We Invite' attention to the adver
tisement, of the Lyon Racket Store,
in which is announced a most extra
ordinary cutting down of prices. Let
all read it axd profit by the announce
ment. It has beou suggested In official cir
cles that the property known as the
'Sorrell" plac; on South Wilmington
street, opposle the market, would be
an eligible and convenient site for a
new station house. We do not know,
of course, what the property would
cost.or whether it could be purchased,
bat we concur In the idea of the fit
ness of the place for the purpose in
dicated. As heretofore stated, we
believe a good station house could be
erected with but very little cost to
the city- It is certainly much needed
A complete line ,of tobaccos. We
carry a large stock of the popular
Drands, such as Nosegay, Plug Hat,
Eu GbuiMe" Waverly, Too Loo and
Harris Best. At 0. O. Ball & Co.'s
Brought Back
John T. Davis, who was recently
at Denver, Col., has been brought to
Richmond and remanded to jail to
await trial before the Hastings Court
of tbat city on an Indictment recent
ly found. On arriving in Richmond
he was takes h. fore the Police Court,
but no charge wat preferred against
him in that tribunal. Davis refuses
to make any statement for publica
tion. Important Discussion.
The Railroad Commission yeeter
day, had a most important matter
under consideration, known as the
Deaver case. Deaver asserts that the
Richmond & Dunville Railroad had
deprived him of a two thousand mile
ticket, a portion of whi?h had not
been used. It was showed in evidence
that Deaver's son in law had used
the ticket upon which the conduc
tor declared the ticket forfeited. The
case was dismissed.
Geuerous Donation.
Our enterprising friend, Mr. A.
Dughi, yesterday, turned over to Mr.
A. P. C. Bryan, Treasurer of St.
John's Hospital, the turn of $10 being
the net proceeds of the receipts of his
saloon for Ice cream during Easter
Monday This is a genei ous act on
the part of Mr Duglii which mast be
appreciated. By the way, Mr. Duglii
will keep his ice cream t-aloon open
hereafter, during the entire season,
until 11 o'clock at night, which will
be a great convenience.
Formal Opening
As heretofore announced, the rooms
of the Y. M OA, corner of Fayette
ville and Morgan streets will be
formally opened to the public to
night. After inspection of the -ooins
an adjournment will be made to the
assembly room where Dr. Lewis, the
President, will deliver an address of
wel ome. There will also be short
addresses by various ministers, with
music, etc. The committees for this
year will be announced. The Ladies
of the Auxiliary are specially rtques
ted to be present to aid In the reception.
Death of Mr. Albert II. Dowel!.
We were informed today by a friend
that the above named gentleman died
recently in New York City, In very
reduced circumstances.
Mr. Dowell, is no doubt well re
membered by many of our citizens
He was born in the neighborhood cf
Oary, Wake county, but left there in
early life. Atone time, he was con
nected with the Washington City
Chronicle, while that well known
journal was under the control of the
late John W. Forney After leaving
(lie Curoiiic'eJ. Mr. Dowell went to
Asbeville, whese he was again con
nected with a newspaper From there
he went to New York He was a gen
tleman of undoubted journalistic
talent and possessed generous 1m
pulses. His many friends In North
Carolina will deeply regret to learn
of his death.
Slaughter of Hamburg Edgings
By means best known to us we
came in possession of a big lot of
Hamburg Edging for a trifle almost
nothing. This edging we bought for
you. It is now on exhibition just as
you enter our store. Look at It and
pass your judgment on It. We are
letting our customers have this edg
ing at a price which will surprise
anybody but a hou. This i dging Is
not common but line. Five cents
will buy a better and a wider edging
than you are now buying at 12io and
15c. Eight and ten cents will buy as
nice edging as you are in the habit of
paying 18c and 20c a yard for. Think
of this and profit by it. This edging
is now on sale. "We underbuy be
cause we can; we undersell because
we will." All over our store, In every
department, you can buy nice goods
for 20, 80 and 40 per cent less than
any other merchant is selling them.
Yours truly-,
