"to morrow one week is the great 20th. - v. v t-Tbere was .an unwonted silence -iv iuo duccii jresiiciuiiy, caused by the cessation of the Work of pound ing macadam. tSTThe pilgrims to the seashore got back home yesterday morning. They had a fine time, and got badly sun burned. You can spot them in a crowd by their red faces. tSPThe several committees who have in hand the arrangements for the 20th, celebration, held another meeting last night, at which the preparations were furthered and put in better shape. tT Yesterday evening ColonelJohn ston, Mayor De Wolfe and two lawyers were going over the contested grounds with their chains again. "What conclu sion they reached, if any, we could not learn. OPThe water main was yesterday tapped in front of the stores of Messrs. Alexander & Harris and Burgess Nich ols. The work of running pipes from the main through the houses is now about fairly started. H3FTtie storm of wind and rain came up very suddenly yesterday evening and numbers of our usually staid and dignified citizens h d to resort to hu miliating, but wi. .'. lively foot races after their scurrj i-.i hats. IW Rev. J. T. Bagwell, pastor of Tryon Street Methodist church, left last evening for Nashville, Tennessee, to at tend the General Conference, now in session at that place, and will be absent about two weeks. That Charlotte is to be pretty well covered with bunting on the 20th may be imagined when it is stated that McSmith had sold eight hundred flags up to yesterday evening and telegraph ed for five hundred more from the deal ers. McSmith's ad. is in the Observer. I" The young men of the city who expect to take a hand in the 20th of May ball, are reminded that Mr. M. P. Pegram has the tickets ready and that they should call on him at once and se cure as many as they may want. One thing is certain no one will be admit ted without a ticket The Library Association meet ings have been suspended for several weeks, but to-night they will be resum ed. A meeting of the association will be held at the rooms at 8 o'clock this evening and every member should be present, as there will be something of interest to talk about. Yesterdav Capt. C. F. Harrison, chief of the city fire department, ap pointed the following sub-officers for the ensuing year: Harper J. Elam, first assistant chief; J. M. Kendrick, second assistant chief ; R. F. Huney cutt, secretary, and P. S. McLauehlin, treasurer. SEiF The ladies who have undertaken the management of the 20th of May monumental bazaar, were to have held a meeting yesterday afternoon, but the storm prevented it. We .are requested to state that the meeting is to be held this morning at 9 in the rooms of the Young Men's Christian association, and all the ladies of the city are requested to attend. HSITThe North-bound mail and ex press which left the R. & D. depot, in this place, last Tuesday evening met with an accident when near Harris burg, which delayed it considerably. One of the wheels under the front truck of the tender flew all to pieces but did not cause the cars to leave the track. A slight jar was the only effect of the accident felt. ElTBennie Barnes, of the United States, is in the city. He has recently sold the celebrated race, horse Sprague, and has bought two three-year-olds, which he had shipped from New York to Baltimore last week, where they are in the hands of a trainer. They will be kept on the Pimlico track, in Balti more, until the spring races open. 5" Mr. Eccles' mail is made up these days mostly of letters asking him to reserve rooms in the Central for the writers, on celebration day. They offer all sorts of prices for rooms, but Mr. Eccles turns a deaf ear to their requests. Not a single room has been engaged, nor will it be and there is no use for anybody to try to have one engaged. If they are afraid of being crowded out the best plan for them is to come along a few days in advance of the celebra tion. The Twentieth is Coming. The outlook for a tremendous time in Charlotte on the 20th is still bright ening, It is to be a three days' celebra tion, beginning on the 18tb,but the 20th if to be celebration day proper. The troops and visiting fire companies will begin to arrive in the city on the 18th and arrangements for their entertain ment are all complete. On the 18th and 19th there will be parades, speaking, banquets, etc. The stand from which Senator Bayard will speak will be erected on the grounds of the Carolina Military Institute. The Senator and his escort of Congressmen will arrive in the city on the evening of the 19th. Senator Vance will spend a few days in Charlotte after the celebration is over, and the citizens are thinking up some plan by which to induce him to give us his lecture on the humors of politics. We all want to hear it, and when once we get the Senator in the city, it will be a hard matter for him to get away without giving us his lecture. The invitation committee have re ceived answers from ten fire companies, all of which accept, and are coming prepared to enter the fireman's contest. The companies that have accepted the invitations sent them are, two from Columbia; one from Danville; one from Raleigb; one from Statesville; one from Spartanburg; one from Greenville; one from Cheater; one from Augusta and one f rom Newberne. Besponses have not yet been received from all the invitations, and it is prob able that several other companies will yet accept. ! li t- ' .

He was given until the next meeting of the board, which will be in two weeks, to fix up things, and failiDg to do this, his lease will be forfeited. The Observer's Enlargement. This morning's Observer issues from the press as the largest daily paper that has ever been published in the Old North State. An addition of one inch and a quarter to each of its twenty eight columns secures for it a great amount of extra space and this the pro prietor will endeavor to fill to the ad vantage of the reading public. The en largement of course denotes prosperity. Within the past few months The Ob server's subscription list has been added to very largely, while the adver tising patronage has increased to such a degree as to necessitate an enlarge ment. The Observer is just as happy as a big sunflower, in the larger suit which it has just donned and will try to make its readers correspondingiy happy. A Foolish Rumor Squelched. For the past two days there has been a little bit of interest excited in the city over the report that a colored man had been discovered in the suburbs of Charlotte bedridden with a case of small-pox, It was a very foolish report and would not now be mentioned in The Observer but for the fear that it might become circulated abroad and raise a needless alarm. We have taken particular pains to get at the bottom of the report, and after a diligent inquiry we find the truth of the matter to be this: Amos Horn, a colored laborer of the city, who lives out in the western suburbs, was taken sick with measles about the first of the week and a couple of colored women who lived next door to him started around town to inform their dusky sisters that the man Horn was down with small-pox. Of course such a report as this very quickly spread. The people of Charlotte know well enough that there is not the remotest symptom of small-pox in the city, all having become acquainted with Ihe origin of the report by this time, but to set the matter entirely at rest and to show the absurdity of the rumor, ire append the following ' communication from Dr. Wilder, the superintendent of public health: J ! I H u ' OJncE Stjpt. Board of Heaith, v i ; . , Mecklenburg. Countt. , ' Whereas reports have been circulated tht small-pox has made its appearance in Charlotte, this is to certify that ttiere is sot a single word oC truth in the re port. - - ""; " ' - H.M. Wilder, M.Dh -"- gupt. Board of Health. 1 Charlotte, N.O., May 11, 1882. The Bicycle Riders. Last Tuesday evening the Charlotte bicycle club held a -meeting and decided to extend an invitation to apt Shilla ber, the great New England bicyclist, who is president of the Boston bicycle clubhand who is in Newborn, at pres ent, to be with us on the 20th. They also sent , invitations to bicyclists all through the State and everywhere else. Our Charlotte elub will exert itself to do the handsome thing by all of its visitors and will give them a good time, though they will not be promised "sand papered" roads to ride Over. North Carolina Whipped. The news that came in last night from Hamburg, giving the result of the cocking main fought at that place yes terday between North Carolina and Georgia, did not create any enthusiasm among those in this city who were in terested in it Seven fights were had and of those Georgia won five and North Carolina two. Sid Holt won all the hack fights. On the opening day of the fight, Wednesday, 23 were matched and there was only one fight, which was won by Holt. The main will last three more days. Captured After Two Years of Liberty. Yesterday evening about three o'clock officer Irwin, of the police force espied a negro on the streets for whom there has been a look-out kept during the past twenty-four months. He was one of a party that escaped from the Asheville and Spartanburg railroad two years ago, all of whom had been captured except this one. Mil as Tor rence is his name, and this morning he is taking a ride back to the railroad works. He was one of Mr. Mc Aden's hands, and at the time he escaped, two years ago, was working out a sentence of six years and had only staid to see four months of it go by. After his long vacation he will no doubt return to his work greatly refreshed and in good trim to resume his arduous labor. Charlotte Hotel Arrivals.

Concord's Guests. The medical convention of North Carolina, which has been in session in Concord since last Tuesday, adjourned yesterday evening. The number of doctors attending the convention is said to have been ninety-two. The daily sessions of the convention were presided over by Dr. Wood, of WiN mington. Several addresses were de livered Wednesday, amonsc them being one by Dr. Anderson, of Albemarle, and one by Dr. Gaither, of Mecklen burg. The affairs of the association were shown to be in a most prosperous condition. Dr. Knox, of Wake county, was the annual orator, and the subject of his address was 'Vaccination,'' All of the Charlotte doctors re mained over in Concord last night to enjoy the festivities prepared for them by the young people. Many of them shook their feet in the light fantastic at the Morris House, while others were enjoying themselves in a more quiet manner at several private entertain ments throughout the town.
