There will be a very important meet ing of the junior order IT. A. M. this evening at 7 o'clock at the hall in the academy of music.

Cooper, on Halifax street, but they were frightened away by the howling and barking of a dog which was in the store. Mr. Cooper appeared on the scene with his gun and shot at the would-be thief. The latter said to him "You had bettertry it again. The burglar left a chisel and this may form important evidence. The revenue collections in this dis trict for September, which were $75,- 759, no less than $75,318 was on tobac co in all shapes. This shows that re markably little tax was paid on whis key or brandy. The amount of rev enue collections during the first nine months of this year was $28,000 larger than for the same period in 1893. ; The Roanoke river is rising rapidly and if it rises 25 or 30 feet may sweep away 200 acres of corn on the penitentiary farm known as the "Hal ifax" farm. When this corn was plan ted it was. known that it was within the danger line, but the risk was ta ken and thus far it is all right. There are perhaps 1,500 acres of corn on the bottom land. The fodder has palled, bat the corn is not ripe. been President Garfield's youngest son, who graduated from Williams in 1893, is now eoaohing Williams' football I eleven. TO MAKE CAR WHEELS Next Week the New Plant Here Will be at w ork. Yesterday afternoon a reporter was at the new car wheel works of the North Carolina car company, and there met Mr. Robert ti. Tohnie, who is a member of the great linn of Lob- dell Si Co., of Wilmington, Delaware. Mr. Tolmie had just arrived. He said he was greatly pleased ..ith the location of the new works; that their equipment is the linest south of the Potomac; that in a year still further improvements and extensions will be made, and that it is quite possible that another building as large as the present one will l e erected by that time. The plant here contains the best results of theLo! dells' expedience gaiued during 50 years. The standard wheel will be made just the same as at Wilmington, and the enterprise is no experiment. As Mr. Talinie says in his earnest way: "We hope to win wherever we go. We expect to com pete actively for business and to get it from the Potomac to New Orleans, particularly injthe southeastren states We can turn out 40 wheels daily and the plant is so built that it can turn out 100." He said further that by the end of next weeks work will begin, and the first finished wheels will be shown at the State fair. This enter prise here is very important. There are car wheel works in only two states south of this, Georgia and Atlanta. Mr. Tolmie said : "Two ex perts from the Lobdell woVks will be here in a day or two. They will train your local people to d the work. We will employ of home labor from 20 to 40 men. The men wto will be here from Wilmington will be simply in structors." Mr. William J. Aedrewsof this city, son of Col. A. B. Andrews, hold an important position in the works and he explained the process of wheel manufacture. The building is 85 by 160 feet in size and about 30 feet high. At the west end is the cupola furnace in which the iron will be melted. This has a capacity of 125,000 pounds daily. The molten metal passes into lales, and these run along on a trolley so they can be tipped into the peculiar molds which lie on the floor. These are of sand and iron, so made that the iron comes against the iron which runs into the mould and forms the face of the wheel. This contact of cold iron and hot iron produces what is caused a "chill" on the face of the wheel, which makes that part harder. After the wheels have been poured a few minutes they are taken out and put into wheel pits, of which there are are 12, each holding a dozen wheels. A cover is placed over each pit and the wheels slowly cool for three days. Then they are finihhed. The test of the wheels is made by dropping a weight of 140 pounds on each from a height of 12 feet, giving a 1,640 pound blow.' The wheel pat terns are of mahogany. Each wheel will be lettered "Lobdell's Car Wheel, Raleigh, N. C." ; COURSE OFTRUE LOVE Mr. Trolllnger Finds it Exceed ingly Rocky. Some time ago the Visitor reported an accident that occurred to a Mr. Trollinger, of ' Burlington, who was thrown from his buggy near Morris- ville and quite badly hurt. He was on his way to see his sweetheart, Miss Cora Markham, who lives about seven miles from Morrisville. Although badly used tip he continued his jour ney on foot. As predicted, a marriage was soon arranged for and the day set was last Tuesday. Mr. Trollinger accordingly started from Burlington bright and early Monday morning for the home of his prospective father-in-law. Remembering, his mishap near Morrisville.he concluded to go by way of Chapel Hill and everything went well until he came to New Hope creek, The heavy rains had changed this us ually placid stream into a raging river and to cross in his buggy was an im possibility. The thought tht hia sweetheart might think him purposely late ' worried-him so much that he hired a negro to swim the creek and carry news of the accident. Even this, however, did not satisfy the im patient lover, so after putting np his horse Mr, Trollinger put his clothes on a loir and himself entered the water and swam across. A walk of six miles through the mnd brought him a very wet lover to his destina tion. The delayed marriage took place Wednesday. Mr. Trollinger has certainly proved the ardor of his love and the happy ctiple will probably "life happily ever after." THE STATE FAIR. THE WORK OF AKKANCINi; 1DR EXllllilTS FAIRLY HECI N. Many Horses on the Grounds Preparing For the Races. A Visitor reporter visited the fair grounds this morning and looked the ground over thoroughly. From the earnest manner in which work has )e- gun in preparing for exhibits it can safely be promised that thisyear's fair will b the best in many years. A large force of workmen was this morning busily engaged in the east wing, putting up booths, etc. Anion,' the firms that are having exhibit spaces fitted up are W. II. & 11. S, Tucker, who have a pretty pavilion and a large booth already erected; Julius Lewis & Co., II. F. Smith and J. S. Carr. Col. Carr's exhibit will be one of the largest and most attra tive in the east wing. 'lhe central portion of the building will be devoted for the most part to vegetable products and is being tast ily decorated with evergreens. The western wing will be devoted te man ufacturing exhibts and to poultry. The poultry exhibit willle the largest in several years. It will all be under cover; 54 coops will contain it. The races this year will be excep tional fine. There will be trotting races for 3 year olds, 3 minute class, 2;40 class, 2:35 class, 2:30 class, 2.2") class and a big free-for-all trot. There will also be half mile running heats for North Carolina 2-year-olds, 'half mile heats for 2-year-olds, open, and a one mile dash. Several horse own ers already have horses on the grounds, exercising them on the track daily. The horses now on the grounds and their owners are as follows: Arctus, Jr., thoroughbred, by Arctus, age 7 years; owned by J. A. Kelly, Hen derson; Happy C, by Argyle out of John Happy mare, age 2 years; owned by major Tucker's estafe; Morton W breeding unknown, aged 2 years; owned by Will Black; Robert Bur dette, by C, T.'Clay, 2:18; out of Pansy by Pancoast, 2:21.

A JEAL0US -HUSBAND Attacks Jim McNeil, Colored, at Fayetteville. The colored people of Fayetteville are much excited over a scandal. James McNeil and Tom Smith are two highly respected colored men of that place. McNeil is the town underta ker. Last Wednesday night Smith was out late and entered his house cautiously. He had for some been sus picious that McNeil was visiting his home too intimately. He found his wife and McNeil in the house and in a fit of : rage jumped on McNeil and gave him numerous blows on the head with an axe handle, McNeil's skul' is said to 'have been cracked and he may not recover. McNeil says there was nothing improper iu his relations with Smith's wife. "Weekly Cotton Report. The receipts for the season to date are 7,336 bales, against 6,080 bales at this time last season. The receipts for the week are 1,318 bales, against 2,121 last season. Number of bales on the platform, 570. Shipments for the week were 1,545. Price of strict middling 5 1-2 cents.' Had Thirteen Railroad Passes. Burlington, 11., October 11. John Slaughter, colored, on being soarclud for concealed weapons, was found to possess thirteen annual passes, on 'thirteen different railroads, in the name of C. M. Putnam, president of the Texas, Louisiana and Eastern rail way, lie was held without bail. - FEMALE FOOTRALLISTS. They are Meeting the Men In a New Field of Effort. Formany years football has been most popular at the arg northern universities and, in fact, at almost every male college and preparatory school throughout the country, but it is only recently that it has crept into the female seminaries. Su. h. however, is the case, Vassar and the Harvard annex both have line teams and will struggle for supremacy on thauksgi , iug day. A very select young laities school near lialtiuioie has this year a well ti.iiued team, and lias cleaned up everything in or near Baltimore and it is rumored that the university will give up its time-hoi;- ored thanksgiv ing contest with the university of Virginia to play the ath letic young ladies. Other things be ing equal, betting would be in favor of the university, but the g-illantry of the tar heel boys is proverbial and their trieiuls l-ar that quality may cause them to " throw up" the game to the fair b.ill-tossers. It may be of local interest to note that one of llalei'li's fairest young ladies, is seeking intel lectual and perhaps, physical culture at this institution. "A Night at the Circus." "A Night at the Circus" this sea son is said to surpass an other tarce comedies m novelty, l i isKness and fun; and in reality it is the Bar- iiiiui of all farce comedies. Many al terations have been made in its busi ness and text and an almost entirely new cast of comediaussiimers, dancers and pretty girls have been secured by jolly Nellie McHenry for i!s interprc tation. It will be seen at the of music Monday evening. academy The h'nest attraction 1 f the season is jolly Nellie McHenry Monday evening at the academy uf music.
