Raleigh council No. 551 Royal Ar canum meets tonight at 7:30 o'clock. Members are requested to be on hand promptly. Fitzsimraons, the well Greensboro bicyclist, last Friday rode from Wil mington to Wrightsville and return, 16 miles, in 48 minutes. D. T.Johnson sold today the biggest hog ever seen on this market (560 pounds.) It was from the Roukwell stock farm and was sold to Thomas Pence and Thomas Donaldson. The Christmas holidays seem to have no effect on the vigilance of the revenue officers. Nearly every day several moonshining establishments go under. Mayor Badger had three drunks to dispose of this morning. All were let off with twelve hours, 80will get out in time, if they wish, to celebrate gloriously tomorrow. Sheriff Page intends to give his 'boarders" in jail a fine Christmas spread. Many of them will probably fare better than they would had they their liberty. Deputy Moffit reports to collector Simmons the seizure and distruction, at Bray P. O., of a 70-gallon illicit eopper distillery with 1600 gallons of beer. The establishment was owned by Isaac Cabiness. Mr. Decker had quite a serious fall last evening at the corner of Edrnton and Dawson streets, owing to a mis placed bridge.

Saturday night after midnight thieves broke into the pantry of Mr. G. W.

Conduotor Fowler, of the Southern railway, has a good joke on thM normal and industrial school girls. When the conductor left Greensboro the other morning he had on board quite a number of fairN.ii I's, home ward bound for the holidays As the trained neared University station the jocular conductor entered the car in which were the young ladies and said, "young ladies, we are now approach ing University station and there ire probably a good many university stu dents waiting there to take the train; but if you desire I won't let them come in this car. "Don't trouble yourself," chorused the girls and conductor Fow ler left, the car. He peeped back, though, and saw throughout the en tire car a flutter of excitement and preparation. "I'll try to talk to three, at once, myself," he heard one prxtty Miss declare. Finally the porter called the station and the young ladies im mediately looked out the windows, but everyone had oueeyeon the door. The reader is left to imagine their chagrin when the train pulled off having taken on board one small, solitary freshman, with a "take me back to mama" ex pression on his face, who took one affrighted glance at the crowd of merry Normalites and disappeared in the smoker quicker than a scared rabbit take to cover. Beyond His Comprehension. A young man who had been attend ing school in Vance county, being of a pious disposition, felt called to the ministry. When the Sunday, on whit he was to make his maiden sermon, arrived a large congregation assem bled at the little church at to hear him. The preliminaries passed off without a hitch and the young divine arose and took his text, which was, "Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken and the other left." Then, to the amaze ment of his hearers, be commenced a vigorous tirade against the frivolity of women, their senseless "giggling," etc. The mystery was finally cleared up when the young preacher said, "Now, brothers and sisters, those two women had gone so far that they grinned at everything they saw, even at a mill. What they saw to grin at about a mill is beyond my comprehension, but that is what the bible says they did." The young minister had read the word "grinding" in the text, "grinning." The smile that ran around the church at this last declara tion awoke the "leading tenor." A Delightful Entertainment The Epworth league of Edenton street Methodist church will give a delightful Christmas cantata next Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock in Metropolitan hall. The young lady managers have had the assistance of Prof. Bryant iu training the children for the occasion and the public is as sured of a pleasant evening. There will be several vocal solos by some of the test singers in the city. ' The Ral eigh orchestra will also be present and add much to the enjoyment. A rare Christmas tieat is in store for all who attend. Admission, adults 25c, chil dren 15c. The Visitor's Holiday. In accord with a time honored cus tom the Visitor will take holiday to morrow, Wednesday and Thursday. It thanks its friends for their kindly support and wishes them a merry Christmas and a happy new year. It will make its appearance Friday even ing, all the better for a much needed rest.

OBSERVATIONS. The holiday travel on the railways was never larger than it is this season. The glee and banjo club of Wash- ngton and Lee university will give a concert at the academy of music at an early date. Trade was lively today. It was thought by some that it would be quiet after Saturday's big business, but this was a mistake. A Raleigh undertaker has sold 417 coffins this year. Happily, only a small proportion of them were for lo cal use. A number of new buildings are planned for 1895. Raleigh, now grow- ng more rapidly than any place in the state, will ksep right on. More manufactures are needed. At the academy of music Mrs. Jas. Brown Potter and Kyrle Bel lew are booked to appear January 12 in Charlotte Corday," and Robert Downing, January 31. Mansell Robertson, colored, iwas put n jail here yesterday. Mansell broke up a church meeting in Mark's Creek by disorderly conduct and it was for this offense that justice Scarborough sent him down. ANOTHER FINE ROAD. The Hillsboro Road is Now Something Worth Driving . Over. . A year ago and for years, before that time tbeliillsboro road between the fair grounds and Maj. Tucker's farm was a terror; a regular object lesson in bad roads. See that road now. It is being made a fine throughbare by superior McMackin's road force. The grading and macadamization are com pleted from the gate of Mr. William Brown's plaoe to the state experiment farm. The grades are particularly easy and the appearance of the road is very attractive. The road force is coming in this direction and is cut ting down the hill at the fairgrounds. The fair ground authorities ought to arrange to have a good deal of work done at the entrance to the grounds. The people who live on the road are so delighted with the improvements that they are now raising a fund privately with whicVto pay for macadmization as far oat as Mr. Phil. Andrews' farm. Fire at Wrightsville. : The Island Beach hotel, at the Ham mocks, Wrightsville, was burned this morning. It was owned by the Wil mington Seacoast railway company, cost $35,000. and there was $10,500 in surance on it. If you want solid measure oysters at 25 and 85c. a quart go to D.

"The most liberal withdrawal pl.m offered." I would like to ask auy sensible man what the meaning of the "moat liberal itbdraal plan ineaiis" in a Building and Loan Association? Does it not mean the one which PHvs you lack the most money? WJ, listen: I bought some stock several days ago, in one of theie liben1" concerns, on which f68 25 in dues bad been paid. I offered this stuck to sid association for jGOOO j8 2,"i less thau had been paid iu dues. They reched '78 25 for it, indudiuu' admission fees. They refused the offer. Wlj, now suppose these unfortunate fellcs had leen in the Raleigh branch of the Southern what would they liae re ceived? Why, ffit5.2."j, and sis er eeut. interest. "Well, how unu-li did you give for this stock. Mr. M. Di.n aid?" "None of vour business" 'How much did Mr. McDonald pay f,.r this stock?" asked the Secretary. "Well, as this was a business trausn'c- tion between myself and Mr. McDon ald, and as it was my stock, and ai had a perfectly legitimate right to sell I can't see why you should know," was the answer. "After this st'if k had been sold to me, one ff the parties is approached (after the :ock had l evn offered to the Issociati in) with a pi.i. position to buy, Why '? To leave tin- mpression that he had sold something valuable. I knew what 1 a buying. 1 was figuring for McDonald. Weil, I sola this stock, placed it tor the Association, so it will get just as much out of it as if I had not bought it. So the Association is not damaged I found a man who had some and wanted more. He liked it for the pro tection was in it the instance 1 doubt:if this man cm get any insi;r.iU'.e in any other reliable insui.ui e coin. company. Why? Because they will not take hnn. So this was a good chance for him. I sold him the stock for 60.00 cash :?S.25 les than w.-,s paid iu and ! made something on tlje trade. What do you take me for ? 10 you think I buy and sell stock f.,r amusement? If you have any stock and can't get your money out of it, call and I will let you know- if I can't handle it. Now, after placing t his stouk for the Association, which I thought was a favor, the most unkiudest cut of all was for the Secretary to go around to one of the parties and tell hiin that Mr. McDonald has sold vour stock foe $60.00 and made dollars aud cents out o it. The seller was amused. I trnM him what he oTered it to tue for, aijd he had sense enough to know that; 1 bought it to make something ou , of it. I would advise any one who sees any of the Southern siock for sale to bojy it; it is as legitimate as if yciu were to buy stock in the Raleigh Sav ings uanK or Kaleign (. otton Mills. cery ceruncace nas a transter on tlje back. I will not get mad or fret be cause you bought or sold. I will guarantee this, though : Any stock iln the Southern will be cashed by mU when six months old for all that yu ll.v. alA In T til . 1 .1 ....! .y. it r wiii uut ieuu .VOUIa j part of it, but you get every cent ycu nave in it, and if you want to sta -t again you do without one cent of e i. pense. Recolle.t this : After twenf,. four payments have Veen made yd"u get every cent., and ten per cent, in terest additional. Some people who have more cents in their pockets thajn seuse in their ln-ads are comil iinini . of my long advertisements in our citjy papers. I thought I was helulug Ra.i- eigh to support Raleigh papers, but;! im willing to take (it is said a fool advi e is better than none) my ndve cisements nut. so for 1805 1 will n. iiuiici. iiiese cnronic growlers., wit them. The Soutnei ti is able to get a the business it wants without adve Using. I have been endeavoring to educate the Raleigh public as to what they may expect iu the Southern and other Associations, and feel that the money I have spent in advertising bus been well spent in being help and a Baving to them in the future. For 1895 I will expec and intend to se, 1,000 shares, making 2 020 shais which the Raleigh Branch of ll Southern will- have January, 18111, with its 250 members and .200,000 worth of stock. CHAS.
