All quiet in police circles today. The woods now look beautiful. Yesterday felt like a midsummer day. Straw hats have put in their ap pearance. The street cars done a good business yesterday. A warm, gentle rain i very much needed. Regular meeting of Win G Hill Lodge, No 218, tonight at 8 o'clock. Visiting members invited. And now the Dukes, of Durham, are thinking about building another cotton factory at that place, with a crpital of $200,000. Reports from the eastern section of the county are all good for the grow ing croDH. There s a fine stand of corn and cotton planting is progress ing with the usual activity. The Superior Court for Wake conn ty convtnes in this city n-xt Monday, Judge MacRae presiding, which will be his last term here. I) P Partin, of Panther Branch township, who was sent to jail some time ago for cost, took the insolvent debtors' oath on last Saturday and was released. R S Smith, of Apex, was iu the city today. He reports the corn planted and com'.ng up with a One stand. Will commence planting cotton next week. Prospects good for this year's crop. A collection for the Thomasville Baptist Orphanage was taken up in the Tabernacle church of this city yesterday morning after the sermon amounting toT$37.90. This collection was taken up after the regular church collection had been taken. Mr M A Parker informs us that last week he planted seventy five acres in cotton, and that th tanners were now planting in earnest The pros pects were never better at this sea son. At a regular meeting of McKee Eu campment No 5 I O O F held on Fri day evening last, Geo L Tonnoffski was elected representative to the Grand Encampment which meets in Wilmington May VI and 14. Rev J J Hall has received an invi tation to deliver .the address at the commencement of Judcon Collge. This is a most admirable selection, and the students and faculty can be congratulated, if Mr Hall accepts. (me of our policemen said yester day, that there had been fewer cases of drunkenness reported daring the past week or so, than he had known for the same length of time since he has been on the force The amount realized at the concert of the King's Daughters was $337.40, of which the special fund of Christ Church received $75; the special fund of the Church of the Good Shepherd $24.40, and St Johns Hospital $40. The balance will be given to the spe cial object of the "Whatsoever'' band. The date for the next mpeting of the North Carolina Press Association has been fixed for July 23d. The Executive Committee will select the place at their meeting in May. Edi tors having preferences should inform the Secretary as soon as possible. All fees must be paid in by July 15th. ' The Visitor would suggest that a o Ttain daj in the week be set apart as a regular sale day at the court house door, for many people would be glad to attend these sales who do not knownsilwhafc dav thev occur. We woulcv"siiggest that Monday of each week be set apart as regular sales day at the court house door. We believe it would be helpful and a great convenience to alj concerned. A Itomantic Marriage. Mr W Charles Mayner, aged 53, was joined in the holy bonds of wedlock this morning to Mrs Eliza J Bowers, aged 48. The ceremony took place near the city limits. Both of the contracting parties are from Morrisville and the marriage was the result of an elopement.ev'nc- ing that even in the meridian of life. The course of true love does not al ways run smooth."' May they live long ard prosper. Personal Mention. FB Arendell, of Sa'isbury, is in the city looking after his business in terests. Mr Alex Hardie is stiil ve.-y sick at his residence on Newberne Avenue. Mr Geo Hardie is quite sick at his residence on Newberne Avenue. Miss Maude Harris has returned from a most delightful trip to the western part of Wake county. Mrs Osborne Holt is very sick at the residence of her daughter, Mrs E E Glenn, on East Martin street. Thomasville Orphanage. Mr J H Mills superintendent of the Thomasville Baptist Orphanage, is in the city in the interest of the institu tion, and we are pleased to kno' that he is meeting with considerable suc cess. Mr Mitls is indefatigable in his attentions to the noble charity over which he presides, and can be con side) ed "the right man in the right place." We most earnestly hope that our people will aid to all the ex tent in their power iu supporting an institution so worthy in all respects There is no class that has better claims on our 6ympaihy than the or phans. General Impression Corrected. There seems to be an impression among many, that Wheeler's cavalry was ir Raleigh during the passage through here of Johnson's army twenty five years ago. This is wrong, Wheeler's c tvalry, so far as we know, was never iu North Carolinaor cer tainly never in this portion of the State. When Johnson's army retreat ed through here in April 1865, Wade Hampton's cavalry protected the rear, while the cavalry of General Kilpat rick closely pressed him, being in the advance of Shermat's army. The sur render of the city was made to Kil patrick, on the Holleman road. The speech surrendering the.city was made by the late Hon Kenneth Rayner, and Kilpatrick replied, promising protection to the inmates of the va rious charitable institutions an I to non-combatants. When Kilpatrick rode up, in reply to the flag of truce, he was introduced to Mr Rayner, whom he said he knew well by repu tation. It was hoped by the com mittee that Gen Blair was in the front and DrJR B Haywood enquired for him, they having be sn classmates at the University. Gen Sherman did not enter the city for some hours after the surrender, and was not present when the unfortunate Texan was hung. The North Carolina depot was not burned by the enemy, but is supposed to have been set on fire by some of Hampton's cavalry. This much for a bit of. history, from one who took notes at the time Our Churches Yesterday. The congregation at Edenton Street M E Church at the 11 o'clock services wera very large. Three persons were received into the church by certifi cates The text of the morning was the 6th chapter of St Mark, and part of the 50th verse; 'Be of good cheerf it is I. be not afraid." Mr Cordon handled his subject well, as he gen erally does, to the satisfaction of all who heard him on this occasion. At the 8 o'clock, p m services the churc i was well filled and the text of the evening was the 12th chapter of St Luke, 10th verse to the 21st inclu sive: "The parable of the foolish mau who proposed to tear down hie old .1 barns and build new ones,. in order to Supreme Court, tore away his products." Ttie Rev j Appeals from the Uth district were gentleman performed his part well, called this morning, and the follow and was listened to with great inter- jnr ca8es argued: est from his large congregation. In fact, the two aertnona, were of the finest order of oratory. ' : ' . . BA.FTIST TABBRJiA.0 K. . The services at the Baptist Taber nacle, were of unusual interest. In the morning ...there) was a large con gregation, and at night the church was crowded to its utmost cAnaeitv extra seats having; been brought in. At the morning service Rev J J: Hall took for his 'text 19th chapter, 1st Kings, part oi lutn verse, xne sub: ject biing "Jtalous for the Lord." The character of the prophet Elijah was dwt It upon and the subject mat ter of the discourse was handled in the eloquent pastor's most masterly aanner. Elijah was one of the most remarkable men who ever lived. He appeared at the time Ahab ruled Israel, who was ruled by his wife and she was rued . by. he ( devil.. The great desire of Elijah was, that pure religion might return and prevail in the land We should be jealous for the name of God. for His Sabbath, for His servants, for His truth, etc. The subject at night was "Fleeing from God,1' and it was handled with great ability The attendance at the Sunday School in the morning was 404. New scholars 12. Good Time. The JEFF Sacred Quartette fur nished the music ffor the Y M C A meeting yesterday afternoon. We had no idea that such a treat was in store for us, but when the young men gave their first song, things woke up They sang four numbers and we just want to emphasize the: fact that those who failed to attend the meeting misled a good thing. All theisongs were good, but we think the s ng of the "Soldier," and the "Roll Call on High'' were two of the best songs we ever heard, and they couldn't have been better rendered. This quartette is formed for the purpose of rendering music on special religious occasions. The meeting was well attended; the chapel room of the Union Mission was two-thirds ..full. The meeting was conducted by W L Hill who gave a splendid address, flia remarks were based on the 15th chapter of Luke, "The Prodigal Son," showing the necessity of a Y M C A to look after the boys, who might be wander ing. Earnest addresses were made by Mr Hardie, agent for the Daily Chronicle, Mr N B Broughton and others. A committee was appointed to arrange for a large mass meeting to be held within the next two weeks. The reorganization of the Y MCA sems to be a sure thing now.

You would without doubt be indignant. Still when you say that you are afraid to buy your goods v here you know you can get them cheaper for fear of making some one mad whom you have been in the habit of trading with, you show that you are weak and to be pitied. What right has any one to demand of you your trade, whether they give you full value or not? The day when buying of cer tain persons fr friendship's sake is past. We had a young lady on last Saturday to look at a hat that was just finishei for a lady in town. She asked the price. We told her $4.50. We never saw any one hate anything so badly. She told us that she bought one the day before that was not neap 8Q pretty or njce an(j payed $5.25 for it. We asked "why did you not come and see our hats before you bought?" She replied that she would have been glad to have bought of us but was afraid that the party she had bought of for some years would be offended. I On that account she paid $1.25 more and did not get so nice a hat as she , would have done had she shown her independence and good judgment Moral Never buy your millinery or dress goods until you look at ours.
