Last Saturday afternoon about 5:80 o'clock a gentleman went into a resi dence on Saunders street and let, his umbrella in the piazza just outside of the door, it raining hard at the time, He remained in the house not exceed ing three minutes when he started out. To his astonishment the froLt gate was wide open and the uinbrei la gone. During his short absence the sneak thief had done the work We hear that several instances cf the kind have happened of late. Look out for the rascals. Capt. Dunn's Death. We briefly noticed a few days since the statement that Capt. E.G. Dunn bad beeri killed near Newport, Tenn The following United Press dispatch from Newport dated the 23d inst. gives the following particulars: "Captain E. C. Dunn was shot and 1 3 1 1 i-w? n l-i 1 o V r m a noup Vioia alvIv morning by W. A. Moore, Jr., p (ton Dunn, son of the murdered miin, then shot and fatally wounded the murderer. ' Young Dunn and Moore quarreled yesterday, and late last night Moore wenttoDuDn's home, armed with a shotgun. CalliDg young Dunn out, Moore said that he had come to kill him.

We cannot too earnestly urge upon our people the necessity of a full turnout at the mass meeting tonight at Metropolitan Hall, suggested by Messrs Alf. A. Thompson and others of the committee. It is one of those occasions that requires the promptest action if we would secure the good results so desired by all. Let it be remembered, that the sum of $10,000 is needed, if the location of the South ern Immigration Bureau is to be in Raleigh. This ij a small sum in com parison with the immense advantages likely to accrue to our city if success should be attained. It must be re membered, too,that whatever is done must be done quickly, as only a day or so remains in which the tender is to be made. The weather tonight will, to all ap pearances be good, and there being no other meeting or amusement in the city, no reason whatever exists why Metropolitan Hall should not be packed to its utmost capacity with the solid men of Raleigh. Let it go forth, that we will spare no pains to secure an object which is well calcu lated to make Raleigh one of the fore most Southern cities. Memorial. It is with feelings of the deepest regret and sympathy that we an nounce the death of Mr. W. E. Erne ry, which sad event occurred at bis home Jn Brooklyn, near our city on Sunday morning at half past fire o'clock, Jan. lUh, 1891, after linger ing long with consumption. Mr Emery for some years has been an employee in the R. & G. R. R, Shops, also a member of the R. R Association It has been our privil ege to visit him during the thirteen months of his sickness and it is with no ordinary feelings we attempt to pay this last tribute to his memory, He was a conductor, and on leaving that position he joined the southern army,a true and faithful soldier. For several years the disease claimed him as its victim. He worked as a car penter in the shops and enjoyed the confidence and respect of all his fel low employees and a large circle of friends. We believe that in the death of our brother of the associa tion ind as a mechanic taken from our midst we feet assured that our loss is his eternal gain. That he has reached his Heavenly home as he of ten talked to us expressing his belief in his Saviour's love and felt his transgressions all forgiven and was resting bis soul, on the Lord. We deposited the mortal remains of our brother in the tomb and now we think of him as an immortal and glorified spirit receiving the reward of a blissful, eternal life which Jesus has prepared for all who trust in Him. To the grief stricken widow and children we tender our profound s ympathy and comr end to them the God of Heaven and Earth who rules all things with'tender soverignty and w ho only can give to the widow and orphan that true and lasting conso lation that they now so sorely need. The funeral took place from Brook lyn church on Monday afternoon the 19th conducted by Dr. L. L. Nash of Central M E Church. His text was, " He that is dead shall live again." It was ably presented to a large con gregation. The rt mains were attend ed by a large concourse of sympathi sing friends to his last resting place in our city cemetery.
