' 1' Item Gathered In and Around ) the City. The1 board of aldermen meets this eientng. . Thf Mcuppernong crop is a very bsjayy one. Cyrene at the academy of music this evening. The Golds!oro Argus speaks in high terms of Cyrene's performance. Travel on the street cars was heavy yesterday afternoon and evening. A freight train was wrecked at Lex ington yesterday. No one was hurt. It i really too hot to pick cotton. The crop is maturing rapidly these scorching days. The mercury yesterday climbed to 92,i but today went to 93 and broke the September record. Sesretary Ayer says there will be more sideshows at the next state fair than were ever seen here. There is a desk In this office which was used by speakers of the house of representatives until 18G6. St. Mary's and Peace institute will in a few days begin their fall terms, with prospects of increased atten dance. It appears to be settled that Ral eigh has no gift for the city's name sake, the beautiful cruiser Raleigh. On the 6th Anice, the little daugh ter of Robert J. and 1! jn Yates, died here, aged three years and 7 months. Sheriff C. M. Griffiths of Davidson county brought four, convicts to the penitentiary today. A deputy sheriff Drought one from Union county.

Pullen will conduct the ser ices at the Fayetteville street Bap ist church this week. Today the scarlet fever sign was taken down from the boarding house of the Misses Miller, on East Edenton street, the thirty days of quarantine having elapsed. Mayor Badger disposed of one case of disorderly conduct by a fine of $5 and costs this morning. This was the only one of the numerous Monday morning docket that was disposed of. Witnesses were lying mighty low. Up to today the hottest day in Sep tember was02,on the 14th in 1887, the 20th in 1893 and the 9th in 1894. The lowest temperature during any Sep tember was 39 degrees on the 31st in 1888. The "Operator" was the attraction at the academy of music last Saturday evening and the rather small audience was well pleased. The scenic effects were very good but the small stage would allow but little of the company's scenery to be exhibited. Next year sammer amusements ought to be provided at Pullen park or at Brookside. Summer concerts at popular ""prices will certhinly pay. There are many companies which make a specialty of this line of busi ness. A special pavilion will have to be built. Athletic park ought also to be pat in proper shape by next sam mer. The street railway company will no doubt take hold of both these matters. Raleigh sadly lacks sammer amusements. At the bicycle meet at Winston Sat urday William Brewer, of Salem, won the novice race. One mile was won by George Fitzsimmons, of Greensboro; J. T. Temple, of Richmond second. Half mile, was won V Fitzsimmons; C. O. Beck, seoond; Temple, third. Married men's race was won by Frank Hege.

The animal dashed againxt a tree in front of the house of Mr. Watson, at the corner of Saunders and Tucker streets. Both Mr. Dughi aud Tony were thrown out, and with great vio lence. Tony's forehead was cut open, there being a deep gash some five in hes long. He suffered great pain, but bore it bravely. Mr. Dughi, who is quite stout, was worse hurt than bis sou. lie was barely able to speak lasteening. It was thought by the physician that one of his ril'S was broken. A Visitor reporter called at the house and upon inquiring of the attending physiciaj learnedthat the injuries of neither Mr. Dughi nor Tony were serious. Both had a nar row escape. The place of the accident is but a few yards from Tucker's ice pond, and there is a deep ditch. The road cart was only slightly damaged. There were a great many callers at the house, and numerous were the ex pressions of sympathy for the injured. A PLUCKY LOVER. A Runaway Accident Doesn't Keep Him from his Lady Love.

"Dolly" Jones, a colored man who works on Mr. John Doub's farm be yond Crabtree, was committed to jail yesterday on the nominal charge of "disorderly conduct."

She says that some time during Saturday night she awoke and saw a man trying to get in her bureau drawer. She screamed and the burglar fled. She swears that "Dolly"tis the man.

The trial did not take place today for lack of witnesses but will probably be held tomorrow morning A Nuisance. . Raleigh is fully up to metropolitan customs in one way, at least and that, sad to say, is the boisterous "peanut" gallery, AH during the performance of the " Operator" last Saturday evening a boisterous, howl ing coatless mob sat in the gallery and by their load talk and untimely ap plause, which consisted of stamping, whstling and cat-calls, greatly dis turbed the players and disgusted the audience.
