Finest of all hostelrles in thin I part of the State, the new Vir ginia Dare may be classified a* I the section's first "skyscraper" as, well. It is nine stories high, and: the upper stories command a j strikingly beautiful view of the \ upper reaches of the wide, placid. Pasquotank lllver. It Is a com-1 munlty venture, financed by pop-j ular stock subscriptions, and will! represent an investment of about j 96oo,ouo. in all, there are 536 stockholders. The 100 guest rooms in the ho tel are complete, except for pa pering, decorations and furnish-f Ings. Every guest room is equipped with bath or showers, and all| plumbing and electrical Installa tions have been made, except for lighting fixtures. Workmen at present are en-1 gaged In plastering and other ac-! llvltles on the main and mezza nine floors of the hotel, and in completing the two story arcade| that will afford entrance fromj Main street.

Firemen Guardians Of Young Family In Elm Tree The boys at tlic Fire Depart-1 nu-nt have taken a new and tin-! usual responsibility upon tlicm-j seives in the last few days, in un dertaking to bring safely to ma- | turliy a family of woodpecker**! known here ax the "shirt tall" va-J rlety. For several months, the fire men have obaerved a pair of grown woodpeckers disporting themselves ' on the poxtofflce lawn, in quest of bugs and morsels of various sorts that appeal to the palate of a bird. The boys became quite accustomed to them. The other day, city workmen cut n rotten limb out of a large elm In front of the residence of J. S. Seeley, Sr.. adjaeent to Are headquarters. In the hollow of the limb, they found the nest of the woodpeckers that they had luen watrhlnK for so Ion*. In It! were three young ones, their, mouths open wide, squawking for provender. The Fire Department boys took a ladder, climbed the elm, and found another hollow that ap peared suitable, and placed the i nest In It. All day InnK, the grown woodpeckers searched anx-| lously for their young, and at nightfall they found and fed them. The new nesting place had one disadvantage. The hollow was so situated as to let In the rain. Taking due note of that, the fire, men procured a piece of tin and Improvised a roof, which they nailed above the nest. The woodpecker family took to! their new quarters with high en thusiasm. and are disporting as merrily as ever, ffhe firemen feed them regularly, and watch Inter estedly as the older birds carry morsels to drop Into the yawning beaks of their young BAIDWIN DOES NOT EXPECT SEE COOLIDCE Quebec, July 30.?

With (he expense of drilling the well running around $50 .? day, according to the dril lers' figures, and the cost of the well Turing $20 a frmt, according to Orr's own statement, many fear that the $6,000 will run out be fore oil Is struck, or that a drill will become stuck In the well, and operations be suspended. rtllMXKY PII<K PI T Of T Firemen Were called out Satur day morning a* 7:15 to extlngiilah a chimney blaze at the home of ?fr. fr hm-wan. cntnred. mt aoiuigr street There was no dam age.
