Splendid rain this morning, much to the delight of gardeners and truck 8 ten. Barbecues seem to be Id order. There were two yesterday, and more to come off in the near future. All reports from the surrounding country are to the effect that the ap pie and fruit crop will be excellent. The county commissioners went out to the poor house today on their usual inspecting tour. A matoh game of base ball will take place between the Natijnal and Oak City clubs on Thursday next at Athletic Park. At the mun'cipal election in Dur ham, a proposition to build a $25,000 graded school house was carried by a good majority. The market today was well supplied with lamb and other meats. The vegetable department was tempting especially in the way of strawberries and green peas. There were 183 votes cast for Alder men in the First ward yesterday. Yet the candidates only received 182 votes each How is it accounted for? A i-hromo for the first correct answer outside of the poll holders. There were seven divorces granted at the civil term of Wake Superior Court just adjourned. Who says we are not abreast of the times. All colored, however.

There will be an important meet ing of all the committees of the King's Daughters tonight at 8 o'clock in the Sunday school room of Edenton street church. The object is to pre pare for the convention. A prompt attendance is desired. The rescii.ding of the order to wi den North Salisbury street which was passed by the retiring board of aldermen this morning, is much to be regretted. This street 1b the main thoroughfare to the new Johnson St. Station, and' in its present narrow condition is almost impassible, as it is not wide enough for the passage of vehicles meeting. We hope the new board will consummate the original order. Notice to the King's Daughters. Tonight st 8 o'clock, in Edenton Street Methodist Sunday School Room, there will e a very important meeting of all the committees appoin ted for the purpose of making ar rangements for the convention. As the time for the meeting is now close at hand, it is earnestly hoped thatve ry member of the various committees will be present tonight. By order of the Chairman of the Executive Committee. Fire. An alarm of fire was sounded be tween 8 and 4 o'clock this afternoon caused from the burning of the sec ond story of the premises occupied by Mr. Cecil 6h Stone, on Fayette ville street. For a time it was found very difficult to reach the fire as it was confined between the roof of the house and the ceiling. The firemen worked faithfully and finally sub dued what at one time it was feared would prove a most extensive confla gration. There was great excitement on the street, and some of the merchants in the vicinity of the fire moved out their effects. Had the fire broken out in the night it might have been very destructive.

It purifies the blood, strengthens and builds up the system, prevents dis ease, aids digestion, cures dyspepsia, chronic headache, neuralgia, rheuma tism and other blood and skin diseas es. Try it.
