A Novel Way.
The members of the Second Baptist
Church, Rev. J. P. King pastor, have in
augurated rather a novel way of raising
fu ds for their ( h arch, which has resulted
successfully. The plan wis to distribute
among the congregation a number of
little earthen jugs with a space left open
near the top for the reception of contri
butions. These jags were carried around
and aid solicited. Last night a "jag
breaking',' was had at the Charch and
$75.24 was found to have been raised.

The" Charlotte Democrat challenges
our statement in reference to the report
that the famous outlaw chief. Henry
Berry Lowery. i3 now alive and asserts
that "the evidence is that Lowery was
killed at his home in Robeson county."
On the coutrary,tthere is simply no evi
dence attached to the case at all sim
ply rumors brought in by the Scuffle
tonians themselves to the effect that
Lowery was killed by tha accidental dis
charge of his own gun. There has never
yet been "evidence"' enough as to his
death to hang a dog by a jury composed
entirely of cats. .
Another IUiChae.
The Charlotte Democrat tells us that
the Richmond & Danville R. R. Co. have
bought a controlling interest in the
Chester & Lenoir Narrow Gauge R.
R, 'wnich, by the way, now connects
with the Carolina Central at Lincoln
ton. A mandamus and an injunction to
prevent the combination from getting en
tire control of the work has been issued
by Judge Mackay, at the suit of indig
nant stockholders, who censure the
President and Vice-President of the C. &
L. N. G. R. R. very severely for the ac
tion they have taken in the premises .
By the way, how is it that our usually
well-informed neighbor, the Democrat,
calls this road the "Cheraw & Chester?"
The Right Man.
JdmesrSpann, colored, who was detail
ed as a Special Deputy with the proper
papers to convey Simon Gregg, colored,
an alleged escaped convict from the South
Carolina penitentiary back to Columbia
a few days ago returned to this city this
morning, having delivered his charge
over to the Superintendent of the peni
tentiary at the above. named place upon
his arrival there yesterday morning.
Gregg, it will be remembered, had a pre
liminary examination -before Justice Mc
Quigg, of this city, on Thursday last, in
which hs stoutly denied that he wa, or
ever hadbeen, a convict. But his captor
Spann, now says that he "fessed up"
when he arrived at Columbia and ac
knowledged the fact that he was the
right man, although he thought he was
la the wrong place.
Kooli and 'Ladder.
'j he anniversary of that veteran organ
ization, the Wilmington Hook and Lad
der Company No. 1, wa3 celebrated last
evening at the truck house. There was
no parade during the day, but at - night
the members of the Company and tLeir
invited guests' assmbled in. force at the
truck house, where a bountiful collation
had been spread. The hall was tastefully
decorated by the fair hands of lady
friends, and everything was auspicious
of a pleasant evening. After some
little time spent in pleasant chat and
converse by those whojwere'there assemb
led, Mr. Martin S. Wiliardt .the Chair
man of the Committee of Arrangements
called the assemblage to order and in a
very pleasant and appi-Gpriate little
speech invited those present to seats at
the tempting repast which was displayed
upon the board. This call wa3 respond-'
ed to with the ready promptness which
characterizes the boy3 of the Hook and !
Ladder on all urgent occasions and for
awhile after there was bat little
said while a great deal was
accomplished. The repast was followed
by copious supplies of ice water, prepar
ed in various ways to suit 'the palate3 of
all, and then the whilom silent tongue3
were lotsed and toasts were offered and
responses made and wit and repartee
passed rapidly around the social board
untilj the time for separation rolled
around. It wa3 an exceedingly pleasant
occasion to all who were present and has
been the leading topic of conversation
among them to-day.

M a gi urate's Court. I
Larry Fisher was arraigned before a
Justice of the Peace this morning upon
a warrant sworn out by his wife, Landis
Fisher, npon the charge of willful aban
donment. The defendant submitted the,
caseand was released upon payment of fine
and costs. ; The same defendant was also
arraigned upon a psace warrant by the
same plaintiff in the foregoing case, but
the parties became reconciled and the"
la3t named charge was withdrawn by tho
prosecutor and defendant discharged. 4 '
Asta til t VF i h a Deadly YT ap-
The case of Geo. W. W. Davis, color
ed, who a few days since was arraigned
and tried before Justice' McQdigg upon
the charge of an assault with a deadly
weapon upon J osh - Rush, i colored, in
which it was thought and alleged, by the
prosecution that the victim of Davis as
sault had suffered a fracture of the skull,
was brought up for trial before the same
Justice again to-day. The evidence on
this occasion did not, however, justify
the presuuptien that Ras3 was seriously
or fatally injured, it appearing upon the
trial that the city physician had exam
ined the wounded man and pronounced
his condition favorable for recovery. The
defendant was thereupon bound over in
the sum of $100 for his appearance at the
next term of the Criminal Court.

fiupreme L,ode Knights of Honor
The Supreme Lodge of the Ksights of
Honor of the United States . held , their
8th annual session at Minneapolis Min
nesota, on the 1 0th inst. For the infor
mation of the members of the order in
this city, we make the following extracts
from the report of the supreme officers.
The report of the Snpreme Dictator was
thorough and complete, In it he stated
the following;
"DuriDg the year ending April 30,
1881, there had been thirteen assess
ments on each member. There were six
hundred and seventy-eight orders drawn
on the widows' and orphans' benefit fund,
amounting to $1,351,000, and one hun
dred and tilty orders on the general fund,
amounting to 38,074.24. December 26,
1880, assessment No. 78 was made, and
114,973 received, showing a member
ship of 102,000. From that time to
April 26, 1881, the gain has been about
2,500 new members per month, and the
total membership today is 117,000."
From the report of tho Supreme Re
porter, J. C. Plumer, welearn the follow
ing concerning the financial condition of
the order for the year:
"General fund, cash on hand Maydst,
1880, 14,401.27 ; cash received during
the year, 50,111.96 ; total received and

'Widows and orphans benefit fund,
total cash on hand and received, $1,354,
389.14, with disbursements of 1,351,000,
leaving a balance in the treasury May 1,

penses for all matters outside of benefits
were $28,932. The total number of
working lodges May 1, 1881, was 2,302,
and the net gain of membership during
the year was 22,644. Total membership

Adjutant-General Jones has issued a
general order relative to the new unifirm
which it is determined to adopt for the
State troops.-" The following is prescrib
ed for all foot officers :
: Sack coat of dark blue cloth with
rolling collar, to have five North Caro
lina State bsttoiH. large in front, and
two small buttoud oa each sleeve. To
b3 cut square in fro at, and to fall well
over hip. Troasera of sky, blue cloth,
cut to fall well over foot, . To have at
outer searaaold : cord. Cap of dark
blue cloth with crossed Titles in gold
embroidered in front. Shoulder straps
of dark blue cloth with the following in
signia of rank: Captain, two bars; fiist
lieutenants, one bar; second .lieutenants,
plain..
The nniform for enlisted men will le
as follows:
Blouse of cadet gray cloth, lined
throughout, cut square in front, and to
come well over hip. To have rolling
collar, Ive North Carolina State buttons,
large in front and two small buttons on
each sleeve. Trousers of sky blue cloth,
cut to fall well over foot, and to have a
welt at outer seam for privates, a black
stripe one-half an inch wide for corpor
als, and one inch wide for sergeants.
Cap of dark blue cloth, with enamel
strap To have in front crossed rifles
with above company letter, and below
regimental number; all in metal.
Gen. Jones says that companies will
not bo required to procure this uniform
at once, but are urged to adopt it as
soon as practicable. The uniform can
be obtained at a cost of $8.62. Com
panies desiring, to provide themselves
with it, will, upon application, be furn
ished with all necesfary information in
detail.
me oeauty or the thing lies not eo
mnch in the appearance the new uniform
will make upon the streets, but in the
fhet of its cheapness. One very impor
tant difficulty in the way of full ranks
in our volunteer, companies heretofore,
previous to the war as well as since its
close, has been the cost of the uniform,
which so many of our young men who
are willing to enlist in some company
have been utterly unable to afford. If
the new uniform will look as well, wear as
well and can be purchased at less than half
the cost of the old, then the active mem
bership of every company should be rap
idly increased.
