IiaiUE POOLINGS.
The bovine, taurine, or .btill question
is still receiving some-attentiom . ' '
The telephones are ceasing to bei play--tilings,
and their utility is beginning to
appear.
Politics are again red liot. .The pic-J
nic to-dayy however offers -a short re
huaticm.' ' 1 '
This week has been and will be quite
gay with private and semi-private en
tertainments. .
The mayor's: conrt has ceased to fur
nish news. Nothing to speak ot' before
it for three. weeks.
All three of the candidates for the
mayoralty are pledged to. abide by the
nomination of the convention to-uight.
Charlotte furnishes her own orators
for the 10th and 20th of May., It is the
first time such a thing has: occurred,
but it should not be the last
There are only twenty-five bar rooms
in Charlotte and two beer delivery
wagons. This is a much smaller num
ber than is generally thought.
Are the mineral springs near the city,
which a year or two ago were the topic
and the resort, to be neglected this
Spring and Summer? " ?
The municipal canvas is alii, the talk
just now. The convention to-night
will, from present indications, be well
attended.
The young ladies held a meeting yes
terday afternoon to prepare for decora
ting the armory of the Hornets' Nest
Kitlemen for the company's visitors
from Columbia.
Koadmaster Warren, of the Charlotte,
( qlumbia & Augusta Railroad, had his
hand quite severely inashedwhite at
tempting to couple a car on the road be
tween Charlotte and Chester.
The preparations for the operetta at
the residence of Mrs. S. V. Young are
now completed and all who have heard
the rehearsals agree that a very charm
ing entertainment is in store for those
who go.
It is extremely quiet around the
court house now. The only man whose
equanimity is disturbed is the sheriff,
and this is because the people don't
come along with their taxes.
The telephone to tbe Reduction
Works wasmt up yesterday. It is the
last. The wire was run on the tele
graph poles. The Bell Telephone and
the Western LJnion Telegraph com
panies work together smoothly.
The Catholic picnic to-day will no
doubt be hugely enjoyed. The train
leaves promptly at 7 and will return in
ample time for those' who" wish to at
tend the convention. The fare for the
round trip is only 50 cents.
There was an understanding at the
Second Ward meeting, which adjourned
without action night before last, that
there would be a meeting at the mayor's
office on Saturday night at 8 o'clock.
All the Democratic voters of the tvard
are requested ta attend.
The negotiations for the cars for the
Greenville excursion in the interest of
the Baptist Church and the Hornets'
Xest Kitlemen, have not yet been con
cluded, and it does look as if there will
be a hitch which can't be unhitched.
Even a splitting of the difference can't
he arranged.
Xext week will be the liveliest that
Charlotte has seen for a long while-.
An election on Monday and a hanging
on Friday. It will be pretty rough,
however, for Henry Home ana the de
feated candidates. But they all say
they can stand it.
The condition of Second street at; the"
passenger platforms of the Richmond
& Danville, the Charlotte, Columbia &
Augusta and the Atlantic, Tennessee
& Ohio jroads, is said to be in a very
filthy condition. The sanitary police
man says that it lies not in his power
to attend to it.
Don't forget the operetta at the resi
dence of Mrs. S. V. Young to-morrow
light. The admission is twenty-five
cents, but the entertainment is not to
le measured by the money standard.
Jf, and there can be no doubt about it,
the operetta is successful, at will be re
peated. ' '
Let every good Democrat turn out to
the convention to-nieht. and don't give
any excuse for the cry afterwards tht
.t was packed. Go and vote for your
lavonte and don't eret mad because oth
(ir people vote for theirs. Go, and if
yur man is nominated, don't crow, and
it he is defeated don't kiek. " :

A number of Aisingkiej speakers

between the members of the Best syn
dicate and the State for the final trans
fer of the Western North Carolina Rail?
road and its franchises;, was" sighed'
day before yesterday at 2 'clock by all
the parties thereto. Mr. Best will
therefore take control immediately.
They have been very reticejit as to what
policy the new management would pur

and employees, hut the employing of
Capt. Wm. Cain as inspecting engineer,
is .cqnstrued into an intijnation that
they will at least not go out of the State

Who will be Admitted.
Theexecutive committed who called
the -convention to-night desire It to
be understood that the5 meeting is
strictly! Democratic. Anjrkiuan who
owes aHegfance to tne Democratic par
ty, and who voted for Tilden and Vance
m 1876 will be admitted, and that will
be made a test question at jthe door of

reaped tis ?aaiorifcy gine that trmef;
and is known to have Democratic pre
dilections. While -the Democracy of
the city will be glad to have all men
support the man they ; select, they
reserve the right to say who that candU
date shall be. '
On tbe Railroads.
If ; the pfeoplrj aldng the line of the
Statesville Railroad woulji only drop
in and see the telephone, while they are
in . Charlotte, the contemplated tele
phone line to StafesVille would become
a fixed fact.
The freight business : is light, but
travel still holds out ureltv well, beinc
mostly from tha South.

A Painful Accident.
Mr. A. T. Moss, yesterday evenimz,
while driving.met With quite a..painful
accident. He drove a small &ay mare
which was quite restive apd while go
ing around the race -track at the fair
grounds, the mare fretted so that he
was compelled to stand up in the buggy
to hold her. A young lady who was
driving with him asked ft she could
help and while they were both holding
the reins the mare swerved, causing
them both to lose their balance and fall
out. The young lady fortunately es
caped with a few slight bruises, but
Mr. Moss's collar bone was. broken and
he received several slights contusions.
The breaking of a collar bd-ne is, how
ever, not at all dangerousi The mare
dashed off with the buggy and broke it
up pretty badly. ' ,

General Grants idea that the best
way to get rid of a bad law is to enforce
it rigorously is now being reduced to
practice in Louisville, Kentucky. The
Sabbatarians have been making trouble
for the conductors ot. certain amuse
ment halls and drinking 1 saloons that
were kept running on the hrst day or
the week by bringing the Sunday law
to bear upon them.. The aggrieved perr
sons demanded tfcatf thisJ&Wi if carried

length and breadth. Consequently all
the newspaper ornces in louisviue weie
visited by detectives soqn aner imu
night on Saturday, and the names of
editors, reporters, and all others in any
way at worfcr on the ;vavious journals,
were taken (fof presentment by the
Grand Jury for Violation of the law.
Organists in the different churches,
sextons and hired choir singers are to
be similarly reported for indictment;
and, as the law provides -that all per
sons receiving pav for services of any
kind on Sunday shall be punished, even
the ministers 'Wijjl have to be included.
