Mrs. Win, Boylan is very ill. R. M. Furman, Esq., of Asbeville. is here, looking as well as ever. Mr. W. H. Howard, of Apex was in the city today. First Class Tailoring Estab lishment. There are several things essential in every community One of these is a reliable tailoring establishment; of this Raleigh can boast of in the one conducted by Mr. Geo. N. Walters. Mr. Walters keeps nice goods aud does good work. He has recently had his rooms painted and brushed np without and within, and is looking for a substantial fall trade. Mayor's Court. It looked little like a Held day at the Mayoi's levee this morning, hut it was altogether "much ado about nothing." Several trivial cas. s wei up with the usual results of $5 and cost. A case against Emma Coats for disorderly conduct, was postponed at the request of counsel for the defen dant, Mr. J. C. L. Harris, until ten o'clock tomorrow morning. Hardware, A U . Win.

The C mnursioners of Granville county have increased its appropria tion for getting ui an exhibit for the Inter State Exposition from ten to twenty dollars in each township. Next Friday and Saturday are the days set apart fr the examination of applicants before the Supreme Court, to practic law. The first district will be called next Monday. Raleigh Chapter, No. 10, Royal Arch Masons will hold a regular con vocation this evening at 8 o'clock. Every member is requested to be present. Royal Arch Degree to be conferred. Can't President Geone ru4i uut'ue matter of opening the line on flllls boro street to a respectable distance As it is, the cars may as well not rui at all. We hope Mr. Patrick will use bis best efforts to have the buildings lighted up at night during the expo sition. There is an universal demand that the exposition be opened at night. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, October 5th, 6th and 7fh. have been set apart as Viiginia days at thaex position. The 4 Old Dominion" is ex pected here iu full blast. There is much disappointment manifested because the rate of fare on the railroads is not put down at one cent a mile as was done in 1884, when the ratts were lowered to that figure after the first part of October. It worked like a charm then, and it should be done now. The argument in the Caraltigh railway case was concluded today aud the Commissioners awarded Mr. Goodwin $800 as damages; the amn't claimed, we believe wasSpi.OOO. Attention is directed to the adver tisement of Mr. W. R. Newsoni, one of our most popular business men in the grocery line. He offers such in ducements as must attract public at tention. The work of painting and repair ing the Mayor's office has been com pleted, and Mayor Badger and Chief Heartt are moving their books etc., back again. It is now a most beauti ful court room, and the Mayor and Chief will look much happier tomor row. Both of ' tbem have lo ked rather worried for a day cr so. A re turn of their gonial smiles will shed lustre all around. Those Railroad Kates. The railroads have finally fixed the rates to be charged to the Exposition at Raleigh, two cents a mile or a lit tie less. This is disappointing to the people and very much against the success of the great enterprise. The Exposition in 1884 was a failure until the raihoads reduced the fare to one cent a mile, and had not that reduc tion taken place, it would have been a failure to the end. What right have the roads to expect it differently this year 1 There ie short sightedness in rail road counsels somewhere, which will make itself manifest yet. A Sad Case. Mr. Charles Edwards, a young man about thirty five years of age was brought to the city on Friday last from the country and placed in St. Johns' Hospital for treatment. It was soon discovered that his mind was so seriously impaired that it was necessary to confine him. Last eve ning he was taken to the station house where he remained during the night. It was understood today, thai steps are Leing taken to have him placed in the Insane Asylum. Mr. Edwards is said to have been a gen tleman of much popularity, and his sad case causes much sympathy. "Uncle Hiram." In 41 Uncle Hiram," the New Eng land Home Comedy, that will be play ed here tonight, the comedian Aaron H. Woodhull has a special and en tirely new creation of the "down east countryman." It is a natural, com plete individualization. As the shrewd old farmer making his way among the crooksand sharps of the city, he is irresistibly funny. It is a capital piece of acting, and one keeps laugh iug at and liking him all the way through. One of the least funny things Uncle Hiram does is buying 4,3 pure Havana cigars for five cents," which he tries to give away to every body he meets, but no one accepts; at the finish of the play he offers them to the audieace, which brings down the curtain with a howl of laughter. A special set of scenery is carried for the last act, which shows the New York Harbor, with the Bartholdi Statue and Brooklyn Bridge in the distance. Opened. The graded schools have opened iu this township under the most favor able auspices. In the white schools yesterday the attendance was over eight hundred, and a larger number than usual in the colored schools. Professor Moses extended a smost cordial welcome at the Centennial Graded School, and Mr. Parker, the Principal, welcomed them at theMur phey School. Grand Sire Busbee. The following dispatch was received here yesterday from the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows, now in session at St. Louis: Representative Orendorff, of Illi nois, moved the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted by a rising vote: Resolved, That the Sovereign Grand Lodge has learned with feel ings of deep regret of Grand Sire Bus bee's affliction by the hand of disea&e, which prevents his attendance at this session, and desires at this, its first opportunity, to express its heart felt sorrow and loving sympathy, to gether with the earnest hope and prayer that he may soon be restored to health and the performance of the duties of the high office which he has adorned by his eminent services.

This morning between 7 and 8 o'clock quite a serious accident oc cured on the Hillsboroline of the elec tric street railway. Near the corner of Hillsboro and Dawson streets a switch is being prepared, and a force of workmen are engaged in fixing up the track &c. As one of the cars was coming down fiom the power house to resume the run of the day, it jumped the track at this point. Mr. George Fudge, Superintendent of construction was present, and with a crow bar was endeavoring to prize it on again In doing so, the crow bar while prizing the wheel fle.vv up nd the shock caused ' r. Pudge to fall backwards. As he did so,, the ear started off aid he was struck bv r.ir-i projecting edge of the "ear guard " which corresponds wit, the cow catch er of a locomotive in keeping th track clear Mr. Pudge was struck i the fleshy pa.-t of the riglu leg by ', i; sharp point of the guard intiietinr ., deep and gaping wound between tin; knee and ankle. The limb about l !i" knee was also much bruised. Medic d aid was at once summoned and the unfortunate gentleman was conveyed in an ambulance furnished by "' r. Jno. W Brown to his quarters at the Yarboro House. Mr. Pudge, is, we believe forom Massachusetts During his sojourn among us he has won many frien Is, who very much sympathize with l.iui. It is sincerely hoped that by prompt medical attention no very dangerous results will follow. It was however, a near escape from instant death. SPED I A I, NOTICES. A House Girl Wanted.
