Nearly every family in Raleigh will need something for the Christmas holidays and by lookiDg through the columns of the Visitor the best bargains cac be secured. Subscribe at once. Let every business man who hap holiday goods to sell, remember the VlsTOR is a household institution in Raleigh. It goes to a large majority of the homes of our people and hence when anything is desired in the way of purchases, its columns are largely perused. The success of the Visitor as an advertising medium is conceded on all sides. Try it: it never fail? to meet just expectations. Unusual Gentlemen composing the new ad ministration of affairs at the County Court House, represent to a consider able extent, the maimed soldiers of the State.

He leaves nine song and a daughter to mourn their loss. The funeral ser vices will be held from the Baptist Tabernacle tomorrow- morning at 11 o deck. I'itiiiniore, Richmond, Petersburg aud Norfolk papers please copy. The Holidays. Already do we hear of preparations for the coming Christmas holidays, and it looks as if the season will be more generally enjoyed than for many years. It has been a long time since our people have been so full handed in money matters, as no, and uence the little ones, and grown folks too, may reasonably look for good old times. We have been bless ed in the shape of crops beyond all reasonable expectation end everybody ought to be happy. To meet the de mands upon them, our merchants are purchasing he ivily, and if they pur sue a judicious system of advertising," thev will realize the most encourag ing returns. In this connection we simply want to say, that the Visitor goes into nearly every household in Raleigh, and it certainly is read by more persons than any other journal published in Raleigh This being so, there cannot be a better medium through which to make known what merchants have for sale., and there certainly is not a surer medium to reach the ears of parents and guar diens in whom the purchasing power for the children is lodged. It will be to the interest therefore,of merchants generally to U6e our columns, it will prove mutually remunerative, ISauk in Trouble. Rumors effecting the Keystone National Bank, day before yesterday, caused a run upon it. lhe bank may survive it, but could not do so likely, but for the fact that the city' of Phil adelphia, which is a depositor with a balance in its favor of $400,000, al lows its deposits to remain. Personal Mention. Mr. B. I. Powell of Henderson is in town. His mission is a a silken one. Hon Jno T. Patrick is iu town making things lively in the interest of the Ashevilie Convention. 1 Prof. T. Wood from Pine Bluff is ia the city. He speaks in glowing terms of the heatbfulness of that place. Rev. Mr. Clark, who thas been for sometime rector of the church of the Good Shepherd in this city, left yes terday for Fredericksburg, Va., with his fiinily, where he will assume charge of the Episcopal Church. He leaves' many warm friends in Raleigh. Prof. Nye the optician has his of flee on the first floor of the Florence Hotel. All orders promptly attended to. OurNew Depot. The Visitor does not desire to be considered unreasonably captious.but there are times when our duty to the public requires that we should call at tention to what may be considered a dilatory mode of procedure. In this matter of a new Union Depot.the peo ple of Raleigh for a long time have been on the tip toe of expectation, hoping that matters would take such a turn as to give hope of an early consummation of this cherished ob ject. But delay hasfollowed delay until now,it looks as if another spring will find us as sadly in need of proper depot facilities as for years past. This should not be if it can possibly be avoided. In other matters we are having what may be termed a genu ine boom. The electric street rail way is assured. One cotton factory is in successful operation and one or more others are in contemplation. Our merchants are handling more freight than for years past, and the cotton receipts bid fair to run up to 30,000 or 40100 bales. To handle the incoming and outgoing freight we have but a poor excuse of storage ac commodations, and unless the new depot is built and ready for use the spring trade will find us in t he same old rut. Can't this busmess be hur ried up a little. If there is any hitch let it be untangled and work com menced at once. There is no time to lose if it can be avoided. The North Side Land Company. The "North Side land Company" has been organized to develop the property of the Brigg's estate and Wcmble tract adjoining. This is cer tainly the prettiest part of the City of Oaks, and the buildiDg of resi dences has been almost exclusively confined tolhis section. New h-mses are being built within stone's throw of the above property. These lots are undoubtedly the most desirable to be had in Raigh. The property, as every Raleighite knows, is in close proximity to Peace Institute, Murphy Graded School and Brookside Park, in fact 'tis the most beautiful suburb of our graving city. Lots within a block of this property have never sold for less than $600 to $t,600; The North Side Land Company have put these on the market at $225 in easy payments. In our opinion every in vestor will in a short time double his money. The Briggs property is dot ted with beautiful oaks. Almost every lot is ready for its building without any grading. Wide beauti ful streets will be graded. 4 venues running east and west have been named Oakdale, Briggs, Wake and Mordecai. These lots are being taken rapidly, a number already told: if you want one you must speak quick. Mr. J. A. Jones is President of the Com pany, Mr. C. M. Hawkins, Vice Presi dent, and Mr. T. P. Jerman, Jr., Secretary and Treasurer.

Silk Umbrellas Dil you ever think what a nice present a handsome Umbrella would be to give on Christmas ? Its a ser ; viceable as well as an appropria' j one for lady or gentleman. Some years ago Silk Umbrellas weie quite expen sive and not eo generally in use as now. The cost i f a very line one now is not more than you would expect to give as a present to any one. You have quite a large line of styles qualities and prices to select from now, and the idea is where would you be most likely to find the b"6t and prettiest assortment and for the least money. The price of auy article to everyone is some importance, for it is a fact long since acknowledged by all, that the same goods are not al v aysoldat the same figures by all merchants. There are as many prices for any same article as there is qualities of silk. Now what you want is to find where the lowest price o any article is charged, and there is the place to buy. We have the S Ik Umbrellas iu all styles, at prices that you will find oul y at Swindell's. A Cultured Appetite. Westchester Local News.
