M. C. A The Program and the Speakers. Last evruiug wan a little cold but in spite of the weather a Ure aiidien.-; assembled In the First Baptist church to attend the celebration of the niuth anniersary of the Yono;; Men's Chris tian Association. It wm an enthusi astic audience, too, for auyone who went abroad la-t evening , must needs have been enthusiastic. The meeting was opened by the reading of the lesson by Dr. J. W. barter after which Rev. Df. Eugene Daniel offered prayer. Then Mr. C. SI. Busbee, president of the associa tion, made a short talk, telling of the founding fifty years ago of the asso ciation, its growth and the good con dition the Raleigh association was in, after pasiug through many hard ships, lie introduced the speaker of the evening, Dr. Thomas Hume, of the university. Dr. Hume then addressed the audience and held their attention for 40 minutes. His talk was. a good effort, replete with philosophical wis dom, and was highly appreciated. He showed the good the Y. M. C. A. had done and was doing and said that the beauty of the association was that it was listiuut and separate from any church, but a place to which a young man night fr.-.-ly i.'o. assured that he would reci i.e a hearty welcome. He wis followed l.y Mr. IVimrose and H. II. Battle, Esq., both of whom made short but excellent talks. A feature of the evening s exercises was the excellent music and choir singing The solo by Mr. Lyman and the trio composed of Messrs. Cooper, Young and Neweomb were especially good. Excusable, Under the Circum stances. Friday evening a Certain gentleman, fearing that the water in the pipes uld freeze, left the water in his bath-room running. He awoke in the night and not hearing the water, in vestigated. lie found the bath tub full and just,ready to overflow, Fran tic, he slipped on a pair of slippers and rushed, dishabille, into the chilly night to cut off the water. Nearly frozen, he was struggling with an ob stinate faucet when his wife, determ ined to empty the water, threw a bowl full on his head. He shrieked out in agony, but she. did not hear j bowl after bowl of water came falling on his shivering body ; finally the bowl slipped from his wife's hands and struck hiin squarely on the back. He had all this time stuck to his postybut this was too much he gave up. But the recording angel considered the circumstances and did not count bis hasty words against him. Public Installation.

Royal Ar canum meets tonight at 730 o'clock, at its new quarters in Odd Fellow's ball, Pullen building. Installation of officers and other business of impor tance. Members are requested to be on hand promptly. This morning in the superior court Jack Wimberly was arraigned for the murder of his daughter, Iana Wim berly. The special venire was drawn and a jury to try him selected. The Christian Advocate in its last issue comes out in reply to the article in the Visitor of the 31st, in which certain geutlemen were quoted as say ing that the Advocate would come out against state aid. The Advocate says that Dr. Kilgo's article could not be dragged in as a paper against "state aid." But the Baptist leaders say that the Advocate dodges the issue. Haw about it? Commissioner John Robinson has received a little from the At lanta Constitution requesting him to be one of the judges in deciding the premiums to be given by the company at the southern states exposition, for the five best crops of cotton, corii, etc, The Constitution will give $500 in premiums. It is a great honor to Mr, Robinson and he, of course, accepted "with pleasure." ' Verily, the Way of the Rafler Is hard. This morning the grand jury brought in presentments against the Raleigh citizens who have been indicted for raffling. The presentments' "enable solicitor Poo to obtain true bills when-' ever he may wish. The cases, however, will not be brought up at this term, he says. Next termr'fnqugh, there will be lots of work for some lawyers. The party, whoever he is, who acted in the capacity of informant against the gen tlemen is being very harshly criticized. He has been a little smart. Raffling may be gambling but eo is progress ive euohre, for that matter. Housekeeper wanted for a small family. Address C. C. box 895. 14 8t MRS- POTTERAND BELLEW. "Charlotte Corday- was Srlen- dldly Presented Those who went to the academy Saturday evening, and there were many of them, went away delighted tbat they had gone, for the manner in whii'b this historic play was presented was highly creditable. Manager Meares iff to be congratulated on hav ing procured such an excellent com pany, and it is to be hoped that the audience that greeted it, a very large one, the weather considered, will en courage him to obtain more good companies. Mrs. Potter as Charlotte Corday was good, and presented that difficult character with consummate grace. At times ber interpretation of the charac ter seemed a trifle strained, but the audience easily forgave her this fot the wholesouled fire and enthusiasm with which she presented her part. She is an exceedingly attractive and graceful woman in appearance and this made ber all the more accept able. Mr. Bellew as Marat could scarcely have been improved upon, 'n fact his work almost overshadowed that of Mrs. Potter. The support throughout was excellent. Raleigh will be glad to welcome this company again. NEARLY FATAL. By Timely Aid Mrs. Lancaster Saves Her Chi d's Life. This morning little Johnnie Lancas ter, the 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Lancaster, passed too near a blazing fire and his clothes ignited. Mrs. Lancaster, hearing the little fel- low's screams, rushed to his rescue. When she reached him the fire had al. most completely inveloped his body. Not a moment, however, did the brave mother hesitate. Snatching up her child, his clothes flamine as they were, she ran with him to a bed aud burying bini i the bod clothes suc c ceeded in smothering the flames. It was at first thought that the child was fatally burned but after a doctor had been summoned it was found that the mother's timely aid had saved the lit- te one's life. The little boy is severely and seri- ously, though not fatally, burned about the bodv and face. He will re- cover but will be scarred for life. The noble mother was also severely burned about the arms and on her hands but she is not seriously injured. It may be months before the little boy re covers. SHOULD BE AIDED. Raleigh Citizens Asked to Save the Fair Grounds. Contrary to general opinion the last state fair fell short of paying expen- ses. The interest on the mortgaged lands is four years in arrears and un less the city or the public comes to the rescue the state fair grounds will be sold under the mortgige this spring The buildings (in that event) will be sold for lumber and the land divided into lots and sold for building lots The race track has been made an excel lent one at great expense and will be a distinct loss. It will be regretted if there is not enough public spirit to raise the small sum necessary to save the grounds for the public. The bond holders are mostly men of small means and are no longer able to carry the burden. South Carolina's Big Hog. 3 r ' - ..1. lu.un as to treasurer apps nog. w e re- gret tbat we cannot at this moment produce it. Treasurer Edds is a man wnose worn in una country is as goou as his bond. He is a reformer in good and regular stand intr who was elected o the treasurer's office without onno- sition. It is something unusual to hear treasurer Epps called on for proof. The Charleston paper is not familiar with the Spartanburg people. If treasurer Epps says the hog weighs 852 pounds, according to the testi mony of a truthful man, that settles it, so far as some 7,000 Democratic voters ot tne 01a iron district are con cerned. But, really, there is no dnnht bont the ni. It is a tremen. . . ... . . aons anair. its tan is neany envel oped in fat and it weighs 852 pounds. ! It la one yeat old. - THE PERRY TRIAL. Xne Argument Commences this Evening. The entire morning was taken up in superior court today in obtaining a jury from the special venire drawn in the Wimberly case, so the Perry case was not called until 3 o'clock, too late for the Visitor to obtain a full report. It is understood that no tes timony of importance was brought out. In fact the report in Saturday's VieiToR told about all that is worth knowing in regard to the case. This afternoon argument will be heard which will be concluded tomorrow morning. A verdict will probably be handed in tomorrow afternoon. The testimony Saturday afternoon was in favor of Perry, a cousin of the murdered man testifying that Bailey had told him that he struck Perry twice before he was cut. Perry went on the stand and said that Bailey set on him with a knife; he knocked up his band and the wound from which liauey died resulted from his own knife. This is hardly probable but nevertheless it is very likely that Perry will escape a death sentence. UNIVERSITY DOTS. Election of Marshals and Ball Managers. The Glee Club to Appear Here.
