Mr. Dal Haywood had a very nsr row escape on Saturday from being run over by the street cars, and but, for the prompt action oi Mr. L H Adams, who saw the danger and qu'ckly pulled him out of the wav, he wourd prob'ibly have been killed Accidents will happen in connection with about everything in human affairs, but everybody should reduce the number as much as possible. Our street car people should i n est the'r share in caution on this line. If it had not heen for Mr. Adams Mr Hay wood'Toubtless would r we been I seriousl'Wi'irt, as he was not aware of tl.io.ltp'proach of the car until Mr. i A. jerked him almost from under the wheels. "Credit t'-hoiu credit 1b due," is a good motto, i is a just one and Bhould be applied to those who are entitled to It We are led to these re ' flections from the font that Col. Paul I Faison and the admi aLio board, of ' which he is eh air in an, has done much to mike our State prison a success so far as a pecuniary return to the ftate I is concerned. For many years pre I ceding the election of Gov. Fowle the j State prison had been considered a I drag upon the taxpayers of North j Carolina. It was doubted whether : the establishment of the prison was or was not to be a success. North Carolina, prior to the war, had em barked in a system of a State penal institution, but, emulating the example of most States in the union, it was established by the constitution of 1858 Then, it was that we con eluded to do the best we could under the circumstances, and although, for a series of years the prison, has been a source of expense, it now looks as if it will prove a source of profit. Recently, Col. Faison, the chair man of the board, has made another, and we believe, a successful step in the direction of helping the people of North Carolina in making the prison a paying concern. He has just leased 6,000 acres of land on the Roanoke river. The lessors are J. P. and J. H Futrell, hetrs of Dr. J . R. Pope and Mr. D. A. Pope. The lease is to run ten years, and the price paid was $2,350. It is understood that if at any time during the ten years the penitentiary authorities desire to purchase the lands it can be done at the expiration of the lease at an average of $3.75 per acre. The board proposes to put 100 con victs to work on the land next mouth ; to rebuild the dikes along the river, clear up all the low lands, put the whole in a high state of cultivation, st iipefy f and engage largely in stock raising Col. Faison says the lands thus acquired are fifteen miles from the otner convict farms. He says there are 5,000 acres in the latter, and two hundred convicts a e employed on them. A like number will be em p!oedon the newly rented farrts. He says the lands are fertile and well situated, part being low land and part high land. A good deal is in timber. We hope to be able to give ad ditional particulars of the matter at an early date. Personal iuent'on. Dr. J. W. McK.ee, Jr., is on to his parents and friends. Miss Birdie Black, one of the G F C. girls is visiting Misses Allie and Winnie Brown. M ister John Edgar Eudy, of 1 Yum , is visiting Master Henry Brown Mr. Will Eudy, of Penn , is visiting his sis'er, Mrs. N. L. Brown. An Editorial of'the Richmond Times Alter the Engagement. The effort which was made last week by Mr John T. Ford, the veteran manager, to revive old fash ioned legitimate comedy at the theatre in this city cannot be too highly commanded. Our amusement lovers have been fed on trash and nonsense for so long a period that it was really refreshing when Mr. Ford came here with his excellent company and gave us a series of elegant, pure, refining and instructive comedies of the old English school. The success he met with was, we hope, sufficient to induce him to come hack again, and if he can only restore the days when the old Marshall Theatre was one of the most delightful amusement resorts to be found in the United States he will confer a lasting benefit on the public.

Th president of the A Valuable Mineral Spring Dis covered on the O.ikdale Property. For some days past the Capital City Land Company have been very confident that they had found a valu- j able mineral spring on their property, but determined to make no public announcement of their belief until u official annul sis could be had of the water They placed one gallon of the water in the StateExperiment Station and today received therefrom the following annalysis which shows that a valuable spring indeed has been discovered.

W. H & R S. Tuokkr & o. Another Raleigh Boy. It is a noticeable fact that when ever a RnUicrh boy starts oul in life wi'h a det nninntiou o win, he does in :uid no mistake. We are drawu to thtl remark from the fa"t that our young friend Mr Al"x gtronech, has, in In- tirst effort l fore the Supreme court, made a mark tor himself, and reflected credit upon hio honored name. Io the first place, "Ah-" comes from a stock that knows no such word as fail. He bel ns to the indomitable Scotch origin, which, when coupled with the "Old Virginia blood," is never known to get left His first attempt in th anperior court was in the case of Mc vamee, Trustee of Vanderbilt, against B. J. Alexander. Mr. Strouach appeared for the defendant, and well did he sustain his cause. We are proud of "Alec," and we know he will make such a reputation in lite as will do credit to himself, and honor his na tive city. Hat Jm are, &c. A 1 kinds of reliable foot covering for man, woman or child was opened today at Norris' Dry Goods Store.
