Mr. W. l llolman, receiver of the News and Observer, today sold the property and franchise of the News and Observer. Mr. Frank Stronach was auctioneer. The sale was adver tised to take place at noon at the court house door but was postponed until 2 p. m. at the office. Mr. llolman announced the Chronicle was not iuclnded in the sale. J. N. Hold ing, Esq., a creditor, notified the re ceiver that he would hold him respon sible for his failure to sell whatever interest the News and Observer might have in it. The property was sold in detail ; first, the presses, type, tc, bringing in the aggregate $2,255; the franchise, good will, subscription books, &:., of the News-Observer,daily and weekly, brought $500. After selling the News-Observer name, good will, subscription list, &c, for $500, the receiver sold separately whatever interest the News-Observer had in the Chronicle, which brought $10. It was then announced that the property would be sold as a whole at an spset bid. Afttr J. N, Holding, Esq., had bid as high as $6,700 the sale was ad journed until 7 p. in. There were three bidders, R. T. Gray, Esq., Mr. Whitaker and Mr. Tomlinsori for S.W. Holman, and Mr. Holding for Edwards & Broiigliton. The adjournment un til this evening is to give some of the bidders more time. . . Needed Improvements. The improvements of the interior of the market have been proposed several years, but though greatly needed have never been made. They include the removal of the centre stalls and an increase by some four feet of the width of the side stalls. The floor ought to be of asphalt, inclined to ward the middle so that it can readily be. flushed with water which would readily pass off into the sewer. It is a strange thing to say, but true nevertheless, that the city has never put water in its market building. Why it has not been done no one appears to know. .'-.'. Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin. The reports of correspondents of the weekly crop bulletin, issued by the North Carolina state weather ser vice for the week ending Monday, July 16, 1894, indicate that the past week has not been as favorable as the proceeding' one. Some cool nights occurred at the beginning, but the better part of the week was warm enough. There was the; normal amount of sunshine. The rainfall has been deficient everywhere and all crops are begining to need rain, which if timely will assure a fine crop of corn. Beneficial showers fell in the central district on Sunday, and it is probable that plenty of rain will fall the coming week. Road Improvements. Mecklenburg county leads in the matter of permanent improvements of public roads. Wake follows and this county is now making progress, that is so far as Raleigh township is con cerned, since the other townships, with the exception of Swift creek, have as yet done nothing. Orange county is now moving in this most important matter, and will on the 24th have a road meeting at Chapel Hill, which Prof. J. A. Holmes will address. The next day the county commissioners and others will go to Durham and see the work being done in that town. The day afterwards they will come here and supervisor McMackin will show them the excellent roads in Ralegh township and the methods of building them. . . ii' Mayor's Court Notes.

Hi9 body was examined, but the only exterior signs of the lightning's work were two places where the skin was broken, one on the arm, the other on the leg, each break being about the size of a buckshot.

One section of the shed was de stroyed and 350 bales of cotton badly damaged. The firemen had lively work. The members of the warehouse company are Borden, Weill and oth ers. The lightning struck a telegraph pole in fifty yards of a Southern railway train which was standing at the depot. SHOT FOR JEALOUSY. Robert Loiin Kills Two Men. then His Wife Shoots Him. Lovki.ock, Nevada, July 15, As the result of a husband's jealousy three men have been killed near here. Rob ert Logan shot Dan Lovelock and Fred Sullivan, and was in turn killed by his wife to save her own life. Mrs. Logan had applied for a divorce and her husband was insanely jealous of her, threatening to kill some of her men friends. A few days ago Mrs. Logan went to Cottonwood to visit her mother. Logan followed, and that night attacked and severely wounded Dan Lovelock, a stage driver. Love lock was unable to return, so Mrs. Lo gan brought the stage back. She re turned to Cottonwood to bring Love lock home. Mrs. Logan drove, with the wounded man on the seat beside her. Fred Sullivan, a stranger, rode in a rear seat. About dusk Logan rode up on horseback. He was armed with a Winchester, and ordered his wife to leave the stage and go with him. She refused, saying she was go ing home. Logan then said he would go, too, and rode on behind. They rode along for two hours, svhen Mrs. Logan heard a shot, and, turning, saw Sullivan fall dead with a bullet through his heart. He had been shot in the back by Logan. Then tke murderer shot Lovelock, who was too weak to defend himself, and fell dead in Mrs. Logan's lap, Logan then got on the stage, and, taking the reins from his wife, drove to a well five miles distant, into which he said he intended to throw the bodies of the murdered men, after which he would kill his wife. However, she persuaded him to water the horses first, and as Logan stooped to secure a bucket from under the stage, Mrs.; Logan took a pistol from Lovelock's pecket and when he rose shot him. He begged for mercy, but, taking careful aim, she fired: again, and Logan fell behind the stage. Mrs. Logan dismounted and j fired one more shot into her husband's j prostrate form to make sure he was ; dead. Leaving Logan's body lying in the dust, the woman drove into town with the other dead men and told the news Lovelock was a stage proprietor and driver, and although well acquainted with Mrs. Logan, had never been sus pected of intimacy with her. Sullivan was an entire stranger. The people denounce Logan as a coward and com mend Mrs. Logan's deed. The Weather Report. For North Carolina: Fair except showers in western portion tonight.
