LA 1IHS VISIT THE S iLOOSS. It An Incident Yecter.tay Afternoon that Caased a Itlpple-KfforU to Ut the Kara and Store to t'loae, for the Fife Meet- lag;. An nnuBual sight was seen in Char lotte late yesterday afternoon, was nothing more nor less than group of ladies going into the bar rooms. The object of the crusade was to persuade the saloons keepers to close up their places of business daring the hours of the Fife services, As soon as it became noised about that the ladies were raiding the sa loons, interested crowds stood about on the streets watchiug the progress of events. Every saloon in town wat visited, and the ladies were courte ou9ly received. One saloon keeper met them at the front door and airre ed to close if they would pay his ex penses. "Tne ixra will pay yon," one of the party replied. The saloon keeper told them he would not take that guaran tee. Mr. uari uoediger was cuttim: a sandwich when he was sturtled to see a party of ladles walk uptohlsbar. He dropped his knife smoothed down his vest aud met the ladies with a smile. "Whatcould h, do for them?" "Close up d urine the Mle services." "Herdinirlv. laties seruiugly. Dose odder fellows glose up, I glose ups doo." Mr. Roediger lainy capiurea tne laaiesny his po iiteuess. it was an occasion reouir- i 1 1 r .

They not ouiv visited the saloons, but every store of every description in the city. Nearly every person visited was willing to close up provided the others did the same aud in consequence of this no stores were closed to-day. It is very prob able, though, that the stores will be closed during the hours of service from Monday on. SHAKING THEM UP. HROTIIEU 1 IFE HOI'S VFUS THE l-RLH II YTF.lllA .VS. DUlU STORK.

Miss Aunie Haukin, who has pre sided over the art department of the Statesvillo Female Iustituie, will not return there next seasou, and thtre is a cause of great regret to he patrons of that school. Miss Rankin will go north with Mr. and Mrs. j.K. Rankin In a few davs. .nd w ill prosecute her art studies in N ew t ork. In its report of the commencement oxercisns of the college this week.the Ktatesvllle Landmark thus refers to M las Rankin's department: "After the exercises of last evening, as after those of the evening before, the au- lielice lxtook Itself to the large aparment opposite the chapel in which the worksof art are displayed rhe exhibit is hw i Idering.

Children C.y for Pitcher's Castorii Wa the rromollon lrwlpltatet A few days ago. Sergeant I. H. Bronson, who is in charge of the Cnlted States signal office here, re ceived an intimation from head quarters that he had become too much of a irood Democrat latelv. Somebody had been sending tale to headquarters about the sergeant. Vest. rJay afternoon Sergeant Rronson got notice from Washing ton that he was transferred from Charlotte to Duluth.M innesota. Mr. J. N. Iiyker of J.ynchhurg, is to suc ceed Sergeant Rronson at Charlotte. This change is a promotion for Ser jeant brouson, but if what Ihk News has picked up ahout the case is correct, the promotion was hast oued by the reports lodged at head quarters. Speakingfrotn personal knowledge. Thk NKwscan say that Sergeant Brousou has dabbled less iu politics thau any government officer that has ;eu stationed here in years pai. We have never known him to j Uilerui -ce to a political expression of any kind, and in fact, he has strictly attended to the business of his office, aud hats made a record that will he fouud as near perfect as that of any man in the service. The people of Charlotte can very easily free Ser jeant BroiiH.in from the" charge ol partizauship, "offensive," or otherwise. a son morrow riru lar TO'Morrow' ristcramme.

Clias. lCobinsoii Make I'leu Ievldedly One of the Most IntretiiiK of the Serleof Meetlns. A large crowd, mostly or ladles, greeted Evnngelist Fife at the audi torium this morning. Tne rain of last night served to temper the op pressive atmosphere of the last few days nnd the large building was very comfortable. After the choir sang "Nearer my God to Thee," Mr. Fife stepped to the front of the rostrum and said, that of all the tow ns that he had visited since he began his Evangelistic work, Charlotte was the most indifferent and that he had re ceived less encouragement iu Char lotte than any place that he had vis ited ; that he had at one timo thought of locating In this city, hut If this i was the way his own aenonnnauon intended treating him, that he would never put his family dow n in Char lotte, and also said that prominent hutch officer? instead ol being mere o help carry on Cod's work, were renting their houses for b.iriooms. Mr. Fife next said that statistics would show that for the past year, half of the number that had joined the Presbyterian church lio-i pro fessed Christ under his preaching and that his owu denomination had, iu every place he vtstted, been the most lukewarm and the most difficult to reach. At this juncture Rev. Mr. Robiuson,of t.raham street church walked upon the rostrum, i and iu an earnest way plead with the 'resbvteriaus of Charlotte to lay aside their pride aud little uiuer- encesand to join heartily in tbe work; that It was t.ojs work, ami that they would have to answer at the judgment for their ref ining in- lltf ere nee. Mr. Hotunson sain inai ust nefore he enter. d the auditor . . i. i. ...i um. a member oi me r.iuii-u n.m 1 him that there w a- too much Methodist fn Mr. l ife's reelings nd that he cotihi not oiu lu ami ne:p. .ui 'Robinson closed 1 y b.gging hi people to lay aside their pr. j ud ice and to join in the Master's work. Mr Fife thanked Mr. Robinson f -r w hat he had said and asked the co.i gregation to turn to the l-iih chapter of John's (iospel. and read it witli him, Mr. Fife reading one verse, the congregation the next. In comment ing on one of the verses, Mr. Fife re marked, that whefever he h:.d, been that some one, prompted by tin devil, had circulated "black lies" ah-uit hitu a. ul that Ch&rhute vu not an exception; that he had heard some lies going the rounds since I e came to Charlotte about him that were as black nd as low down us ever were told on anv one, hut tha: he thanked God that Christ was per secuted, even worse than he has been ; that he had never worn th crown of thorns, nor had the nii been drive n throt'gh his hands, or the Roman sjn ai :. trust in his shh but that if need he to bi ing Charlotu to Christ, all these w hs he w ;is wil ling t suiTer for the Master's sake. The congregation was deeply moved by tile ea:.u-l, yt-t simple, .iiuniier w hich these words ( ie said and many eyes wet'- bedimmed with tears. Mr. Fife thanked t.od that then were some good people in Charlotte, holding up his hand-, and thai God would reward them tor tl eir r.obh work, but that the majority of church members were sian iiug aloof and would take no part in the meet ings. As t' thes,. he asked thatG.ui would bless them ami show th-m their mistake. The i ..ug-list then asked for all that ' had friends that they wis ed brought to Chiist to stand up, and a num ber arose am! asked for pravers for their friends and families. Mr. l ib then said that he earnestly asked the t-rayers of the Cluistion peojd. f C;iai lotte f r a nnnisti r of tin gospel that lived iu Charlotte that v eut to a sister town and jumped oi hi. i because he pvachel against the w hi. y meu in that place and that sa me M I nister.sat bv a nd let a whole sale whiskey di it g for hi m, this needed conversation. Mr. Fife in speaking of the services of to-morrow said that Charlotte was the first place that he had ever visited that the Presbyterians had not closed their churches on Sunday, but that he noticed that both the 1st., and the 2nd churches pulpits would be filled to-morrow, this he said hurt him but that it was all right. A number of ladies and geutleinan stood up for prayer after which pruver was ottered in their behalf. The regular service will be held to night at b'-j o'clock and all are ex pected to be at the house to-nightthe doors will be locked after to-night. Two New Note From Concord. Tom Dixou had a good house last night to hear his address on Rack bone. The Y. M. C. A. agreed to pay him $100 for this lecture which they did and had a nice little sum left Dixon lectures in Bholbv to-uight. At a meeting of the Rlack Boys last night, the Rev Wright Camp bell was elected Captain to till the vacancy occasioned by the resigoa tiou.of John Reed, who is now dili gently studying medicine under Dr. Archy. The election ot Mr. Camp hell reflects credit upon the com pany and he will doubtless have the company up to a full standard of dicipline iu a short time. itallroad New. The board of directors of the Rich mond aud Danville Railroad yester day approved the proposition of the Georgia Pacific to lease the entire system of the Central Railroad and Banking Company of Georgia, and the documents were duly signed The narlieulars of the lease were given iu the Nkws several weeks ago.
