Raleigh Township Now Has 12 Miles of Macadamized Thoroughfares. A correspondent made a trip over several of the ma adamized roads with supervisor McMackin and .an any that no improvement e er made in Raleigh township has been so (.-rent. The value of the good roads may be illus trated by the case of a man . lio dur ing the recent bad weather drought in and delivered to Mr. McMa kin 3,200 pounds of forage, two horses easily pulling the load. The man who made the sale was asked what amount he could have hauled before the roads were built and said not over 1,000 pounds. The same man says that he now gains one load a day in hauling from his farm to the city, and that he gains the weight of three loads. City and country people are alike delighted with the improved roads. The length of road macadamized is almost 12 miles, divided as follows: Rock quarry road seven-eights of a mile; Fayetteville road 2 1-8 miles; in sane asylum road 2 1-8 miles; Louis- burg road two miles; Poole's bridge road 2 1-4 miles; Milburnie road 2 1-8 miles. In addition to this a mile on the Hillsboro road, from St. Mary's to the top of the hill at the fair grounds, has been graveled. Today there are 76 convicts on the roads, last week's term of court hav ing added 32 to the number. The whole force is at work ou the Milbur nie road, on the hill this side of Crab' tree, where half a mile of telford road is being laid. This is of large frag ments of stone, set on edge, the sharp points lowermost, and all crevices chinked with stone. P.. is laid to a depth of a foot, and will be given a top fin ish of finely dressed stone. The next to be worked on is the Hillsboro road. It has been picked up, regraded and rolled to put it in shape for the fair, between the city ana tne lair ground. Just as soon as the fair ends the entire force of convicts will be put at work on it and three mouths will be devoted to its macadainization from the city boundry to the township line, just this side of the Tucker farm. It is now' an extremely bad road be yond the fair grounds for a mile, but Mr. McMackin will change all that Stone for it will be taken from a quarry on Rocky branch, at the edge of tin Junaluska vineyard' and this will be hauled to the Hillsboro road on team way to be built across the farm of the A. & M. college. After this road is completed the con victs will do grading on the rock quarry road between Walnut creek and the Thomasberg vineyard. The hills there are to be cnt down some eight feet and the earth removed will be utilized in making a slope from the creek on that side. A new bridge now spans the creek there and the road this side of it is one of the finest out of the city. It is the most popular with bicyclists for tney can "coast ' all the way down 'the gradual slope from the rock quarry to the creek. While the con victs are doing the grading on this road the crusher, which is operated by the steam road roller, will be ocu pied in preparing stone at the quarry Inquiry was made of Mr. McMackin whether the people in adjoining town ships want macadamized roads and are willing to pay taxes to get them He said the people of St. Mathew' and House's creek townships desired the good roads and are willing to pay for them. In most parts of the coun ty people desire the roads but object to paying for them and want the county to male the out-lay. But the "gospe of good roads" isbeing preached daily and the leaven is spreading. Will Pay a Dividend. The receivers of the defunct bank of New Hanover are to pay a dividend The receiver of the parent bank, at Wilmington, has- collected $164,000, and the receiver of the Wadesboro branch $95,500. The claims found against the Wilmington bank aggre gate $78,5000, and against the Wades boro bank $110,000, and for the two at least $120,000 more will be oollect ed. The receivers say a dividend of 10 per cent, can now $e paid. The executive committee of the state fair will meet in the mayor's office to morrow at 12 o'clock sharp.

The board of aldermen last Friday evening ordered fire escapes to be put u' on the Park hotel. Today work men are engaged in putting up the escapes. Saturday afternoon James Davis, a crazy colored boy, was sent to jail by mayor Badger for vagrancy. He will probably be sent to the coloied insane asylum at Goldsboro. It is said that another sub-tropical storm is on the way. It is to be hop ed it will stay in its proper section of the country. Raleigh wants no more Florida disturbances. The alarm of fire was given for box 321, Saturday evening. Some of the firemen made a mistake and went to box 32. The fire was at the Mills wagon factory. . No damage was done. The deputy revenue collectors, for some 'unknown reason, have almost entirely let up on the illicit distillers There has been only one seizure re ported in over three weeks.

The foot-ball reason in North Caro lina will be opened next ' Friday at Chapel Hill by a gun between the university and the agricultural and mechanical college. The same teams will play there on Saturday. The university eleven is crippled this year by the loss of all eiceptone of the veteran players who brought last year's team up to the high stau dard it attained, and therefore must do some wonderful work to turn out as good a team this Reason. The A. & M. college.ou the other hand, is fortu nate in having nearly all its old play ers at college. They therefore feel confident and express the belief that they will win at least one of the games. The university always turns out a good team, however, and the college boys may be more than satisfied if they are able to s ore. It is learned that the university eleven Iris a number of good games scheduled, some with northern col leges.
