Dr. Cy Thompson Here.
Doctor Cyrus Thompson, formerly of
North Carolina, but now of Onsltw
county, was in tho city yesterday, and
enioved the day with a number of
friends.
The Doctor Is looking very well, and
while claiming farming as his present
pursuit In life, is not out of touch with
present events which are taking place,
and Is fully alive to possible political
future happenings, as In the days of the
later nineties when he did some suc
cessful political stunts on his own ac
count.
Doctor Cy can see nothing over which
the present State administration can
really feel proud, this from a plain farm
er's point of view, and not as coming
from one without or with, political
"hopes."
The Doctor is the same genial compan
ion to meet, and Is as entertaining and
bright as ever. He left for Raleigh last

The latest and most extravagant nov

of bamboo finely shredded and closely
woven.
There is only one shape, a large,
round sailor with a crushed crown and
a rolling brim.
It comes in the natural tone of the
bamboo and occasionally In colors.
The decorations are somewhat strik
ing, consisting of a scarf or lace straw
touched with some bright color blue,
green or cerise and a generous cluster
of fruit pears, peaches or grapes. The
fruit is startlingly realistic.

Stateaville Landmark.
Some of the newspapers, notably the
Greensboro Record and the Raleigh
Times, are disposed to ridicule Gov, Ay
eock'a appointment of W H Bagley, of
Raleigh, a a director of the Atlantic
and North Carolina Railroad. The ap
pointment hardly seems a fitting one,but
at this distance the Landwark is not
well enough informed to pass an opla
Ion, However, we have noticed that the
management of the Atlantic and North
Carolina Railroad I a sort of family af
fair. The State controls the road and
about all the people of prominence in
that section of the State Who have a pall
with the State administration either ride
free with their families over the road at
all time, or have some sort of a job on
the road, tome sort of official connection
with It by means of which they get free
rides for themselves, their friends and all
their connections, and also get paid for
doing nothing. An examination of the
Auditor's report sometimes reveals pay
meat for to called service to the State
that cause one to wonder.'
First Cotton Brought to Market.
The first cotton of the season was
bought at the Cotton Exchange yester
day, Mr A B Dawson having the honor
of depositing seven bales of the white
commodity at the platform. It was of
high grade and brought twelve cents a

Mr Dawson Is generally among the

His crops are always found not only to
be among the first to be harvested but
they are also among the best natural and
heaviest In this seotlon.
