gables ami towers
aro seen for miles, either up or down
the fertile valleys.
A few years ago a party of Northern
capitalists, among them (leariro W.
Vanderbllt, attracted by tho equable
climate and beauties ot Aslievllle, pur
chased a tract of 100 acres upon the
sunny slops of Beaumont mountain,
within tho 'city limits and erected this
massive, beautiful structure which from
any point of view Is picturesque from
without and Inviting and home-like
from within. Tho roadway, leading
from Blllmore station Is deeply ma
cadamized and winds gracefully up
through the ravlno and woodland' to the
hotel just on lop of the foot-hill. Tho
porio cochere, marking Its entrance
Is constructed of granite and Is built
In tho stylo of a fortress. This first
story of the Inn is built of stone and
surounded by piazzas, soma twenty
feel In width, which aro duplicated mi
tho stories above, Tho porches cover
1,000 feet of surface and aro broken up
to glvo variety. Within the towers are
two mugnlllclcut sun parlors, thirty
three feet In diameter from which can
be obtained views covering 1,200 square
miles of' territory, including 2ii peaks, of
tho 43 to lio found In this section, which
are higher than Mount Washington, or
anything east of tho itocky mountains,
the highest being Mount Mitchell, 0,742
feet high. ,.
To say that the olllce Is largo and
airy, the parlors elegant ami dainty
and nlso home-Ukc, tho music attrac
tive, hardly expresses tho Impressions
of tho curious visitor, It Is simply per
fection, an Ideal homo. Looking from
tho knoll and two hundred feet below,
Is iho Swunnanon river, tho most
beautiful stream, with three sets of
rapids in tha Immediate view, lending
muslo to the scene, while a shady
road of twenty miles along Its banks is
one romantic drive, Tho hotel faces
the south ami overlooks tho magnlfl-
'clent estute of George W. Vanderbllt
which It joins and a view of this spot
that he bus chosen above all others to
be his homo whero ho has Bjient his
millions a beautiful beyond description.
