The cotton receipts were quite heavy today. Very few country people came in today to see the cirens. John Dunston, a well known colored carpenter, died last night. Great quantities of leaves are being removed from the capitol square. Today dawned bright and cold, ful filling the weather prophet's predic tions. Is there to be a roller skating rink here this season? is a question many young people are asking. It is alleged that the fusion legisla ture ill mattrially reduce the annual appropriation to the state, guard. Enoch council, No. 5, Royal and Select Masters, will elect officers for the ensuing Masouie year this evening. Regular convocation of Raleigh chapter, No. 10, Royal Ar.-h Masons, in Masonic hall this evening at 8 'clock: Election of officers. The yawning hulk of the old second Presbyteriau church is the dangerous and disgusting eyesore of one of Ral eigh's prettiest streets. At 3:30 this afternoon two drunken abandoned women were pnt in the station house, having been escorted down town by two policemen. The " Eastcr field trials" of bird dogs began at Newton yesterday. Pierre Lorillard, of New York, presi dent of the club, is present. At Asheville yesterday Mr. Charles E. Graham's leg was broken. His horse struck him on the leg with a foot, breaking the bone in two places. "Sanctiflcation" and the market. house two questions of vital interest to Raleigh people. Those who are losing money by the delay prefer the market. There is now a great deal of travel on the different roads. The Florida special, the elegant Southern vestibule that was put on Sunday, is well pat ronized. The reqeption by the young ladies of Christ churchannounced for Wed nesday in consequence of other enter tainments has been postponed until Tuesday of next week. Thestreetcarcompany has a force at work on North Blount street removing the switch there. This is preparatory to the new fifteen minute schedule which went into effect today. Two juvenile football elevens, that of Morsen and Denson's school and the Good Shepherd choir boys, played a game here last Saturday. The school boys won easily by a score of 14 toO. George Hunter, a colored boy from House Creek township, was arrested last night and put in jail for affray As is usual in such cases Hunter was the "under dog" in the fight, the vio' tor making goodhis escape. The A.& M. college football eleven will play the Oak Ridge team at Greens boro on Saturday next. The college bovs will win easily. On Thanks giving day they play the Wilmington eleven at Wilmington. There is absolutely no exctrse for delaying the matter of opening the market. The experts have been cho' sen and made an examination of the floor today. Twenty minutes should have sufficed them in which to eome to aconclusion. "What has turned up, Mr. Wal ters," that gentleman was asked "Nothing except Tom Edwards," said he. That New Light character was here today in full force. He desires it distinctly understood that he is stopping at the Yarboro where his friends may see him. Some days ago Colonel A. Q. Holla day, president of the A. & M. college, visited New York, On his way back he stepped from the train while in motion and fell. He was quite badly hurt, his shoulder blade being broken. The colonel is now at home reouper- tlng nd Is getting on, nisely. FATALLY HURT. William Smith, Colored, Caught In the Machinery and Near ly Killed at the S.A L Shops. This afternoon aboot 3:45 o'clock William Smith, a colored man who hat been employed in. the H. A. L. hops, was seriously and probably fa tally hurt. He had cl imbed a ladder to adjust a belt on piece of machin ery and while doing ao his clothes were caught by the head of a Urge nut that was rapidly revol.ing. The unfortunate nun was rapidly whirled through the air a number of times, his body banging against the brick wall of the building at every resolution. When he drop ped to the floor, af'.er the machinery as stopped, those who picked him op expected to find him dead. Such was not the case, however Physicians were summoned and found that the poor man had received severe internal injuries One of his legs was broken in three plates, an arm was also bro ken and his side was also severely in jured. The doctors declare that is is almost impossible for bun to survive. POLITICAL POINTS. There Will be a Joint Caucus Proposed Changes in County Government. The remarks made by Col. Robert M Douglas in opposition to a joint can vass of the populists and republicans Vnd an echo in some quarters, it is intimated that this question will bear with much weight on the senatorial matter. It U intimated that Jeter C. PritchariJ's friends will hardly favor caucus, as they would prefer a straight republican caucus, hoping to concentrate the extreme element of the party in his favor and against Ewart. It is said further that wes tern members will prefer a caucus of both populists and republicans to se lect senators. With a caucus of that character Marion Butler would be re lieved of the responsibility of express ing a preference as betweeu repub licans. Still further it is said that as no legislation on either the county government or election law questions can be had without a joint caucus, therefore the joint caucus advocates assert that there is no good reason why a joint cauoas should not be held to select senators, and perhaps, as was the case in Georgia recently, the calcus will hear from the senatorial aspirants personally. . It is said that the fusionists in re pealing the county government sys tem intend to let the people elect magistrates and commissioners and school committeemen; that they pro pose to abolish the offices of county superintendents and school boards, and to place upon the chairman of the county commissioners the duties of the school superintendent. Another new feature which is proposed is to have in each county a board of audit and finance (on the Wilmington plan), to be of the opposite political party to the commissioners, no draft on the commissioners to be valid until ap proved by the board of audit and fi nance. The Monday Evening Club- This excellent literary club met last evening at Peace institute. There was a full attendance and great interest was manifested in the subject for the evening, "Jiagar Allan roe. The following members read papers: Mrs. T. H. Briggs, on "Poo's Life;" Miss Florence Slater, on "His True Character;" Mr. Roscoe Nunn, on "The Magazines of His Day;"' Mr. W. A. Montgomery, on "His Placeyin Lit erature." Miss Maud Merrimon de lighted the club with an excellently rendered solo and Miss Grace Bates recitation of the "Mask of the Red Death" showed careful study and great power. The club adjourned at a late hour, well satisfied with the evening's en tertainment. The club is growing in popularity and its meetings never fail to interest. New Advertisements- The Rosenthal Clothing Co. is making a great reduction in the price of clothing. See notice in this issue J. G. Ball & Co. wish to call your attention to their full line of sweet meats for Thanksgiving. It will pay you to call and see them Attention is called to the advertisement of C. A. Sherwood & Co.

The street cars will, under a sched ule which went into effect today, leave the capitol every quarter of an hour. beginning at 7 a. m. and continuing until 9 p. m., and then on a 20 minute schedule until 10:30 p. m. The last car will leave at 10:30 unless there is some special attraction such as theatrical Derformanoes, and in such case will make the last trip after the close of the entertainment. The line officers of the first regiment of the state guard are ordered to meet at Goldsboro December 4, to elect field offioers. who are . to serve fonr years. PERSONAL POINTS. ABOUT PROMINENT NORTH CARO LIN A PEOPLE. Here And Elsewhere State. in the Mrs. Pierre Cox of Tarboro arrived today. Mr. Otho Wilson left this afternoon for Goldsboro. Supt. A. Leazar left for the state farm this morning. Miss Bessie l'urnell returned today from Washington, D. C. Miss Bessie Henderson of Salisbnry is visiting Mrs. Julian Tim' eii ike.

The Penny Post is t'.ie name of a new daily paper, published at Char lotte, the initial number of which ap peared yesterday. Sportsmen report that birds around the city are already beginning to be thinned out. Towards the end of the season they will be very scarce. Today's show is attracting less at tention than any that has ever come here. The parade was witnessed by a mere handful of colored people as sembled at the capitol gate. The reason is evident. The show people didn't advertise. Saturday night at 11 o'clock a gov erning wheel at the electric par power house broke, and the engine "ran away. 1 lungs were quite lively for a time. Work on the engine is in progress, and and a new governing wheel is ordered. J lie crop of acorns this year is one of the smallest on record. The great frost and freeze late in April is said t nave been the cause of the short crop. There are also few hickory nuts, wal nuts or persimmons. Usually there are a great many acorns on the trees in the capitol square. This year there are none. It is also said there will be no acorns in 1895. Quite an interesting case is being argued before the supreme court this week. The commissioners of Forsyth county put upon the tax list property of the United Brethren or Moravians, the property in question being that. from which they derive an income. It is an interesting question and impor tant. Thb church claims that the property is non-taxable. THE WEATHER. The Conditions and the Pore cast. Forecast for North Carolina : Fair, warmer. Local forecast for Raleigh and vicinity: Wednesday, fair, becoming warmer towards evening. Local data for 24 hours ending a. m. today: Maximum temperature 55; minimum temperature 34; rainfall, 0.00. The area of high pressure which was central over Iowa yesterday morning is now central over New York. It is accompanied by fair, cold weather throughout the eastern half of the country. Another storm center appears in the northwest, with lowest barometer at Huron. This is causing some rain and snow in that region. In the southern vicinity of the storm consid erable rise in temperature has oc curred. , With the eastward advance of this area of low barometer during the next 36 hours the wind will become south erly here, with rising temperature. County Commissioners. The board of county commissioners met today and transacted routine busi ness. The board approved the action of the committee that settled with the late treasurer Lougee's heirs. : They fodnd everything connected with the treasurer's office in tip-top shape, as everyone know they would.

El lington, the expert chosen by contract or Hi veiis, begau their examination of the market house floor over which the squabble between the board of alder men and Mr. liivens arose.

Another, a white man 70 years old, gets five years for horse stealing. The other three are sentenced for short terms for pet ty larceticy. He Brought Down the House. Business was improving and the ys were correspondingly jolly. Dr. Birdsoi g, the manager, was relating his great success to them one day and being so well pleased with the story they passed a resolution to deal with him exclusively. Every time he com mented on them after that he told the same old story about the success of the North-Side "drug store, and brought down the house." CLOTHING AND CLOTHING.
