Kai.f.iot August -10 Some weeks ago the executive board of ibe peniten tiary, Travis, Osborne and Newland, called on the Treasurer for the Issue of f80,000 of bonds foi the purchase of the Caledonia farm. Superintendent Day joined In the request. Thai farm la the very finest iu North Carolina. The Stale has expended $l.r0,000 on It. Now Superintendent Day la "out of the no tion" of buying il, and says convicts can bj employed on railroad and other work along that line. Mr. Osborne, of tbe executive board, who always esteems highly Captain Day's judgment, thinks the latter is right. They say that they do not wish the State to issue the bonds, l'ut Travis and Newland are not yet heard from. The purpose of the I.egls lature waa to purchase the farm. The Democrats in their many years' exper ience found that it would never do to depend on railroad work, and that a farm was a necessity. The Slate of Vir ginia also found a farm necessary. Al a prayer meeting here last night lucre was a great sensation. Two while men entered. They were recognized as Waller Gray and Archie Campbell, from Harnett county, who for over ayear hud been searched for by revenue and State ollicers. A posse, heavily armed; went to the prayer meeting. Instantly the desperadoes made a break for Hie door, bill were stopped by cocked revolvers. Grey reached for his revolver, but was seized. A desperate struggle followed. The members of the congregation aided the deputy marshals. Knives and dirks were takei from the prisoners. They are In jail here. There are live warrants against each for violating revenue laws, store robbery and cattle stealing In three counties. They have terrorized their section of Harnett county. Duhrain is to have a new bank. The directors of the Durham Savings Bank, the new enterprise, met at the office of Guthrie & Guthrie today and organized for business.

An assault from ambush was made on George Sandlln, formerly policeman at Old Fort, and now an overseer of hands near Hound Knob, for Colonel Cou ncil's graphite works, yesterday al 6 o'clock. Mr. Sandlln was passing from his Imardlng place through thick woods to legin work and was shot In the hack by some one unknown. About 5(1 small shot entered his hack neck nnd bead. The wounds are not fatal. Lee Summers, a convict now In the penitentiary here, was sentenced for life. Governor Carr commuted this to 15 years. Of this 13 years will have lieeo served August 29. By that dale If good conduct commutation Is to be counted from the beginning of the sentence, Summers will be entitled to be free. Rut the penitentiary board has decided that good conduct commutation cannot be allowed llf-tcrm codvlcts, and that It can be allowed Summers only from the date when Governor Carr made the sentence 15 years J. C. L. Harris, as counsel for Summers, went to the penitentiary and demanded that August 20 th Summers be jeleased. Superintendent Day refused to allow this. Harris will take nut ha beas corpus papers the day afterthe 29th and put the case to tbe test of the courts He says that the giving of such good conduct commutation Is an act of grace and that tbe courts, in his opinion, will put a very liberal construction upon II.

There was no target practice at all during the late encampment of the Second and Third Kegtments of the State Guard. It was a bad mistake not to have had it. The tents have been brought here and stored In a rented warehouse, as tbe arsenal is soon to he torn down and removed. There are now three white and four negro public schools here.

Mr. Pratt lias made a thorough investigation of the Koiinillan hale iu his mill, and recently published a letter, in which he said that collon in this form was worth $2.00 a bale more to his mill than square bale cotton. Recently he telegraphed as fol lows: "After two years experience with the Koiindlap bale of the American Collon Company as a manufacturer, I can posi tively slate lhal my experience is that II can he sampled equally as well as the square hale; that it saves Hv in waste; thai it unwinds to the core perfectly, and saves much labor in the opening room.

The Baltimore Sun of Tuesday an nounces that the Maryland Naval Militia will get the converted ciuiier Hornet, which Is now assigned lo this port for the uc the North Carolina Naval militia. However, it is believed in Naval Reserve circles here that there Is some mistake about the matter as nothing whatever has been heard of I he reported change hj ( apt. Geo. L. Morton, Commander H. H. Mcllhenuy or any oilier officer o( the North Carolina Reserves. Referring to the matter the Sun says The Maryland Naval Militia, which has just returned from a trip to the Capes on the Sylvia, is to have another vessel for a practice ship and wili give up the Dale, which the command lias hail for live years. The new boat is the Hor net, ami is now in possession of the Naval Militia of North Carolina and Lieutenant Commander Geer expects to send a picked crew from the Maryland Naval Militia for her In about a month She Is about three limes the size of the Sylvia, and was in service about the is land of Cuba during the Spanish war The Sylvia will be retained also and both vessels are to ne used by the militia, the idea being to have sham battles be tween the t wo. There is a movement on foot for the Maryland Naval Militia to go lo New York In attend the Dewey celebration If llie Hornet can be scented before thai lime she will take the sailor boys there, and if a large number desire lo go the Sylvia may go also to accommodate them The New York militiamen have prom ised the Marylanders a lively reception and they will probably take part in bolh the land and naval parades.
