THE MORNING POST. SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1900 8 I' 0YLAN, PEARCE & CO B We are very anxious to get you acquainted with our goods. Of course we don't expect you to gratify our wishes just because we want you to do so. We know that our business affairs are of no particular interest to you unless you can do better here than elsewhere. .That's why we urge the acquaintance. We are the largest dealers here in our lines. Quantity talks. And we give you as much for your money as we can and leave a living profit fcr ourselves. It would be folly for us to tell you that we are in business just for the fun of it. We are in business because there's a prolt in doing business. But remember, we give you full value for your money. In fact, tetter value than a great many others, because we handle larger quantities and certainly better assort ments. Just here we want to say that all the swell finery so dear to womankind is here for inspection. All the advanced styles for winter season are shown, and those who desire to make their se lections may rest assured that it will be to their advantage to buy now in preference to waiting several weeks. . lilies We make the - C 3 A'! 1 1 a; f H assertion with 'ready to show a full line of colors impunity, no j 27-inch Striped Opera Flannels at. .

Hauford on being question ed as to whether the title of his new play for the coming season "Private John Allen" was in, any wise associated with the real John Allen of Tupelo, whose genial gifts as a raconteur have made him so famous tarough the country and so popular amonc his associates in Congress, replied "Well not exactly." Koth are good strong men of character; both are tine speakers, both are in poli tics. John Allen in the play is elected senator and John Allen of Mississippi is expected to be. This attraction comes to the Academy at an early Ana M"H-:- and Marv MacReynolds sued Otis Skinner last week, alleging Ii1 has infringed upon a popyright secur ed by them in 1S98.

The progrm discribed O'Flynn's Birth day, as "the Musical Farce comedy success, featuring, the. droll comedian and dainty soubrette, Dupont and Scho lield, supported by a companv of star nrtists." The program might have read with greater accuracy.. O'Flynn's Birth day, "a dull attempt at'. farce, presented by barnstormers,, who are without com pare." The musical feature was rolled out by voices that Knew, not the differ ence between hisses and aonlause. The Birthday has not a redeeming feature. Its superior as a-vehicle of amusement may be seen in most any city for the price of beer.

The report of the president and of the treas urer as to the 'work done and the money received, expended, and balance in bank was most gratifying. Last week at the Academy of Music "Sherlock Holmes" and "O'Flyn's Birth day" drew good crowds, who were well pleased. Manager Rivers is the best man who has ever had charge of the the atrical attractions for Raleigh, and for his untiring work in this direction Ral eigh owes him thanks and a good pat ronage this season. The dog and pony show yesterday drew a large crowd and all were pleased. The following account of the launch ing of the torpedo boat "Bagley," at Bath, Me., September 23. is copied from The Post for the benefit of those who may not have seen it before. Anything pertaining to Worth Bagley is of inter est to the people of the United States, and particularly so to North Carolinians: Magnificently impressive were the !nruhinEr pprsmmiips tfe.ndinr the slld- rtng from the ways of the torpedo boat nagieiy. onorny airer 1 oiwn iuui; Mrs. Josephus Daniels Raleigh, N. C, sent against the sharpest points of the bow a bottle of champagne with the REALM words, "I "christen thee Bagley." The Bagley left the ways smoothly and swiftly. The launching, according to, naval officers, was the most successful in .many years. Mrs. Daniels stood on a platform decorated with American flags and with her were Mrs. Adelaide L Worth Bagley of Washington, Cadet David Worth Bagley of the Naval Acad emy, Henry Bagtey of liichmond, Mrs. Benjamin Moffitt of Franklintoh, N. C, and Josephus Daniels, Sr., Josephus Daniels, Jr., and Worth Bagley Dan iels, ail relatives of Ensign Worth Bag ley. Every foot of standing room in sight of the dock was filled and in the en closure for the launching party were seven representatives of the navy, prominent people of .Maine and a dele gation from the Worth Bagley Camp, Spanish-American Veterans, of Boston. On the bow of the Bagley was a hand some floral decoration from the Boston ! eaimp With the word "Bagley" in flowers and i,n the conning tower was an equally handsome noral tribute from tne naval officers stationed here. On?the stern con ning tower had been placed the bronze nieta-llic tablet engraved with appropri ate words. This was the gift of the mother of the gallant young hero in whose honor the vessel was uaernd. Vice President Hyde, of the Bath Iron Work's, builders of the Bagley, tendered an elegant luncheon to the launching ! party immediately after the successful launching. Mr. Hyde and Mr. Sewell. son of the late Arthur Sewell, with others, have handsomely entertained the j launching party aud those in Bath to j night are guests at a quiet and beautiful dinner at the beweJl mansion. The .next thing in point of interest to come within the list of social features for Raleigh is the convention of the Daughters of the Confederacy, which meets October 10. There will be fifty three delegates in attendance. Capt. C. B. Denson will on the afternoon of the lOtfh deliver an address on "The Life and Character of Jefferson Davis." The reception that Mrs. Grimes Cowper was to have given to the convention has had to ibe- given up on account of the illness of Mrs. Cowper. The Johnston Pettigrew Chapter, U. D. C, and the Capital Ol ub will give receptions to the delegates and all other Daughters. In vitations to the Ladies'- Memorial Asso ciation, Daughters of the Revolution, L. O'B. Branch Camp and the Sons of the Veterans have been sent to the heads of those organizations. This same in vitation is intended to include every member of these organizations. The auxiliary to the camp is also asked to attend. Mrs. Garland Jones is chair man of the Jefferson Davis Memorial Committee. Mrs. Spier Whitaker and Mrs. J. B. Kenny and Miss Devereaux are also on that committee. Invita tions have been sent to the three city dailies. On October 22nd commences Fair week which is always a week filled to overflowing with gayety. This year will be no different from the previous ones. Mr. W. T. Old, of Elizabeth City, is the chief marshal, and he and his assistants will do all in their power to make the week one continuous whirl of pleasure. The many friends of Mr. W. T. Old. of Elizabeth City are delighted that he has accepted the position of chief marshal at the approaching fair. Mr. Old is one of the State's most prominent and popu lar young men and nis administration of the office of chief marshal will be admirable in all respects. It possibly is not known what the King's aughters are doing here in -their special lines of work. The Rescue and the Ministering Circles are quietly, but persistently doing the noble works that are intimated oy the names of the two circles. The St. Luke's Circle, which is the one that has for its work, the care and maintenance of the "Home for Aged Women and Confederate Veterans' Widows." has - purchased the property where the Home now is, and will make some changes there. The purchase was only for a temporary . Home, as these ladies have now worked with a large and well equipped Home in view. The financial agent, Mrs. M. A. Johnson has been called in for the present at least, as a part of this circle there is an auxil iary, led by Mrs. J. S. Atkinson com posed of girls, fourteen, in number and none of them over 14 years of age. The report from these children is remarkable. '-' The social event of the past week of most interest was the marriage on Wed nesday evening of Dr. Norwood Giles Carroll and Dr. Delia Dixon, the resi dent physician of the Baptist Female University. Mr. W. P. Whitaker was best man, and Miss Conne Carroll maid of honor. ' The bridesmaids were the young lady members of the faculty: Miss Watkins with Miss Brewer, Miss Perry with Miss Poteat, Miss Pattou with Miss Eckloss. The bridal party entered the hall to the strains of Mendelssohn's "Wedding March," rendered by Miss Martinson the violin and Prof. Hoffham on the piano. The ring ceremony was nsed. After the marriage ceremony at the University a reception was given fhe bridal party by President Vann, at his residence, corner of Person and Edenton streets. There were no guests except the rela tives of the bride and groom and the faculty and students of the University. A reception was given at the A. and M. College bv the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes last night from S to 10 o'clock. The following ladies from the various churches and elsewhere were the chaper ones for the occasion: From the 'First Baptist Church Mrs. A. A. Marshall, 3Irs. J. A.

Manager Rivers advertises that the lady holding the greatest number of tick et coupons at the end of the threatrical season will be given a prize. A certain young society man, it is said will gladly give 25 cents for every coupon bruht to him. "The small boy" should noto this and secure coupons, 'xius will be a financial harvest to himv and give pleas ure to the young man and the young lady that will finally get the prize. THREE REASONS WHY "W H Harrison Favor Simmons for United StaUs Senator Editor Morning Post: Having noticed several commnniea tions in your esteemed paper from this place concerning the claims of the dif ferent candidates for the United .States Senate, I desire to pi-esent some reasons why the Hon. F. M. Simmons should succeed Marion Butler in the Senate: First. He is well qualified for this ex alted position. He is a man of great ability a practical statesman who has demonstrated his ability in a way which is unmistakable. His experience as a leader, as a politician, and as an ab! debater would render his services at the national capital of inestimable value t ) the people of the State. 2nd. He is the logical candidate at this time. There are many political reasons why he should be elected. While the other three gentlemen in the. field are good men men of character and standing in the party there are good reasons political reasons why none of them are available at this time. The writer believes that in this opinion he voices the sentiment of tnose in North Carolina politics who are in a postiou t know as to this fact. The political re cord of Mr. Sinimons, his fitness, and hi position at this time all combine to make him the ideal candidate for the senatorshp. 3rd. His faithful and efficient services as leader of the 'Democratic hosts of tho State for several years, entitle him, in the opinion of the writer, to the position. With all respect to the other leaders in the State, Mr. Simmons "has done among us the woiks that none other man has done" with the exception of the im mortal Vance. The writer has had some opportunity or judging as to the strength of the dif ferent candidates, having travelled over a large portion of the State, and from the best information he can gather, be lieves that the people of the State are overwhelmingly for Simmons. Being at Chapel Hill now and judging from the expressed sentiment of the student body so far as he has had the chance to learn he is of the opinion that this fact is also true of them as of the people, of the State generally; and surely the expres sion of the students of tho University U a fair index to the sentiment of the people of the State, coming, as they do, from every section of North Carolina. vM.

Tne senatorial question came up and u appearing that the acclaimers of 'the respective candi dates were anxious to discuss their merits a resolution -was adopted- to the effect that .hereafter a part of the time devoted to the regular meetings may be used in urging the claims of the several candidates for senator by such of their fc friends as care to do sc.
