(Special Star Correspondence.) Raleigh. N. C, Nov. 24. Marion Moore, of Pender county, died today in the Soldiers' Home here. He serv ed in Company D, Third Regiment, Junior Reserves, and made a fine sol dier. J. A. Hawkins, who served in Company H, 21st Regiment, is thought to be dying at the" hospital . in the Hom-e. Grand Master Samuel M. Gattis, of the. Grand Lodge of Masons, was here today and says that the dedication of the temple here early in January in connection with the annual communi cation will be made the greatest event eMn the , history of Masonry in North Carolina. Many of the greatest Mas ons in the country are expected here. This morning Judge James E. Boyd convened the Federal Court. The docket is quite a full one tfth 166 criminal cases and 78 warrants. Judge Purnell will not be able to hold court for some time though he 4s sitting up two or three hours each day now. ,-It is found that a notably large number' of persons are going from here to the football game between the A. & M. and V. P. I. at Norfolk Thanksgiving and that a special train will evidently be well filled. Most of the A. & M. cadet corps will go. There will be no greater rootei on the grounds than Governor Glenn, who goes there for that business. The detectives ' seem to have no doubt that theyvhavevipicked up the right people in the Smith murder case here in the persons of Fred Miller and a negro .hack driver and also in fled': Hopkins, , Very little has been fiaiaaKbuttheL case- in the last few days but today another white woman, a tenderloiner,. was arrested, it being understood that she knew something. The detectives say that they find that people In East Raleigh certainly have knockout drops and evidence will be produced to that effect. No one seems to know when there will be a hearing in this case. The suit of Ex-Justice Walter A. Montgomery vs. the New and Obser ver for $50,000 damages for alleged libel cannot come up before next Feb ruary and may be deferred beyond that date. ' Today J. J. Williams, one of the medical students of Shaw university here, was taken by a deputy sheriff from the jail to Windsor, Bertie coun ty, to be tried for seduction there. Young Lassiter, the flagman on the Seaboard Air Line train wno was thrown under his train by a gigantic hobo at Apex, this county, Is doing very well. His foot was amputated: a little above the ankle. He is In the hospital here and talks freely about the occurrence. The hobo, wno at first had enormous strength, picked him up after he had choked and rob ed him and deliberately threw him tarder the train in order that he might be killed then and there but Lassiter had strength enough to crawl but and thus-escaped the loss of only a foot. It seems to be' the opinion of the sher iff and others that the hobo has made a successful get-a-way. Last evening and this morning there were a good many callers at the exec utive mansion to pay their respects to Governor-elect Kitchin and there were many at noon at the luncheon given by Mrs. Glenn in compliment to Mrs. Kitchin. Mr. and Mrs. Kitchin left this evening for Scotland Neck, his birthplace, and will remain there some days. " The State Board of Canvassers will meet on Thursday, the day named in the law, to canvas the returns of the election but will adjourn until Fri day as business cannot be transacted on Thanksgiving day. Charters are granted the Shaw Clapp Lumber Company, of Greens boro capital stock $50,000, and the Sharp-Modlin Co of Winston-Salem, to deal in ry goods, $50,000. State Treasurer Lacy will have to pay out In January $1,035,000, made up as follows: $410,000 pensions, $170,000 interest; $100,000 appropria tion for maintenance of institutions; $170000 penitentiary bonds, which fall due Janutry 1st; $145,000 for expenses! of the Legislature that ' month. Sec tion 84 of the machinery ; act makes ; it a misdemeanor for a sheriff not to pay during the first ten days of ' a month all funds collected the prviSha month and the State Treasurer will issue a circular calling the attention - of sher iffs to this law and insisting on its being carried out. As a balance in the "Treasury . at the end of ' the year ) will not be over $350,000, it will be absolutely -necessary for sheriffs to obey strictly this provision of the law. Mr. Samuel H.. Farabee, city editor of-" The Journal, Winston-Salem, and Miss Jennie -Mabel Powell, daughter of the late A. M. Powell, yf or several rears mayor of Raieigh, ' were united In-marriage this afternoon at 3 o'clock fill UNIQUE CHRISTMAS IDEA Red Cross Stamps Will Be the Fad on Holiday Packages This Year Wilmington Society Much Encouraged. It is an altogether unique and pret ty idea that foie National Red Cross Society has advanced for the present Christmas holidays and which Is being introduced locally just now by the Wilmington Society. The stamps are pretty in design and each bears a happy greeting appropriate to the Christmas or New Year. The' Red Cross stamps, aside from the worthy cause in the interest of which ttoey are issued, are so emi nently proper as a seal for the mes sage or package of the yuletide that their use is already becoming a fad. These have been ordered by the thou sands by the local society and the ladies are very much encouraged at the manner in which the people have tatoen hold of the Idea. In Denmark and many other foreign countries the governments issue a stamp for the yuletide, many of them bearing a pro file of the King or ruler, and the pro ceeds from the sale, which are enorm ous, are used in the Red Cross work. In a Republic with constitutional limi tations, these stamps cannot be issued for postage by the government, but the government engraves and prints them for the Society at cost and then they are placed in the hands of the people for use during the gladsome holidays when one should not fee un mindful of those less fortunate. In this country, the proceeds from each city are used locally in that city, the special effort of the Red Cross just now being directed toward the staying of the Great White Plague about which so much is written. In Wilmington the ladies are very earnest in their efforts and they have generally met with the hearty co-operation of those In position to assist them in their laudable undertaking. The stamps are designed by Howard Pyle, the famous arist and each Christ mas packages or missive should bear one of these litle tokens of the sen der's joy and gratitude of living. The stamps are sold not only in sheets, but in books convenient to carry and ready for instant use. The stamps are but & 'penny each. As the literature of the Society explains the stamp "will not carry any kind of mail, but any kind of mail will carry it." Realizing from the experience of other cities that the sale of stamps will be large, the special effort being during the month of December, the ladies in charge in Wilmington have not only had many merchants and business men to agree to affix the lit tle tokens to their packages and let ters but a number of them have agreed to keep them on sale for the benefit of the general public. The following is a list of those firms which have agreed to use them personally during the month of December, those marked with an asterisk being stores where the stamps may be purchased by the general public: Platt & Haar, Alexander Sprunt & Son, 'Mission Pharmacy, 'Wilmington Grocery Co., People's Supply Co., Hilton Lumber Co., Hugh MacRae & Co., George Hon nett, 'Robert R, Bellamy, A. D. Brown, R. C. DeRosset, "J. W. Murchison, J. Hicks Bunting Drug Co., C W. Yates & Co., Review Job Printing Company, W. B. Cooper, Levi McMillan & Co., Hewlett & Price, J. Frank Jarman, Mrs. D. Rountree, Colonial Inn. Still others wil be interested and the names will be furnished through out the press from time to time. Those who desire stamps may make requisi tion for same to the president or through any officer of the local Socie ty. Mrs.W. L. Parsley is president; Mrs. Allan Nichols, treasurer, and Mrs. Cuthbert Martin, secretary. FUNERAL OF MRS. BARNES. Remains Laid to Rest Yesterday After Impressive Services at Church.

Brotherhood of Railway Clerks Make Appeal in Behalf of Comrade. (Communicatde.) in view of the aggravated manner in which William LeRoy Register, late of this city, met his death in New Or leans, La., and as he was for a long time a member of the clerical force of ttie Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company In this city and also a mem ber of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, it has been deemed the part of wisdom and duty on the nart of his brother clerks to do all in their power to punish to the full extent of the law what they conceive to be the cowardly assassin who, in such an unprovoked and uncalled for manner, inflicted the wound that resulted in his death. In furtherance of the plan referred to above, the clerks have appointed a committee to solicit subscriptions for the purpose of creating a fund to be used in prosecuting the person charg ed with his murder. While the Bro therhood of Railway Clerks is primari ly back of the prosecution in this case, yet they do not want to exclude any one who feels that he or she would like to contribute to what they con celve to be a most worthy- cause ' 1 ' hence, if there should be those who would like to aid in this undertaking, to bring what they regard a cold-blooded murderer to Justice and vindicate the death of one of your splendid young men, now is the opportunity, and any remittance, made to Mr. J. L. Davis, care of Mr. F H. Fechtig, pur chasing agent, Atlantic Coast Line General offices, Wilmington, N C, will be promptly acknowledged with thanks. It is contemplated to keep a record of the name and amount of each and every contributor, and a statement will be given to the press at stated periods, and when the case hag been finally settled, if there should be any balance on hand it will be return ed pro rata to the contributors. The railroad clerks are pledged to the prosecution of this case, but they have been led to think that there are a number of citizens in Wilmington who would be glad of an opportunity to help them. But whether .we get any outside assistance or not, we are go ing to push the matter to the extent of our ability. LOCAL NO. 25, B. of RY.. CLERKS.
