IVY IN B II IFF.
Springtime in the distance.
"Mr. W. L. Holt of Burlington, ia in
the city.
The robins are getting here in con
siderable numbers.
Judge Foykin . ontinaes qnite ill at
his residence in Clinton.
The song of the ploughman will
soon be heard in the laud.
Miss Janet Andrews who has been
quite sick, is much Improved.
Mr. Geo. H Snow has gone to
New Berne on legal business.
Let there be no lagging in the mat
ter of the Confederate monument
Brookside Park will soon be pat In
proper trim for the coming seasou.
Many of the meuiberB'of the Logis
say they are going to attend the in
augural.
There are now 210 students at the
normal school in Greensboro, and 4 JO
application are now on tile.
We regret to iearn that our friend,
Mr. Miles Goodwin, is quite ill at his
residence cn West Jonos street.
The sheriff of New Hanover set tied
his stale taxes with the treasurer yes
terday afternoon.
Miss Mary M. RufHn, of Wilson, is
In the city visltfng Mrs.R B Ptebles,
on Hillsboro street.
Mrs 0. H. Beine is very sick at her
residence on the Tarboro road just
east of the city liirits.
Now your blood should be purified.
Take Hood's Sarsararilla, the best
spring medicine and blood purifier.
It is understood that the finance
committee have agreed to a tax of 20
cents on the $100 valuation of land in
the revenue biil.
North Carolina state bonds are still
up in the figures. , Sizes are qu' ted
at 123, and the 4 per cent consols are
in good demand at par.
New bills are daily being intro
duced in both houses, notwithstand
ing only a short time remains for the
legislature to be in session.
We very much expect that it will
be a difficult undertaking to get more
new county bills through the legisla
ture. The tendency seem to be
against it.
. The skating carnival at 8tronach'8
warehouse, has been postponed until
tomorrow night on account of the
weather.
The Figaro cigars announced by
our friend Mr. J Hal Bobbitt are
not to be excelled in this city. All
lovers of the weed should give them
a trial. They are "Dandies" and no
mistake
The different committees have
agreed upon the appropriations for
the several charitable and penal in
stitutions This will, no doubt, much
facilitate business.
Here's success to the noble lad ies who
have worked so zealously in behalf
of the Confederate monument. Let
every true man aid them to all the
extent possible.
There "ill be an adjourned meet
ing of the chamber of commerce to
night at the mayor's pfflce, at which
very important business will be trans
acted. A prompt attendance is de
sired. .
We now have a right to expect that
Pollen Park will receive due atten
tion in the matter of improvements
It can be made a $kst delightful
summer resort for our people at a
small cost with a good road to reach
It. .; . vV'
There is much speculation in our
city as U-who will succeed the late
Mr. Robiason as president of the Sea
" fcord Air Line. We have heard our
fellow citizen, Maj. R. 8. Tucker sug
gested and we hope that if he can be
indncod to serve it may be conferred
upon him. No better one could be
selected.
- There is a proposition in the gen
eral assembly to give clerks of the
Superior Court and register of deeds
annual salaries. Such a law is to
tally impracticible. How could it be
arranged with anything like justice.
Of course, for intsance, no one wonld
say that the clerk of the Superioi
Court of Wake should not receive a
higher salary than that of Cherokee
or Clay. ' he law, it as.stando, in our
opinion cannot be improved upon,
I O. O. F.

A large delegation is here from
Wilkes county, to protest against
the formation of the new county of
Elkin. They will be given a fair and
patient hearing.
Although there is considerable
pork coming to market, there seems
to be no tumble in prices. It is still
held at about ten cents.
Taking up the carpets and brush
ing up for spring will soon be the or
der of the day with housewives.
