The address of Gov. Holt to day was one of his masterly effort It looks like the 4h of July, only a little more so The Governor's Guard drum corps made a very handsome tbow today. "Jim the Westerner is expected here again soon. Latest accounts from Mr. George H. Snow represent him as no better. National and State flags floating around on all sides. Large crowds are arriving by every train. A grand day for the capital of the Old North State. Tne capitol square will be illumi nated during the Exposition. Good. . General closing up today. Every body has the Exposition fever The city is fast tilling up with strangers. The Alligator department at the Exposition grounds is a novel eight. Georgia and South Carolina have tine exhibits. There are now over seventy pupils at St. Mary's school and daily in creasing. Thf Revenue receipts in this dis-. trict for the month of September were $8S.O0O There was bu' very little doing at the capitol today. All the officials were taking in the exposition There is abso lutely no news today except such as relates to the exposi tion Nearly nil the business men com plied with the request to close their stores today. Col. Jno. W. CunhioghajB willot)a the Alauianco fair which commences at Burlington, Oer,. Gth. Greensboro hns decided to run the street cars in that citj with dumm engines. Tickets are on sale for tae exposi tion at the Yarboro House and Wool1 cott's store. This gives you a ehanes to avoid the ru6h at the grounds. . Members of the press who have noi been furnished with tiokets,can se cure the same by applying to the secretary The procession today was a great commingling of all our people. Near ly every profession and trade was represented. It is generally understood that the railroad from Ridgeway to Richmond will be built by the Seaboard Air Line at no distant day. It will be of much advantage to Raleigh. There are about two hundred and twenty students at Wake Forest, from eight different States. The success of the' institution is beyond precedent. , Those holding complimentary tick ets that require photographs, should bear in mind that after to day , the pro vision must be complied with. It is said to be necessary in order to pre vent imposition. The Raleigh and Gaston railroad has erected a handsome waiting pa villiou at the terminus of its track to the exposition grounds. Trains will be run at frequent intervals through out the term of the exposition. My wife has used Bradycrotine for headache with the best imaginable results. I state this without solicita tion. J. W. Mashburn, Abbeville, Ga. Sept 30 6t, Can't R- v. Thos. Dixon be prevail ed upon to give us another lecture at an early day? The city is full of strangers.and almost all would be de -lighted to hear this distinguished son of North Carolina, Let us hear him on "Fools." HiB lecture on money is haed to beat, but it is said that his The attendance at the grounds to day is estimated from two thousand to twenty Ave hundred. The procession this morning was the largest ever had before ou an oc casion of the kind. Mr. R. W. LaotWer. of Oxford, died few days since. He w-js at one time, President of the Kileigh & Gaston Railroad, and well known in Raleigh. The Durham Inud Is a fin.' specimen of musical geni i:s They are here to st,r.y duriuK the entire Exposition. Th'y are finely uniformed. A flue oil portrait of Capt. E. Haynes Davis, a distinguished ex Confederate, has ben placed in the State Library. It is evident that the street cars now ou he route will not be sufficient to cary the crowds to the Exposition grounds The Blue Ball sluggers of Winston, yesterday won the deciding game from Richmond, for the champion ship of the South, by a score of 19 to 7. Dr. Gilliam, President of Johns Hopkins University will deliver the address on the occasion of the in augtiration of Prof. Winston as Presi dent of the University of North Caro lina. There is a full fledged Ohinaman in town (cue and all) and he is the chief attraction of the small boys. He wears the national costume of his na tive Ipnd. The News and Observer, State Chronicle and Atlanta Journal have beautiful quarters at the Exposition, nicely decorated with red, white and blue. Col. F. A. Old's news bureau is handsomely fixed up. It is about time that some move inent looking to the raising of money for North Carolina at the World's Fair was beiug made. At present the outlook is not as good as it might be. Organized. The senior class at Wake Forest has been organized as follows: W B Daniel, N C, president; Robert Lide, S C, secretary; 0 H Dockeryjr, N C, orator; W A Garland, N C, poet; J Paul Spence, N C, historian; Irving Hardesty, N C, prophet.

W L 8kipper, John Wilbon, Kit Curfell, C H Murphy, C Fischer, P Welker, Geo Lougee, Jr. Prof Follman and Master Lamar Gammon. A Pretty Street. We were particularly struck with a remark made by our fellow citizen Mr. Eugene G. Harrell, at the late mass meeting of citizens at Metropoli tan Hall. Capt. Harrell, as is well known has traveled very extensively, not only in this, but in foreign count tries. He declares, that, taking it al together our Fayetteville street, is the prettiest he ever saw and so it is. It is now prettier than ever in its gaudy array Let all the people of North Carolina take a pride in their beautiful capital city. It deserves it. Good Work, The good results flowing from coun ty institutes are thus commented up on in the Winston Daily Sentinel: "There is no work, perhaps, more benificent to the public school teach ers of North Carolina than the coun ty institutes, held by Professors Al derman and Mclver. The good re suit of this work is seen and testified to by the county Superintendents in each county that an institute has been held. The teachers are filled with renewed vigor and zeal in their work they" have better ideas of con ducting and governing a school and their information and ability is more expanded." "The Kitty Wallace" This new variety of apple was dis covered, or developed, on the farm of The St. Louis school board has em ployed detectives to watch the 1,200 young ladies who are employed as Mr. Wallace In this county. The ap-! te ehers in the pnblic schools of that city. Jfthe youug ladies would re ciprooate by employing detectives lo watch the school board, there might be some interesting developments.

There was a very large and select audience in attendance at Metropoli tan Hall last night to hear the lecture of Rev. Thos. Dixon, extitled "The Almighty Dollar." It would be im possible within our short space to do ample justice to the merits of the oc casion. It was indeed one of the greatest literary treats ever enjoyed by our people. The parallel for good or evil drawn before the eyes of those possessing an abundance of the 'filthy lucre,' has never been excelled by any one we ever heard. Mr. Dixon is a wonderful man, and destined to make a high notch in the ladder of fam e. North Carolina may well be proud of him, as in his innermost soul he is of her.

The p-o cession was formed between LI and 12 o'clock and marched direct to the grounds.
