The Locating Committee. The committee to locate the Bap tist Female College, are busy today looking at tbe different sites that have been recommended to them.

A moBt distressing suicide took place at Horner's school in Oxford t yesterday. We give the following'. particulars so far as we have been ' able to gather them: About 11 o'clock in the niorniDg ! Cadet David W. Cowles, son of Hon. W. H. H. Coles, shot and killed him self with a thirty-two calibre Smith and Wesson pistol. Being officer of the day, he had called the roll a! usual, and was at recitation the first hour. About 11 o'clock Capt. Drewry went into his room and found the young man lying across the bed, dead; the pistol was between his legs. There ia some diversity of opinion as to whether the sad event was acci dental or the result of design. Young Cowles had been in somewhat bad health for some time and subject ' to attacks of melancholia. He was ' i only eighteen years of age and very popular with his associates. A com-! niittee left yesterday afternoon for Wilkesboro, the home of His parent?, ' with the remains. The Visitor extends its he; rt-felt sympathy to the bereaved family in their sad affliction. later. Dr. Marsh, of Oxford, is in the city to-day. Speaking of the sad affair, he says that it was no doubt a case of suicide, but it could not well be ac counted for. Mr. Cowles was a most exemplary young man, and had been chosen debater for the coming com mencement. A short time since he made a visit to his parents in Wash ington City, and on his return seemed in fine spirits. Meeting ol the Executive Com mittee of the Agricultural and Mechanical College. A very important meeting of the Executive Committee of the Agricul tural and Mechanical College, took place yesterday at the Experiment Station. The following were pres ent: W. S. Primrose, chairman; Col. W. F. Green and N. B. Broughton, Esq. The election of an agriculturist for the station was postponed until a called meeting on the 1st of May. This meeting will also decide upon plans for the mechanical department of the college. The plans prepared by Prof. Kinealy, will be adopted. The proposition is to erect a building costing $7,500, which will be two stories with dimensions 84x33 feet, and including a wing 37x35 feet. The work will be commenced at the earliest practicable time and will be completed by the coming fall. The contract will be 1 et at the May meet ing. It has been thought best to change the tim of commencement of the college from the 25th to the 18th of June, and the proposition will proba bly be adopted. It has been decided that all the books belonging to the State Geolog ical department should be turned over to the college, and also a portion of the library of the State chemist. At noon yesterday, the committee were handsomly entertained at the College by a dinner, gotten up by Mr Hubbard, the Steward, in his best style, and he knows just how to fix up for the inner man. It goes with out saying that it was highly en joyed. Don't Fail To see the opening of millinery at Swindell's next Friday. We want you to see what we are really doing in millinery and dress goods. We can undoubtedly sell these two lines of goods much cheaper than anybody else in Raleigh and give nothing but the correct styles? also in clothing it is as much to your interest to see our stock as it is to our interest to have you Bee them, if you are going to buy a suit for yourself or for your boy; be cause you can buy them at Swindell's much cheaper than you can anywhere else. The business at Swindell's Racket Store has not grown in popu lar favor so rapidly without a cause. Why are we doing mere business than any other store in Raleigh?

Correspondence of the Visitor. Waks Forest, April 8, '90. Last night, as Mr W Oscar Riddick, a student was returning from the Falls of Neuse, he was suddenly at tacked by a body of six or eight masked men who demanded his money t.nd jewelry. The former supply was very limited, and by great presence of mind he loosed his watch and dropped it in the bottom of the buggy, where it escaped the notice of the bold robbers. Every one is very much stirred up, as this is the first outrage of this kind ever perpetrated 'n this quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The robbery was committed about three miles from here, near Major Crenshaw's residence, and the bold ness and daring of the deed added much to the sensation. C B, E. SPECIAL NOTICES.
