C, MARCH 20, 1891. AN AUDITORIUM. ' The subject of an auditorium for Raleigh has been referred to several times In the columns of the Visitor, but its importance justifies frequent reference to it. A town or city s without a suffl eent auditorium to accommo date a reasonable proportion of its population fails in an important pub lic matter. It is the duty of the pub lic to provide such necessary things as are not for the use of the individ ual singly or of the family as such but for the public, without regard to class or combination. Raleigh in this particular reminds us of a primitive character who lived in Central Virginia and raised a large family of children, but who never re garded ' himself just exactly able to enlarge his table. When he was mar ried and began housekeeping he got a sqtiare table just large enough for himself and wife, but it would ac commodate two others. His family grew till the other seats "were taken, and then grew till one, then two, then three would have to wait at each meal for some1 6ne to get through. Then a second table full was organ ized, and then a third .had to wait. This was very monotonous to those that had to wait for the third table. But the old gentleman just became used to it as his family; grew and never fully appreciated the necessity for a larger table and never realized how hide It Is for all the family to gather around the family table at once. Dozens of towns and cities are just like that good old gentlemen's fam ily. If anything comes along that all want to see or hear a great lecturer, or a great evangelist why the larg est building is selected of course, and then the people go and pack them selves in till no more can get in, then those that are but will go away and wait till next time. Raleigh should have an auditorium sufficient to seat a reasonable portion of her popula tion. When there is no second and third table it becomes exceedingly monotonous to walk up to the door and jfind that there is not standing room left. The table should be en larged at once. Around the World on Bicycles. ft As$.t i&Tps, March 17. Eugene E. Stevens and George D. Mitchell, two young attorneys of this city, and the latter a son of Ex-Senator Mitch WjlWnla, ''-Wfll 'start about the middle of May on a bicycle tour larWmd'the wdrld. They' spent four -months on a similar excursion Ifroh seven countries bf Western Europe in 1889, and were so pleased witn this' method of seeing the coun try that they intend now to extend their trip around the world. No strict itinerary has been laid out, but 'he bibcie tour proper will begin at Cork and extend through Ireland, ' Wales, England, Frahce.S wit zerland, the Tyrol, Turkey, Greece, Asia, Minor and Palestine to Egypt. From this lpoii their plans'are purposely 4 left indefinite, but the tour will prob ably, include also India, Ceylon and .'Australia, and will occupy a year or more altogether. The vonne men 1 " m will be provided with a Eodac camera 'and will furnish correspondence to a eyndjcate of American papers. . WANTED 10 SEE the SKELETON. A Granger Finds the Remains of Ills Wayward Boy In a Doctor's Closet. Philadelphia Telegraph. "Every family is supposed to have a skeleton in its closet," remarked Dr. Wheeler, of Wichita, Kan., to a party of friends recently. "I had one in my closet until I shipped it to the Michigan state uni versify. I don't want to see it again. "It happened like this: Many years ago, wnen i commenced trie practice of medicine in a small Mis souri town, the Jesse James boys paid us a visit. They raided the bank and got away with $6,000, but firing was pretty general on both sides. I had a revolver, and during the general ex citement I shot one of the robbers. He was dead when we picked him up. A finer specimen of physical man hood I have never seen. The natives in the little Missouri village made no objection when I claimed the youth's skeleton as my prize. "One rainy night about 11 o'clock s genuine old fashioned frontiersman came to my office. He asked my name, then inquired if I had a skelet ton in my closet. His face was beard ed and s unburnt, but there was some thing about him that made me think of the young man I had killed many years before. I was alone in the office, and I didn't like the color of the visi tor's eve. However, I answered his question in the affirmative. " 'Let me see the skeleton ? said my queer visitor." "It would scarcely do to refuse. I walked to the rear of the office, where there was a small table out of sight of my visitor. I drew out from the desk a revolver, the same one that had ended the career of the youthful bandit years before. Holding it in my hand, I stepped to the closet, threw open the door and remarked with as much coolness as I could com mand by force of will; 'There is the skeleton!' " 'Put up your revolver,' remarked the stranger. 'I won't hurt you. If I had wanted to shoot you I would have killed you when I came into the office. I have just been down in Okla homa and am on my way back to Tennessee. I heard the story of your killing one of the ga, and as near as I can make out it was my boy that was killed. He ran away from home when only 13 years old, and I never saw him after that. I don't hold any grudge against you. You did what was right, I suppose. But I thought I woul.l take this chance to see what is left of the poor boy. "I then showed the stranger the skeleton, which was handsomely mounted, and described the raid as briefly and as gently as possible. The old pioneer's only remark, as he gazed upon all that was left of his boy, was: 'Well, he was a big fellow. wasn't he ?" Children Cry for Pitcher's Castorla. When Baby was sick, tre gave her Castorla. When she was a Child, she cried for Castorla, When she became Miss, the clang to Castorla, When she had Children, she gave them Castorla. There are now under vine culture in America 400,000 acres, of which about 800,000 are bearing. The esti mated value of the vineyards and wine cellars is $155,000,000. The largest sheep ranch in the world is in the counties of Webb and Dimnet, in Texas. It contains up ward of 400,000 acres, and yearly pas tures 800,000 sheep.
