The Initiatory degree will be conferred upon all applicants for membership who present themselves promptly at 7:45 o'clock, .".-iibers of the lodge are earnestly requested to attend. A cordial invitation to all Odd Fellows, Mayor's Court. His Honor and Chief of staff Charley Heartt had an uuusual amount of Suaviter in m;de on hand this morn ing, to which was added no little of ficial dignity. The record book was brought up, and a little after ten o'clock the trouble commenced. Joseph Fosythe for disorderly con duct came up. There were several witnesses examined. Mr. Forsythe took the stand in his own behalf. His honor thought the charges had been proved. Fined $5 and cost. Henry Jones, for being drunk, lined if 5 and cost. Henry Watson, a thirteen year old white boy for using abusive language to Mrs. Mellon Suggs. J. C. L. Harris for the State, and Thos. R. Purnell for the defence. Several witnesses were introduced. The cursing occur red in the back yard of Mrs. Suggs. It seems that Tommy and other children were playing Yankees and Southern ers; t he girls were Yankees and the bojB Southerners. Mrs. Suggs re in onstrated and Tommy told her to hush and let him alone. Other lan guage was attributed to Tomy. Mrs. Walton said Johnny never sung ugly songs. Mrs. Suggs said.hesang them in her presence. Mrs Walton said she lived in a house that Mrs. Suggs claimed. Mrs. Walton said that Mrs. Suggs used bad language before her child. Mrs. Walton said she was not prepared to swear that Tommy did not sing an ugly song in the presence of Mrs. Suggs, but she would have been bound to have heard it if he had. The question of Mrs. Suggs' character was brought up, witnesses swore it was not good. Tommy was put on the stand and g-ave his version of the matter. Said he was playing soldiers. They had coin stalks for guns and green toma toes ior balls. Mrs. Suggs got after them. He told her to hush and let him ttlone. He said he did not sing any wongs except "Johnny get your hair cdf." Did not think that vulgar. Did not curse Mrs. Suggs, (Tommy is a bright little fellow and gave in his evidence without any apparent ex citement) A little girl named Nellie Autry, said that Tommy said if Mrs. Suggs came out there he would break her neck. Did not hear Tommy curse. She was no kin to Mrs. Suggs but lived with her. Tommy said such bad words she did not want to tell it. Never heard him sing such songs be fore. Mrs. Suggs told me about com ing up here, but did not tell me what to say. Stay at Mrs. Suggs' some nights, but some nights don't. A colored witness testified that Tommy was just like other boys, a' little bad sometimes. Sallie Smith knew nothing about Mrs. Scggs' character. Sallie Freeman knew nothing about the character of Mrs. Suggs; knew Tommy, said he was mischievous. Mrs. Walton said she had given Tommy a good whipping. At the conclusion of the evidence Mr. Purnell opened for the defense. During his remarks Mrs. Suggs be came very indignant and threatened to leave the court. She finally recon sidered and sat down. The Mayor dismissed the warrant with an admonition. He thought the whipping giv en by the mother sufficient. Dental Chewing Gum is the best. For sale "wholesale or retail" at D. T. Johnson's.

A few days since we called attention to the fact ;that the post holes dug for the Electric Railway Company, between St. Marys school and the Penitentiary avenue were left open at night, much to the danger of pedes trians. These holes were dug about a week ago, and no posts are yet put in. At night it is impossible to see them as there are no lights beyond Maj Tucker's corner. Why it is that boards are not put over the holes is hard to understand. Surely the Street Car Company are Dot soliciting a law suit, which they would surely have if some person's limbs were broken. There is no excuse for such neglect. A New School. We made mention a few days since of the fact that Rev. M. L. Latta, a ! colored minister, of this city, had ' purchased from Mr. H. E. Litcbfon!, several acres of ground in Oberlia ' I village north west of Raleigh, on j which it is proposed to locate a school I for colored people of both sexes. He j requests us to state that he will soon j I start on a trip, to the northern cities ; j for the purpose of seliciting aid. The Hardware, &c w ATEH COOLERS, Galvanized and Porcelain Linen Advice. Gentlemen of the Street Car Com pany: We mean no harm but just allow a little advice. If it is good, take it, if not don't take it. Always tell a passenger when one of your cars is not expected to run through the line. Don't let him think he is going to a certain place and then uncereino niousiy tell him when he gets about half way, that you can't take him any further. It makes a fellow feel bad and don't do the line any good. Another little suggestion. It would be well to distribute your transfer tickets before reaching the place of transfer. For instance, if a passenger gets on at the Union Depot, politely ask him if he wishes to transfer, and if so, to what line. If he does, give him a transfer ticket. It avoids the trouble of keeping a man with tickets at the end of the line. Don't you see these suggestions are good ? object is success. a good one and we wish it 1 Gone to States villo. Maj. J. W. Wilson, Chairman of the Railroad Commission, Capt. T. W. ! Mason and Secretary H. C. Brown, I left for Statesville yesterday after- , noon to visit the scene of the Bestian j bridge disaster and inspect the N. ; C. Railroad.

Buy your Flour, Meat and Meal of Uzzle. A New Station House. Much bas been said both in conver sation iand in public prints recently about a new and better arranged station house for our city, but so far nothing tangible seems to have come of it. This is a most important mat ter and should receive prompt atten tion at the hands of our City Fathers. The present place for the incarcera tion of offenders against the muni cipal laws, is not at all in keeping with a city the size of Raleigh. It is in all respects unsuited. No man or woman should be allowed to remain over night hemmed up in a room so j detrimental to health as the present station house must necessarily be Of course no reflection is meant on our officials because it is the only resort the law allows them, but surely the , Board of Aldermen ought to remedy the evil, and do so at once. The present station house is not in keep- j Black Berry Wine, Catawba, Peach Orange, Apple Nectarine. See Uzzle & Co., 219, South Wilmington St. SPFX I A i NOTICES.
