JUDKflOUS ADVERTISING.!
One o the- most important thing
to know in conducting busiftes is,
How, wSben and Where to advertise.
We have often heard it said that the
business men of Raleigh are not lib
eral advertisers, but in our opinion,
it would be hard to find the same
nutnberof business men that adver
tise more than those in Raleigh. A
great deal of it strikes us as' , useless,
and so 'inuch, thrown away, but we
not in the position always to
w waat is best. And then too no
one system will suit all
classes of
busines.
But wiere are some things that ev
ery ' we I regulated business must
have. Eor instance ;
Neatlv printed Letter or Note
Heads, Bill Heads, Envelopes, Cards,
with occasional Circulars, Posters,
Announcements, &c. "
First-class set of books for the .
Book-keeper. i . I
! An advertisement in the Traveler, '
one of the best printed papers in the

jWRnixuTos, D. C., Oct. 21. Long
before bilf-pa'st ten o'clock this morn

hearing pf the application for a writ
of error in the Chicago anarchist
canes, tlie conference room of the
U. S. Sqpremo Court in tho basement
of - tlie .capitol was uDcomfor

and 'uewppaper "men who were
suiting? to hear the proceedings.
Johp iiindolph Tucker, Gen. Pryor,
Gen. D. F. Butler, Capl. Black and
all of 'the other counsel for the condemned-prisoners
were present and
in whispered consultation, but at ha.lf
past ten; neither Justice Harlau nor
the recoYd, in tho cases had arrived.
FivG niihutos later, however, two men
came - in, carrying with. difiSculty a
large blue tin covered trunk xorded
with half inch rope which contained
thj voluminous record and under tho
---'iljt pf wliich the bearers visibly
.staggered. At twenty minytes to

onfei'chce room and after greeting.
TuhSel; aad directing that all of tho
i newspaper men be allowed to come
in and fake such places as 1est suited

lae tfoie hxed for executing the
seniefice of death is, I am .informed,
the 11th day of November. Under
.he jcSreunastaaces it is my duty to
facilitate the early decision of any
question in a case which the-Supreme
Court 'of the United States may prop
erly: take cognizance of. If I should
alloV a writ of error it ia quite cer
tain? that counsel would have, to
repeat before ihat court the
argaiijenl wiiicn they propose;
i.off to make before me.
(a ihh other hand, if I should refuse
theiWfit the defendants would be at
liberty to renew their application be
fore toy other Justice of the Su
preme Court, and, as human life and
liberti' ar involved.that Justice might
feel obliged, notwithstanding the pre
vious refusal of a writ, to look .into1
tho cse and determine for himself
whether u writ f 'error should De allowed-;
If he also refused the de
fendants could take the papers tto
some ofher member of the court and
so on antil each Justice had been ap
plied, to oir until some Justice granted
the writ. In this way it is manifest:
tha delays might occur that would
-ue vtry emuarrassing in view oi ine
thor time intervening between this
day and the date , fixed for carrying
into J effect the judgment of the
State court. Ab the case is
one I of very Serious character
in whatever aspect it may be regarded
I dec-m it proper to make the order
vihicii t now do that counsel present
this application to the court in open
nefcsion,to the end that early and final
action may be had upon the question
whether that court.has jurisdiction to
review the judgment in this case.
There is no reason why it may not ba
presented to the court at its session
today. Counsel may state that the
application ia made to the court pur
suant to my direction."

.Cmcoo, III. ; October 21. Then?
Fas a good doal ;of excitement in the
vicinity of the county jail nlxmt 7
o'clock last night when thirty police
men marched into the main entrance
of the primiaal; court building fol
lowed five minutes later by a detach
ment of eighty more. ' It was not un
til nearly 11 o'clock that the secret
underlying these strange moments of
the police came out and then it was
learned that nearly two thirds of the
oiAire force was being held in reserve
at the principal' stations. The police
learned, yesterday through ibe secret
service of tha department that troub
le was liable ta eome out of a -mass
meeting at Battery p, and that if
there was a collision-between the reds
;tuJ the policfj-'tbe former might, at-
oinnt an ast.irUt on- luo im. i.L'fre
was notliiu" tangible in tUo story, for ;
Jiere was no regular plan. i
So far as the; secret service officers '
were able to ascertain there was only
sort of tacit understanding among j
the disciples of the condemned seven,

When the news was. communicated lo ;
Chief Ebersold he notified the Mayor,
who in turn notified SheritT -Matson,
iiiid a council pf war, was held in the'
Mayor's ofiicajyesterday afternoDn. It i
was decided that it. would be good j
policy to taktf eyi-ry precaution loo- j
tssary to mjet any emergency th.it i
might arise.
The crowd' at Battery D was a rest
less cue. This was apparent to any
observer. Although lii'ty per cent of
the crowd coaid noi: understand Eng
Hyh it was a noticeable fact that the
English speeches were more loudly
applauded thin tho; German. There
was a heavy detail of police present,
which was constantly augmented as
the night wore on. ; The officers were
massed against the west wall in a long
platoon, with Capt.- Buckley, Lieut.
Laughlin and Sergeant Gibbons at
their head. Chief of Police Ebersold
was also present in citizens' dress.
He mingled with the Anarchists and
was not seen 'with his subordinates.
The force o detectives was also but
prisiDgly large. While the men were
not willing to makd public -the nature
of their orders it was apparent that
each had been detailed to watch the
anarchists very closely. 'Sensational,
"type ws out,; but its real nature can
only be: conjectured- As ; a further
proof that the police' were yesterday
in possession of some ominous, in
formation it may be stated that the
guard about the county jail last
night was doubled at midnight. Four
big officers stood at the Illinoisjstreet
corner of the globm bastile, while,
grouped ! in the court and along
the Dearborn and Michigan street
fronts, were at least a dozen more
guards.1 Several detectives were sta
tioned in various-parts of the build
ing and the pedestrian who stopped
to loiter in the deep shadows cast by
the grim walls was quickly overhauled
and scanned.-' '
! Waterway Convention.
Memphis, Teno., jOctober 21. The
Western Waterways Convention as-1
bombled this morning at 9.30 and was
called ltd order by Judge Clapp,
after whjch x-Governor E. O.
Stanard, of Missouri, permanent
chairman,' wis iuMtalled and made an
able speecli. Pending the retirement
of the committee on resolutions, the
convention was entertained by
Bpeechos from Judge R. S- Taylor, of
Indiana, a member of the river com
mission; ijudge Prendergast, of Chi
cago; Hon. E C. Hooker,. of Missis
Bippi.; fion. Jno. Eaker, of Illinois,
and Col. W. A Perry, of Mississippi.
The last named gentleman made the
speech" of the day and occupied two
hours mT its delivery, during which
the attention of the convention never
flagged. -It Was a; powerful presenta
tion of the merits of the river and
harbor bills, tnd the Bpeaker urged
the convention to stand by that
method of . legislation at all
hazards, and not to consent to disas
sociate the i Mississippi riv.er and
other great streams from smaller
channels of commerce. He insisted
that an attempt to make a separate
measure of the Mississippi river im
provements would result in a dismal
failure.' ' His remarks seemed to echo
tho sentiments of the convention and
will doubtless be reflected in report
of the committee on resolutions, of
which ho is a member.

and all mounted upon, gay horse3
were the special escort of the Presi

The President and his wife were
3eated in a handsome carriage drawn
by four beautiful blacks; the re

before them. The train moved off to
a point opposite and the party left,
exhibiting the greatest delight' and
pleasure at the scenery - and the cor

hardy mountaineers. It was a gala

This morning's run of the President's
special train between sunrise and
late breakfast took in ome of the
Great Smoky spurs of the Alle
ghany's . line lying, for fifty
miles or more beside the French
Broad River. Not all the- tourists
were up, and the lagards missed the
panorama, whose vanea cparms are
nowhere surpassed. At Hot Springs
Senators Ransom and Vance and Con
gressman Henderson boarded the
train and accompanied the i President
to Asheville. About eight o'clock the
watches of the party which were 'set
lack three weeks ago at Pittsburg,
were advanced from central to eastern

attention to points of Interest, a

holders representing over one niil

were in circulation relating to the
condition of the property and he
thought it advisable that bond hold
ers should make an examination to
satisfy themselves as to facts. It
was suggested that a committee of
investigation should be appointed as
the best way to secure information, i
Attention was called to the fact that j
an informal meeting of Groveatien &

satisfactory and Chairman Hollins j
appointed the following committee I

On yesterday a largo committee
composed of delegates from the coun
ties of Carteret, Craven, Hyde, Jones, ,
Lenoir, Pamlico and Wayne, called
upon Gov. Scales in the executive i
office. The commit tee came in def er
enca to the wishes of many citizens !
of the above counties to lay before I
tho Governor a proposition to con
nect the Atlantic North Carolina ,
railroad with the Cape Fear & Yadkin
Valley road and lease tho A. & N. C. i
to the C F. & Y. V. Hon. F. M. Sim- ,
mons for the delegation, presented the '
matter to the Governor. The confer-!
euce did not result in any official ac
tion. The object of the committee
was to secure the building of a rail
road from Goldsboro, the western ter- '
minus of the A & N- (.'., to Sanford,
by which, the desired connection ;
would be made. To do this it was '
proposed to issue further mortgage
bonds on the Atlantic &. N. C. to
the amount of at least 8100,000 as
a nucleus with which to commence
building the road. It was thought
that this could be easily dohe, as the
total debt of the road is now $325,
000 and its prime cost was 1,800.000.
The Governor gave no official opinion"
as to the ma ter, but? ho rultier
favored tho connecti"ii and a lease of
the A. & N. C. to the C. F. & Y. V.
for a term of years, to end with the
expiration of the lease of the North
Carolina rOad to the Richmond &
Danville railroad company. The con
ference then ended for the time, but
it will probably be resumed today.
The committee telegraphed . tho au
thorities of the C. F. ic Y. V. road,
requesting them to toiuo to this city
today ana join the conference, and it
is probable they will attend.

tive audience. It is evident that the
company pay more attention to the t
musical part of tho entertainment
than to any other and in this they
excel. Their presentations of fine
inus-ical selection?, both vocal and in
strumental, are unexceptionably good
and the incidents of the comedy of
' 3 Corners" seem intended to serve
for humorous interruptions and to
afford a spicy variety in the perform
ance. It is a nicely conceived plan
for intermingling laughable features
with a fine musical concert. The
company will close the engagement
lOnight which will be the last chance
for seeing Miss-Sterlinsr and her su-
peib comrany this season.
