REV. DRTUTTLE
Preached His Farew 11 Sermon
Last Evening.
Rev. D. H. Tutt'e preached a re
markable sermon last evening to a
large audience on the subject of the
holiness movement in connection with
the second coming of Christ and His
personal reign on earth. The bold
ness, together with the teal and abil
ity with which ha handled these great
subjects, wss very commendable.
The substance of bis remarks was to
prove that the churches had lost their
moorings in sectarianism, creeds, dis
tinctive doctrines, &c, and instead of
being one, as Christ prayed the lather
they should be, they were all apart
on non-essentials.
His tribute to the independent class
of evangelists and.holiness preachers
was grand. He stated that all the
great successful evangelists of today
were belie ers and preachers of these
two great, powerful doctrines of the
word of God. He said the churches
that had not been aided by this power.
the increase in membership did not
exceed the death rate. He showed
that God had raised up a class of holy
men today, with the Bible en theii
tongue's end, that were confounding
the wise of the world.
As this was the last appearance of
Dr. Tuttle before his congregation
during this conference year he read
his report of bis year's labors. The
amount, contributed by his congrega
tion was over $3,000, an average of
$10 60 per member: number of addi
tions dining tbe year, 88, making
332 nieinl'ers in all He stated he had
piea li.-d 130 serin. ins, held 60 prayer
iiie.-nnns. sold 583 Bibles and distrib
uted 3462 tracts.
Mr. Tuttle's work in Raleigh has
been very successful and he has not
only endeared himself to his congre
gation bat the community in general.
It is the generally expressed hope that
he may be returned to this charge,
which he has served so faithfully.

THE COMMISSIONERS
Met Today. County Officers
Elected and Work Com
menced on the Sheriff's
Bond.
The board of county commissioners
met today in the court house. A
great deal of interest was manifested
in the meeting on account of the spec
ulation as to whether the incoming
county officers would be able to give
their bonds required by law.
lbe first business of tne board was
the formal "swearing in" of the new
board. The next business was the
election of officers, a chairman, sup
erintendent of county home, county
attorney, janitor of the court house
and a court crier. Messrs. W. C.
Stronach, Allen, Arinistead Jones,
Booker and Jones were reelected.
After some routine work, the board
took a recess and shortly after 2
o'clock began the task of examining
the bonds of the county officers-elect.
The bond of Mr. J. P. II. Adams,
sheriff-elect, was first called for. Mr.
Adams had his bond ready but there
were several hitches. One was that
he had neglected to have his bonds
men get out a schedule of their prop
erty; another that Mr. Knight, treas
urer-elect, was on tbe bond. . If Mr,
Knight qualifies as treasurer, which
is probable, his name can not be con
sidered, county attorney Arinistead
Jones says.
The whole afternoon was taken up
with an examination of the securities
of Mr. Adam's bond. Up to 4 o'clock
nothing- definite could be found out
concerning their value ns such. Mr.
Adams will be allowed to obtain a
schedule of the property of his bonds
men.
Mr. Knight's securities will be ex
amined tomorrow.
The board will hardly finish exam
ining the bonds until Wednesday
There is much speculation as to wheth
er the elected officers can make their
bonds. All have bondsmen for the
amounts required but the question of
speculation is whether or not the
board will accept them.
A Hint to Ealelgh.
The Southport Leader says: "The
U. S. cruiser Montgomery, which will
be remembered with pleasure by the
naval reserves of this state, was pre
sented last week with ceremonies be
coming occasion with a handsome sil
ver service by the ladies silver service
accoiation of Montgomery, Ala., the
city in whose honor the cruiser was
named. The place of this celebration
was Mobile harbor, the chief coast
harbor of Alabama. What have the
good people of tbe city of Raleigh
done for the splendid U. S. vessel
named in honor of the city, and where
will they celebrate the occasion? The
place for Raleigh day would be in
Southport where oapital city people
could greet tne inffn-or-war named in
their honor and suitably celebrate the
occasion.
Miss Badham's Return.
Miss Carrie Badham has returned
from abroad. She has rented a flat in
New York, and will hare her musio
pupils some to her, as do the other
leading teachers of : the city. Miss
Badham's success has. been phenonv
enal. After taking a trip abroad, she
finds herself possessed of several
thousand dollars which she has in a
New York bank. Miss Badham is well
known here and is a relative of Mr. C
D. Heartt and sister of Mrs. G. F. Ba
on, of Charlotte.

The barometer is high nearly every

It is moderately cold in the west,
The temperature is apparently about

Changes at the Union Depot,
Saturday there were two changes in
the force at the union depot. Mr.
'Bob" Murphy, who held the gate for
passengers was removed and Mr. Will
Shaw, who has been in charge of the
lower gate, took his place. Mr. Alonzo
Pool takes the position made vacant
by Mr. Shaw's removal. The man
who has been in charge of the union
news company's stand, Mr. Morgan,
was also removed. His successor is
Mr. Wright, of Atlanta. Both remov
als were made on account of com
plaints as to the conduct of the offi
cials.
Babies in Jail.
Candis Page and Annie Lewis, both
colored were put in jail recently on ca
pias for defamation of . character
They were bound over to court for the
September term but both were unable
to put in an appearance. Each has
little baby about six months old and
they sit in the outside corridor of the
jail by the stove and rock and croone
to their offspring continually. A
strange sound to be heard in such sur

LADIES, GET A CLOAK !
If you wait until nearly Christmas

keeps up his assortment of Cloaks until

there is no sale for them; but right now
our stock of Coafs and Capes is in
good condition and you can get suited
