Given Friday Night by Clyde Thax-
tun
Clyde Thmoo, eon of Mr. ami
Airs. J. J. TbixtoD, ave a delight
ful party Friday night at the home
of hU parents on South street. The
evening was most pleasantly spent
by'all who were present. Among
those who attended were quite a
number of young ladies and gentle
men.
The hospitable home of Mr. and
Mrs. Thaxton was never more at
tractive. When the guesta departed
for their various homes, it was with
the feeling that all had en j yed the
occasion bugely.

Stocksdalti's Movements
The Sun learns that Oitis II.
Stocksdale, the captain of tbe Dur
ham team, will go to the Newark,
N. J. , team as soon as the season is
over here in North Carolina.- and
will be pitcher for the team. As
soon as his contract is out there
which will be some time this fall
be expects to return and go into
business in Durham. Uis friends
here will be glad to leirn, we have
no doubt, that he is not to leae us
entirely. .
What Next? .
Durham has street cars, automo
biles, locomobiles, bicycles, and va
rious other means of travel, but the
atest acquisition on our thorough
fares is an umbrella mender with a
tricycle, on the front of which is a
wire basket, in which he carries his
apparatus for repairing umbrellas.
Durham is a great town, anyhow,
and it would not surprise us at no
time lo see a flying machine floating
over the city.
Help the Baseballists.
A committee of gentlemen will
canvass tbe city today and Monday
for a few hundred dollars to assist
the baseball team in making a tine
show to the end of tbe season They
should be liberally encouraged, as
only several gentlemen have been
bearing the entire expenses so far
and keeping up the team If liberal
aid is given we will see good ball
playing in .Durham, and our team
will oome out all right.
To Change Base.
The private secretary of a promi
nent capitalist here, who, with his
wife, has only been a resident of
Durham for a few months, will re
sign his position during tbe coming
week, we learn. This gentleman is
to accept a position with one of tbe
leading railroad systems of this
country.

A Republican's Suggestion.

vention of Durham county has betn
called to meet At tbe court house on

convention is to be held, it has been

meet either in the basement of the
court house or in the revenue offi
cer's quarters over E lis' saloon.

CAN THEY DO SO?
We Fail to- See How They Can
Participate.
We are told that there are a few
Republicans ia Durham county who
anticipate attending the Democrat
primaries on the 20th of this month,
in order to take part in working and
voting for some Democrat. -
Under the rules and regulations
for conducting primaries, adopted
oy tne Democratic executive com
mittee of Durham county, June
14tb, we do not see bow Republi
cans can be allowed to do this. Of
course, if they desire to vote the
whole Democratic ticket, it will le
a different thing.
Article 6, of tbe Rules and Regu
lations says: "That all white men
who or will be qualified voters, at
the November election, 1902, and
who agree to abide by the result of
primaries and support tbe Demo
cratic ticket at said eleotion, are in.
vited to vote in the primaries."
As we understand it, to "support
the Democratic ticket," is to go tbe
whole ticket.
Lot Sold at Auction.
An auction sale of real estate took
place at noon today, at tbe court
house, by Victor S Isryant, commis
sioner. It was a lot belonging to
Amanda Mooson, deceased, and con
tains about one-fifth of an acre, the
property being situated on Chatham
street. John W. Smith was the
purchaser, bis bid being 1280. W.
R Herndon was the auctioneer.
To Attend the Meeting. .
W. G. Brambara. manasrer of the
Durham baseball, team, received a
telesram todav from President Per-
rin Busbee, of the State League,
tnat a meeting of the League would
be held in Raleigh tonight and to
send a representative. Mr. Stocksdale
went down on the 2:47 train and
will be present.
Home on Sick Furlough.
J. G. Baa-well, who went from
0 9 - -
here to Charlotte somejwo or three
weeks ago, and was forced to come
home the first of the week on ac
count of sickness, was out today.
He will remain here until be fully
recovers. J. H. Freeland went to
Charlotte a few days ago and is
looking after the business while Mr.
Bagwell is sick.
