Boom up the proposed new hotel. Talk about it, work for it, write for it. See advertisement of lot of dry pine wood and shingles for sale. AH danger of frost seems to have passed, and the prospects for a good fruit crop are excellent. "There is no such word ah fall.'' Let these be the watchwords in con nection with our electric street rail way. The woods now present a most beautiful appearance and an after noon ramble is a treat. Mr. Geo. Shellem the Wake County trucker had the flreshest cabbages in market this morning. His lettuce and radishes were very nice. After the municipal election will come the Wake County Cattle Show Let us make it a grand success. Call on Mayor Thompson and sub scribe for some of the street railway bonds. Our best financiers consider them a good investment. Secretary J. T. Patrick, of the Southern Inter State Immigration Bureau has gone to his home at Pine Bluff, on account of sickness. The city today is literally packed with Chapel Hill and Wake Forest students all bent on victory at the base ball match game this afternoon The parsonage of the Church of the Good Shepherd is being repaired and will be made a most beautiful resi dence. The hotel at Morehead will be run the coming season by the Foster Bros This will ensure a grand success for the season. Our genial clerk of the Superior Court reports that he is having an unusually quiet time today. He will have to hustle around again nexi Monday morning when court reas aembles. The selection of General W. R. Cox as the orator for Memoiial day, is a splendid one. The subject will be "Memoirs of General Rainseur" and It will be handled in a masterly man ner. The Railroad Commissioners y ester day fixed the rate for passengers over the different roads of the State at 8i cents ptr mile for first class and 2f cents per mile for second class. In view of the primary meetings in the different wards next Monday night, there is much caucusing going on today. All the candidates seem hopeful. Somebody will be disap pointed, but such things will happen and can't well be avoided. There is a family in Raleigh that has a colored female domestic who has been continucusly with them for thirty six years. The mother of the servant served the previous genera tion of the family for about seventy years. Inducements of the most flat taring kind failed to cause them to change their service. Such attach ments are indeed rare. We hope that none of our people will indulge dn "the flattering unc tion" that even if the present oppor t unity should be lost, the Raleigh street railway will be built anyhow. Remember that "a bird in the hand is worth two in a bush." Let the present opportunity be pushed, as we t re now conuueui mvm oe. I Receipts of cotton today have been rather small.

The receipts of cotton for the season in Kaleigu up to April asra, nave been 35,742 bales against 20,485, last year an increase of 15,257 bales.

Bishop of North Carolina will admin ister the Apostolic rite of Confirma" tion at Christ Church', tomorrow morning, in the atternoon the Bish op will make a visitation at St. Ma ry's.
