-1 , Che (Euemti VOL JEfc-A-L-EICVa:, ST CJPiO."Y", SEPTEMBER 12, 1891: NO.121 NEWS NOTES ABOUT THE CITY, What Our Reporters Nee and Hear Worth diving to Our Readers New in Brief. Tho rain this morning has eorno wbat retarded painting operations. Now that the summer tourists have nearly all returned, travel over the railroad has falleu off very much. Argument before the commission ers in the Factory Branch Railroad case will be heard next Monday. Only one or two trivial cases en gaged the attention of the mayor to day. A very enjoyable barbecue was given at the farm of Mr. Walter R. Womble, about three miles from the city yesterday. The exposition will be opened with prayer by Rev. Thomas Dixon, of New York, he having accepted an in vitation. Rev. N. H. D. Wilson will preach tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock at Mrs. Sylvester Smith's warehouse, corner Harrington and Cabarrus tits. The arrangement of the exhibit from Wake county, will commence at the exposition grounds next week under the supervision of Mr. Gill. The jury in the case of A. J). Hill for abandoment, which was tried be fore Justice Marcom yesterday after noon.rendered a verdict of not guilty. We hear that the sale of seats for the proposed musical festival to take place daring the exposition, has com meneed, and that orders are coining in from various parts of the State. Business is at a stand still today and news scarce. Very few country people in the city, and all the town folks who can conveniently do so, have been housed up. There will be a meeting of the Board of Health on Monday, Septem ber 14th, at 12 o'clock m.. at the Mayor's office. By order of Dr. James McKee, President. Send in you uimes to the Bureau of Information, if you desire to take boarders during the exposition. Me. A. L. Ferrell or Maj C D Heart:, who are in charge of the matter, wi!.' receive and enter names. The pastor of the Tabernacle ear nestly invites all members of Hi church and congregation to be present on Sunday at the Tabernacle building where the church returns for Wor ship. It seems to be understood that Fred Douglas, the noted colored ora tor, will be here during the exposi tion on invitation of the managers of the colored department. Attention is directed to the adver tisement of Miss Ma;gie Reese, who is daily receiving all the novelties in the millinery line. These will be of fered to the public on as reasonable terms as can be had in North Oaro lina. Call at her emporium of fash ion and see her splendid stock. It should not be lost sight of that the Trustees of the Colored Agricul tural and Mechanical College will meet in this city, on October 15th, at which time definite action will be taken upon the location of the Insti tution. In the meantime we hope the citizens of Raleigh will respond liberally, so that we can secure the site beyond doubt. Attention iB directed to the adver tisement of Mr. T. W. Blake, jeweler, 117 Fayetteville street, who carries a fine stock of jewelry, and makes a specialty of spectacles, American watches &c. In the matter of re pairing he stands justly high, and all who entrust him with their business, can rest assured it will be done in the neatest, most prompt and reliable manner. "A word to the wise is eufflcisot," but is not always wise to say thai word to one wbo is suffering tne tor tures of a headache. However, al ways risk it and recommend Brady aotine. Sept 0 6t Funeral. We are requested to state that the funeral of the late Mr. Samuel Utley, j wh . died a short time ago, will be preached by Rev. P. T. Harnian, at Holland's church, on Sunday, 19th iust. He w as a prominent Mason and successful fa'tuer, and highly respect ed by all who knew hiiu. A Slander Refuted. A manufacturer uamol Wenoby, from Philadelphia, recently told a reporter of the Chicago Tribune, that he had parehaned 125,000 acres of land in Western North Carolina, for which he could obtain no title, al though he had paid out $60,000. Gov. Holt replies at length to Wenoby's charge, sh wing the lack of founda tion to suttain the statement. It ap appears that Wenoby has misrepre sented the case. Barlow's Minstrel. This splendid troupe performed at Metropolitan Hall last night to a large audience and fully sustained the good reputation that had pro ceded them. The stage settings were grand and beautiful and the different pata most; admirably sustained. It would almost be uojuatto discrim inate where all did so well. The jokes and repartees were all new with nothing savoring of the "chest nut." Taken' altogether it is the best troupe that has visited Raleigh for a long time, and we most cordially com mend it to amusement lovers everywhere. An Explanation. As an art of justice to Mr. Patrick, of the Southern Immigration Bureau, we print the following extract from a kiiter recently written by him: "We are sorry to know that the im pression prevails thit an exorbitant charge is being made to Raleigh busi ness men for space in which to make exhibits at the exposition. No charge has been made or is intended against any business man of Raleigh, except where it is desired to retail from the space occupied, or to exhibit as an agent for non-residents who have contributed nothing towards the ex position. As the business men of Ral-eitc-i have contributod liberally we have thought it but right to give hem some advantage over others, in this way." Hard Labor for Life. Dear friend, you work hard for all the dollars you get and if there is an advantage to be had in s pending your money, you want to know it Now you can get more goods and bet ter goods at Swindell's new store on Fayetteville street, Raleigh, for your hard earned money than anywhere in Raleigh. This mammoth store (larg est store in the State) ispacked with such goods as you need. Shoes.clotb iug, hats, dry goods, carpets, jewelry, perfume and toilet soaps, millinery goods (largest millinery department in Raleigh.) We came to Raleigh three years ago in the Racket store business. You know our business has doubled and thribbled. Why? Because we give goods at popular prices. Come, friend, and see us at D. T. Swindell's new Fayetteville street store, No. 206 the new Racket store. Another War. It looks as if the oyster troubles in the eastern part of the State are about w far from a final settlement as ever, and that during the season we are to have the excitement oi another little war upon us. It seems, from reports, that the surveying boat of Gen. W. G. Lowis has been iired upon by some of the Pamlico county oystermen. Under recent statutes, Gen. I ewis, who is State engineer, has been en gaged in laying off grounds for par ties desiring to entr and possess tracts of ten acres, which the law al lows to every c'tizen to lay claim to that area As this is considered a great outrage to some of the natives, they are rest loss, and seem deter mined to resist. The tiring upon the surveying boat took place a few nights since, the vessel being filled wit h holes.but fortunately no one was hurt, as the crew was below. The rumor is that several hundred of the j oystermen have banded together and . CylUUQ tl 111 111 UQUCIUliunwvu I Gen. Lewis and his force off at all I hazards.

Shedding contiures and rust is doing considerable damage. Open ing very slowly, and picking as yet go ing on at a few places. The .present condition of the State at large is as follows: Cotton 73, corn 87, tobacco 80,-00 reports received representing 00 coun ties. Eastern District Cottou 77, corn 91, tobacco 81.

Tramp Tramp was 'i'iptoo, a rey parrot. and Tiptoo were friends. a blacx and tan non; 'i'iptoo talk d almost all day. At four o'clock every afternoon Tr imp came into the house, waled up to his mistress, looked into her face, and waited patiently until she gave him a piece of money. Tiptoo al ways watched Tramp as he took the money into his mouth. Then, with a shrill shriek, she would call: ''Hal loa, Tramp ! Four o'clock, Tramp , Buy a paper, Tramp ! Herald, Globe, Rekkid ! Oh, ma !" This was a long sentence for Tiptoo, but Tramp always waited for the last word; then he would spring through the open window, bound down the path, across the street, and into a small store. And Tiptoo, watching intently, would cry, as he returned bearing a paper in his mouth, "Tramp's bought a paper ! Oh, my ! Ob, my ! What a funny dog ! One day at four o'clock, Tramp was away with his master. As the uios ments passed, Tiptoo became restless and excited. She hopped from one window to another, and looked in all directions for her friend Tramp. By and by the clock si ruck. "One ! two ! three I lour ! five !", counted Tiptoo in a loud voice. She waited a few minutes longer, and then she sprang upon her mistress's shoulder. "Herald, Globe, Rekkid !", she said; "Herald, Globe, Rekkid !"Ouce, twice, three times. And then her mistress understood her meaning. "Oh," she said, "so you'll buy a pa per if I give you money." "Herald, Globe, Rekkid l",screamed Tiptoo, in evident delight. "Well, take it. Don't swallow it." Out through the window hopped Tiptoo, with the money in her bill, down the path, across the street, and inte the store. Her mistress watched her anxiously. "I wish I hadn't let her go," she said. "Something may frighten her." Into the store hopped Tiptoo, and sprang upon the counter. Then, dropping the money, she called ini peratively, "Herald, Globe Rekkid! ' Laughing, wondering, praising her cleverness, the shopman gave her a paper. Clutching it firmly in her beak, Tiptoo flew down, hopped out into the street, up the path, into the par lor. Then she flew to her perch, and rocking herself back ai d forth, she cried. "Oh, my ! Oh, my ! Tiptoo bought a paper ! Oh, my ! Oh, my ! Herald, Globe, Rekkid !" Mary A. Sawyer, in Little Men and Women. SPECIAL NOTICES. Girl Wanted. Apply to A. D. Rotstkr & Bro's ice Cellar.
