C hamber of Commerce and the busi ness men of that city generally to get the Inter-State Exposition next year. On the part of our citizens it is but just to say that our iriend A. B Stronach just spread himself in the rece ption of the Maryland boys. He has made his mark with the Balti more boys and no mistake. The Marylard boys this morning bad a most hi'arious lime in an in nocent way. They paraded the streets, with cow bells, tin horns, mock drums and all sorts of fantastic devices. Fire crackers were used in profusion. No intrfe nee was made with them and they virtually had the freedom ot the city. All right. They are a gloiious set of fellows. Long may they live and kindly may they ever remember us When you et too much, When you drink too much, When yci' smoke too much, When you work too much, Bradycrotine, no Headache, novll 6t. We learn that it is in con tern pi a tion to order several new coaches for the electric street railway to take the pla "e of the summer cars. In fact there ase several improvements contemplated.

The Supreme Court is fast dispos ing of the docket. The 7th district will be called next Monday. Pick pockets who usually go with large crowds seem to have given us the go by during the visit of tl e Ma ryland troops. The Vance Guards at Henderson fired a salute in honor of the Fifth Regiment as they passed on their way to Raleigh. It is rumored that a force of hands will be put to work next week fixing up the track, &c, of the Hargett strt-et electric railroad.

The Btptist chapel, near the Agri cultural and Mechanical College, is fast improving in the way of num bers. It will soon have a consider able congregation. Nothing succeeds so well as success. The reception of the Maryland Reg imaut Ins challenged the admiration of all, and " Tar Heel" hospitality will now become proverbial. Hargett street, between Wilming ton and Fayetteville streets, is badly in need of repairs. It is getting to be a most important thoroughfare and we hope it may soon receive atten tion. The Express companies have ar ranged their rates in conformity with the regulations of the Railway Com mission. We suppose these rates will be' published for the guidance of the public. They should be. The Fifth Maryland Regiment left about noon today for Baltimore. They were escorted to the depot by the Governor's Guard and a commit tee of citizens. They were warmly greeted as they marched through the streets. May they have a safe arrival home. Unless the fouutain in Moore square is kept, in better order, it will cecome a nuisance. It seems to be constantly choked up, thus forming a pool of watr directly iu the path of pedes trians. It should be attended to Among others, the highest credit is due to Mayrr Badger and Chief of Police Heirtt, for their indefatigable efforts to render the visit of the Marylanders agreeable These gen le men well sustained the reputation of the ''City of Oaks," for which they deserve the thanks of the entire com munity. A road congress is proposed to bo held in Pittsburg, Pa , on the 23rd inst. North Carolina ought to bo represented and, we modestly svg gest that Gov. Holt appoint delegates. If we can learn to have better roads in our State, ve should take part in it. The Ball. The grand event of the reception of the Maryland troops was the ball given last night at Stronach's audito rium. It is estimated that there were i two thousand persons present includ ing spectators. The daBcing com menced at 10:30 o'clock and was kept up until a late hour. The ladies were out in force, and with their beautiful costumes and lovely faces lent the highest charm to the occasion.

This distinguished evangelist will deliver his celebrated lecture '"Get There" at Metropolitan Hall tonight. It will be a treat rarely enjoyed by the people of Raleigh. No man in this country has obtained such ahold on the people, and there is a wide spread desire to hear him among all classes of our people. He is a genius in the true sense of the word. His fame has reached the uttermost parts of the civilized world, and his name has become a household word. The house will no doubt be crowded to its utmost capacity. There is only one Sam Jones in the world; go and hear him. Oysters and Ire Cream. They are having a merry time at Moseley's old dining hall. The oys ter and ice cream supper given by Ruth Lodge, D of R , last night was a great success. The teTpting bivalves were served in the finest style by a corps of charming young ladies. The hall was handsomely decorated wi' h t utumo's choicest floral gifts and draped with the colors of orange and black The music far nished by the string band ws do ligutful and added greatly to the oc casion. We do not say too muh when we say that all who attended were immensely pleased and depart ed well sa isfled and refreshed both mentally and physically. Quite a snug little sum was realized. ' The hall will be open again tonight and the same fair hands will serve you in the same pleasant way if you attend.

DBPMTMENT Shoe Shoe In our Shoe Department, while catering to the wants of all or nearly all, and those who we do not cater for are the persons who want OUR a shoe so low in price as not to be good, and slioes that are not gcod we do not care to sell. Of all articles which enter into our daily per sonal wear the shoe is probably the last to SHOE practice poor economy upon. While of course we keep shoes at a great many differ ent prices, we do not lose sight of the fact that we must sell a good shoe or lose much of our shoe custom. We do not lose many iu this way, but we do gain customers, for DEPARTMENT. 0"r new shoe department is larer tban ever before, and we warmly recommend it to those who want reable footwear at moder ate prices. ff.
