The committee meets this evening. The local cotton receipts have follen off cousiderably daring the last to days on accountlof the weather. The owners of the Caraleigh cotton mat will put in 5,000 more spindles during the winter or early ucxtspriu. The concert given at Peace institute last evening by the musical faculty was exeelleut in all its features. The rainy weather reduced the attendance The name of the Asheville insurance company the solvency of which is questioned and which was referred to yesterday is the "North Carolina State Fire." The usual daily runaway occurred on North Blount street this morning. Xo damage was done. The country horses have not all become educated to the street cars yet. Special attention is called to Mr. Charles C. McDonald's statement of special features of the Raleigh branch f the Kuoxville building and loan as sociation. The fall term of St. Mary's school begins tomorrow. Rev. Br. Smedes says the outlook is excellent for a large attendance. Several members of the faculty arrived today. The two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs, George Palmer, of Lenoir, Cas well county, was chooked to death a day or two ago by a piece of beef which had been given it. The death of Dr. Pat. Booth, of Ox ford, last week, was due to a spider bite. A girl here who was bitten by a spider a year ago yet has the same ymptoms as those which immediately followed the bite. ' Mayor Badger had two cases to try this morning. Both were drunks. An old offender was fined $5 and costs, while a young man had just started on the "road to destruction" was given 12 hours in the station-house. Belle Boyd lectured at Metropolitan hall last evening. The weather was so bad that the attendance was small. The lecture was well delivered and extremely interesting. It was full of exciting war experiences. A girl here aged about 11 can read priutwhen,blindfolded. She was tested a day ortwo ago and two thicknesses of cotton batting and a triple folded handkerchief were placed over her eyes. Then a book, opened at ran dom, was given her. She read easily until she came to a long word which she could not pronounce but she gave all the letters of this word. DEMOCRATIC CLUBS. Some Notes About their State Convention Tomorrow. The state convention of democratic clubs tomorrow is expected to attract so many people that Metropolitan hall, the academy of music and the superior court room have been secured as places for the speakers. Arrange. ments are also being made to secure the use of the grounds of the Centen nial gradej school as a speaking-place Most of the speakers leave Washing ton tonight and reach here on the "Atlanta special" early tomorrow morning. Some of the speakers will arrive via Greensboro, on the Southern railway's train, a little later. Others will come up from the sooth, among these being governor-elect Oates of Alabama.

Mr. Hector McLean,, of Harnett county, and his twiu brother were here today n a curious mission. They are the oldest twins iu the state and are devoted to each other. Both are gen tlemen of the "old school." Hector today had on a richly embroidered vest which he has had for 42 years. Although the brothers are in good health they naturally think a good leal about death and determined some time ago to be interred in metai caskets. Being economical, they hated to think of squandering money on their burial. A friend of theirs, who has been employed as a copper worker, told them if they would purchase the copper he could have a couple of askets made for them much cheaper than they could be obtained from an undertaker. It was this that brought them here and they purchased the copper today. They expect the cas kets to be ready in a short time. I he Messrs. McLean are well known and respected citizens of Hamlet. Their many friends hope they will have no need for their caskets for many years to come. Progressive Euchre.

One of the novelties of the season is M. B. Leavitt'sspeitacular pantomime, "Spider and Fly," at the accademy of music Friday. AH the costumes were made by a London costumer,and were imported at a cost of thousands of dollars. It is impossible to touch up on the many features of the perfor mance. Suffice it to say that they have been most highly spoken of in other cities, and that the artists have almost without exception scored big hits in the past. All the principals have been stars in other organizations, and the several specialty people are said to be leaders in their lines. The box sheet is at W, H. King & Co's., drug store. ' . Congressional Candidates Fight Yesterday at Lenoir congressman W H. Bower, democratic nominee in the 8th congressional district, and Mr. R. Z, Linney, the republican nominee. had a discussion. A special to the Charlotte Observer says that Mr. Lin ney, nettled by Mr. Bovver quoting his strong language denouncing populists and republicans some years ago, be gan, in his ten minutes' rejoinder, to make a statement which Mr. Bovver said was a lie. Mr. Linney cursed Mr. Bower and the latter made a pass at him but friends grasped him. Mr Bower landed a broken blow on Mr. Linney's cheek which drew a little blood. A serious row was barely avoided.

A DEAD LI-TI ER LAW. Golrtsboro Druggists Stirred by its Eurotci'iiu iit. tiold.-b'iro Las l.ecll M-eing lively times lately. 'J he druggists are mad wilh a prominent doctor there andlhc doctor is mad with the hheriff of Wayne. The latter, in turn, is trying to do LJs duty and keep ou the good side of every one. yuite a mess, ami it was all brought about by the physi cian, who is also a druggist. In lS'.U a law was passed by the leislaluie ti the effect that nobody who was int a registered pharmririst could till pre scriptions unless supervised, aud that no druj;(.;ist roiild leaie his store in charge of any on- except a reuisten-l pharmacist. It also pro-, ides that not e'en a duly registered druggist can either fill or refill a prescription with out the order of a physl iau. Iv.cr since its passage the law has I eeii practically a dead letter and few peo ple knew of its existence, The Golds boro doctor, who is also a druggist, kuew it, however, and lie saw a way to make a I. ig business scoop." As it happened all this geutlemau's clerks were registered pharmacists. He went to the sheriff and demanded that he enforce the law. The sheriff, as the matter had been brought to his at ten tion, was bound to comply. The mat ter was investigated and it was found that every drug store except that of the shrewd doctor had been violating the law. As a conseqiisnce some de serving young uieu were thrown out of employment and two drug stores were compelled to close. Since then things have been waxing hot, the druggists threatening the ofli -ioiis do. tor, and he s.earing ven geance on the sheriff for telling who started the racket. At the last term of court he did ha. e the sheriff in dicted for neglect of duty but he was acquitted. Death of Mr. Jesse Taylor.

Several evenings ago two gentlemen were riding their bicycles on a certain street which . 'was barVi'caded -"on ac count of sickness." As the riders ap proached the barricade the foremost one turned his head to speak to his companion behind. The next instant the rider's chin was caught by a plank and he was swudl' off into the air, while his wheel went gayly on.; Nc damage beyond a few bruises was done, but the gentleman says he hasn't got over his fright yet.
