The Mayor gave two parties 12 hours etch in the station house to day for being drunk on the streets. For a week or more the electric light at the corner of Person and Polk streets has failed to dispense its lumi nous rays. Why, wherefore ? A large flock of wild geese passed over the city this morning about 8 o'clock. They came from south east erly direction and were heading north. Mr. Phil King, whose death is men tioned elsewhere, was a member of the United Workmen, axi l was in sured for $2,000. His is the first death the order has had in the State.

Several patterns were shown her; finally the gentlemanly clerk turning toward the groom and point ing to the bride said, "your mother here thinks this one the prettiest " The clerk don't understand yet why the lady turned and walked out so eudd . nly. You had better not &y carpet to that yovng man unless you want to fight. The Improvement Club. Our suggestion about the organiza tion of an Improvement Club met a hearty response, and we feel sure that great good will come of it if Mayor Thompson will pick his men and call them together. The Cham ber of Commerce has done very well, but a new organization is needed now. A hotel of modern, broad gauge must be built; the auditorium is a ne cessity! and an electric railway can be had if only fifty of our leadidg men will take hold of it. - A Careless Nurse. Yesterday a girl went into a store on Fayetteville street, leaving a baby sitting in the carriage on the side walk. The carriage began to roll to ward the gutter. The nurse made a start for it, but tco late. Down came carriage, baby and all. The child was thrown a considerable distance in the street, but by aooie means was not hurt in the least. The girl, in the scramble, had her nose skinned. New lot of Corn and Tomatoes at tame prices, lizzie's, 12 East Hargett. Attention Odd Fclows. 8eaton Gales Lodge No. 61, I. 0. O.

The McGibeny Concert Last Night. The concert last night was a splen did entertainment. We understand the St. John's Hospital fund was in creased by about $101.10. Thanks to that noble gentleman, Mr. A. P. Bryan, for securing such an enter tainment for the people and such op portune aid to that noble institution at the same time. Friend Bryan, by the way, is particularly gifted along that line. It seems he is frequently, in a quiet way, doing things of the same sort. Such a man in a comma nity is valuable. But in addition to this Mr. Bryan is one of the solid business men of Raleigh. The express company have long since found that out, as indicated by his continued stay with them. W. H. & R. S.

A little ripple in judicial circles was caused here today by the introduc tion in Justice Barbee's court of pro ceedings looking to the taking of de positions in a somewhat noted case. It will be remembered that fouoe years since, Hon Josiah Turner Jr., of Orange, caus -d proceedings to be instituted in the Superior Court cf that county against Ex Gov. W. W. Holden for alleged false arrest, Mr. Turner being charged with partici pating in the Klu Klux outrages dur ing Gov. Hold en's administration. The case was removed to Chatham county where a judgment was ren dered in Mr. Turner's favor for $8,000. Execution was ordered to issue, and the matter was placed in the hands of an officer for collection who re turned the papers with the endorse ment that no property could be found in the defendant's name. The judg ment has therefore remained unsatis tied. From some cause, of which we are not informed, Mr. Turner, today, caused certain parties to be examined among them Marshall J. B, Hill, Col Shaffer, Mr. G. Rosenthal, Judge E. G. Reade, Mr. 'W. S. Primsrose and others for t he purpose of finding out whether or not certain property can not be levied on to satisfy said judg ment. We have given the matter hurried ly, just as we have been informed The case was occupying the attention of Justice Barbee at the time we go to press. Fuhe- proceedings will probably be given hereafter. The Exposition We do not like to take the position of an alarmist, but unless something vigorous, is done in Raleigh and in Wake County, not only will Raleigh and Wake County suffer loss, but the entire State will be placed at a d is advantage. The, exposition is not going to get itself up and take care of itself, but it will require men and money and effort and perseverance and. a good deal of time to do what is necessary; and unless somebody takes hold at once and gets the thing started it will not go. Other States are now at work preparing to make a grand exhibit at Raleigh, and a num ber of towns are vigorously engaged in the same, one in this State (New Berne) we are glad to see is also get ting up a fine collection of manufac tured fabrics. There is, however, a great deal for Raleigh and Wake County to do beside get up and arrange an exhibit. It will be the duty of the city and county to entertain the thousands and thousands who come. We must feed and lodge them. We must do something vigorous or we will ha"e a shortage of table supplies about that time. Raleigh must make large pro visions for entertaining the people who come. The exposition will be the biggest thing that Raleigh has ever dreamed of, and it will be neces sary for Wake county to help. The legislature failed to do any thing looking to the settlement of northern people among us, so that the other States through their Immigration Commissioners will be apt to carry all interested in buying lands or es tablishing manufactures from North Carolina, unless Raleigh and Wake county can supply the deficiency. Let the county make an appropriation, a liberal one, and let the city do like wise, and let there be a man appoint ed whose business it shall be to see to it that North Carolina be not left. We have added to our business a a nice line of penny cakes. Bakbke & Pope. k Best Cream Cheese at 12 cents at Uzzle's, 12 East Hargett street. sii::ial NOTCES.

We have made a great change which is a matter of vital importance to every person who visits or lives in Raleigh, at least to every one that wants to save money. This great change is in the shape of a great re duction on certain lines of goods that we have made up our mind to sell at the following prices: We will sell you 3 large white handkerchiefs for 5 cents, a large lot of men's wet un dershirts at 20 cents each, worth 40 cents; a big lot of men's white laun dried shirts at 60 cents each, also a big lot of men's 4 ply linen collars 5 cents each.

A most terrific rain and thunder storm pre vailed here last night, overflowing creeks, washing away fences and causing considerable damage to low lands. The farming interests in this county are three weeks behind. The grand jury of Norfolk, Va., is after the Sunday sellers of liquor.and the investigation discloses that the police are not only inefficient in en forcing the law. but are law breakers themselves. Two are under suspen sion for drunkenness. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria; A Suggestion. , Correspondence of the Visitor. The names of a large number of our citizens have been mentioned in con nection with the mayoralty of the city. In order that there may be a fair expression of the sentiments of our people in this matter I would suggest that when the primaries are held that every democratic voter of the city be allowed an opportunity to deposit a ballot with the name of his choice for mayor. By this means the people will indicate to the aldermen elect their wishes in the matter, and the aldermen will bo relieved of a responsible burden and no offence given to any. Voter. Worth of a Human Life. Lexington, Va., March 9. A trial of much interest has been in progress in the Circuit Court here for the last few days John T. Jarman's admin istrator against the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad for $10,000 damages. Mr. Jarman was a brakeman in the employ of the Chesapeake and Ohio Company, and was killed at Goshen, Va., on October 7, 1889, in a collision of two freight trains.
