Hun. Chas. M. Stedman, Lieut,
(ioveruor of North Carolina from
1881 to 18S8, is iu the city and what
is more has decided to make this
place his home iii the future. Col.
Steadman hns been residing in At

cing his profession, the law, and has
beeu'very successful, butthe colonel
is a native North Carolinian and no
matter how successful, he has yearned
for the State of his nativity. This
has grown upon him until it has be

Greensboro is glad to have him cast
his lot among us, hopingthathe will

Hillsboro street has grow n very
popular of late asa bicycle thorough

it every afternoon. The riders and
various vehicles have come to be so
thick that it is feared that collisions.

been very properly made that the
bicycle riders lake one side of the
street, say the North side, and the
buggies and other vehicles the
other. We think this is avery good
-suggestion and may possibly avoid
a bad accident by the smaller ve
hicles coming in contact with the
large.
