County Of fleers Nominated by Acclamation. Frank Stroiiach, Ksq., chairman of the executive committee of Wake coun ty, called the county convention to order at Metropolitan hall at 12.20 o'clock this afternoon, making a brief speech thanking the democratic party for the honor it had conferred upon him and predicting victory for the party in November. He appointed 1!. II. Battle, Ksq., temporary chairman, aud .Messrs. Reynolds, Cowan aud Turner temporary secretaries. Mr. Battle on taking the chair ad dressed the convention in a talk of ten minutes, saying he thought many of those who had strayed from the democratic fold to that of the popu lists would see the error of their ways and be with their party in November, and if not that enough would desert from the republicans to make victory sure. He declared the convention ready for business. The roll of township, was called and every pre. inct was found to be repre sented. Oil motion of Aruiistead Jones, Esq., the temporary organ ira tion of the convention was made per manent. Mr. Jones introduced the following resolution in regard to pri maries for United States senators and it was adopted: "Resolved, That a primary for U. S. senators be held in the county of I Wake on the ti-st Tuesday in next December and that the registrars and democratic poll-holders at the Novem ber election be the poll-holders at said primary election. That in the event any of said poll-holders sha.l fail to serve at said election their places shall be filled by the democrat ic executive committee of each town ship. That only those persons who vote the democratic ticket at the No vember ele.-tion shall be allowed to vote at the December primaries. That our senator and representatives he and they are hereby instructed to vote for the candidates for United States sent! who receive the majority of votes east at the said December pri maries." The convention went into the nomi nation of county officers and re-nominated by acclamation the following: John W. Thompson, for clerk; M. W. Page, for sheriff; Millard Mial, for register of deeds; Louis 0. Lougee, for treasurer. Dr. Arthur 0. Jones was nominated for coroner and George W. Athinson, of Swift Creek township, for county surveyor. Up to this time the proceedings of the convention had been in the nature of a veritable " love-feast," but when nominations for senator came up three gentlemen, Messrs. K. C. Smith, J. D. Boushall and A. G. Morris, were placed in nomination. Mr. Smith was nomi nated on the first ballot, receiving 84 votes, Morris 40 and Boushall 22. On motion the nomination was made unanimous. For the house the following gentle men were placed in nomination : H. E. Jforris, Alexander Stronach, W. A. Liles, John P. Beck, J. H. Fleming, J. N. Pair, T. A. Whitaker, W. R. Nich ols and W. H. Holland. On the first ballot Mr. Alexander Stronach, of Raleigh, John W. Beck, of New Light, and II. E. Norris, of Apex, were nominated. Mr. H. C. Olive introduced the fol lowing resolution: "Our fellow coun tyman, Capt. Samuel A. Ashe, being a candidate for a seat in the Uni ted States senate, and the democrats of Wake county desiring to express their commendation of him as a dis tinguished democrat and one in all respectsfit for the position to which he aspires, it is therefore: "Resolved that we cordially com me nd him to the democrats of the next gen eral assembly for their votes for the seat in the United States senate made vacant by the death of senator Vance." On motion the resolution was unan imously adopted. The newly nominated candidates were called on and responded in stir rifcer speeches. The convention was largely attended and was a fine look ing body. fine photographs are now made by Moore at about half the former price. A LIVELY SCRAP. Messrs. John Nichols and J. C. L. Harris Come to Blows. 1 he republican convention was held today in the court house. Its purpose was to ratify the nominations mad by the populist cm m y .mention, Mr. J. C. 1,. llairN upi- d lliet-hair. Hon. John Nichols had a -at on the floor just illlder the judge's S. sk. A good deal of ad binoj had ( man ifested and seieial persona' encoun ters had been t hrealeiied just before and diiiiug a speech by Mr. Ivl. Bled soe. Mr. Nichols interrupt.'. I the latter to ask if Mr. Harris had said anything agaiust him. Mr. Rljdsoe said he had made remarks derogatory to Mr. Nit-hols, whereupon the latter arose aud shaking his linger in Mr. Harris' face demanded if he had said any thing of the sort. Mr. Harris said he had, wheieiipoii Mr. Nichols cried out, "You are a -. liar." Mr. Harris, replying, "You are another, d u you," struck Mr. Nichols on the head with his cane. Mr. Nichols drew a pocket knife and climbing on the judge's stand, attempted to cut Mr. Harris, who was still striking him. Delegates then rushed up and parted the lighters. Police officer Beasley arrested both and they were ordered to appear before mayor Badger at 5 o'clock this afternoou on a charge of affray. This fight was a side issue of the convention. There was a passage at arms as a resolution came up pledging support to T. C. Milliken.the republi can nominee for congress. Rev. It? II. W. Leak opposed this and said Milli ken was working for the democratic ticket. D. P. Lane thereupon said (he being a Millikeu man) that if any body said he was working for the democrats he lied. Then Mr. F. M. Sorrell tailed Rev. Leak a liar. The convention disposed of its real business quickly. It ratified all the nominations made by the populist onvention. It voted down the reso lution to support Milliken. DR. FULLER'S FUNERAL Is Attended by all the Physi cians In This City. This morning at Christ church the funeral services of the late Dr. Fran cis r. duller were held, liev. Dr. M.M. Marshall and Rev. Mr. (iilreath offici ating. The remains were escorted to the church from the iusane asylum by the Raleigh academy of medicine. The active pall-bearers were .Messrs. Pucker, Upchurch, C. Bell, Chandler, Abernethy and Kirkland, all atten dauts at the asylum. The honorary pall bearers were the vestry of the church, Messrs. R. H. Lewis, Charles Root, Frank P. Haywood, John Ward, V. K. Turner and John C, Drewry. The 'choir sang "Asleep in Jesus," "Nearer my Bud to Thee," and "Jesus, Lover of my Soul." The re mains were taken to the union depot and left on the noon train for Kit trell. The interment was at the fam ily burial-ground six miles from Kit trell. There were beautiful floral of ferings; a pillow with the words "At Rest," from the academy of medicine, and other flowers from the church ves try, Mr. and Mrs (.'. E. Johnson and Mr. and Mrs. J. I. Johnson. The Charlotte Observer says edito rially: "In the death of Dr. F. T. Fuller, assistant physician at the North Carolina insane asylum, the state has lost a valuable citizen and the insane one of their best friends. Their treatment was the work of his life and he was thoroughly devoted to it and singularly successful in it. Without wife or children, he gave himself up to those whose minds had been darkened, and many a living man and woman owes to him, under Provi dence, the restoration to health of a mind once diseased. He discharged his duty here with intelligent fidelity and to doubt that there will be many stars in his crown would be to doubt the holy religion in which he was an humble believer. Personally Dr. Ful ler was an exceedingly lovable gen tleman and his friends were to be num bered by the number of his acquain tances. It is a source of gladness to be able to believe that it is well with him." Work on the market floor now goes on by night as well as by day, in or der that it may be completed by the end of next week. DOTS AX D DASHES MADE AHOIT TODAY'S IIA1TEN 1NCS. Items Gathered in and Around the City. There was a partial eclipse of the moon last night. Cyrene aud company left this after- llooti fur (ireelisinro. ! The market will be ceiled either j with wood or ate. I, the Visitor is as sured. There are now 42 prisoners in Wake county jail ; more than at any time since it was built.

Jacob Jordan was captured by sher iff Page's deputies and sent to llills boro where he is wanted on an old charge. The faulty or ill-shaped trees in the young grove at Pullen park are being removed. In a few years the grove will be a tine one. Up to last eveniug there had been eighteen conversions at Kpvorth chapel and thirteen accessions to the church. The interest is increasing. Two brothers named Richards were brought here yesterday and placed in jail. They are from New Light town ship and were sent, here for illicit dis tilling. Cyrene's engagement here has been a failure. She is well liked and is a graceful dancer, but her support is very poor indeed. Business has been very .light. Metropolitan hall sadly needs a new curtain and new s enc.ry. Now that the opera chairs are in place it is prop er that the stage should be in keeping with the hall. Last evening while. a young gentle man a young lady we;- riding their bicycles the young lady fell in froLt of an approaching street car. Fortu nately the car was stopped in time to prevent an accident. The populists in Chatham county yesterda" had a very large convention and nominated A. W. Wicker for tin senate (defeating Atwater); Alfred Self and J. E. Bryan for the house: John Dixon for clerk, J.. J. Jenkins for sheriff, J. T. Paschal for register of deeds, L. B. Chapin for coroner, J. W. Strowd for surveyor. As the pastor, Rev. R. H. Whitaker, is still carrying on the revival meet ing at Kpworth, chapel, he will not be able to fill his pulpit at Brooklyn to morrow evening, consequently there will be no services at the latter church, but there will be services at 11 a. m. and 8 p. in. at Epworth chapel.

Asked t.. be Locked Up to Prevent ;i Muiter. Aliiany, N. Y., Sept. U Believing he was becoming insane, and being in his right mind, yet feeling his reason gradually leaving him, is the si range case of James P. Irving, an Albany business man, made declaration that he was sure that he was becoming in sane, and petitioned that lie be exam ined as to his sanity. " It is because I ain afraid that 1 might do harm tn some one that I loe dearly," said living "I feel all the symptoms of insanity coming on me. 1 am in my right mind now. I realize very well that 1 am losing my senses. The thoughts whic h 1 have are dread ful, and often I am tempted to murder my wife and children, and to cut my own throat. It is an awful feeling, and don't think I cau resist it lung. Strange voices I hear, and demons seem to have taken possession of my head. If I am not sent to an asylum I will surely do harm." Irving is a man of powerful physique, six feet high and vervr resue .-t'lble looking. His face bore truces of an guish. Doctors examined the man and de clared him insane. His farewell to his family was touching. Irving's wife and children had been sent for. They came, wondering why they were wanted. Irving had not told them a word of his condition, and the surprise and grief displayed were great. Immediately after his family had left Irving became, a raving maniac. and was violent as he was being taken to the asylum, where he is now. Milton Nobles Monday Evening. Raleigh theatre-goers will have the pleasure Monday evening at the acad emy of music of seeing Milton Nobles in his new play, "For Revenue Only." He has constructed a thoroughly en joyable play abounding in wit, without horse play. This kind of play is fa miliar but it is the very best of its kind. It is more what is said than being done that keeps the audience in a ripple or rivulet of laughter through four acts. It is clean and wholesom The box sheet is at W. II. King & Co's drug store. , Barlow Brothers' minstrels drew a large house last evening at Metropoli tan hall and gave a particularly line performance. The number of ladies in attendance was large. The musical features were admirable, the dancing up to date and the contortion and trapeze work high-class. The company ought to omit a gag or tw,o and the songs about congressman Breckinridge and Cleveland. Rev, D. II. Tuttle, pastor of Central Methodist church, will begin a series of sermons tomorrow evening on the "Second Coining of Christ." This is an, absorbing subject , as its discussion is being more widely dealt with today than at any time in the history of the church. The public is especially in vited to attend these tiermous.
