Jones-Mr. Hicks' Sad Death - The Funerals. , . The notices of four deaths in Ral eigh with the funerals since the last issue of this paper on Saturday afternoon, looks" gruesome jn the extreme. As . matter jot fact the appearance of these death notioes in the same column and under tbe same bead is merely a oolnddenoe of death. .Two of those who passed away were Infants; "and. the other two were men who were suffering from incurable disease. v Lastojght at his home Mr. Frank Hicks died at the age of thirty five years, of a complication of diseases. He was a popular man and there are many to mouri his death? He leaves qnlte a family, a mother, three brotbenvahree sisters a wife and two children. He was a nephea of Col. W; J. Hicks; Ile was a mem ber of the Raleigh '& Gaston Relief Assooiatioo; and a moulder by trade. rhe (nneral services will be con ducted from the "home this after noon by Rev. 0. H. Foster. With the ooming of Sunday morn ing With .its "Indian Summer" sweetness of breath, the brave spirit of veteran B. J. Jones passed from the siok body at the Soldiers' Home. Mr. Jones was about fifty years of age, but bad been an inmate for as long i term as any one of the vete rans. He was a member of Com pany uUn Second J unior reserves. and was a native of Halifax. county Tbe cause of death was consump tion, of which Mr. Junes 'was a sufferer when he came to the home. The funeral was held from the Home and tbe interment took placa in the Confederate cemetery where the remains i f Veteran Jones lie in company with those of patriot of the cause for which fought -V On Saturday afternoon the life of the little eight-months-old child of engineer W. T. Horton, of the Sea board Air Line, passed away at the home of har father. Rev. O. H Foe ter oond acted the funeral services from the borne yesterday afternoon. Sunday. . tbe .little ohUd of Mr. William A. Woods, one of Raleigh's best -compositors, died here, j Rev. O. H. Foster conduoted the funeral servioes over this little one, also. So Saturday and Sunday were sad days for this man of God, as well as those bereaved ones. - w : A TWO CENT KATE Secured for the'Silter Convention, Wednesday Week Encouraging reports have been re ceived relative to the attendance on the aUysr eoareatioa which assembles in tble-olty Wednesday week. It is rather early to estimate' the attendanee, but i large numbervof delegates from all sectioasbf the State are expected. Mr. Ed.

Pitched' From a Car Into Fayette- TUle8txeetPSTlng8ujo.e-ADoh -er Baby Tumbles. About? Jve; o'clock yesterday afternoon a' street car was rounding the oorter at Morgan street and haading down Fayetteville. At this curve there is asonsiderable jar as the curve Is . turned, 'specially if any rate of speed has been attained before the ; turn Is made. The oar was bumming yesterday. On a seat 'near the front sat a' fath er and mother With a toddling baby. Tbe little one bad crawled along the seat to the end, and tbe parents bad followed ltd When .the curve waa reached all three Bat on the west end of the seat, the baby clinging to the outside support. When tbe lurch came, baby caught the oentiifugal motion, lost bis hold aad'pitohed bead, long to the street, striking irs carley bead and should ers on the paving stonds- The cr Was stopped suddenly. Baby lay perfectly still, and the parents and passengers feared the worst. But But once in the armes of its mother, the little cne opened his eyes, raited a sympathetic hand to tbe bump on his head and then be yelled the loud toned, lusty yell of a thour onghly mad, but healthy baby. And discordant as tbe voice .must have seemed to the world, it soundta sweet as softest music to all who saw-the accident. Yesterday seemed to be an unfor tunate one fur babies on street cars. A little before this a bar stopped to I let off a woman and her child at the Baptist Church corner. The moth I er jgot out quickly and turned to help the ohud. Tbe latter missed her Out stretched arms and fell to the ground. The car started and the running step alongside grazrd the baby's prostrate form. . That ho damage came from either accident is truly wonderful. M'G'R. MEARK'S ATrRACTlONS.

Virginia and North Carolina Com panies Slake an Agreement. The mueh-talked-of fertilizer con solidation haa now assumed practical form. Tt waa organized in New York the Virginia-Carolina Chemioul Company, with the following directors: Messrs. B, B. .Adison, James G. Tinsley, S. W. Tsavers and 8. D. Crenshaw,' of Richmond; Portesqne Whittle, of Pctareburg; F. B. Dancy, and S. T.-Korgaaef Norfolk, and L. A. Carf, of Darhana, N. C. It is understood thst this organiza tion has bought out the following con cerns:; Allison & Addison, Jsmee G. Tlnaley A Co., Atlantis, and Virginia Fertilizing Company, of.

LIBERAL DONATIONS. A MandHoine afcw fcillflcc Will be Roared Mrs. Head Gave $2,000 Julius Lewis $1,000. " That was a 'remarkable meeting at thareabyterian Church yester day muming. The sum of $9,300 was raised therein a little over an hours time for the erection of a new church. Said a brother it required "earnest ness, enthusiasm and not lease pray er." The meeting bad been duly an nounced and a goodly Dumber of people were in attendance. They came with a unit of purpose and the result of that meeting, which is noted elsewhere shows how, well they ac complished their purpose. The Presbyterians are not over hasty in their actions, but when they do move they mean business. ' Dr. Daniel, the "belovtd pastor of the church presided at the meeting yesterday. In an opening talk, whioh was qujte appropriate,Dootor Darnels stated tbe obj-tot of tbe meeting and the great need for a new church. Prof. Hill then moved that a com mittee of three be selected to retire and recommend a committee on finance and a committee on build ing. Messrs. Seymour Whiting, G. W. Thompson, jr , and H. W. Jack- eon were appointed on that commit tee. The finance committee is composed of about 30 members and Mr. Alt A. Thompson isCbairman. The Build ing Committee is composed of about tan members and Mr Julius Lewis in Chairman. As chairman of the finance committee, tbe duty of soli citing subscriptions devolved upon Mr. Thompson. It is hard to believe that there is another gentleman ex tiyit, who could have done it so suc cessfully. Mr. Thompson has a deli cate and subdued vein of humor which he used to advantage yester day, lie had the audience with him completely and much of the credit for securing so large an amount is ue to Mr. Thompson's untiring ef forts. The amount already pledged will certainly be increased sever al thousand dollars in a very short time. A few of the wealthiest mem bers 'of the church were absent yes terday aul U is known that they de sire to increase the contributions. The contributions ranged all the way Uom 2,iKX) to very small amounts. Mrs E.G. Head gave JJ.OOO, Jul ius Lewis gave $1,000, Mrs. E. E. Mofflt and H. W. Jackson gave $400 each. Mr. A. A. Thompson. Mr. J M. Monie, Mr. C. Wharton, Mr. James Dinwid- dio, Mrs. B. F. Montague and Mrs. W. Lee gave 300 each. Other amounts of $200, $iuO and so ou were also pledged. No definite plans about the struo ture itte f or the time work will be gin have beeu arranged. Tbe matter will likely take chape at arly date. The edifice will be a 'magnificent one of the latest architectural de signs, costing not less than $20,000 or 125 000. NO. 5MJ, A BEAUTV. Tbe New Seaboard Engine that will be Exhibited in Atlanta. ' The prettiest and the moat oostly engine that was ever in tuueign o.tme in at Johnson street Saturday, and was the object of many admit laZ eyes yesterday, it, was a gem Indeed, the perfection of engineer's science. The engine is known as 640, and is just from the shops of the Richmond Locomotive Works. It was built especially for the Seaboerd and wiU be one of the attractions at the At lanta Exposition.

' Some nights ago a quiet, unobtru sive-looking gentleman walked into Royater's candy store and asked to see aome guitars. Be picked one out and, after a little preparatory tuning, ran his Angara lightly over the strings. The clerks stopped s' ill In amazement and those id the store turned their eyes quickly, "Where did the man have bis orchestra ooncealedf" He had a guitar on his lap, to be sure, and he was lingering the strings; bnt no such muaie had anyone heard be fore from that instrument. Still on he played, the rich notes rolling out rap idly and with Wonderful sweetness. A well known Raleigh guiter player turned sadly and left the store. Bat others took his place. , Ia a few min utes the store was packed, each passer by stopping as hypnotized. For an hoar the oeucert continued. Prof. Bain, for that is the player's name, is here for the purpose of start ing classes in the mandolin, banjo and guitar and. teaching them a new method of his own. He already has twenty-eight scholars. It is really wonderful to hear this man's performances. Tbe general idea of guitar playing is a drumming of sim ple oborda. Prof. Bain gets more out of the instrument than moat people can from a piano. He plays classical music of every sort, straight through. The effecoti the hearer ia marvelous. Prof. Mean' heard Mr. Bain and his guitar and was not long in engaging him to play at the Academy. He will appear there on Ootober 11th. No commendation 'of his performances would be eitravagant. ANOTHER ISSUE OK BONDS. Said to Have Been Arranged With the Belmont Syndicate. Chicago, III., Sept. 10 Charles L. Hutohinson, president of the Coin Ex change Bank, of this eity, said today: "I have it on the beat authority from New York that another issue of bonds has been arranged for between the government and the "Morgan-Bel-moot syndicate. I received the infor mation jsssterdsy, and I understand the only delay In issuing the new batch of boeds is on account of the amount. I believe President Cleveland desires to sell only $36,000,000 w rth of bonds now, while the syndicate wauls the issue to be at least $60,000,000. I know nothing of the proposed terms, but I eipeot the announcement of the loan will be made in a day or two." The Slandor Cases. It appears that this paper was not perfectly clear in the statement of the settlement of the Oak Grove Township Slander Cases. I called on Judge Roberts this morning and asked to see the record in these oases and copied from these as follows : "This aotion ooming on" for trial this 14th day of September, 1895, the defendant being in court files tbe fol rowing : ) Justice's Court, (.

"Costs paid land aotion dismissed. certified copy delivered to Miss Mag gie Gray. The above entry is mf.de in each of the four cases tbe same papers being signed by each defendent.

These and a hundred other ex. presalons were beard Saturday even ing as a pair of those much talked of trouserettes made conapicoous a young lady who elided down .Fayetteville street rather swiftly, before the excited populace oould get a fair glimpse of her. - Up to date, her name is mud so far as tbe public ia oonoerned.
