Items Gathered In and Around the City. The lo.al cotton receipts today wsra quite heavy. Particular attention is called to C. A. Sherwood & Co'. advertisement. It is said that roller 'skating will again l-e popular the coming winter. This year the convicts in the penl tiary have made over 1,500.000 brick. Nash square was today sown in clo ver. Next year it will be an attractive place. v The trees are rapidly changing color and day l y day the woods be come more beautiful. The sidewalk is being put down in front of the Pulleu building. Vitri fied brick are used. Tli" county convict force is now at work grading and macadamizing New born avenue near the soldiers' home. Secretary Ayer says the number of entries at the state fir is very large and that the big building will be tilled. A large number of wagons have been built iu the shops at the peniten tiary and sent to the state farms on the Roanoke. There are now more da)' scholars at St. Mary's school thau at any pre vious time. The school buildings have been refurnished throughout. The Ralph Fisher concert at Metro politan hall last evening, though heard by a small audience, was the most de lightful affair in that line this season. This year there will be a new feature at the fair grounds. This is Womb well's circus and meagirie, which is well known for the number and varie ty of its animals. The chorus of pupils of the public schools today practiced singing the state song, "The Old Xorth'State," and will sing it "Educational day" at the state fair. Next Wednesday the western North North Carolina Baptist convention meets at Clyde. Rev. J. L. White, formerly pastor of the First Baptist church here, preaches the annual ser mon. Many show people who will have their tents on the "Midway" at the fair grounds arrived today, from the Richmond exposition and other places. Two sperial carloads of their baggage arrived. The physicians agree in saying that there has been more malarial fever all over the state thau they ever saw. In this section, as elsewhere, chills and fevers have been widely prevalent. Sharp frosts are needed to stop these. As yet the frosts are too slight to ef fect an improvement. . Some queer melons wore brought here today vby Mr. Jones who lives near Apex. There were SO of the melons. Two of them weighed 60 pounds each, and the average weight is 40 pounds. He offered the lot, which filled a wagon, for $15. They will be on exhibition at the fair. They grew on one vine, which sprang up in Mr. Jones' corn field. : Married at Richmond. The Richmond Dispatch of yester day published an account of the mar riage there of Mr. Joseph Sidney Lan caster, a prominent young business man of Louisburg, ' N. C, and Miss Mamie A. Morriss, daughter of Mr. John T. Morriss, of Raleigh.' The ceremony was performed at the resi dence of Mr. John S. Morriss, brother of the bride, by Rev. Dr. George H. Ray. Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster have gone on an extended southern tour, after which they will return to Louis burg, their future home. Mr. Wil liam E. Uzxell, of Mapleyille, N. C, w as the best man. Among those pres ent were Mr. John T. Morriss and Mrs. G..W. Morriss, of Raleigh. . Beat a Woman. Alex Terrell, colored, attempted to do the Corbett slugging act in east Raleigh this morning and thinking a woman would be an easy victim pro ceeded to pound Francis Hinton, also colored, and beat her very badly. A policeman was sent for, but Terrell bad made his escape. It is also said he" out the woman with a - knife, bat the wound was a very small one. i THE FIRST WHEELS Were U&de at tbe CarWkeel Works this Afternoon. ' Just after! o'clock this afteraeei the casting of ear wheels at the Lob dell plant here began. A new enterprise was inaugurated under most aaspi cious eireumstances. Much iaterest was shown in the beginning of the work. Mrs. W. B. Ashley, wife ef the superintendent, started the Irst Are. Thegreat ladle, holding 6500 lbs. was filled with molten iron, and from this smaller ladlea were " filled. With these the moulds were filled. There were not a failure in the whole pre cess. Amoug the interested specta tors were Uen. Hoke and Messrs. Julius Lewis, Charles K. Johnson, A. A. Thompson, W. J. Hieks, N. W. West, J. 8. Wynne and J. J. Thomas. Gen. Hoke said to a Tisitob re porter thatlhehad never seen aay nsw enterprise start off better. He added that there was no earwheel aomptny able to do sueh perfect work tits whioh has not twire the amount of capitalization. The works here are a success from the start. Mr. Robert G. Tolmie, assisted Vy throe expert workmen from WWmlag tou, Delaware, supervised the work. THE WEATHER. The Conditions and tb Fore cast. Forecast for North Carolina: Hun day fair. Local forecast for Raleigh and vicinity : Sunday fair. t Local data for 24 hours ending 8 a. m. today: Maximum temperature 73; minimum temperature 50; rainfall 0.00. The distribution of pressure remains nearly the Bame as yesterday. The barometer is high over the middle At lantic states. The storm in the north west seems to be increasing somewhat in intensity, and is now central over South Dakota. Very little rain has fallen anywhere. Fog is reported from New York, Philadelphia, Chi cago and Mobile. The temperature has risen slightly at all but a few sta tions. It is probably colder in the ex treme northwest, from which section reports are missing. James Young as Richelieu. The highest point that can be reached on the mimic stage is when the artist loses his own identity and leeomes merged in that of the char acter he portrays. The majority of great actors masquerade as the charactqr dressed, it is true, in the costume of Hamlet, Richard III, or Richelieu, but still the individual with his own personal characteristics and eccentricities.- Few have ever reached the pinnacle of art; that is absolutely sinking oneself and absorbing the character portrayed. It may be said that only by the experience of years can one hope to reach the summit of the true artist's aspiration; net to say fame; fame is a popular fallacy at times. And yet the inherent genius is oftimes manifested in the youthful histrion. And if there be a natural re serve force, and the limit of the pres ent is 'not merely the natural advan tages of youth, the theatre-loving public-may hope to see a loving suc cessor to the great American asters in Mr. James Young, who appears at the academy of music next Monday as Richelieu. Fair Week at Metropolitan Hall. Next week Fred Marsh's company, supporting Fred and Madeline Glea son, plays at Metropolitan hall, open ing Monday evening in "Passion's Slave." The Springfield, Ohio, Time says: "The company is a very strong one, each member an artist in his ewa peculiar line and Mr. Gleason an actor of rare merit and ability, as is also the charming young aetrest Madeline Gleason. The repertoire Is entirely new and those attending will be freed from the annoyance of so called chestnuts. The specialties in troduced are refined and catchy. This attraction is unquestionably the best that has appeared here this season." The company will appear at Metro politan hall one week, giving change of play each evening. Popular prlees, 95, 50 and 75 cents. Seats are on sale at Mediae's drug store. University Wins. In the game of foot-ball this after noon the A. & M. college was defeated by the University by a scone of 16 toO. The attendance was small. The play ing of the University team was a de cided disappointment." The best work was done by Stephens, Denson and Gnion for the University and Whita- ker for the A. & 'M. college. Two twenty minute halves were played. Delorable Condition or Li's Wardrobe. Li Hung Chang's present wearing apparel consists of a drooping mus tache and a look of disgust.- Wash ington Post.
