T ita wmtt VOL. XXX. RALEIGH, FRIDAYJANUARY 26. 1894. NO. JO t - OUR UNEMPLOYED. Soma Suggestions for Employing Them. Correspondence of the Visitor. I hare had namber of eltlxrns to peak to me in commendation of the Idee for utlliilng oar charity and giv ing employment to a great many idle people. I hare been asked to suggest how the money should be raised and some thing aboot the wages to be paid. The money should be raised by son e ystematio effort of weekly payments to as to enable mechanics and others, who are employed, to help their fel lows. Of coarse it will be expected that our merchants, professional and business men will respond liberally but the effort should enlist all as far as posesble. Small sums of ten to twenty floe cents from a great many persona weekly would afford quite a fund to be added to the large sub scriptions. " Our polioe force might aid very ma terially in the collection of the sub aoriptiona. As to the wages to be paid, let it be remembered that this la an emergen ey work.and those employed are to be kept so only until they oan dobetter, and the wages paid are not to be judged as if they were paid by em ployers in the usual avocations. For single men I would suggest 50c a day; for married men 66f o; for girls 25c and for women 40o per day.., Not more than one perron should be employed in same family, and no girl or boy should bo employed if the father is living and is able to work. Nor should any woman be employed with a living husband who is able bodied. These rulea would prevent lmposi. tion from several directions. It would be expected that wood, coal and pro visions would be purchased in large quantities on moat reasonable terms possible and sold by this Raleigh agency to those employed under It. JBut to none others. But what we need is a meeting of oar citizens to . consider this whole matter. When shall it take place? Is this not a very proper subject for the Chamber of Commerce to take hold of? KB BRouaaTOff. i Heavy Deal. Our enterprising merchant and cit izen, Mr D T Swindell, has received a telegram from Messrs J M Link and T J Lamb, receivers of the Durham Supply Company, in which they an nounoe that they have accepted Mr Swindell's offer to purchase the entire business of the company, which was reoently placed in the hands of a re oeiver. The actual inventory of the atock places its value at $48,000. Mr Swindell purchased it for cash and the trade is one of the largest of the kind ever taken place in the state. The sale has been confirmed and Mr Swindell left this afternoon to take charge. The stock will be placed on the Ralegh market, thus giving our people- a rare benefit. It is a "big thing" and shows Mr Swindell to be wide awake on all matters pertaining to his line of business. Fine Reception. The reception given last Wednes day night in Wilmington by Mr and Mrs D Gr Worth was a brilliant affair indeed. The commodious parlors were handsomely decorated in pink and white" flowers and all theap polntments were superb. It was i grand occasion in which 800 guests participated. At a seasonable hour a most elaborate and elegant supper was served under the personal super vision of our fellow citizen, Mr A Dugbi, who gained additional tame by the splendid nature of the mena - AU were delighted and he was wrd ed the utmost praise. In the little town of Benson, John ton county, 18,000 pounds of home raised pork have been killed this winter. CITI II BBIXf. Locals Pkl ed Up Here and There and Boiled Down.

A Wolf. Rev W G Clements, of the Chris tian Sun, has reoently been engaged in showing up a man named MoDon aid who claims to be a . preacher. Mr Clements has recently received a let ter from the secretary of .the Chris tian Conference, of .Ken tacky, stating that McDonald had been expelled.
