Farmers Alliance." An excursion
train will he run from Raleigh to
Weldon returning the same day.

the Fair to see the Fair.
Look at our advertising columns
and then say whether you think you
can get along without printers' ink,
IS very one of our advertisers will bear
testimony to the benefits of adver

Let the people of Raleigh extend a
most cordial welcome to all who come
next week. Our reputation is at stake.
Let us show to the people of North
Carolina that Raleigh knows how to
extend the hand of welcome.
We invite attention to the adver
tisement of Messrs N. Deboys & Co.,
who announce that they are prepared
to do the best and most artistic work
in the bakery business. They make
wedding cakes a specialty. There is
no better establishment of the kind
in the State. Call and see for your
selves.
We just wish that some of the brag
gers of the provincial towns could
have stood on Fayetteville street to
day and seen the enormous quantity
of cotton coming in. A long proces
sion of wagons all loaded down with
the staple. It would have made some
of our provincial town residents
change their countenance from a
'broad' grin" to a "quaker serious
nesB." Hurrah for Raleigh.

A Valuable Catalogue.
We are glad to note that the new
catalogue of the members of the Dia
lectic Society, University of North
Carolina, 1795 1890, is now out. It
contains one hundred and sixty nine
pages full of the greatest interest.
Among the contents are: Full page
engraving of the Hall, sketches of
the Societies History, by President
Lewis, Hon. R. H. Battle, Dr. W. B.
Phillips and E P. Manguni;catalogue
of all the members arranged by year
of entrance, with brief facts about
each meiuber.rolls of the Confederate
dead, of both Societies; alphabetical
index of names, etc. Copies of the
book can be obtained from the burser

Praise Service.
The interest in Prof. Wood's teach
ing and training in vocal music at the
Baptist Tabernacle increases every
night. There were about 200 present
last night, and they expressed them
selves as greatly delighted. The class
met ts again tonight at 7:t'0 o'clock.
On Sunday night Prof. Wood will
conduct a praise Service in the audi
ence room at hich time the singing
will be sustained by the whole class,
led by a cornet, piano, organ and vio
lin, the same as is used there every
night.
Parents are at fault in not having
their children take advantage of this
extraordinary opportunity for being
trained in vocal music.
Attractions at the State Fair.

real merit, arrived yesterday uiorn
iDg in full force. The Japs are: M.

adjoining the main exhibition hall.
The interior will be profusely deco

cial rates to schools, etc. All minis
ters will receive complimentary tick
ets by addressing, E. Mozart, mana
ger Japanese Village.
This is no side show, but from par
ties who have seen it, say it is an ex
act; representation of a Japanese vil
lage in Japan, including a perform
ance of high merit. They have also
with them and will be on exhibition
a genuine Japanese poodle, five years
old, weighing six pounds and valued
at $5,000, said to be the only dog of
its breed ever allowed to leave Japan
by the Mikado. This show is ore of
real merit and will be one of the most
interesting features or the State fair.
We hope all will see it.
Citizens, visitors, and in fact, the
whole State if desired can visit old
man Schwartz and see for themselves
the splendid supply of beef, pork,
mutton and everything else in the
meat line, he is offering to the public.
It is a rare treat to see the old man's
delicacies, which are unsurpassed, not
only in Raleigh but in the South.

i'rom Sire to Son.
The Chicago Inter- Ocean t;ives t he
following plot of Milton Nobles great
play:
That Mr. Milton Nobles is u man f
uiore than ordinary versatile talents '
has long been conceded. For several j
ears he has enjoyed popularity iu
eccentric comedy dramas of his own
writing, and has shown a disposition
to improve the quality of the v.ok,
both as player and writer. He bus
reached a plane, iu his last play,
"From Sire to Son," that must en
title him to more respect than many
of its casual critics have sevn tit to
accord him in the past. This play is
not only the Lest work of the author,
but it is work of a quality to indicate
yet greater po6tibilities with this par
ticularly ambitious dramatist. Mr.
Nobles is a clever man and a thorough
ly experienced actor, and what effects
aud incidents are ia themselves ah
sur.l have been given ingeniously a
logical and consistent seeming. The
play is very skilfully constructed, and
in the treatment there is an air of
probability given to the most incredi
ble conditions and combination of
events. Moreover, the story is inter
esting, has novelty, and is relieved by
an agreeable sort of comedy that
arises naturally ami easily out of the
6cenes and as a cognate part of the
whole. Nothing is deliberately drag
ged in for the mere purpose of provid
ing a comic episode. The whole play,
whatever its other defect-", is homo
geneous, complete, harmonious. It is
enough to know that the plot is base 1
on a murder, followed by the usurpa
tion of property and family relations
by the murderer, who is, of course,
the villain of the p ay. Mr. Nobles
has treated this act unjquely, and,
generally, in a very clever manner.
The first act occurs in a mining town
in California, aud is romantically con
ducted. We see nothing of the con
ventional types of the familiar West
ern play, and it may be objected that
the author has given too much re
finement and "gift of speech" to
several of his characters; but that
is a small matter compared with the
daring originality of haying all the
characters, including the sheriff,meet
in Venice four months later in regu
lation evening toilet. This is done
for a dramatic purpose, however, and
the purpose is well met. The audi
ence very enthusiastically commend
ed the play, and we believe Mr.
Nobles has in his last play a valuable
piece of property. The coin pa y is
superior to any Mr. Nobles has evr
before had surrounding him.

Martin, a prominent business man of

today by a woman calling herself
Mrs. Clarence O. Martin. She asserts
that Clarence Martin married her its
Texas, several years ago. She has

returned today and made some de
mands upon Edward, which he re

shot him. The woman is in jail here
