Chamber of Commewe,
We beUeve we voice- the eenttui u
of oar entire busloeM eommoulty
when we say t at more frequent
meeting of oar Chamber of Com
merce are deelrable.or if there be any
cause why the present gentlemen
composing that body cannot well
pare the time necessary for the per
formance of the du'ies, then a reor
ganiiation should be effected For
awhile the Chamber of Commerce of
Raleigh was most active in farther
log important movements in onr
midst, bat it is due to candor to say,
that for some time past there has
been mnoh reticence. This should
not be the case. We think there
should be frequent meetings of the
chamber from time to time, so that
some of the important needs of Kal-
eigh could be looked after. While
onr city has made many strides for
ward in the past few years, there is
much to do to pat as in the front
rank of municipalities. The Cham
ber of Commerce should, as it were,
be sentinels on the watch tower, giv
ing tone and life to such suggestions
as tend to keep up with the march
of improvement. Let us have an
early call together of the chamber,
and have it understood that there
must either be more activity or a
thorough reorganization.

Tbe Seaboard Air Line
The report now is that tbe Sea
board Air Line will soon put on a
passenger train between Charlotte
and Atlanta via Monroe. Referring
to the matter, the Atlanta Constitu
tion says:
The Seaboard Air Line appears to
have takeu a notion to make life
lively for its competitors. Notice has
been given that at the end of thirty
days the Seaboard and Roanoke and
the Raleigh and Gaston will with
draw from the Southern Passenger
Association. As the Georgia, Caro
Una and Northern has now gone into
the association, the trouble that the
future holds for the Richmond and
Danville can be easily guessed at. A
through line from Atlanta to the
north outside of the passenger asso
ciation can tear things wide open
And it does look as though the Sea
board Air Line is going in for business
as a free lance.

SCIENCE, SO OALLED
Lengthening of Like. The av
erage annual death rate in Ne- York
city, states Mr. uen a. Knight, whs
reported for the decade ending 18?0
at 83.66 per 1,00 but in the semi de
eade ending 1865 it had dropped to
81.44, and to 25 54 in the semi 'decide
ending 1890, the rate in 1800 being
but 24.68. This improvement of 5 7fc
per 1,000 in 25 years lepresents a sav
ing in this one city of about 3 000
lives yearly. These results are due
in part to the great advance in medi
cal and surgical science and appli
ances, in part to improved plambiug
draining, paving and other hygienic
inventions. For ell France the mor
tality in 1771 was 34; by the year 1801
it bad dropped to '8; in 1883, to 22. In
Geneva, Switzerlan 1, the decrease
was from 40 in the . sixteenth century
to 29 in the year 1800. Statistics
show the average life in Great Brit
ain to be nine yenr longer shan it
was 60 years ago. In Italy the mor
tality decreased from 80.06 in 1850 to
25c

Jones & Powell,
The time is not within th memory of the oldest merchant when
Spring Styles in Clothing presented better chance for selection
thau that on exhibition here for this season's trade. Off -riutr as we
do ten times the usual varieties, every garment fresh from the ma
ker's hands, aud prices positively without question, f a'ly at from 10
to 10 per cent, lower than in other stores, the conclusion is simple
enough that here you ought to buy The prices are made extraor
dinarily reasonable to fill our store during tbe en ire season from
wall to wall. The more the merrier. We trade on large principles,
hence seli in large quantities the lowost figure follows.
Spring Overcoats in the Lead
A Spring Overcoat was never more in demand than so far this sea
son too cold to go without any and cool enough for a light weight
garment. Two years ago when people had to pay $30 to $50 to sup
port this demand it was no wonder one overcoat was made to answer
all purposes. Today is different. Our stock of Spring Overcoats at
$10, $12.50 and $15 presents as nice a garment as any dresser need or
wish to wear. Of course we've still finer, but at the above prices we
are sure you'll find the one to snit you. It's not too late yet. Our
assortment in sizes f i m 33 to 40 is quite complete.
The medium weight suits in Sacks, Cutaways and Prince Alberts
have rather a better chance this spring than heretofore it's the cli
mate to the dot, and we are the people to furnish them. Dress Suits
$18, $20, $23, $23 to 35. Business Suits at $10, $12 50 and $15. Every
garment ret resents its full value, and in all cases you save at least 50
percent, from tbe usual tailor's price, and better garments than
ours you cannot find. A glance at our stock will convince you.
