This morning the mayor's court was in a state of subdued excitement ; a prisoner was arraigned for a particu larly serious offense ; Mayor Badger had on his most serious frown and was putting the prisoner through a Goff like cross-examination; Chief Heartt, the police force and the spectators kept breathless silence and listened feverishly to every word that fell from the faltering lips of the prisoner. It was an exciting moment. Just as the crisis in the testimony was reached the door of the mayor's office opened and shut with a slam; a Hood of whistled melody pervaded the room, and the next moment in bounced an irrepressible newspaper "local," a tune on his lips, cigar in mouth and his hat on his head. All business stopped; it was as if cold water had been thrown on the mayor; "What's the news, sang ont the newspaper man. Just then he saw the glare in the mayor's eye and made a break for the door. Policeman Beasley was took quick for him, though, and caught him on the steps. He was brought cringing be fore the mayor. "Contempt of court," said that dignitary, "$7.25 or 30 days."

This evening the Raleigh druggists' association will celebrate tbe second anniversary of the association by a banquet at the YarU.ro. The hour is 9 o'clock and proprietors and clerks will all celebrate. Therefore the va rious stores will be closed this evening. The Raleigh druggists' association was organized two years ago and is one of the few associations of the kind in the state. Mr. John Y. MacRae is president and will, ex officio, be toast master this evening. The dining room of the Yarboro has been nicely prepared for the occasion and the handsomely gotten up mens cards show that the druggists will have plenty whereof to "eat drink and be merry." There will be speeches too and they do say that the prescription rooms of several well-known drag stores have been ringing with a deal of preparatory eleqnence lately. First of the speakers will be jovial, large framed J. Hal Bobbitt, who will "talk shop" in general but take as the subject of his oration, "The North Carolina Pharmaceutical Association." Then will follow the usually sedate Mr. A. Bradley, clerk in J. Y. Mac- Rae's. He will speak on a wide topic and one which should give rise to much eloquent enthusiasm, "The City of Raleigh." Mr. J. I. Johnson will speak of the "Raleigh association' and John Y. MacRae will talk about "Drug Clerks," which subject, unfor tunately, will give him no chance to display his powers of minstrelsy. The speech making will come to an end with a technical talk by studious H. T. Hicks on "the Silent Partner" (the liver). Caught at Their Still. Deputy collector Foard today re ported to collector Simmons the seiz ure and destruction of a 125-gallon illicit copper distillery and outfit.
