What Our Reporters See and Hear Worth (Jiving to Our Headers News iu Hrlef t nly a few trivial cases were before Mayor Badger this morning. There is a considerable exodus from the city to the Sea shore and mountains. City taxes should be 11 ted The city clerk or collector Root will at tend to yon. The street railway force are at work this afternoon on Nortii Blount street. See local notices of Uzzle & Co., 219 S. Wilmington street. Peaches are getting more plentiful and of better quality. Prices, how ever, are still too high for the average pocket. We are glad to note the selection of Mr. Chas. R. Park, of this city, as assistant instructor of mechanics in the Agricultural and Mechanical College. The best way to prize out of the dull season is to advertise, and the best medium is the Visitor. There can be no doubt about this matter. The crops are much in the grass caused from the recent wet weather and consequently but few of our country friends visit the city. The can't-get-away club expect to organize in a few days. The grass widowers are getting restless and will soon form a protective association. It has been decided by the North Carolina Press Association to hold the next meeting in Winston August 11th, 12th, and 13th. It is now thought that everything will be ready for the opening of Trinity College at Durham, in Sep tember next. An appreciative audience attended the perform ace of the Imperial Min strels at Metropolitan Hall last night, and all were pleased. It is a splendid company and deserves t uccess Preparations are on foot for another fair in Nash Square for the beneiit of the Soldiers Home. It is a matte: that should appeal to the sympath-. of all our people, and we hope it mas prove a complete success. Mr. J. H. Estill, President Morning News Co., Savannah, Gra., says: A member of my family who has been a martyr to neuralgic headaches for twenty years, has found in Bradycro tine an infallible remedy je24 6t There are entirely too many young boys in this city doing nothing They neither go to school or engage in any kind of employment.The consequence is they get into mischief sometimes resulting in serious consequences. Arrangements are fast progressing for the grand celebration here, on the Fourth of July; we are going to have a splendid time and no mistake. The railroad rates are low and it will be a splendid opportunity for those at a distance to visit the Capital of the State. Let us .have a rousing crowd and an old fashioned celebration. The Railroad Commissioners are busily engaged in the matter of as sessing the various railroad com panies for taxation Yesterday a modification was made in the rates on the Lynchburg and Durham rail road. It is now allowed 3 cents for first class and 3 cents for second class passengers. Don't fail to bear in mind that the great bonanza excursion to Norfolk will leave Raleigh next Tuesday :- Via !U)tli Hint,, at ft npfc muruiugi w "ir" It will D6 tne uboi ouu uiuoi oujuyauie j excursion to the sea-coast yet gotten up. The fare for the round trip will i be only $2.50. Remember that it does not conflict, in any respect with the I celebration in Raleigh. Plenty of water on the train and everything i will be done to render all coin f or j table. The excursion to Abbeville left this morning at 7 o'clock. A number of our citizens took advantage of the occasion to visit the "Land of the Sky." We call attention of our readers to the advertisement of the Island Beach Hotel at the Uammocki. This most de lightful summer hotel is located on the ocean near Wilmington and offers many advantages to the health and pleasure seekers not found else where. And our reasons tor saying this is the following : 1st. The air is pure and healthful. 2d. The fishing is excellent and the sportsman has only to go about 100 yards to enjoy the sport. 3d. The boating is such that chil dren and ladies may go out by them selves in what is knewn as the banks Bound without any danger, as it is protected from the main waters by a bluff. 4th. The bathing is excellent either in still salt water or inside the banks sound, or in the suif amid old ocean's waves. 5th. There are fourteen trains daily to the city of Wilmington, allowing visitors to enjoy all of city life they choose. i. o. u. r. Seaton Gales Lodge meets tonight at eight o'clock sharp. Work in the 3rd degree. Election of officers and other matters of impcrtance to be disposed of. Every member earnestly requested to be present. Candidates for 3rd degree will not fail to present themselves at 8:15 o'clock. Thikm, Sec'y. Shameful. Some person or persons have been guilty of shameful conduct in writing v ith indelible pencil ou the walls of the rotunda of the capitol. Such persons are warned that the Superin tendent of the building will cause the full penalty of the law to be imposed against all such offenders if found out. There can be no excuse for such conduct, and it will not be tolerated. The Minneapolis Excursion. The lowest rates possible have been obtained for all who desire this trip. Oie fare the round trip, taking in Cincinnati, Chicago, St Paul and Minneapolis. The Christian Endeavor Convention meets in Minneapolis July 712. Full particulars at the Richmond and Danville office. Look at This. Raleigh has a population today of about 16G00. The estimated value of real and personal property is over $5,000,000. Capital invested in bank in g $440,000. These banks hold de posits amounting to about $1,000,000. More than 1500 persons employed in industrial pursuits. This is what Raleigh is now. ISot what it propo ses to be in the far distant and un certain future. But if we take a look into the future, we see grand results coming, out of the exposition, the electric street railrc ad, the through line of the Seaboard Air line, Cara leigh mills, &c, These are reasons why an investment in Raleigh sur burb lots is certain to be profitable. At " Idlewild" there is to be an auc tion sale on July 8th. No such op portunity has ever been offered here before, and we hope it will prove a grand success. If our people will in vest in lots and build up houses to accommodate them hundreds of fam ilies will doubtless locate here this fall. And the fact is we .have not houses enough for the folks that are already here. These " Idlewild" lots are large, and beautifully located and no prettier surburb lots need be de sired. The lots already sold by the company are sold to some of our best people. None will be sold to objec tionable people, and this fact insures a good community. Drink Coca cola at J.Hal. Bobbitt's. Another supply just received. A Warning That May Profit. The following, clipped from the Wilmington Messenger, indicates how other people look at the hotel ques tion in Raleigh in connection with the coming Exposition. While we dislike to publish anything of this cast, we feel that our people need greatly to be stirred ou the subject ; then we shall be saved the humilia tion indicated. The Messenger says : 'The people of Raleigh are at last awakening to two things in connec tion with the approaching ln er State Exposition : First, that the hotel accommodation is very small. Second, that the people must open their houses or the crowd will have to camp out under the canopy of the skies. Unless this meagreness of entertainment can be cured and it is widely known that people can find grub and bed the visiting thousands will never come. We hope for tbe sake of Raleigh and the State that ample accommoda tions for all will be found. This ought to have been considered when Raleigh was chosen." The Auditorium Wo hope there may be no impedi ment in the way of erecting a suit able auditorium in the city, and if there should be any seeming difficul ty about the matter, it is the desire of perhaps all our people that it may be overcome. We are aware that there are soma constitutional re strictions which put the matter in a somewhat dubious shape, but still the legal fraternity generally do not think these of such a character as to cause any serious delay. Let the Aldermen and the city authorities put their wits together, and we feel sure some way will be found out of the dilemma, if any exists. We be lieve the only real conflict is the right to run the credit of the city in bonded obligations, without the consent of the Legislature. If the city has cash, however, in our opinion this conflict can be avoided. A little shrewd financiering can find a remedy. Let it be resorted to. The people want the auditorium, they want it badly, and they want it soon. si'K HI, NOTICKN. Lemons, Oranges and Haninas cheap at C. O. Ball & Co s. What is bi tter than Huckleberry Pies ?

As the time of our removal draws near it makes us more anxious to re duce our stock all possible, and to do this we are selling our goods for much less money than any one else is selling them. . Now where is the sense of you going to some other store to trade; if you really knew you would not do so. No longer than yesterday a lady came in our store, looked at our goods and would not buy, but insisted on looking around and go to some other store for it. Well, she went out and bought the very identical goods we showed her and paid nearly as much again money as we wanted for ou goods. She be gan to show us what she had done. First thing she showed was a sateen which she paid 1" cents for. We showed her the same goods and re minded her that we had offered her for 8 cent-. V hen she remembered we had, then she went through all her goods and figured up what sue had lost by not rememborin? o;r prices, lost the snug litt e sum of $9.73. People who do not know dry goods should not, think they do. This lady thought she know all about it. We will move to our new store on FayettevLl e street. August first. D T. Swindk r.L.
