It is about the best More head fake in ten years, when the story about the man being taken up ami away by a bunch of toy balloons wan sent out." OUTRAGED. A Terrible Crime Committed at Burlington. Persons who came down from Bur lington today brought news of a ter rible crime committed near there yes terday morning.

At the monument exercises here to morrow Judge Gaston's song " Caro lina," will be sung. Less than two blocks distance from the platform is the dingy little wooden office in which judge Gaston always lived when here, and in which he wrote this "State song." Speaking of the new physicians li censed, the Greensboro Record says: "There were seventy-five applicants, forty-three of whom passed. Hubert A. Royster, of Raleigh, received the Appleton prize, Htanding the highest of any doctor who has ever been ex amined in the state, receiving a per centage of 98 and 13-1-tths." Messrs. Charles R. Arthur, E. L. Fleming, Fab. Briggs and Bud Hinton had an experience Friday evening they do not care to repeat.' On their way home in a carriage from Houeyctitt's pond they found Panther branch at flood.

Cho- 11 il'YM mtUern wn," 1 Page In Edgecombe Couuty. It is learned from persons who ar rived last evening that Orange Page, the escaped murderer, went to Edge combe county. He was tracked to the farm of the late lr. Tinman while the o fill ers were after him, a negro lired a gun. This was understood to be a signal to Page to make himself scarce and he acted promptly in so doing. There are reasons for belief that he a i II soon be caught. Close the Stores To-morrow. At a joint meeting of the monument committees the following was adopted: "Resolved. That the merchants of the city of Raleigh are hereby requested to honor an occasion so justly memor able in our history as the capital of t he great state of North Carolina, to close their places of business from ID a. in. to 2 p. in., on Tuesday, May 21, that all may participate in the solemn exercises of the day." Civil Service News Notes. 1 lie Washington correspondent of the Charlotte Observer says: "Tin' postoflice committee opposes represen tative Alexander's postal currency bill. That committee will probably report soon a bill providing that there shall be no removal of letter carriers, railway postal and postoflice clerks, except on charges. They will be classilicd. The postmaster general favors such a bill, with powi to sus pend the employe pending trial of the charges. Weather Conditions and Fore cast. The cool wave has spread over the , entire country. It was generally i preceded by rain. A large area of j low piessure is now central overlVnn- sylvania. Ohi , Virginia. North Caro- j lina and Tennessee.

Lo cal forecast: Increasing cloudiness. Rain by Tuesday evening. Warmer. Local data for 24 hours ending 8 a. m. today: Maximum temperature, 62; Minimum temperature, 45; rainfall. 0.00. Railway News Notes. There has very naturally been a great deal of talk about the practical suspension of work last week at the Portsmouth shops of the Seaboard Air Liile, In reply to a question by the council of that town, vice-president John C. Winder says: "We have been reducing our forces in every possible way and in all the shops, as well as in other departments, to a minimum. It is not contemplated to close the shops at Portsmouth, but simply to reduce the force to a minimum until such time as we shall feel justislied in in creasing to what it was before the re duction. It is with unfeigned regret that I felt compelled to take the course we have pursued for the last several mouths in reducing forces to the low est possible n limber, As to taking the work from Portsmouth to Raleigh, there is nothing in it so far as the two places are concerned. Y'ou will readily see that of the two shops it is more to our advantage to have such work as is absolutely necessary for us to do done in the iuterior as near the mid dle of our line as we have our shops." Gathered at the Capitol. Gov. Carr today received $25 for the Vance monument from. Mr. Rob ert L. Steele, of Rockingham, Rich mond county. Mr. Riley E. Phillips, of New Haven, Coniiecticnt,lias a Bible which was taken from the body of Lt. Wil liam K, Lane, of Goldsboro, and which he desires to return to Lane's relatives.
