Dr. B. J?. Dixon, Oxford, N. C, who will see them properly applied. Third Ward Democrats. The Third Ward Democratic Club met in the Mayor's office last niaht for the purpose of making arrangements for the club to participate in tho cele oration next Thursday. Col. John D. Taylor, the President, called the meet ing to order, and Mr. W. W. Shaw was requested to act as Secretary. A committee consisting of Col. J. L, Cantwell, T. Donlan and B, F. White was appointed on transparencies and to collect funds. Capt. C. D. Myers was appointed a committee on music. The President requests all members of the club" and all Democrats of tbe Third Ward to meet promptly at "o'clock, Thursday evening, at the gate of the City Hall yard, on Third street, and join the procession as a club The November Star Sprlukle. Tho display of the meteors radiating from the constellation Leo, due about this lime, should not be allowed to escape the observation ot amateur star gazers. As the meteor stream to which they belong is a permanent member of the solar system moving in a closed orbit, diligent observers can hardly .fail to be well rewarded for their pains. The date3 of the Novemberdisplay re corded from A. D. 902 to 1833 have been found to advance on the calendar at an average rate ot almost exactly three days in a century. On the strength of the observed interval between the great shower ot 1791 and that of 1832, a great meteoric exhibitiou was predicted for the nights of November 13 and 14, 1370. which came to pass. Since the grand show ers of the Leonids occur only in peri"! ods of about thirty-three and one third years (the earth then passing through the densest part of the meteor ring, the thickness of which is less than the ten thousandeth part of its length), wo can only expect now a star sprinkle. But the sight will probably well repay the trouble 6T those who can watch for It. The best time for seeing meteors, gen erally, is after midnight or in the early mornjeg, when twice as many are usu ally observable as in the evening, but tbey re visible at all hours ot the night. Tho point of the heavens from which they may be seen to diverge is near the centre of the sickla m Leo. Tbe weather on the Eastern side ot the country now promises to. be favorable for observing' them. . - Wo observe quite a flne display of new Revolvers ; f or xTcry reasonable pricat JacobiV Hardware Depot. ? t I 5' . - i . x - - ' . -v j NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

" There seems to be no doubt that the disaster originated as stated, from a match thrown carelessly on - some cotton by a lad who had just lighted a cigarette. The loss is not far from $250 000 and with insurance for "not more than two-thirds of this amount. The following shows the principal sufferers, with the insurance they carried : Jones & Yelverton, loss $25, 000; insurance $15,000. J. F. Miller, loss $5,000; insurance $3,500.

R., than the report er of the Raleigh Chronicle that the loss sustained, by Mr: J. A. Bonitz. of tbe Messenger, is $18,009, a small part oi which was insured, and that a large part of bis insurance expired on Satur day. Captain Jordan added that the blaze was so great that it wonld have stopped a train . The sceno is one of desolation. It i the most conspicuous portion ot the town that was burned the very ceu- tre of its business street and the portion of it of which it was prondest. An other spot (except the Opera ILust block across the street) could been de troyed with less loss of property or le destruction from the appearance of the town. It i3 a calamity thai GolJ- boro will recover from, but the recov ery will require a great effort and much money. The buildings burnt were not such as can be replaced with easy advantage. It was not a benefi cial fire, but a destruction of much of the most value property in tho town. Slisrbt Fire. There was a sliaht fire this morning at the residence of Mr. Thomas H. Howey, on Fourth street, near Ann. It caught on the roof, probably from a detect in the chimney. It was discov ered in time and by the assistance of the neighbors and passers-by it wa3 soon suppressed, after having burned a small hole in the roof. The alarm was not given until after the fire had been put out and there was of couse hen no need for tha services of the de partment. First Ward Democrats. At a meeting of the First Ward Dem ocratic Club, held last evening, the fol- owiog resolution was unanimously adopted and copies of it were sent to cvory other ward clubs in tbe city: Sesolved. That all tbe ward club and Democratic organizations request tbe Committee ot Arrangements to change the boor for starling the procession from 7 p. m. to 3 o'clock p. m., and that tbe line of march be extended up Fourth to Nixoo, out Nixon to Sixth, down Sixth to Red Cross, out Red Cross to McRae, down McRae to Princes?, &c And that tbe line rf march be continued until 12 o'clock, midnight.
