10CAL BRIEFS.
GLENN TO NEW YORK
Items of Interest in and Around
the City.
There are intimations of the approach
of autum in the cooler temperature of
these August nights and in the crisp
air of the early mornings. The years
roll on.
Our good triend Elder Jacob F. Hill,
of Saulston, laid on our table today a
twin squash of unusual growth in size
and on the Siamese twins order. It is
quite a curiosity.
Mrs. J. H. Hollowell, of Denver,
Colo., who hasibeen visiting relatives
in Guilford county, arrived in Golds
boro Wednesday evening and will
spend a few days visiting relatives
here.
Miss May Cords, ot Canada, wno is
engaged with the Agricultural Depart
ment at Raleigh, and has been assist
ing in the Fanners' Institutes in this
section with Mrs. W. R. Hollo well, re
turned to Raleigh yesterday, after
spending several days here, the guest
of Miss Tda Tomlinson.
Goldsboro superb military eonting
ent, than which there are no finer com
panies in the National State Guard, got
home at an early- hour this morning
from the North Carolina celebration
this week' at Jamestown, where they
reflected credit not only on the Old
North State, but also on the Best Town!
in the State.
The State Farmers' Alliance, at their
annual meeting in Hillsboro, this week
unanimously elected Capt. J. E. Peter
son, ot this city, as their president fi r
the ensuing year. They could not have
selected one who is more competent to
conduct the executive duties ot the of
fice nor one more conversant with the
needs of thefarmers and their own
shortcomings, for he is, himself, one
of the best farmers in the State.
The location for the County High
School that is to be assigned to the
northern end of the county is now a
vital and ail-absorbing topic in all that
section, and asjthe matter will, in all
probability, be decided at next Mon
day's special meeting of the Board of
Education, it is more than likely that
this meeting willjjj be largely attended
by representative citizens from Eure
ka, Fremont and Pikeville, which are
the especial districts that are the livli
est contestants for the school.
Mrs. W. R. Hollowell, who has been
doing such splendid work in the
woman's department of the recent
series of Farmers' Institutes through
out the State, is at home again, having
only one more appointment to fill, the
Institute at Smithfield on the 24th of
this month. The press of the State
have been most generous in their com
mendation of Mrs. Hollowell's $vork
wherever she has been, but not more
so than is she herself in giving her
time to this going about going good.
The fact that Goldsboro now enjoys
hree great railway competing lines
north should be an additional lactor in
the occomplisbment ot "Greater Golds
boro". Besides the Atlantic Coast
Line and the Southern, a new through
daily schedule has been established
over the Norfolk fc Southern to Norfolk
and on to turrher points north, and
this fact " coupled with the active and
extensive development recently in
augurated by this road throughout all
eastern North Carolina to the sea,
should not fail to redound to the widen
ing and increasing of the wholesale
trade and factory outputs of the Best
Town in the State.
A burly negro, looking more like
some wild animal than human, was
brought to this city last night, by two
special constables from the Pinkney
section and lodged in jail on the ser
ious charge of burglary in two cases
one the home of Mr. Claude Hinnant
and the other that ol Mr. Henry Tal
ton. He was given hot pursuit and
finally, after a neighborhood chase all
day, he was captured in the woods late
yesterdayjjevening and hurried off to
jail here to obviate a brewing 'lynch
ing, for in one of the homes he had at
tempted another crime. He gives his
name as Jonas Fillmore. He will be
tried at the term of court which begins
here next Monday, and his neck will
surely go in the noose.
The manager of the Western Union
in this city reques us to say that until
the strike situation is relieved all dis
patching business at his office will be
received only upon condition of "in
definite delay," as the wires are not
only without operators at most points
-
tut are so tampered witn wnen wok
ing by strikers that business cannot be
handled with any sort of guarantee of
safe transit. As an evidence of how
thoroughly the Western Union's great
business is paralized the carrier boys
of this city, two in number, who are
paid a percentage on the messages they
deliver, which constitutes their' sala
; ries, yesterday made 6 cents in the ag
gregate for their day's service, one
made 2 cents and the other 4 cents.

Governor Suddenly Leaves A Remarkable Feature of the
for Scene of Enquiry.
It Is Presumed That Some New Develop
ment In tHe Railway Rate Case '
Now Being Heard there De
mands His Presence.
(By Special Wire to the Argus.)
Raleigh, Aug. 17. Without any pre
monition so tar as the public is advised
Governor Glenn, who only returned
late last night from Jamestown, took
an early train this morning tor New
York, and as the need of his presence
there in the pending railway rate in
vestigation before special master
Montgomery was not opined by the
public or by those conversant with the
particular situation, his sudden de
parture for the scene is cause for
considerable conjecture as to whether
there have been any "newly
discovered evidence", as the lawyers
say, or unloreseen developments, or
apprehended "prestos", that demand
his supervising presence or forensic
prowess.
However this may be, the develop-
ment of the proceedings will bring out
as the case goes on.

reunion as guests of Gen. William J.
Palmer, who was the commanding offi

StuttGart, Aug. 17. The Socialistic
notables of the world are gathering
here in large number to attend the In
ternational Socialist Congress, which is
to hold its sessions during the next
eight days. A remarkable leature of
the gathering is the large number of
women delegates. So numerous are
the women, in fact, that they have con
cluded to hold a separate conference.
This will be the first international So
cialist congress ever held by women.
Among the questions to be discussed
by the general conference are the emi
gration of workingmen, militarism and
war.
The subjects to which the women
will give especial attention include the
establishment ot regular communica
tions between the organized women
comrades of the various countries and
the question of woman suffrage. The
latter will be moved strongly by the
delegates from the United States.
Among the delegates who have ar
rived in the city are representatives of
the Socialistic organizations of Eng
land, the United States, France, Ger
many, Belgium, Denmark and Fin
land.
