MR. WORTH'S VISIT.

Buffalo Bill's Wild West Is not s

and so ssy we all.
This question se to whether the

week bean uppermost in the minds of
the State Treasurer and the vari ai
county and eity officers where the
show is to appear. Treasurer Worth
one time decided that Buffalo would
have to pay the regulation circus
tax, bat later he got shaky on the
question. After seeing the psrade
he got still more so. The Treasurer
saked the Attorney-General for an
pinion and the Attorney General sd
ised Mr. Worth to' take the thow in
snd decide for himself.

THE CONTRACT LET
Vitrined Brick tStjsUaed Will Coet
$l,S0O Has Been Highly
SnooessfnJ. ''
The city, through the Chstrm&n of
the Street Committee;, lir. John C.
Drewry has awarded a contract to
the Virginia Paving andConsolidat-
ed Company of Lynohburg,-Va., for
the pavement cf Hargett street from
Fayetteyille to, Salisbury through
the in erseotion. Tbe street will be
paved with a new pavement-vitrified
brick. It is something entirely new
to this section, but is being adopted
in all tbe large cities of the North.
New York City a few days ago let
out a contract for paving 30,000
square yards. Atlanta has made a
ontraotfor 25,000 In fact all tbe
leading oities are using the briok
which are said to be harder and
more durable than the belgium. Mr
Drewry bas been in correspondence
with the Street Commissioners ol
che leading aides and they invari
ably ui- r to the vitrified mink as
theidenl pavement. In Kooxville,
Lynoti 'u v, Jacksonville and other
joatb )iu oiues this new pavement
aa ti.iiu successfully used. While
thj u 3 1 tbe brick is an experiment
wich u-, i h-Td is no risk to be run,

I'be 0OQtr0v bas already been
tigged. The Couipauy is to do tht
work at $1 00 per square j ard. The
irea that will be pved is about 1800
.quire yards. Tbe city pays half ot
this amount and tbe property owners
.be remaiuder. Pavement with vitri
led brick is obeaper than with Bel-
ium.block.
Another advantage is that the
brick make a nioe fit and do not per-
nit ot filth aettting in the orevioet
ts is the case with Belgium block
f his argument is used in their favoi
from a sanitary, view. Tbe briok
tie very much like those used on tbe
iidewalk in front of the court house.
Work will begin In a week or so.
The city will do the exoayating and
the grading, and this will commence
aa soon as Mr. Blake gets through
on Hulsboro street..' The earth used
in sxoavating will be dumped in the

FROM ANOTHER STANDPOINT.
Mr. Chaa. K. Johnaon Say that Mr.
St. John will be Endorsed. .
The Bt. John element seam to msBl
fast bo uneasiness in regsrd to the
report that are going the rounds to
ths effect that Mr St. John and his
administration may confront a new
deal on the 15th when the stoekhold
ers of the Seaboard hold their annual
meeting in Portsmouth, Vs. Mr.
Chas. E. Johnson, of this aity, Is aa
administration) man snd is, perhaps,
a wall post-d on the affair of th
Seaboard ss sny one out of the official
family.
Mr. Johnson thinks that there is ao
opposition to Mr. St. John to amount
to anything, and attributes all the re
ports going around to common atreet
talkf - Ma. Johasoa. is director of
the roaJ, and ha says that Mr. St.
John will be endorsed by a very large
majority. .He does not think that the
Baltimore interests are arrayed against
cither Mr Hoffman or Mr. St. John.
However, tbe report coiues with dog
like persistence that a change will be
made.
We shall see what we do see.

an Excellent Man.
Some weeks ago this paper repotted
a mi eliug of the Y. M. C. A directora
at which it was decided to thoroughly
reorg. um tbe association and to eleai
a new and tiUcient secretary, Mr. W.
J. Cooper, who filled the position so
acceptably, having resigned. The se
lection of a seoretary was left with Mr
Anderson, tbe iotrrnniional secretary.
Mr. Anderson has carefully looked
out for the association's interests and
(elected Mr Overton an eminently fitted
co fill the position. Hn is a spleudidly
educated young man, an excelleLt mu
sician, a member of the Methodist
sburch snd possessed of rxlraordi-
aary social endowment.
The board of directors unanimously

THE WEEKLY COTTON REPORT.
As Compared With Laat Year Total
Receipts are Light,
Mr. George Thompson has finish
ed . preparing his cotton report, re
ceipts, shipments, etc., for the week.
Tbe weekly report is a comparative
one and therefore of interest, show
ing tbe difference between the con
ditions of this and last year. Tbe
report is as follows:
Receipts this season to date, 4,200
bales, to same date last season, 7,630,
Tbe weekly receipts were 1,417; Jast
year 1318. Shipments were 8,370;
stock on the platform, 849.
It will be seen that the total re

Iter hearing her, one can see why
she ranks among the foremost Euro
pean dramatio sopranos. Her voioe
is cultivated to the highest, and its
scope, volume, expression and sweet
ness all combine to make it ideal
Though the signorloa was suffering
from a severe cold last nigbt, she
sang in a way to conceal the fact.
Her first appearance pleased her au
dience. When she began to pour
forth the lovely notes of Luzzl's
r Ave Maria her bearers wen
o harmed and she was' forced to re
spend to an enoore. When she ap
peared again and sent forth with
wondrous sweetness and clearness
the notes of the grar.d aria from
Verdi's " fra viata," the audience sat
and listened as quint as death,till the
last nottt.died, and then osme a wild
burst i f applause that called her
forth aain, rendering tbe lovely
"Kiss .-oog." Home of ber note'

MR. WINDER WAS NOT CAIJUHT.
Said That St. John Tried to Force
Him to Resign His Ortli.e.
Naturally the recent discharge of
'ieneral Manager Winder's Chief
Ulerk Elliot, the particulars of whiob
were first published in the Pbbss
Visitor, has caused great comment.
Railroad men generally are highly
indignant at what tbey consider an
outrage.
The Priss-Visitor's news of yes
terday bears out tbe reason given by
t railroad man last night, in expla
nation of tbe quiet way in which Mr.
Winder took the insult offered him
by tbe discharge of bis Clerk. "Un
ler ordinary oircu instances," he
tftid, "Mr. Wiuder would ULdoubt
tdly have resigned bis position. But
that is exactly what St John wanted.
nr. Winder saw this and was dead
n to Mr. St. John's game. Could
the latter have foroed his resigna
tion, he would have had verytbing
in his bauds- The General Managei
however, saw that everything was
going his way, and so kept "uiet"
If the stockholders' meeting should
result, as many think it will, in the
defeat of the .-it John faction and
the rise of Mr Winder to tbe Vice
presidency, the Bea board would
become immensely popular. Mr
vVinder is a man of magnetic power
and from one end of tbe Seaboard to
i be other be is extremely popular.
The love of the great mass of Sea
board employees for their General
danager amounts almost to idolism
