LAR8XBT ClTT CIRCULATION. In and Around the City. Who is he? Still heating. Another Mun'us" come to judg ment. Some of our merchants are already beginning to clean up for fall oods. A few days more and the first bale of cotton may be expected. Political rattling among the dry bones. Boom up the fair and let us have the best yet. Large, shipments of grapes continue from this vicinity. Mind how you throw water melon rinds on the pavements. Mayor Thompson is getting mad about it. And now the Farmer s Alliance pro pose to obtain a site for a $23,000 fac tory by the 15th inst. Collections in this, the Fourth In ternal Revenue District for the month of July were $76,089.21. No abatement in the number of watermelons and cantaloupes. Their name is "legion," and prices way down. Remember that the sermon of Rev, J. J. Hall, at the Baptist Tabernacle tomorrow night, will be particularly for the working people. Let all at tend. Rev. J. W. Carter. R. v. J. J. Hall and several others vent out today to Wake Union Baptist Chuoh to partic ipate in the celebration of its centen nial. Messrs. Jones Powell have in their ice cellar some of the finet ter melons yet seen in Raleigh this season. They are simply splendid. Call and get some for tomorrow. The last will and testament of Wra Underhill. deceased vaS admitted to probate today before Judge C. D TJpchurch, James D. Uunderhill ex ecutor under the will. Quite a goodly number of our peo pie went down to Morehead today, Among, them were Oapt. Smirh, SU' perintendent Raleigh Sc Augusta Air Line, Dr. G. W. Blacknall, Fred HaT bel, Esq., and others. Mr. S W. Whiting sent seventy- three pounds of choice grapes from his private vineyard to the Mt. Holly Grape Fair and received over 20c per pound in premiums. This is a sp'en did showing for an amateur consider ing how young his vines are. We have heard upon the streets that at the election of general mana ger of the Baptist Orphanage, loeat ed at ThomasvillA. which occurred at that institution last Tuesday, there were eleven members of the board of trustees present six voting for and . five against the present incumbent. What's the matter? Governors Guard. At the meeting of the Board of Al dermen last night, a communication 'was read from the Governors Guard asking financial aid towards the main tenance of the company, and setting forth the fact that as they have been compelled by the' State law to adopt the regulation uniform, they must either comply or disband. While the Visitor is not sufficient ly well informed to give any opinion as to the right of the "city to act in the premises, we must express the. most earnest hope ; that nocontin gency will arise making it necessary for the Guard to disband. It would, Indeed, be a sad reflection upon the public spirit of our people. , We hope that if, by any decision, the Board of Aldermen may decline the assistance requested, then the citizens will take the matter in bond and raise the de sired amount by private subscription. It seems to us that it might easily be done. Let us retain the Guard by all means. Shooting. This afternoon about 3.40 o'clock, officer Hogue attempted to arrest a colored man named Junius Jones. who was engaged in a fight on East Hargett street. The negro made such an onslaught on the officer that he was compelled to shoot him, the ball taking effect in his left side. At latest accounts Jones was in a criti cal condition. g, Mr. Furman Betts, who was stand ing near, received a serious wound from the shot in his leg. BATKR. Jones died at 4:30 o'clock. Mail Robbing There seems to be a mania in some portions of the State for mail robbing, several cases having recently come to light. The latest attempt to infringe upon the rights of "Uncle Sam" was at Carthage on last Wednesday. The Carthage Blade says : On yesterday afternoon Mr. W. E Black, our postmaster secured a search warrant and examined the trunk of Mr. Willie P. Stutts, on suspicion that he had robbed the mails. In the trunk was found abundant evi dence ofStutts' guilt, consisting of Registered letter and package envel opes, plain letters, jewelry, drafts, bu tons, ribbons, Sec, sc. lie was pi esent when the search was made, and Mr. Black informed us this morn iug that he confessed his guilt, but as the searchers had no authority to detain him without a U. S. warrant, he left while Commissioner Campbell was issuing the warrant, and he has not yet been apprehended. Irregu larities have been traced to this office for a long time past, and Mr. Black savs he has been suspecting Stutts for more than a month. Stutts was a young man of good address and was thought to bear a high character. He had made himself very popular during his residence of about two years in this town, consequently his downfall was a great shock to our people. Church Services Tomorrow.

The regular monthly meeting of the board of Aldermen was held last night Several monthly reports of com mittees were submitted, after which the light question was taken up and widely discussed. Mayor Thompson said that, Mr. Hawkins had made a proposition to the .light committee, to the effect, that as the Light com pany under the present contract seemed to be losing money, it was suggested that the contract be termi nated August 1st, and that payment should be made since the examination of the power of the lights, as the com mittee had awarded. Mr. Hawkins was anxious that some adjustment should be made. He said that the master not having been arranged, no payments were being made by the citv to the company, and insisted npon an arrangement being made, as the expense in lightning the city, was continually accruing. He asked if it would be satisfactory to the city, if the company would put in a 2,000 candle power machine, instead of the 1,200 candle power machine now used, and indicated that the company would be willing to do this. He sta ted that this power was nominal, not actual. Mr. Hawkins having declin ed to accept the proposition to termi nate the contract, the matter was re ferred to the light committee, to re port at a called meeting. The sewer committee reported that outside connections should be charg ed at the rate of five dollars per an num for twenty five years or fifty dol lars cash. . A petition was presented from the officers of the Governors .Guard ask ing assistance from the city, to main tain their organization. The petition was referred to the finance committee- A resolution was introduced by Al derman Robinson requiring the Rich mond and Danville Railroad to erect a bridge across the railroad at the crossing of Cannon street, suitable for vehicles and pedestrians.; ,The; reso lution was adopted.
