Loan Association.
On Saturday night last, a local
board of the Old Dominion Building
and Loan Association, of Richmond
Va, was organized in this city. The
following officers were elected:
President, Dr V E Tamer; Vice

and Treasury, F T Ward. Directors
Messrs C B Edwards, A Q Holladay,
W H Hollaway, Wm Cram and John
Ward. Attorney, C M Busbee, Esq,
Improved Butter.
Very careful calculations s"how that
during the year ending September
30th. 1888. 53.317 pounds of butter
were brought to Raleigh from points
outside of the State. Nearly twenty
seven tons were tnus imported into
one city in a year. There must have
been during the year hundreds of
tons bought by our people from with
out the State. There is great need
for home production to supply our
own demands. The Experiment Sta
tion proposes to foster the dairy in
duttry and aid in its development, so
we will not need to purchase from
abroad. Of the above amount 35,060
pounds were used here in the fall and
winter months, 18,257 pounds in the
spring and summer months. By the
aid of ensilage it will be possible to
feed economically in the winter
months, and to supply the large
need at that time. The Experiment
Station will commence interesting
experiments in this line. H B Battle,
Keep Up The Interest.
The soliciting committee for the 4th
of July report most encouraging pro
gress, and, it is now' assured that if
the different railroads will aid in the
matter of cheap rates, v e will have a
celebration, of which all our people
may well be proud, It has been sev
eral years since Raleigh has bad such
a celebration as should be expected
of the Capital of the State, but now
there seems to be special interest
manifested on all sides, and we may
look for a fine time. It is the inten
tion of the committee of arrange
ments to see to it that the display of
fire works shall be in all respects a
grand success. Nothing now seems
to be lacking but a co operation of
the railroads.and surely there should
be no difficulty on that score. The
joint committee will meet tonight,and
we most sincerely hope that there
will be a perfect understanding bo
that everything can be perfected.The
people are now ripe for a glorious
celebration of the birthdav of nnr
nation and they intend to have it if
no-jM- Keen ud the interest.

gone to Tennessee, uoin oi tnese
young gentlemen will make that State

Mrs h Branson left tins morning

ness.
Rev Dr Durham returned last even
ing from Olive Chapel where he
preached the dedication sermon on
yesterday. He says it is one of the
prettiest country churches he has
seen. A large congregation was in
attendance. The church is out of
debt and Las bright prospects for fu
ture usefulness. This handsome
church was built by Mr J B Masse
more, who is now foreman of Thomas
H Briggs, contractor and builder.
Mr Hal Ayer went down to More
head City today with the teachers to
represent the State Chronicle during
the Assembly. Mr Ayer is a most en
ergetic journalist, and will doubtless
give the public a most admirable ac
count of the proceedings. We wish
him an enjoyable time.
The Churches Yesterday
At the Baptist Tabernacle Church
Sunday school there was a large at
tendance and the Interest is increas
ing. There were nine new scholars,
A committee was appointed; to ar
range for a Demorest medal contest
to take place in the near future
These contests are, in our opinion
very htlpful and interesting. Rev
Dr J J Hall preached very able ser
mons, both morning and evening, to
large audiences. At the morning ser
vice three members were received
into the church, one by letter and
two by experience and baptism. This
church has a constant and steady
growth, we are glad to say, under the
ministry of Dr Hall.
At Edenton StreetMethodist church
the pastor, Rev Dr J H Cordon,
preached fine sermons, morning and
night. Thdre were large congrega
tions.
The congregation at the First Bap
tist church was unusually large, and
RevDr J W Carter preached two
able sermons, morning and night.
At the First Presbyterian church
Rev Dr J S Watkins preached with
his usual power to a large congrega
tion, in the morning and evening.
At the Christian church Rev J L
Foster preached to large congrega
tions, morning and night.
Rev Dr L L Nash delivered two
fine discourses at the Central M E
Church to large congregations.
At Christ Church and the Church
of the Good Shepherd the usual im
pressive services were held.
Several Precedents.
Ex-Governor, Curtis H Brogden is
one of the census enumerators for
Wayne county. The Ex-Governor
seems to be following in the footsteps
of several illustrious gentlemen. For
instance; John Quincy Adams held
several minor offices after his retire
ment from the Presidency. President
Tyler, after bis term of office expired
creditably filled the position of over
seer of roads for Charles City County,
Va,and, if we remember right, our
distinguished fellow citizen, Hon Geo
E Badger, after having been Secre
tary of the Navy and United States
Senator, served his people as a Jus
tice of the County Court of Wake.
