A GRAND SHOWING MADE BY THE SOUTHERN. Here are Some Facts for Busi ness Men to Read. One. member of the "Southern" Raleigh branch bait aid $750 in monthly iniitaliuentii, and -an to- morrow, if he want to, withdraw $906 25 a clear profit of $150.25. bliow me any other association who can beat thin. Another member who had paid $312 ud wanted bin money, got it and (07.65 more than he paid in. I Mold this stock right here in Raleigh didn't even have to withdraw it and the party who bought it made $75.00 iu clean cash as to maturity. He promptly Raid, "give me ten more shares aud started again; and he is one of the bent business men and owns property up into the thousands. Hensible man noue like the Southern. AKB YOU MOKTUAUED? Have you been paying interest for several jears and still owe the same? Don't you want to pay off yoTir mort gage and not miss tlie payments? 1 will let you have the money aud give you seven years time and only charge yon 0 per cent interest. Call on C. C. McDonald.

C. .McDonald, who will give you a delluite contract. Von know exactly to a cent what you may expcd to pay and you make so many payments and no more. LISTEN'. Another party wanted $200 a few days ago. 1 placed his stock, which is drawing 1U per cent interest, as security aud got him $200 for ninety days, at only 8 per cent, which is a net protit of 2 per cent 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 so, 1 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 you some stock which has been running three years and on which $123.50 has been paid iu and un which the Building and Loan offers $111.68. Isn't this liberal. Suppose this same stock was in the Southern of Knoxwille, what would it be worth ill cash today ? $142.02 $18.52 more than was paid in. None to equal the Southern.

"Are you in it ?" If not, and "don't want to get left," call aud take live, ten or twenty shares Sold 90 shares to three men since July "They will have it," and walk up and take it; don't even have to look them up. 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 iu 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 and . interest besides.

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 of your saving something and paying you a handsomer profit (75c. per week will carry live shares, aud in seven years you have $500) than any any other in vestment, I cheerfully recommend it to the citizens of Raleigh as safe, sure nd seoure.

The News and Observer will shortly resolve itself practically into a Raleigh-Durham paper.

Jenkins, late of the Durham Globe and well known as a hustling newspaper man. The paper will. leave Raleigh by the 5:45 a. m. train and be delivered to.both its Ral eigh and Durham subscribers simulta neously.

The 21st weekly weather crop bul letin says the past week was dry until the latter part, when some showers oc curred. The temperature has been slightly below the normal, with warm days and cool nights. More sunshine would be favorable for maturing crops. Most of the week was cloudy. Cotton picking has begun along the southern border. In the eastern district much pro gress is made in saving fodder. Some shedding and rust of ootton were re ported. Cotton is well boiled, but the plants are so weedy that it is feared the bottom bolls, being so much shaded, will not open. Some reports come in of worms injuring tobacco, Tobacco cures are generally good. The peanut crop is excellent. In the central district there are a few com plaints of cotton shedding. Fall ploughing and sowing of oats are in progress. Tobacco is yellowing nicely and cares are good. ; ; In the western district cotton is opening slowly, Picking will not be gin beforeUie first week of September.

Young, superintendent of the institution for the blind, says that 100 more white blind pupils will at tend next term, and that these will take the place of 100 deaf-mutes who go to Morganton. A good many re plies to the inquiries regarding the number and .names of blind children in the various counties are coining in. One of the queer things in the state museum is an iguna or edible lizard, 18 inches in length. Two years ago it was found under the academy of music. How it got there is a mys tery. It is a native of Central aud South America. Perhaps it got away from Pawnee Bill's wild west show or it may have come in a bunch of bananas.- - .- , Saturday night a chicken thief came near being caught. He had made a raid on the premises of Mr. W. J. Hicks, at the corner of West Edenton and North Dawson streets, and had six fowls in a bag. The policeman called to him to halt but the thief dropped the chickens and made a break. One shot was ilred, but never touched him. Some people have an idea that chicken thieves are invisible, but this one was certainly seen. Several bicyclists, among them Messrs. W. H. King, Virgil Stone, Neill Spence and Samuel Heller, left early yesterday morning on their "bikes" for Goldsboro. The rain yesterday prevented their return and they; arrived this afternoon on the train. , A telegram received today from one of the party made a argent appeal for wearing apparel in place of the bicycle "togs" in which the party were attired.

Early this morning two extra pas senger trains, running as sections of the vestibuled tr .in. passed here hound north on the S. A. L. Ou board were passengers on the way to Washington to the Pythian conclave. On the Upchurch farm near the water works is some of the largest cotton ever seen in this section. Mixed with it is sea island cotton. Tlw two here and there have crossed and the hybrid plant presents a very appearance. Yesterday was a poor one for Id the street cars on account of the rainy afternoon. It is gratifying to note the manner in which the cars are be ing patronized. They are almost a necessity and if the present patronage is continued they will pay and the owners will rapidly extend the lines. To the Lovers of Baseball. Correspondence: I see that captain Brinig, of the Raleigh baseball club, failed to accept the challenge of the second team, and proposes to play us or demands that we play for a purse of $50. 1 would like to say that last Thursday I was asked if I could play on a team against the one which went to Henderson. I consuuted on these grounds: First, that we admit ladies free; second that we contribute half of the gate receipts, in excess of ex penses of the game.to the Confederate monument fund. If captain Brinig insistB and will play the team he car- nod to Henderson, 1 will play one game as he demrnds. R. 1 DlCKrXlX, Manager Second. Team. Notes From Merry Oaks. Murky Oaks, N. C, August 27.

C, and Matthew Yates, of Williams mill, N.C., spent Saturday night and Sunday in our village. ' A year ago hogs were very scarce in this section.

Washington, Aug. 26. An - unwel come house-wanning was given the Knights of Pythias encamped in the "White City" of tents around the Washington monument this afternoon. It came in the form of a fierce thunder-shower, which swept over the city almost without warning, and then set tled into a study rain. Several tent were dismantled by the downpour which beat against them, and the lightning was unpleasantly sharp. All of the discomforts incidental to the storm were accepted in hilarious mood by the knights, however, and they made fun under the canvases, as well as outside, after the first drench ing wave of rain had passed over. President Cleveland has .-, definitely promised to review the grand parade on Tuesday. A rev'ewing stand will be erected for him in front of the ex ecutive mansion General Carnahan and his staff will review the parade on horseback. The Last Chance.
