new planking Is to be laid. The ac
cumulation of "tar, "pitch and tur
pentine" which' has been taken up
,from the yard is being.hauled off in
city carts and laid on streets where
it is most needed. . It will last, a
long time.
Will Close for Two Days.
At a meeting of the Produce Ex
change,-held this day at noon, a
communication from Mr. W. A.
Willson, Secretaryand Treasurer of
the city, was read, conveying reso
lutions of the Board of Aldermen
looking to a general suspension of
business here on the 21st and 22d
inst., the days of the Fayetteville
Centennial celebration. The recom
mendations of the Board of Alder
men was fully approved and concur
red in and Col. Cantwell, Secretary
of the Exchange, was requested "to
notify Mr. Willson of the same. The
Exchange will therefore be closed
on those days and it is now in order
for the up-town merchants to act.

leading from the sand-hill to the
water-front is, however, about com
pleted, and connection will soon be
made there, when the work can be
rapidly pushed forward. Cross-ties
for this j-oad are being got out in
abundance near the city and are
being hauled and laid by the grade,
ready for use. Jt looks, as though
the work of construction is to be
pushed forward rapidly at an early
date.
The Lutheran Synod.
This body, composed qf delegates
from the several State District
Synods of the South, is called "The
United Synod of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church South." A tol
erably full delegation is in attend
ance, and there are a number of
visiting ministers attracted by the
interesting questions which are to
come before this body.
The church, St. Paul's Lutheran,
beautiful in its unadorned unique
ness, was made especially attrac
tive by some mottoes and emblems
on evergreen suggestive of the great
occasion, viz: the meeting of the
third convention of the United Syn
od, "Welcome", wrought In liying
green, and overarching the altar,
spoke to the heart as well as to the
eye. Suspended between the dates
1517 and 1889, and taken in connec
tion with the speaking picture of
Martin Luther nailing up the 95
theses, the loyal son of tte church
would easily imagine, tha, "wel
come" was the. musical intoning of
Lutherte hammer sounding down
through the intervening 373 years.
History, poetry and devotion com
mingled in the elaboration of gar
landed flowers and evergreens. And
if the Synod shall not be a pleasant
and profitable one it'will not be on
account of any lack in the welcome
and comfort extended by St. Paul's.
