J New Yoke, September 20 An elabo rate and well planned attempt at arson m a house full of people was brought to light to-day. The diabolical crime, however, miscarried. Its only result was the killing of a woman, wife of the man whom the police arrested on the charge of setting fire to the house. The woman was Mrs. Gers tev wife of Leo Gerstey, a saloon keeper, at hi Rivington street. The fire was dis covered in his house. He lived on he-second floor with his wife and cMd, and ivitrors orcuDied the third floor. Early this morning a police officer saw - flames in the house and scave an alarm. He and another ofllcer entered the adjoining house and aroused the inmates. Then, as cending to the roof, they went to the rescue ' of the occupants of the burning building. They however, at the first alarm, had fled to the street; all but two Mrs. Gerstey and her nine-year old boy. f They were found on the roof; the boy nearly choked with smoke and the woman dying from horrible burns. The two were brought to the street In the meantime the fire had spread, and eaten its way through to the roof, rne names Diazea furiously. When the fire was put out it was found that everything in the house had been saturated with kerosene oil, and the gas -every where turned on. A sofa was saturated with oil and chairs piled on it in the front room, and it was then set on ' fire. Fire was also started in the ' closet. Kero sene steeped wood and shavings were scat tered everywhere in the house. Mrs. Gerstey could give no account of the affair. She was taken to a hospital and died at . daybreak. The boy was not badly burned. The husband could be found howhere. It was reported that he had a quarrel with his wife and went away And was seen no more. It is conjectured that the woman had a hand in firing the house.

Jarvis will speak at Marion on Mondav. September 22. Judge Fowle and F. A. WoodardY candidate for. Congress, spoke at Snow Hill to a large and enthusiast ic crowd, and we learn that the condi tion of affairs in Greene is all that we could wish. - The canvass Maj. Stedman, candidate for Lieu tenant Governor, has been making in the west has won for him great ap plause and has established for him an enviable reputation as a stump speaker of unusual brilliancy and re-, sources. The western papers give him warm Draise and one of our Asheville exchanges . speaks of his late speech at that place as being equal to the best y et delivered there. 'Talking with a gentleman, himself a campaigner ranking with the best the State has ever had, he told us that he heard Major Stedman and Judge Faircloth at Stateville and that not only was Major Stedman's victory complete but his speech was eloquent and vigorous, and a finer effort one seldom hears on the stump. State Grleanings. Goldsboro Bulletin: Wc regret . to hear of the death of Mrs. John' II. Pate. She died at her' home at Sandy Plain on Thursday. New Berne Journal: A pin dropped out of the engine on the up train yesterday morning wnen near ruscarora. The throttle lever struck the engineer, Mr. G. W. Brinkley, inflicting a severe wound. Raleigh JBanner-Mitrprise:The village of Oberkn is about two miles in length and is rapidly growing. The most of the houses are well buiit. and present a beautiful appearance. The yards are well laid off, and many of them are full of beau tiful grass and flowers. The houses are well furnished and are, neat and clean. Greensboro Workman : The Farmer and Mechanic prints the whopping statement that since the North Carolina ex hibit at Boston $3,000,000 of capital had been invested in North Carolina, and cha racterizes it as "unfortunately untrue," in which the Farmer and Mechanic is un doubtedly correct. We are probably ex pecting too much from our show days. Durham Reporter: Capt. N. A. Ramsey, who returned from a visit to Pitta boro yesterday, tells us of a beautiful map of Chatham county, which the ladies are preparing for the Exposition.- It is not drawn with pen or pencil, but the entire county is shown by moss that is sewed on canvas. Towns, mountains, rivers, rail roads, dirt roads, factories, flocks of sheep grazing here and there, all look as natural as life. The Captain says it wiH he worth a trip to the Exposition to see it." , Asheville Advance: We learn from a gentleman- who came direct from Madison county yesterday, that deputy sheriff W. H. Haney, of that county, was dangerously and perhaps fatally wounded ' by two men by the name of Fox, on Ivy, near the Yancey line, on Wednesday, while endeavoring to execute a warrant against one of them. ,He was shot in the shoulder by one of the men while the other eut him on the abdomen with a knife, inflicting a dangerous wound about four inches in length. ''.! ii ' jy.::,i -fiiv 1 Raleigh Farmer. & Mechanic: Gen. T. L. Clingman informs us that he is in receipt of scores of letters testifying to the efficacy of the ' 'Tobacco Remedy. " His article has gone the rounds of 'the Union, as many as 30,000 copies being printed by "Health and Home." Geo. W. Kirk, of Kirk and Bergen's outlaws, was in Waynesville last week supposed to be working up some deed of deviltry. The News says' the citizens declined to ac cept an introduction to him. This is to the credit of - Waynesville. Kirk's conduct in Alamance and Caswell was bad enough, but his previous record was still worse. Kirk and McLindsay dodging about the State signifies some scheme of skunkery. CITY ITEMS. VERDICT OP ALL THE JURIE3.-Benson'g Capeine Plasters have been awarded gold med als over aU competitors.

A DOWN TOWN MERCHANT, having passed several sleepless nights, disturbed by the agonies and cries of a suffering child, and becoming con vinced that Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup .was just the article needed, procured a supply far the child. On reaching home and acquainting his wife with what he had done, she refused to have it administered to the child, as she was strongly in favor of Homoeopathy. That night the child passed lnsunermg,and the parents without sleep. Return ing home the day following, the father found th baby still suffering : and while eontemplaainr an. other sleepless night, the mother stepped from the room to attend to some domestlo duties and left the father with the child. During her ab sence he administered a portion of the Soothing Syrup to the baby, and said nothing. That night all hands slept welL and the little fellow awoke in ttemorntog bright and happy. The mother was delighted With the wnndnrfnl - ehnnim. tmA , al- 1 though at first offended at the deception prao I Oced upon her, has continued to use the Syrup. ana sunermg crying babies and restless nights have disappeared. A single trial of the Syrup never yet failed to relieve the baby, and over 'eomethe prejudices of the mother. Sold by all Druggists, ss cents a bottle. - LOCAL NEWS. Aid for the Soldiers Borne. ' .We learn from the Richmond State that the Board of Visitors of the Soldiers' Home of the R. E. Lee Camp, Confederate Vete- rans, have contracted with the Harris Dra mtliV Hnmnanvj of New York City, tO give a series of performances for the Home fond. Local aid committees of ladies and gentlemen have been formed in the follow ing cities: Richmond, Norfolk, Lynchburg. Wilmington, Charlotte, Charleston, Colum-; bia,1 Pensacola, Savannah, Macon, Colum bus, Rome, Augusta, Atlanta, Mobile, Bir mingham, Opelika, New Orleans,Memphis, fVicksburg, Chattanooga, "Knoxville, Nash ville. Frankfort. . Lexington, Ky., Louis ville,: Cincinnati, St. Louis and Kansas City, and from the tenor of the letters daily teceived by the Secretary, says the State, the movement promises to be a grand sue-. ce88,financially and fraternally. ' " m m Fruit for the Exposition. Friday afternoon we took a look, in com pany with Capt Noble, at his large collec tion of jars of fruit, stored on the second floor of Briggs' drug store, preparatory to being sent to the State Exposition. The fruit is very fine, especially the pears, Which are splendid specimens, very large and Jteautif ul. Sulphuric acid has been found to be the best" preservative after all. The fruit put up in .this remains perfect and solid, while that put up in alcohol not only loses its color, but the liquid becomes so discolored that the fruit cannot be seen to advantage. Wc have been satisfied during the past few weeks that New Hanover will make a very creditable display at the Exposition. Reversing Things. One of our city sportsmen slightly re- versed the order of things. last Friday. when lie straddled the colored brother's back for transportation across a certain ditch. The "bottom rail" was not then on "top.' The colored brother couldn't see the difference, however, while his head was under the water, nor was it any time for the sportsman to think of "swapping horses," while his hunting suit and trap pings were trailing ingloriously in the mud. The depth of a clear running brook is easily fathomed, but the deep downness of a muddy ditch is not so readily ascertained, until you try it, as the sportsman and col ored brother did. Personal ; We are glad to learn that Rev. W. I. Hull's health is steadily improving. He is stopping with Mrs. Harkey, a worthy Christian lady who keeps a boarding house, and now thinks he will go no further than Monroe; the weather is so cool. Rev. Mr. Tuttle and wife returned to Smithville on Friday. Prof. M. C. S. Noble, Superintendent of the Wilmington Graded Schools, returned to this city Friday, but goes back to John-' ston county for a few days on account of the sickness of his father, Cotton. The receipts of cotton during the week closing yesterday .footed up 2,362 bales, as against 1852 bales for the corresponding week last year, an increase of 510 bales . There has been a falling off of 475 bales since the commencement of the crop year, however, the receipts being 8,497 bales this year as against 3,972 bales for the corre sponding period last year.
