1 DURHAM RECORDER. WEDNESDAY. February 4,1891. A frame building for the shuttle factory will be erected near the building now occupied by the company. , , Ilia Honor, Mayor Angier, performed the marriage cere mony for Mr. Euffln J. Eycroff and Mrs. Heche Oafcley, both of Jlraaville county, last Thursday, The dairy business in Dur ham is looking up. Mr. W. J. Wyatt and Mr. R. L. Gattis have nice new wagons, and they soli good milk without water in it. - Durham people have been sporting hyacinths and violets grown in the open air. Away with the ground hog idea. Flow ers do not bloom out .; doors in Cold weather. Anybody who thinks that Durham is nothing but a tobac co town, should lenow that a Durham florist ships rose buds to northern markets. There is diversified industry, here. A crazy high tea was one of the social events in this city last week. The guests did their best to appear crazy to the ex tent of appearing in costumes that would discount a crazy quilt. ',' Durham home talent added new luster to its fame last Thursday night. It is just out of the question to imagine a liner musical entertainment than the musical artists of this city can give. Durham talent acknowledges no superior. A colored child was burned to death in this city last Thurs day. It was the same old story of children being left in the house while the mother was away from home. This in the second fatal accident of the kind in Durham this year. , A protracted meeting is in progress in Trinity Methodist church this week. The con gregations are large and at tentive, and the services inter esting, but there has been vei little concern manifested on the part of the unconverted. The grand jury of Granville county failed to find a true bill against Ex-sherill Rogers and Mrs. Parker, who were before Judge Hoy kin at the recent term of Durham court on a writ of habeas corpus. It will be re membered that they were charg ed with Doisoninz the husband of Mr. Parker and a negro who was in the employment of rar ker. The county of Chatham has been well represented on the Durham tobacco market lately. Last week, the reporter noticed, among others, the following: W. F. Stroud, John W. Riggs bee. J. M. Rtezsbee. J. H. Wil. liams, P. M. Pearson, Wiley Goodwin, John Hancock, A. D. Cole, Barbee Merritt, it. II. Beavers. Capt. J. F. Freeland tells a rood story on himself. One night during the war, three or four of his men deserted to the enemy. Pretty aoon an Union picket, called: "Hello! is Capt Freeland over there! Receiving an affirmative re sponse, the picket continued "Tell him to come over and take command of his company." The caiitatn told the story to aa official member of one of the city churches last Saturday night, and made a local appli cation that any city reader can caicu on 10 wiinout a mat. Mr. W. II. Snow, of Modern Tobacco Ham fame, was in the citr last Thursday on bis way to Oxford, and as his custom is, called at The Recorder office and fiuent an hour in conversa tion with the editor, lie is a very entertaining talker, and he has a fund of information UDon which he draws coutin ually. lie believes that ho has a rood thinsr in his prowse and appliances for curing tobacco, ami'he can convince almost any body who will listen to what he Bays. The business of his com pany has J wn wonderfully, with its new facilities for sup plying me demand, it wit doubtless goon increasing with out limit. The stockholders of the Commonwealth Cotton Manu facturinz Company met Mon day night and perfected plans that insure the mill being equipped and in operation I tho first of AusniRt. Mr. R. II Wright proposed to take stock to the amount of f 23.KK), and put in the brick building now used as a shuttle and bobbin factory, and also to buy the lot previously purchased by the company for a factory site. Roth offers were accepted, and it was deckled to proceed witn as lit tie delay as possible to equip the factory and begin manufac turing.

Who does not, at some time or other, have occasion to pat ronize tho job printer? Scarcely anybody. Printer's ink is al most as much a necessity to man as air and water. In that view of case, it is important for everybody to know where to find headquarters when he needs to call on the" artist of the art preservative of arts. The Re corder's advertising column'' contain tho desired information. Mr. D. W. Whitaker keeps a good print shop, does nice work at fair prices; and like the news paper man, wants to please everybody; but unlike him, usu ally succeeds where the editor fails. Keep Whitaker's ad. in your mind, and when you want printing done, be sure to pin your faith to the man who ad vertises in the newspapers. Durham Lead the Stale. The internal revenue books prove what Durham has claimed time and ogam, viz: that more tobacco is manufactured here than in any other town in North Carolina. This is not boasting. t is true as gospel: and the books prove it. Durham led tho state in 1890, and uuless all signs fail, will lead in 1891. The town that keeps up with: Durham lias to hustle. , j Ov-i-fi.wi.ir witn TuiMct-u. I Durham tobacco warehouses are full and running over. Far mers from near and far have come to the best market in the state to sell their crops. They e here from three or four counties in Virginia and from nearly every county in the fa- mo is go den belt of North Caro- ma. The tuahtr of the leaf on the market is good. Prices have declined somewhat on ac count of the great amount to le sold; but they are holding up as high as anywhere else. Far mers cannot firld a bitter mar ket than Durham; and the way they crowd here in season at tests their confidence in the willingness of our buyers to pay them all that their tobacco will bring on any warehouse floor. A market that consumes 14.000.- 000 pounds in its home f actor 'as can pay b'gher average prices than con eting markets, though in the nature of things it can-not-escape the effects of the law of supply and demand. Durham istue best market for the farmers. convention of the Young Men's Christian Association in, this city nent mouth. Millions in It. . The Fortifier, which, is not a military engineer, as might be supposed, but a newspaper published at Old Fort, on the slope of the Blue Ridge in Mc Dowell county, where the West em North Carolina Railroad wind its way around the moun tains to' Swannanoa tunnel, is authority for the statement that a Durham gentlemen who is already worth his millions, has struck it ricii in a marble bed of fabulous v extent and value. Here is what the Fortifier savs aoout it: "The experts have repoitodte tne JN. u. .Bessemer company (Hon. J. S. Carr, of Durham, C, president, and Captain O. H. Blocker, of Old Fort, gen eral manager,) that their com pany owns over . four hundred millions cubic feet of the very nnest marble to be found m the United . States. The Greater part is a variegated blue and motley white color, very rare and very beautiful. This mar ble is valued at one ' dollar per cubic foot in the ouarrv as it now is; It will stand that price and work a profit. Experieuced stone cutters are loud in its praise, and say tha t generations to come have a field of wealth in this grand supply." " TOil ACCOTOP J CS. Smoking is to common in Jiinaii that not only all th ruun but most ladies indulge in the weed, tlio girls beginning when they are ten year I.

This is a true bill. Let us all work to get a law passed in North Caro lina that will remedy this "emus evil. . Weather !;( nit It-atiniia. The Recorder, which has it tie or no faith in weather signs, has some respect for the opinions of others. It docs not believe in the ground hog gign but it is compeL'cd to admit tl at if the sign is worth a fig, there will ie a great deal of rough weather before the spring time comes. A more beautiful and olmy February day than the proverbial ground hog day was could not be wished for: and The Recorder has a poor opin ion or the man w no invented tne theory that such a lovely day is the precursor of ice and snow, and north-easter and other dis agreeable thing contained in the weather category. The goose bone also, is made to fore tell rough weather: but who cares for signs when the weath er comes right? Give us fine weaihor and let tho signs go up Salt river or to sonio other for eign country. Jtll! File at Lexington. Tho editor of The Recorder had the pleasure of attending a revival meeting! conducted by Mr. Fife, the evangelist, at Lex- uirton last week. It must not be supposed that the editor went to Lexington to near nt.nao, Though an ardent admirer of Sam J ones, he was not so favor oblv disposed toward the drum mer evaugeiis e nvany a hundred miles to hear him. B lumens took htm to Lexington and other considerations took him to the mooting. 1 he result was that he was glad indeed that circumstances brought him and Fife together on that oc casion. He found Lexington deeply stirred on the subject of religion, lie saw sinners uy cores manifesting concern about their welfare, and many converts harpy in the conscious ncss of having found pardon and wacoin believing. 1IM meet lug Friday night was inspiring and tho results glorious. The nooplo were Prayerful and Fife was powerful. It is not to be wondered at then that tho sp'rit ilwl and wrought won drously. The like had not been seen in Lexington in many years. . . Mr. Fife will attend the state Durham' Outlook, WJalagtoaSUr. The other chief tobacco centre in 2vorth Carolina is, of course, Durham. That town of 8,000 inhabitants we believe that was the census fiirurintr for June. 1820 has done an im mense business for many years, ana last year its figures reach' ed the sura of SS3.ft29.05. but less than that of Winston, its rival. This was a gain of $37, 151.91 over the preceding year. tne vuuuun i or iumu.m is really one of hope and promise. and there is every indication that its progress in the closinz aecaae or. tne nineteenth cen tury will be all that its people . couiu weu expect.
