The Picaninny that Enjoyed Him self Dressing Gown Start.' D. Schenck, Jr.. captured a lot of photographs down at the Phillipi fox meet that he prizes more than any oth er trophy of the event. There are two dozen of them and they cover all the phases of life at the camp. One of the pictures shows all the nimrods just as they returned from the chase. Gover nor Atkinson, of Georgia, is in I the centre with Reynard in his hand and the other members of the group are J . F. Jordan, Wm. A. Love, Maj. J. J. Nelson, D. Schenck, Jr., Capt. Oscar J. Brown, of the U. S. calvary and A. F. Brooks. ! Governor Atkinson insisted j on holding the fox. He said that he had a lot of constituents down in Georgia, who were disposed to be skeptical about his being off on a fox hunt, and he wished to have ocular evidence that he both hunted and caught. It is not at all improbable that this picture will figure in future cracker campaigns down in the red hills of Joel Chandler Harris and Frank L. Stanton. The Governor looks handsome and youth ful, and sits his horse like a born Cavalier. Captain Brown of the first cavalry has been in the frontier ser vice since 1877. He was instructor in horsemanship in West Point for a number of years, and is a magnificent equestrian. , One of the pictures in which he and the Governor appear makes it certain that it was unneces sary lor the .Governor of Georgia to reiterate the suggestion once made by the "Governor of North Carolina to the Governor of South Carolina." His fondest wishes in that direction were manifestly anticipated by the gentlemen of the party. j One of the most unique of the collec tion shows Mr. Jordan answering the call "boots and saddles" in a dress ing gown,, while Mr. Love appears canopied with an umbrella. The pic tures of the famous dogs, old Mose, Bert, Kate, Wonder, Lena and Dash are excellent, but then a dog of all animals is the especial pet of the camera. The "shirtless picaninnyjshould become classic. As a photographic art studv the maarazines have shown nothing better, while the "picaninny and pine rooter" are breezy of the pine and sand flats at Phillippi. Sam Harvey Drunk Again. Sam Harvey, who lives somewhere put on Ashe street, was drunk again last night. It was only last Sunday that he was pulled for drunkness and disorderly conduct, and on Monday he was released by the mayor on promise of good behavior. But he soon forerot his promise, for he was rip-roaring drunk last night, and his performance of iast Sunday was a tame affair compared with last night's Sam appeared on the streets with a shot gun, and must have thougnt it was Christmas or imagined that he was a revenue officer after moonshin ers. He blazed away with his old gun causing terror in the immediate vicin ity, but no one was hit. He must have shot at the moon, thinkingr the moonshiners were up there. His Honor ,the mayor, will probably enforce a sober spell on Sam this trip. He seems to be an old offender, and has heretofore gotten off very lightly. He was arrested last nieht by officer Whittington. All Smiles at Q. F. C. The enrollment of Greensboro Fe male College has reached one hundred and thirty. Three new students ar- T-ivp.d yesterday evening:. President Peacock tells us this is the largest en rollment the college has had for seven vears.i At least ten more students are ftxuected to arrive by the end of the fall term, which will run the enroll JT ment ut to a hundred and forty.

MONSTER DOUBLE MENAGERIE With John Robinson and Franklin Bros, Shows Combined. The menagerie department of these combined shows is beyond a doubt the greatest that the world has ever known The two menageries have been blended into one, and the combining of these two separate and distinct departments alone would make a display the equal of which has never been seen in the country.- There are two distinct herds of elephants, camels and all sorts of lead stock, two separate departments of lions, tigers, panthers and the only pair of real black tigers that has ever been seen in this country. The den of polar bears is a positive revelation to amusement seekers and the same thing was never seen in this country before with a traveling show. A great many dens of rare wild beasts are displayed daily in the mag nificent street parade, which is free to all and will take place daily at 10 a. m. And the very important fact must not be overlooked that every other department of these great shows is a double one, unlike any ever before seen. Many snows nave ana ao attne present time advertise dishonestly that they have two shows in one, but there has never been a combining of two really great shows in this land before, and people who are in doubt as to the genuineness of the putting together of the John Robinson and Franklin Bros.' Shows can readily set their minds at rest. This monster amuse ment institution comes so Greensboro, Saturday Oct. 16th, for one day and will give two complete performances. THE COLORED MILITIA. Capt. Taylor Will Take His Company . to Raleigh. Capt. C. S. L. A. Taylor, who, as noted several days ago, went to Ral eigh to make arrangements in connec tion with his chief marshalship at the Colored Industrial Fair, returned yes terday, reporting everything satisfac tory. He takes his company the Char lotte Light Infantry to the fair, and right now he asks the Observer to ask 'the white folks to let his men off. Surely there isn't a merchant in town who has ever seen Capt. Taylor drill his men who will deny him the pleasure of taking them to-Raleigh to show the people down there military tactics as only Capt. Taylor knows them. Capt. Taylor, who is also an enthu siastic Odd Fellow, being deputy dis trict grand, went to Goncord las night. on lodge business. Charlotte Ob server. Our County Roads. A gentleman who takes a great in terest in the development of our coun ty road system, tells us that the road force is doing good work between Guil ford College and Oak Ridge. Prof. Bandy has made surveys of the Per kins hill, and the hill near Stafford's mill and the grade has been reduced from 18 to 25 per cent. We most heartily commend the wis dom of our county commissioners in securing the services of an engineer. We regret that occasionally a man is found so narrow and selfish as to try to retard this most important work. Give Guilford county a good sys tem of roads and a good public school system in addition to her .excellent private schools one to develop her agriculture and material interests, the other for her educational advancement and the result will be well worth the trial. florning's Fever Bulletin.

GIVE US PIE, THE BATTLE CRY Of the Hungry Colored Brother Last Night SNICKERSNEE FOR GO. OFFICERS The Disposal of the Postofflce Left to Senator Prltchard Boiling En thuslam A Block of Five. In response to the handbill signed 'Many Republicans," calling a meet ing at Bogart's Hall last night, the colored brother swarmed and pitched pitched at the hall and pitched into certain other people. The object of the meeting was to protest against the treatment received by the colored voter at the hands of white Republicans, and the Republican officials of Guilford county especially. It was a colored man's meeting from start to finish and the hall was packed and jammed. There was a benchful of white Republicans present but, as one of the promoters of the meeting ex pressed it, "it got too warm for 'em and they skipped out in a bunch." W. E. Holley was made chairman and A. G. Nelson secretary of the meeting. Speeches were made by D. J. Gilmer, Prof. J. S. Williams, of colored graded school No. 1, Prof. JohnEdwell, of Jonesboro school, and Prof. W. B. Windsor, of Bennett col lege. The speeches were warm and were all along the same line denunci ation of the county Republican offi cials for their ingratitude in not divid ing the spoils. Some say that Tyre Glenn was excepted from the anath emas and some say he was not. One of the speakers said it was the white Democrats who gave the colored man the employment that enabled him him to feed his family; that the negro did not object to the treatment of the Democrats but of the Republicans. Prof. Edwell said that under the fusion arrangement the Populists, with 50,000 voters, get two-thirds of the spoils, the white Republicans get the rest and the negro, with 120,000 vot ers, gets nothing. He advised col ored men to vote with the party that promised the most spoils, re gardless of politics or religion. It was declared to be the sense of the meeting that a split be made in the Republican party in this county. In regard to the post-office, the meet ing crave Senator Pritchard a vote of confidence and said that whatever ac tion he migrht take would be satisfac- tory. A committee of five was appointed to wait on Sheriff Hoskins and ask him to give a colored man a position of some nature. No mention was made of the Bridges meeting. O'FERRALL AFTER LYNCHERS.
