Mr. Daniel Dulln, a well known citisenof Meoklenburg, was serious ly hart as he was leaving town for bis horn In Crab Orchard township, yesterday afternoon. The accident occurred on D street, at the Carolina Central crossing. Mr. Duliu was seated on a wagon load of guano when an unexpected lurch threw him off and a bag of guano fell on him. He was carried to a neighbor ing house, and a messenger returned to the scene with Dr. Register, who found that the bones of one of Mr. Dulln's shoulders were broken. Dr. Register set the broken bones and Mr. Dulln was taken to his home In a buggy. He is well advanced in years and the accident is a serious one to him. Mr. Dulln was a brave soldier and served through the war in Co. A Eleventh North Carolina Regiment. At tbe battle of Gettysburg he re eeivtd a wound which made him a cripple for life. Itwasatthis same crossing that his brother, William Dulln was run over aud killed by a train, iu 1875. The ground hog prophets, tbe goosebone devotees, the believers in the changes of the moon where are they, and who is there to mourn for them? The goosebene said yester day would be a rainy day. It was the prettiest day we have had this year.The groundhog said today would tho very sort for ladles to come out and look at spring millinery, and there was a drizzle that made the services of the street spioklers un necessary. Then again, an old eiti- ren who could always tail when it was going to rain by the laxity or se verity of his rheumatic pains, was prancing about yesterday as happy as a sohool boy, with never a sign of an ache In his bones, and be would have been willing to have staked all his possessions on the prediction that today would be a glorious sunshiny day. Baker, loo, is floundering Ir the mire. Thb News has come to the conclusion that all these old w eather predicting paraphernalia are frauds, and the only way to predict the weather aright is to wait for to morrow and tell what sort of weather there was the day before. Kranirllat Pearaen In "lekile. Rev. R. G. Pearson is now holding services In Mobile, Ala. The Mobile Register says of his preaching: "Dr. Pearson has a peculiar but magnetic presence, standing erect, dark, frail in face, much like A. H. Stevens. His clear analysis, entirely unemo tional but convincing, holds one in close attention, and his striking ana logies srom nature and experience recall Henry Drumraond and Bishop Butler. It is already evident that his mission will be productive of much good here.'' Bn Trrrell. In a letter to Thk Nkws, dated Rockingham, March 17, Mr. John Springs Davidson says: "The Ham Jones of the Fanners' Alliance (Ben Terrell) held a revival at this place yesterday and to-day, and will be in Charlotte on next Friday. I hope the lukewarm and opponents to the great cause will turn out and hear it explained in Its true light, so they may be able to comment. It will be a great treat to the citlsens of Old Mecklenburg, and I think of vast benefit to many," V II A N G 1 N G :o: o- BUSINESS DAILY INCREASING EXTRA FORCE NEXT WEEK.

Postmaster Brady has been reor gaaizlng the corps of city delivery olerks,and several changes have been made. Mr. George Farrlngton, who was superintendent of tbe carriers, is succeeded by M. L . Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins' old place is filled by J. F. Correll, and Oddie Bradley, colored, succeeds to the place made vacant by CorreJl's promotion. Mr. Hawkins has been in the post- office service here for some time past and is thoroughly familiar with the duties of the position he now fills. He has filed his bond for $1,000 and has taken charge of the carrier corps. Mr. Brady has made all arrange ments for the removal of tbe office to the new Government building and will make the first delivery of mail from the new quarters on April 1st Mare Railroad Stw. A rumor exists in Atlanta for the last few days to the effect that a lajge movement was on foot as to the disposition of the Central Railroad of Georgia. It is said that the Ter minal Company will lease the Cen tral for 09 years. Pat Calhovn will go to Savannah this w eek aud will discuss the matter w ith the officers and directors of the Central Rail road there and with Uen. Alexander On the rumor that the road would be leased for 99 years, the stock, which has heretofore been selling from 110 to 112, has advanced to 118 ami 119. There is no doubt that the subject of the lease is now under discussion, nd the terms proposed guarantee 7 per cent, net on the stock of the Cen tral payable semi-annually. It Is understood that the lease win ie made under the name of the Georgia Pacific road Instead of the Terminal Company. This will make a contin- ous line from Savanuah to the Mis sissippi River at Greenville where here the road will connect w ith the Gould system and with their roads running direct to the Pacific Ocean, It is not Improbable that solid trains will run from Savannah to the Pa cific coaat within six months. It is understood that Mr. Gould is very much in favor of the lease, and says It will be a creat move toward tbe development of Savanuah aa a great port. This will also give a short line from Savanuah to Washington via Augusta. The "laterally. The mayoralty question manages toketpontop, and when you see a street group talking, two to one its about toe msyor s office. Mr. W, C. Maxwell, a former mayor, and the one who gave Charlotte her first brick pavements, seems to have the run of the town to-day. He is not a candidate, but his friends say that he cannot rsslst the pressure that will be brought to bear upon him. It Is understood that a call for ward conventions has been decided upon by tbe city executive committee and that the call will be Issued iua few davs. No one seems to be particu larly anxious foreign as mayor of Charlotte for the next two years, but modesty Is a characteristic of our people. The names Thk Nkws has heard mentioned In connection with the efflce are: MessrsF B McDowell, Harrison Watts, Fred Oliver, W I Maxwell, B R Smith, J 8 Spencer. Geo K Wilson, Geo S Hall, R B Al exander, J L Chambers. - - - - Ladies clean your kid gloves with Maher's Glove Cleaner.

This Is caused by the fact that the whole machinery of the license system hitherto In vogue has been changed, and the new tonnage system was put In oper ation in the midst of the season. The inauguration of the system has in volved much labor and delay, and to avoid mistakes, and at the same time keep up with the immense val- nrae of correspondence coming daily into tbe office, have constituted the chief causes of this enforced delay in getting the analyses out. The force of inspectors has been increased to four, and they are now traveling over the State and sending tbe sam pies in at a rapid rate. The force of skilled chemists in tbe Fertilizer Control Station has also been in creased to meet the extraordinary emergency caused by the increase of the number of brands offered for sale in the State, under tbe new order of things. Vaye It Cancentrated Lye. Durham Sun: Ella Thompson, a colored girl of about 15 years old, was arraigned before 'Squires McMannen and Barbee, this morning on the charge of giving Mr. Leon Kirk land's youngest child concentrated lye in coffee, or coffee in concen trated lye. She was refused bail and put in jail until next term of conrt Tbe child is very much injured and very sick. Tbe cause for this rash act is unexplained. This girl talks bat little. A Barrel af Hernets' ileili. Dr. Walter Mullen is known to fame as the proprietor of the Hor net's Nest Liniment, and some fel fow, who had an idea that hornets' nests formed an important compo nent part in the manufacture of the liniment shipped Dr. Mullen a barrel containing IS nests. Esquire Max well bought the lot for nse in the next 20th May shindig. Mr. Claude McLaughlin who has been connected with R. A. Lee A Co, of this city, for sometime past, has accepted a position as clerk of the Orton House, in Wilmington. Mr, Montague made a good selection that time, as experience will show, and if such a thing is possible, tbe Orton will hereafter be still more popular with the Charlote people.
