A white woman, drunk and disor derly, was arrested yesterday after noon on Fayetteville street, sue i-ame up before mayor Badger for trial this morning and was fined five dollars and costs. A fine portrait wf the late Dr. Thom as F. Wood was today placed in the state library. It is the gift of the state medical society, by whose order it was painted. The S. A. L. train, due at 11:85, came in on time to the minute today and several intending travelers, re lying on a continuance of the usual delay, were woefully left. Many prominent republicans and populists are here, holding a confer ence, among them being Messrs. H. G. Ewart, J. 0. Pritchard, H. L. Grant, J. Mott, Marion Butler, W. H. Worth and W. F. Stroud. A Raleigh man, who has just re turned from Charlotte, says that the elegant streets and roads there gave him a bad attack of that "tired feel ing, naieigu is away Denina in tnis particular and should wake up. The recent rains have converted the streets into a veritable sea of mud. The city has a complete road-making outfit but it seems that nothing is to be done in the way of street improve ment. The Southern railway will sell ex cursion tiokets during the holidays at greatly reduced prices, f 1'he tickets will be sold from December 22 to Jan uary 1st, omitting December 20, 27, 28 and will be good until January 3rd. The board of directors of the state normal and industrial school at Greensboro met here today, Mr John C. Scarborough presiding. Dr. C. D. Mclver is attending the meeting. There are now 391 students at the school. Manufacturers of commercial fertili zers are rapidly registring their brands at the agricultural department, the new year having begun December 1 The number of brands registered last year was 475. Labor commissioner Lacy says his annual report, now in press, will con tain about 250 pages, that the increase in the number of answers to questions is 100 per cent., and that the report will be quite satisfactory. A cocking main, in whichjsome $600 was involved, besides many bets, was fought near Gqldsboro day before yes terday and was attended by many sports. It was between Alamance and Wayne birds, of the Holt and Dortch strains. , The annual report of the state guard will show a reduction of some thing like 150 in the force, this de crease bing ' due to the disband ment of two companies of infantry and the consolidation of the : two divisions of the naval reserves. - Two more renters of the market stalls moved out today. One has been in the market 14 and the other. 12 years. They say they simply can't afford to pay rent. Are the rents not rather high? Mr. Clarence T. Boykin, one of the reporters on the Richmond Dispatoh, eloped with Miss Sallie Epps and they were married at Weldon yesterday Mr.'Boykin is a brother of Col. H. M. Boykin, the Richmond agent of the Seaboard Air-Line. ) Deputy sheriff Walters left for Smitbfield this afternoon carrying with him John Ryals, who keeps a sa loon on Wilmington street. Ryals was arrested on a warrant from a Smithfield justice of the peace on a charge for false pretense in the pur chase of a mule. The Raleigh mi nistrels, a new ama t.ftnr organization, have been re hearsing frequently for the past week and say tnat tney nave reacnea a ae area of perfection in . the "blacked art" that will open the eyes of the first Kaleigh audienoe before wmon they appear. It is whispered that ''Tobe" Marshall will be prevailed upon to officiate u "end man," FEMALE UNIVERSITY. Eev. O. L Strlngfleld Chats About Raleigh's New Edu cational Institution. Rev. O. L. Stringfield, the financial secretary of the new Baptist woman's university to be opened here next fall, was seen today and had some interesting things to say about the university, the endowment, which he li raising, aud Baptist educational in stitutions. When the Baptist convention met at Elizabeth City last year the unfortu nate arrangements of the programme placed him at an unfortunate hour to address the convention, and thisyear, at Charlotte, after he had obtained an espe. ial hour for his address, sudden enthusiasm sprang up for Wake Forest and Mr. Stringfield was com pelled to take up a collection immedi ately after the convention bad given f 5.000 to the endowment fund of that institution, having only one bour in which to do so and make his address. On arcount of a special order several gentlemen, who had intended speaking in the interest of the association, were unable to do so. Notwithstand ing this 2,600 was quickly raised for the university's endowment. Rev. Stringfield says that this, the collec tion being taken at the time it was, equalled a collection of f 8,000 taken at a more favorable time. The convention passed special reso lutions endorsing Mr. Stringfield and the university unanimously elected him financial secretary for the ensuing year. So determined is ne to raise tne amount necessary for the university to be opened, $39,000, by next fall that he has decided to give up his other work and devote all his energies to the work of raising an endowment fund. At the convention a resolution was offered and adopted appointing a com mittee to bring the different Baptist educational institutions throughout the state into close sympathy with each other. While this may seem to some to point to co-education, Mr. Stringfield says such is not the caso. The Baptist female university will certainly open next fall. It will be a great thing for Raleigh and will strengthen Raleigh's proud claim of being the greatest educational centre in the state. In Mr. Stringfield the Baptists have a strong, conscientious and able man, one who has the good of the institution deeply at heart. Nothing awaits him but success. Death of Mr. James F. West. Last evening Mr. James F. West, who for many months had been dan gerously ill, died at the home of his brother, Mr. Nick W. West, on Hills boro street. Mr. West was greatly esteemed in this city, where he had passed his entire life. He was for years a valued engineer on the Ral eigh & Gaston railway and was for some years engineer at the insane asylum. He was always the quiet, modest gentleman and faithful friend. His funeral was held this afternoon from the Presbyterian church. Rev. Dr. Eugene Daniel officiating. Mr. West leaves a wife and three chil dren. The Independent Band Reorgan ized. ,-.';s The Raleigh cornet band has met and reorganized. Mr, George . Mc Cullers was elected musical instruc tor and leader, Mr. J. B. Turner, as sistant musical instructor and Mr. J. W. Cooper secretary and treasurer. The band was organized, as Mr. Cooper says, for the "mutual benefit" of its members (financial) and of the citizens of Raleigh. The mem bers of the band are as follows: J. W. Cheek, James Shepherd, Thomas Lumsden, C. B. Hart, Henry Deboy, James JKehoe, Charles Bullock, Frank Wilson, Lonnie Crawford, J. N. Eger ton, Alex.Viola and John Thomas. :- Died. This morning Mrs. Frank Hunley died at the Rex hospitaT, where she had been confined with lung trouble for several weeks. She was the wife of Mr. Frank Hun ley, of Royster Park & Co. Mrs. Hunley was a lovable woman and very popular with all who knew her. She leaves, besides her sorrowing husband, several small children. The Visitor, with a host of friends, sym pathizes deeply with the bereaved husband and motherless children. A Heroic Remedy. Justice Roberts, in the sheriff's office, was today complaining of a lack of flesh and a superabundance of "angles." A rustic sitting near, who weighed somewhere in the neighbor hood of 200 pounds, remarked that what gave him his flesh was a steady use of kerosene oil, taken internally three times a day. From the look of disgust on the 'squire's face it could plainly be seen that he did not con aider a want of corpulency worth such heroic treatment. I.O.O.P.

Let our Supreme Court he heard from favorably and 1 wiJl show you what the Southern will d) fo- her Raleigh mem bers.
