A GRAND SHOWING MADE BY THE SOUTHERN. Here are Some Facta for Busi ness Men to Read On mem o r of the "Southern" Raleigh Branch has paid $750 in monthly instalments, and ean to morrow, if he want to, withdraw 1906.25 a clear profit of $156.25. Show me any other association who eau beat this. Another member who had paid $312 and wanted his money, got it and (C7.65 more than he paid in. I Hold thin Htock right here "n Raleigh didn't even have to withdraw it and the party who bought it made $75.00 in clean cash ax to maturity. He promptly said, "give me ten more shares and Htarted again; and he iH one of the bent business men and owns property np into the thousands. Sensible man none like the Southern. ARK YOU MORTGAGED? Have you been paying interest for several years aud still owe the same? lon't you want to pay off your mort gage and not miss the payments? 1 will let you have the money and give you seven years time and only charge you 6 per cent interest. Call on C. 0. McDonald. Did you know that It is a fact and can't be contradicted that when ymt borrow money from some B. & L. As sociations you agree to p.iy monthly until stock matures and in this way will pay between two and three hun dred dollars moke than you will pay if you call on C. t'. McDonald, who will give you a definite contract. Von know exactly to a ceut what yon niiiy expect to pay and you make so many payments aud no more." LISTEN, Another party wanted i?200 a few I days ago. 1 placed' his stock, which is drawing 10 per cent interest, as security and got him $200 for ninety days, at only 8 per cent, which is a net profit of 2 per ceut to him, even during loan. 1 challenge any asso ciation which can do as well as the Southern to deny these facts. , Now, did you ever own any stock in other Building and Loan Associations and try to dispose of it and get left, and take less than you paid in ? If ao, I simply mention these facts to show you, as a sensible man, that it is to , your interest to be in the "Southern." .: 1 can show yon some stock which has been running three years and on which $123.50 has been paid in and on which the Building and Loin offers $111.68. Isn't this liberal. Suppose this same stock was in the Southern of Kuoxwille, what would it be worth iu cash today ? $142.02 $18.52 more than was paid in. None to equal the Southern. : HO BETTER NOSE AS U00D. The best and safest investment, th.v can possibly be made. 1 will leave it to your good sense. Call and see for yourself. I will show you over 100 of Raleigh's best citizens who have sub scribed to Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars worth of the Southern's stock. I will show you an investment of one V. 1 1 1 i it . a. oi iiaieigu s Desi nnanciers ana one oi her wealthiest citizeus, who hasr$l,000 of paid-up stock. "Planked down the cash" at one time, and considers it one of his best and safest investments. I will show you 50 shares of stock taken - by another of Raleigh's best citizens, one who you will acknowledge knows how to invest and where to place it. He pays $30 per month and in seven years will have $5,000, and will only have paid $2,540. "Are you in it?" If not, and "don't want to get left," call and take five, ten or twenty shares. Hold 00 shares to three men since July. "They will have it," and walk up and take it; don't even have to look them op. You never hear, or ever will, of any one", giving up the Southern for ' any other association, but I can give you some "eye openers" of those who have come out of others and taken stock in the Southern. The Southern does not loan on its stock, but if you want any money you can get every cent you have paid in uu luiereHd uesiues. uncollect you : never lose anything in the Southern. ; You can draw out in six months if you " want to, and if you want to re-enter you are not charged one cent addi tional; after paying one admission, you go in free afterwards. You can withdraw at 10 per cent interest ad ditional to your monthly payments after stock is twenty-four months old. Show me a, better or safer investment and I will recommend it. Believing the Southern to be the best means pf your saving something and paying you a handsomer profit (75c per week will carry five shares, and in seven years yon have $500) than any any other in. vestment, I cheerfully recommend it .: to the citizens of Raleigh as safe, sure and secure. Three million, five hun dred thousand and six hundred dol lars deposited as security for its . stockholders.. What more can you ask? Where can you find as much? Call on : j. m. jncisonaiu ana get some oi me Southern literature which fully ex plains, so that a child can understand No wild cat attachments. No evasion " of facts.

About two years ago there sprang up in Wake, particularly near Ober lin, a queer religious sect composed of colored people who called themselves the " Holies." Their belief was very similar to that of the Mormons, with the exception that though they be lieved in polygamy, they also believed that a man, if he so desired, could take the wife of any other man he chose, in which case the man who was thui despoiled of a wife had the priv ilege of appropriating the cast-off spouse. The Brigham Young of the order is a man named Wilcox, who lives near Method, and he is now liv ing with the wife of a respectable col ored man of this city, who, although he did not himself belong to the or der, nevertheless fell under the ban of its belief. About a year ago the whole order immigrated, saying that God would feed them with manna as he did the children of Israel. After sev eral of them had been jailed in Nor folk, however, they decided to return Very lately the sect, which now goes under the resounding name of the "Methodist Episcopal Holies," seems to have taken a new lease of life and is rapidly making converts among the more ignorant class of colored people, It 1b said that the whole sect numbers more than 200 persons, but that there are only about twenty-five in this im mediate vicinity. They are all very active and hold numerons meetings All colored men with good wives had better be on the watch. Torbell's oream eheese at - TUW& WlJHS'B. OBSERVATIONS. Tickets for the races will be on sale at McKimuion & Co a drug store. Atteution is specially called to the perfumery sale by Snelling & Hicks. Sampson Audersou, the veteran bar becue man, will lie f.ii hand during the races and will serve up barbecue in up-to-date style. The. Raleigh baseball club has about completed arrangement for several games to be played in a very short while. The stalls in the market are reinoTtd today preparatory to work on the im provements. The owners of the stalls are now scattered all over the city. J lie King s Daughters are raising $25 with which to send to a reforma tory two little white girls who have for months been street nuisances here. Look out for the parade tomorrow by "Black Bess," "Sultan" and "lop." liiack Uess ana Sultan are elegant trick horses and "Yop" is a dog that will delight everybody. The fourth annual August race-meet begins tomorrow and will last two days. The track is in better condition than ever before and with the fine lot of horses entered good time may be expected. The track record is doomed The Russian family which lives southwest of the city, and which was in distress, has been visited and is now out of trouble. The man has secured employment. His wife is not of sound mind. This afternuon Walter Weathers, a young white man, was struck with a bot tle on the cheek by George Branch, col ored, in front of a saloon in the rear of the market. Branch lied. The men had been quarreling. The injury was slight. James Stovall and Louis Stovall, who are charged with the murder of George W. Curtain, in Moore county, have been captured by T. C. Cain and W. Allen, a nd the latter have been paid the reward of $200 for each of the Stovalls which Gov. Carr offered. The finest exhibit ever seen at the state fair will be made this year by Messrs. W. H. & R. S. T ucker & Co: The arrangements for the accommoda tion of what they will show will cost several hundred dollars. Among oth er features will be a case of half a dozen ladies ready made costumes worth about twelve hundred dollars. Barlow Dolson and Powers, who opened the season at the academy of music last evening, pleased the audi ence. The singing, juggling and con tortion features were excellent, the two latter not having been equalled here before. The horseback riding exhi bition was very laughable and th'e varied talents displayed by Milt. Bar low, won him much applause. Farmers A.mance News Notes. The state alliance has reduced the salary of state business agent Worth from $1,600 to $1,200; secretary treas urer Barnes, $1,200 to $1,000; Maj.

Local data for 24 hours ending a. in. today: Maximum temperature 82; Minimum temperature 05; rainfall 0. The pressure is still low off the New Kiiglaud const and it. has also fallen slightly off the south Atlantic coast. An extensive high pressure area exists north of the lake region. The weather is clear except at a very few stations from Charlotte west to Memphis. The following heavy rains occurred yesterday: Charleston 1.10; Boston 2.10 inches. The tempera ture has fallen over the lak region and New England, it appears proba ble that the high area over Marquette w'll move over New England, and that a slight depression will form on the south Atlantic coast which will give conditions favorable for northeast winds and rain. If no storm develops in the south the weather will be fair and cooler ington. predicted by Wash- A Veteran Rogue. Old man J. B.

The distance of the target was about 900 yards, and very few shots missed. Out of nine ot the Charlotte reserves who made shots, six of them put shells in the old hulk. LAT on the Floor. You waut a car pet of some kind this fall. You may want more than one; but listen to me once in your life. Don't buy the car pets until our new ones come, the tariff bill has passed and carpets are reduced wonderfully. We have been waiting for the passage of this bill so we have not bought any carpets. Most merchants went straight on and bought carpets aud had them shipped right out regardless of the tariff and they will try to argue you into believ ing the tariff don't affeet carpets right away. This is not true. In 10 days from day of passage it goes into effect and you can save one quarter of the" price of your carpet if you let good sense prevail. We will have a stock of carpets such as you rarely see. Our buyer is to go to New York this week for carpets. : Yours truly, 1). T. Swindell.
