It is to . be hoped that they will be successful in satisfactorily arranging to bring these Visitors to this section. Many of Urn residents of the city have already begun to decorate their homes and business houses in honor of the Agricultural and Stock Exhibit which will be held here on November 22dand 23d.

Several weeks ago there appeared in the Journal a local item in regards to a banana tree which is located on Mr, J, C, Whitty 's premises on South Front - street.

The price of these cars is very low and the quality is the very best The weather bureau has sent out in formation that another cold wave is headed in this direction and will doubt less reach this section by Friday or Saturday. If you have not already on hand a sufficient supply of fuel to enable you to keep warm in ease this cold weather arrives as predicted, better ' telephone your coal and wood dealer to supply you with these necessities at Once and avoid being frozen but During the past few days a number of boats have arrived in port heavily loadud with cargoes of merchandise from northern ports, and which was consigned to local dealers. The rates paid for shipments made by water route is much cheaper than when seat by rail and in many cases just about as prompt service is given. There is not the least doubt but that a boat line from New Bern to some northern port would prove to be a highly remunerative in vestment.

In addition to anti-trust legislation, the Judiciary Committee also haa de cided upon revision, of the injunction statutes and the laws regulating Indi rect contempt eases. "The coming session of Congress is by no means to be overshadowed by tariff legislation," said Representative Henry in speaking of the plana of the Judiciary Committee "Of course, the tariff revision will be of great import ance, but it will not minimize other problems before the House," " Representative Clayton, of Alabama, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, who had been conferring with Repre sentative Henry and other members during the recess, is expected in Wash ington within a few days, when work already begun on the bill amending the Sherman law, will be resumed. .

The "duikers' Colony" at the Uni ted Status penitentiary has lost almost one-naif of its population through the operation' of the Parole law. When the law became effective the "Bankers' Colony numbered forty men and it now includes but 24. s-.r , , ' The present populati n v Includes 2 presidents, 1 vice-president, 8 cashiers, 2 assistant eashie, 6 tellers, 2 book keepers and 3 clerks, serving sentences varying from 15 years in the case of William W. Montgomery, former cash ier of the First National Bank of Pitts burgh, to one year and one day. i Several of the bankers remaining are expecting early release, and several others will be eligible to appsar . at the next meeting of the board in January, A few applications for parole by banker prisoners have been rejected and they mutt serve their full sentences, , less "good-time" allowance. ' " ' During the present year but 6 men connected with the national banks have been received at the' penitentiary, the smallest number received since 1907, when 4 came in. Whether national bankers are becoming honest or wheth er they have become more expert in covering up their peculations, the pris on officials are not prepared to say. ". Only one banker ia due to leave this year by expiration of sentence. He is Herman Genns, of Houston, Tex., who will be released Dee. 26th. Two are due to leave in 1912, while the last of the present liet, unless bis "term is shortened by parole or commutation, will leave Dee. 24, 1918. - .y As a rule the banker convicts are the best behaved in the prison, only I hav ing violated a rule of sufficient impor tance to merit solitary confinement This man has applied for parole but his application has been rejected. " ; " . Nearly all of the convict clerical and stenographic positions at the prison are held by former bankers. With one ex ception all are "trusties," and now that the bankers are going, former bob tal employees are getting the clerical jobs. : vyfi -y." .-v.- The "Bankers' Colony" occupies rooms o ver the office of the deputy war den, each banker having a room-mate, The rooms are better furnished than ordinary cells, the windows having white curtains, and each man can, un der certain limitations, furnish his own room. The rooms are not locked nights. After they retire to their rooms at the close of the day's work the bankers are free to visit each other, under cer tain restrictions. . After the cell houses are locked the bankers spend the hour from 8 to 7 in the yard In summer. Most of these men were doing clerical duty and needed an hour's exercise in the open air, ' .

Lit' Arthur told the Mayor that his oil.had given out un' expectedly, and that he was hrmeward bound to replenish the . tanks when the guardians of the law espied him. But alack also alas, he was told that ow ing to the fact that he bad been so neg ligent of keeping his illuminators prop erly supplied with fuel, so that he would be prepared to. light up at any minute, he would- be permitted to contribute $2.35 to theeity. , . . Samuel Richardstn, another member of the dusky tribe, imbibed too freely of "rejovenator" on Monday night and continued his celebration until the first small streaks of spproschlng day began to appear above the eastern horizon.
