D.T.Swindell. FLAT on tub Floor. You want 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 uutil 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 and had them shipped right out regardless of the tariff and they will try to argue you into believ ing the tariff don't affect carpets right away. This is not true. In 10 days from day of passage it goes into effect And yon 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, D.T.Swindell. Finest New York State oremery but (w M : : ; . .

The negro the police here are after who is wanted for attempting to out rage a 17-year-old colored girl named Cross, is named Hockaday. The democrats say they are pleased at the fusion of the populists aud re publicans. The latter also express their pleasure, so nil hands are suited. Next Monday the fall term of that excellent school, the Raleigh male academy, begins. The outloook is good for continued increase iu the number of students. At the home of Mr. Pulaski Cowper, on Kayetteville stree, last evening Miss Mamie Cowper gave a lawn party in compliment to Miss Lizzie Hill, of Portsmouth, Va.

Spears, republican nomi nee for congress in the third district, says there is not a word of truth in the report that he will withdraw. H. P. Cheatham, republican congres sional candidate in the second district, says he will positively not withdraw. There is an old, old saying that for every fog in August there will be a snow during the following winter. If this be true there will be eight snows next winter. A careful observer ays there were fogs on the 1st, 2d, Sth, 17th, 18th, 29i,h, 30th and 31st. I'hose on the 1st, 8th and 17th were heavy, that un the 18th very heavy, and the others light.

Four cards (spades) are displayed on the face of the stamp, the inscription being "Playing Cards on hand August, 1894. Two cents. It is a matter of regret that the directors of the insane asylum at their meeting day before yesterday did not decide to borrow the needed $5,000 to equip the new female building and maintain 75 more females. A ma jority of the board did not know whether the legislature would endorse this step and make good the amount, so the whole matter goes over until the board meets in December. It will now be March before the building can bt occupied. RALEIGH WINS. Capt. Bernlg's Men Do Up Wake Forest by a Large Score. About 3 o'clock yesterday after noon a crowd of young men went up Fayetteville street sinking hilariously, and giving the familiar Wake Forest yell. Later in the after n they came back quietly, wcut to the John ston street depot and took the train for home. As has no doubt been sur mised, they were the Wake Forest baseball team (and a few admirers) who crosned bats with Raleigh. Mr. Mills is a good pitcher, no doubt, but the Raleigh team is composed of bat ters against whom Mills' curves availed nothing, in the six innings played the Raleigh team cracked out eleven clean hits, of which three were good for home runs, one a three bag ger and one a two base hit.a total of 23 bases. While the Raleigh team was tiring itself out making home runs ud running bases Wake Forest piled p a score of two runs and two hits. Wadkins, Raleigh's pitcher, was well igh irtviucible. The Wake Forest team scored its only runs in the third nuing, when Kimball made homer" Score: Raleigh 14, Wake Forest 2. THE COTTON SEASON ENDS, A Comparison of Receipts for some Years.
