The time is short, and what is to be done must be done quickly. We hear that is in contemplation to open the Hargett street, electric line at an early day. It must be that this will be a paying line, and it would seem that the interest of the company and the public alike would demand its early completion.

According to the Durham Sun, Evangelist Fife is in somewhat of a quandary in Danville. The Sun 8as: "According to the reports in the Register, Evangelist Fife finds two particular unpleasant features of his meetings in Danvi'le. One is that crowds of drunken men in the audi ence asked to be prayed for, and the other is that he does not have the sympathy of the christian workers. Good Entertainment. The ladies of the Christian Church certainly have a very attractive dins ing room at the Moseley House on Fayetteville street. They have oys ters which are really fresh and nice.

It was found out b a boy, and is as follows: "A wire stretched from a back window to a neighbor's house was use'' by him in practicing telegraphy. An electric light wire having dropped down on his wire magnet was burned out. When the youngster went, out a few days later to investigate be found the back yard full of deceased cats. It was a mystery. He suspected poison. Soon after he observed an aggressive cat climbing from the fence to the shed the elect r!c light wire was in the way Possibly Tom touched the wire with bis fore paws, and exuberant vocal and physical gymnastics followed.

Sharpe, editor of the Seymour, (Connecticut) Record is here taking in the exposithou. He writes to his papers as follows: "The visitor to the South tody finds a different significance of the words, "On to Richmond," than he did a q narter of a century ago. In; the place of a hostile foe he will be received with open arms and a hospi j tality that is unbounded in its gen- j u'neness, a true, warm hearted peo pie, who are u-ing every human ef- J fort to bury the past that contains so j many bitter memories. In place of j the scenes of bloodshed and devasta tion of that day, he will witness one , of the mobt wonderful industrial revo lutions that it is possible his mind car- conceive. He will see cities and manufacturing enterprises that have sprung up as if by magic, and a coun try whose mineral wealth is inex-j haustible.''
