The Board of Agrlcultur vs. the Durham Fertilizer Co. The following speaks for itself. Balbigh, N. C , Deo. 14, '91. Editor Visitor: Dear 8ir:ia view of erroneous and misleading ac couuts, I desire to send below a true statement of the recent fertilizer suit; and would be glad to see it appear in your columns. Very truly, H. B. Battle, Director. The Board of Agricultural last June, at Oxford, seized a lot of the N, C. Gfflcial Farmers' Alliance Guauo, manufactured by the Durham Ferti lizer Co., for being below its guaran tee. At the trial cf the case last week, the Durham Co., claimed that the sale was complete, and that they had nothing to do with the fertilizer. On this point the judge decided in their favor, and the attorneys for the Board of Agriculture entered a non suit am' took an appeal to the u preme Court. The question of the fertilizers being below their guaran teed claim, the pith of the whole case, was not tried. Death of Mrs. L. O. Lougee Ms. Augusta A Lougee, aged 42 years, died at her residence corner of Davie and Person streets, today 12:40 o'clock. In the death of this good woman the husband L O. Lougee, Esq. and his children will be joined iu their grief by a very wide circle of relatives and friends Mrs Lougee has been sick only a short while and her death has cause a great shock. But she was prepared for the change and is now forever at rest. In her life she exemplified the highest type of Christianity by seek ing the happiness of others rather than ber own. She was one of the most active mem bers of the Baptist Tabernacle Church and the, efficient President of its Ladies Mission and Aid Societies. She will be missed by husband, children, relatives and friends and by scores whose lives she has helped and made brighter. We extend the sym pathy of our whole community. The funeral services will take place from the Baptist Tabernacle tomor row (Tuesday) afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. Our Patrons. BV RWANGKR BROTHERS For years past this mammoth house has been one of the instituiious of our city. A stranger rarelv leases Ral eigh without, at least, giving Berwan ger Bros a call, even if they do not de sire to buy, such are the attractions presented, that it constitutes a good show. Piled up from top to bottom can be seen the rarest specimens of the fashions of the day. Suits of all descriptions, at all the ruling low pri ces of the day. Just nov, they are creating a great furor in Raleigh by the announcement of a grand special sale, which for low prices, has never been excelled here It is certainly a matter of -urpriie, what they can make of a man in the way of dress with so little outlay. For a few doh ars they can make the transforma tion so great that it would puzzle even your dearest and near -st friend o know jou. Ihe proprietors are clever gentlemen, and they will have none but the same kind of people to wait on you. No better place to ob tain a handsome and useful present for yourselves, your children or your friends. We must not omit to say, that in the special line of overcoats they are j'ist paralyzing the senses of those who call. Remember the place. It is at the corner of Fayetteville and Market Place, better known as the Fisher building. m woollcott & sos. For variety of stock iu all the de partments, there is no place in the city that surpasses that of Messrs. Woollcott & Son, on the South side of Martin, between Fayetteville and Wilmington streets. It is indeed an emporium of wonders, where can be seen all the novelties of the Christ" mas season, from the cheapest toy upwards. If you have in view the bestowal of any present to relatives or friends, you may rest assured you can be suited at this establishment. There is an experienced and polite set of clerks, both ladies arid gentlemen to wait on you, and they will take particular pains to show you around. These gentlemen are neDer behind the times, and if you fail to pay them a visit you may regret it m H V. WAITT. The goods at this establishment, formerly that of D. 8. Waitt, deceased, is being closed out by the Executrix at prices astoundingly low. Here can be found everything pertaining to gentlemens' wear in profusion, the goods are being offered in all respect at a sacrafice, and all in need should call and make their selections. Re member the place. It is on the east side of Fayetteville street, opposite the post office. To the Sore Heads, Fogies and Know Nothings. All who come under this head we would speak a sympathetic word to There are many of this class in Ral eigh. Persons who are content to drift in the same old ruts in which their grand parents drifted; this claes never accomplish anything, they are dead lumber in the community, they have a real dollar so seldom that they want their old acquaintance to know it, so they put right off to one of these high price stores and are pur ticular to let Mr. A. B. or C know they have again the privilege of handling American money. Mr. A B. and C. knows you are a fool and he makes you pay for being a fool. He knows you have no business buy ing his high priced goods. He knows you could spend your money to much better advantage at Swindell's. Mr High Price does not care for you as he knows at best your day is passed that your star of wealth has disap peared. He knows you are on the list of dry rot Now take this advice. Go with our little money where a dollar will do double duty. Go to Swindell's, there you will get all and more than a dollars worth. We don't expect this as a matter of friendship or favor, but it is business aril you owe it to yourself. Two car loads of trunks at Swindell's this week. Yours truly, D T. SwiNDBtiti.
