There were no cases for mayor Bad ger to settle this morning. The governor has appointed William S. Granby a notary public, There will be services as usual at Christ church tomorrow. This morning at 5 o'clock, by act ual count, there were 40 wagons on the market loaded with watermelons. Some of them wer very fine ones. It will be finest of the season aud the cheapest only four dollars to Asheville and return, on July 24th. Don't get the date mixed. The capital city cycle club came out yesterday afternoon for tlm first time since their new uniforms came. They were about twenty-five strong and pri.teuted a fine appearance. A special to the Charlotte Observer says that Mt. Airy is unaffected by the great strike and that the stone for the confederate monument is rapidly being gotten out. Orange Page, the condemned mur derer, has given up all hope of re prieve or pardon and has resigned himself to his fate. It is less than two weeks before day fixed for his execu tion. Rev. D. H. Tuttle returned to the city this p. in., from district confer ence at Oxford and will fill his pul pit tomorrow at the usual hours. All invited, especially strangers who are in the city. The Durham Times has made its ap pearance. Mr. A. Hatchet is editor and publisher. The Times a 28 col umn paper, is sold at $1.50 a year and is one of the neatest looking papers ever printed in Durham. Get a copy of it. . . Passengers from below today report the startling intelligence that Col. Jired. A. Olds has turned out his side whiskers and gone to smoking eigarett. It is to be hoped that the colonel will do nothing rash while he is absent from the city. Deputy sheriff Walters left two days ago for a business trip to the eastern part of the county. He reports that the crops in that section were in a flourishing condition; he especially noted, however, the crops on the farm of Charlie Hinton, the popular clerk in the governor's office. Mr. R. ' M. Utzman, who keeps a store on the eorner of West Jones and North Dawson streets, is a tomato raiser "from a way back." He had three on exhibition at his store today which weighed four pounds and ten ounces. The largest weighed one pound and 13 ounces, A very enjoyable reception was given last Thursday evening at Chap el Hill by president Winston, com plimentary to the students of the sum mer school. Tne Durham Sun, of yesterday, says that elegant refresh ments were served by Mr. A. Dughi, Raleigh's popular caterer. Prof. W. F.

The Charlotte News says: A sub scription list was passed around to the charitable today asking aid to send Mrs. Mary McCully to the Keely insti tute to be cured of the opium and morphine habit. ' She Las been a vic tim of this disease for several years, and is now in a pitiable condition. She can drink a pink a pint of lauda num a day, and will use nearly a dol lar's worth of morphine a week if she gets as much as she wants. Fin Yellow Bananas 75o to $1 per bunch at D. T. Johnson's. JOCK. The Great American Slack Wire Walker. Raleigh probably has the greatest curiosity in the state iu the shape of a uiouker. Ii eouud rather disre spectful to speak of Mr. Ed. Denton's "oJc.k" as a monkey. Professional acrobat or wire performer would be a much more suitable term, but as the Simian does not speak "United States," it is necessary to speak of him as such. If it were not for "Jock" and his pranks it is difficult to imagine what the "Coxey army" delegation in Raleigh would do for amusement. Jock's habits are regular in the ex treme. He awakes at 7:30 iu the morning and takes his "cocktail" as an appetizer. Then he prepares his toilet and eats breakfast, after which he takes a short nap. His daily wire walking . exhibitions take place promptly at 10:35 in the morning ond 1:15 in the afternoon. Jock is none of your amateur walkers. He carries no pole other than that far-reaching and all-feeling cordal appendage of his; and, while giving his exhibitions, varies the performance by all sorts of acrobatic feats. In case of accident the ever present tail comes into play. It is sad to relate that such a good all round fellow as Jock should be loose in his moral character, but such is the case, for, besides being a confirmed drunkard and a good subject for Keely, he is also a kleptomaniac. At first he confined his operations to stealing molasses from the window over Smith's tobacco store, but when he commenced visiting the fruit stores of Messrs. Dughi and Riggan his "goose was cooked," that is,, for a while. Both of these gentlemen sent Mr. Denton good sized bills for fruit, and Jock was thrown into chains and kept in solitary confinement for sev eral days, during which time he lan guished greatly and consoled himself with beer and cigarettes. After he was released Jock took the lesson to heart and since that time has amused himself by swirrfing on the three golden balls over the shop of "Our Uncle" around Battle's corner. Taken all in all Jock, in spite of his bad habits is a philanthropist, in that he never has the.blues, or curses the weather and every day raises the drooping spirits of rich and poor alike by his many wonderful antics on the wires, all of which he does simply through love for his fellow man, "free gratis for nothing." ' She Wanted New Shoes. She went into Sherwood's store, asked to see shoes, but didn't want any like those she had on. Why, said the proprietor? Because I bought those last September. They last too long; they are good now not a break in them, comfortable and easy; but I like new shoes occasionally, and positively do not want another pair like them. Her husband standing by said: If they are so good, why not buy another pair. No, she said. But Mr. Hutchings, with a kindly feeling for the man who pays the bill, fitted her again beautifully with a different shape and last but of the same make, and holds himself ready to answer her abuse at some distant day for "stick ing" her with a good pair of the same shoes. They were Blaker, Gerscle & Co.'s "Cincinnati make" and fully warranteed in every respect. "Thought They Looked Pale" When the Blues were embarking for Morehead Monday evening of last week, says the Statesville Landmark, Jim Setzer, colored, was at the depot, and seeing two 'other companies of military on the train, inquired of Bar ber Murphy, in a serious tone, what it all meant; he had never heard of the encampment and didn't under stand it. "Didn't you know there was war out West?" answered Murphy by way of reply. " No," answered Jim, " but I thought dey looked migh ty pale." Finest New York State cremerv but- tor at Torhbk St Wtkhh's.

D., president of Davidson college, will deliver an address in Metropolitan hall Thurs day, July 26, at 8:15 p. m subject "Christian Education." This distinguished lecturer was se cured for the occasion by the local alumni of Wake Forest college. The admission will be free and every one is cordially invited. The well known ability of the speak er, the prominent part he takes in ed ucational affairs, the great interest that is now centered on the actions of denominational educators, assures us that Dr. Shearer will face a full house. It's going to be a Jim Dandy, so ev erybody says who went with Daniels and Pippin last year to Asheville; and only four dollars. Train leaves the 24th of July and returns on the 28tb, and leaves at such a nic.e hour, ten o'clock in the morning.- Are'nt you going? You can get your tickets now at J. Y. MacRae's.

Tucker's right hand colored man, has returned from Philadelphia where he has been making a study of carpet cutting, &c, in the largo em porium of Strawbridge &' Clothier. Tom is now probably the best posted man in North Carolina in his line. Very little attention is just at pres ent being paid to local politics in this county. It is generally understood that the same county officers who are now serving will be re-nominated -by the democrats. Certainly no new can didates have been mentioned yet. The populists have almost a score of can didates for almost every office to be tilled. The "Quarrel among the Flowers," a beautiful little cantata, was given last night at the residence of Mrs. D. J. Mood to a crowded house. N All the little children did well, and the scene was one of beauty. There were others who sang and recited to the delight of all. Master Clarence Coley was heartily encored. A very large crowd were present, and enjoyed cream and cake after the music. The entertain ment was arranged by Miss Gertie Thiem and Mrs. J. L.
