Some quite large and important reaj estate and building transact'ona have taken place in Jthia city within a few dayt, and more are involved, and now taking place, these latter being hew buildings. The real estate transaction is the purchase of what is best known, locally, as the Bell property, which is situated on South Front street, south side of street and adjoins the A, & N.

Mr. Wol fenden will build another story on the brick building and extend same in the rear, tearing down the frame buildings, erecting in their place a three story brick warehouse 60x200 Jfeet. Jhis warehouse will extend nearly to the dock,a passage way being left between the building and river, and along this will be run a track from the A. & N. C road, so that freight can be handled .direct to the warehouse or on boats. The warehouse will be modern in its construction, with elevators, etc, for business needs. On South Front street Mr. S. M.

C, March 16. Governor Glenn and Attorney General Gilmer are negotitating with the representatives of South Dakota for the settlement ' of the bono judgment that State hold? against North Carolina. They ate dt; manding the payment of the full amouiu of the judgment and an effort is being made to effect a settlement more ad vantageous to this State. Commissioner of Agriculture 3. L. Patterson says that during the past year over five hundred samples of feed stuffy were gathered in various parts of the State and subjected to micros copic investigation-with the result that the sale of a large number of adulter ated feeds was stopped. He says adul teration has been stopped to a very large extent' '.' ,, Work is to begin at once on the ex tension of the Raleigh' & Cape Fear Railroad from Lillington, . in Harnett county, to Fayetteville so that it is' ex pected by president and general man ager J. A. Mills that trains will be run ning through from Raleigh to Fayette ville within a year.' The contract was let last night for the construction of a fine iron bridge across the Cape Fear river at Lillington. . : It has been decided to locate the new Chemical building for the State Uni versity on the eastern section of the ampus. , It will face west and be - al most directly opposite the Mary Ann Smith building. It ' is to cost $40,000 and it is expected that it will be com pleted by early winter. . : The 136th North Carolina report has just come from the State Printers. There still remain 368 pages of the re ports of the Fall of 1904 decisions that must bo included in the 137th report rhese have already been -edited, thus :oncludinir the work of Mr. Zeb Vance Walser, the, retiring court reporter, nd the remainder of the 137th will be levoted to the cases of the present term as "reported by 3.

The unofficial report of the Corpora tion Commission which has just been over the A. & N. C, road on an inspec tion trip, sounds very tame, from a pro gressive point of view.' They saw men I at work in places, noticed new ties be ing placed in quantities, the latter indi cating that new rails were to be laid. Of course the Commission were well en tertained on the trip. ,-" ' There is some business in the local cotton market, . sales are now being made at 7.65. . . ' " The colored pickers are still gathering up odds and ends from the ruins of ; the two burned stores on Pollock street. While a good part of this rubbish , is taken to the houses of the pickers, yet the streets all over the city bear witnes that a good deal is dropped and this is a public nuisance. : , , , " The record in the matter of white deaths in this city is a remarkable one for the past month, not one reported since February 10th. Is it the skill of the physicions, or the wonderful health of this place, or both? , At the Mayor's Court yesterday, Wil Katrt' Steward, colored, and William Adams, white, were up for disorderly conduct, judgment being suspended in both cases upon payment of costs. This being St Patrick's Day, the Seventeenth of Ireland, all good and true Irish will wear the token, green, in respect to the departed Saint, of blessed memory. ' " ' ' The rummage sale bids fair to being one of the biggest bargain sales of the season. The ladies on the library com mittee are kept busy selling the arti cles as the store was crowded all day yesterday,5 Anything can be bought from wearing apparel , to jewelry set with pearls and other1 precious stones. Don't fail to come and get your bar gains.:' The sale will continue until Sat urday at the store next door to Suter's furniture store, . The next entertainment in - the Ly ceum Course will be given tomorrow, Saturday, night, at the New . Masonic Theatre. Mr. Fred Emerson ; Brooks, will deliver a lecture which is said to prove of great interest to all who have heard it Seats ean be secured at Waters. ,-" - - The Schooner Sallie P. Btswick, Capt Dickinson, cleared from here yesterday loaded with lumber from the Pine Lum ber Company's Mill The Victor C, Records, Capt. .Griffith, also cleared with lumber f ro n the Goldsboro Lum ber Company. ' . ; . Some of the carpenters are complain ing of the scarcity of work. One of them was heard to say that he was get ting less work than at any one time be fore in two or three years. Adding that during last week he could only secure work enough to employ him half day. . '. ;: ": .. Among the building ' Improvements in prospect, is the remodeling and re pairing of the Oxley store on Broad street. . ' " It is bad that the city cannot afford to have permanent repairs made to the main streets, Such repairs si art now made, while of some little help, is like throwing money away. The holes in Broad street are now being filled with brickbats which on "first thought might be supposed good material to fill them with, but reflection will show that the bricks being harder than the adjoiinng surface, they become to some extent an obstruction to wit: As one wheel of a vehicle passes over the harder surface a jar is producod which causes the op posite wheel to cut a rut in the softer surface. Thus filling a hole with such unfit material is to create another hole as bad or worse. A Swannboro correspondent writes that potatoes, peas and other vegeta- 5,33.1 J I .3 Cct.

I. i i ' lies are up and growing finely down there, which is a great deal more than can be said for this neighborhood. Thus far spring crops have been unusually ( backward, both in the planting and; coming up, and very little of , anything is growing only under covers. News reached here Thursday of the death of B. F, Dink ins, of Vanceboro. Mr. Dink ins was a prominent farmer of this county and a valued citizen of his community and was a Knight of Har mony. Some representatives of that fraternity from New Bern will go to Vanceboro today to attend the funeral. When the water pressure ' was so slack it was claimed by some who was supposed to know what the trouble was that it was caused by people leaving spigets open. 'Yet a aldid pipe at one of the most prominent corners was al lowed to leak yesterday until quite a pond was formed, although several per sons who are supposed to ; be employed by the water works department were seen to pass by, making no effort to stop the leak.. , The. Kinston Free Press givea the de tails of a most pitable case of destitu tion recently discovered in that city, which it deplores. Such cases are sad indeed, but it is good to note that they are rare.: We have now and then a case in New Bern, but the Benevolent So ciety, blessings on it, are constantly on the alert to give promptj-elief and in many cases in its vigilance, prevent the destitution by seeking out those in need and giving timely assistance. The ladies who conducted the Rum mage Sale Thursday, were well pleased over the success of theiif venture (?) although the stock was almost as large as varied, it was depleted 'nearly to ex haustion by the sales of one day and the sellers now desire that theiij store" be again replenished. . The Bale is being conducted for a good cause, that of the circulating library, and those who are interested in tits success can render mucn assistance by giving as many ar ticles for the ' sale as is convenient Nearly every one hasa lot of useless trumpery lying around that could very well bespared besides clothing long since discarded which somebody would be glad to buy.. It is said that clothing sold more readily yesterday than did most any other article. ' v S" , Don't fail to be at the entertainment by the Ladies Aid Society tonight at the residence of Mr. J. S. Basnight for the benefit of the ChriHtiaivChurch. All are invited to attend and enjoy a social evening. Refreshments will be sold. Congressman and Mrs. Charles R. Thomas were here yesterday en route frow Washington, D. C, to Hillsboro, to visit From there they go to then home at New Bern.

X Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. 35 cents, Tea or Tablets.' An Instructive Performance. , In Archie L. Shepard's high class Moving Pictures at the New Masonic Theatre Wednesday March 22nd, a most unique and refined entertainment is of fered, which, while being highly in structive and a potent fact education ally, is the most enjoyable means of amusement devised. . , The illimitable opportunities afforded in" this wide field of artistic enterprise is taken advantage of to the fullest extent and every ave nue open has been searched to an in finitesimal degree to gather all that is beautiful, weird, humorous,' poetical, thrilling and wonderful in the several spheres of existence to interest the eye and mind.-' Every quarter of the globe has been ransacked for novelties and all are faithfully reproduced from life at an enormous expense. By this we mean one is brought in close con tact with all the glorious beauties of the world: the pyramids of the Nile in Egypt; the ancient temples of the Nile; ancient and modern Rome; Naples and Vesuvius in angry mood, belching forth fire and lava; Nice, with" her gorgeous festivals; beautiful Venice, by moon light from a passing gondola, are all to be found in this largest and costliest collection of moving pictures n the world.

It is reported the Japanese occupied Tie Pass at mid night The details of the - occupation have not yet been received from im perial army head quarters-:' ;'The offi cial bulletin reports the action and says the Japanese are in hot pursuit of the retreating Russians. 7 ' St. Petersburg, March 16. The news from the front is again very -serious. Oyama in spite of the exhaustion of his forces has been able to organize a fresh turning movement in the hope of com pleting the victory won under the hills of Mukden. Tuesday's attack on the Russian advance line at Cau river is now evident as only a feint while the Japanese columns were being worked around to get in position to fall upon the Russian rear, . and yesterday the blow was struck. That Kuropatkin was taken by surprise is a fair infer ence from the manner in which he abandoned his Fan river position Tues day night leaving so hurriedly- that he was again obliged to burn his stores. You will need to' prepare your sys tem for the coming hot weather, gtt your organs to work like clock work. Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea taken this month will do the business. . 35 cents, Tea or Tablets. F. S. Duffy.'V Testimonials as to Dr. Taylor Work In Texas. Dr. Taylor's lectures in Fort Worth were given under the auspices of the W. C. T. U. the Ministers' Association of Fort Worth co-operating. ' - The lec tures proved to be of deep Interest and of permanent value. Dr. Taylor is master of his subject. His logic is all that one could ask. . In all of his bear ings he impresses you that he Christ ian gentleman. In our judgment, the towns which can secure him cannot afford to fail to do so. 1 s'i-j Ui We can recommend him as being one of the best temperance lecturers;, we have ever heard. , He does not follow the old 'beaten paths, but gives the latest and best scientific temperance facts. We heartily commend him to the pastors and churches of Texas. . y ; (Signed) Rev. LUTHER LI1TLE, Pastor First Baptist Church. '1 and ten other pastors. The pastors at Sherman, having heard Dr. Taylor in five lectures, unite in hearty endorsement of the above testimonial from Fort Worth, and would add that we find his lectures so broad in Christian citizenship, so de void of partisan politics and so directly helpful to the religious work as to lead us to urge all of our pastors and churches in Texas to improve the op portunity of securing them. , " v (Signed) Rev.
