Last evening in the Mayor's office the democratic executive committee met to discus the coming city eUe tiou and to talk over the question as to how the nominees of that party for city officers are to be selected. All and any good democrat were ad mitted to the meeting and allowed to state and discuss their views. Chair man of the executive eommlttee L. S. BUison presided. There were, of the committee and outsiders abodt twenty live democratie workers present. Several plans for the nomination of city officers were proposed and dis cussed at some length. One of these was to have a primary democratic election, with one box, which was to be kept open fifteen h-urs, to receive the votes and that the candidates h iv ing a plurality to be declared the nominees, ihis plan was greatly favored hy some present but it was linally decided, by a vote of 8 to 7, to hold ward tueetiugs and to afterward imve a nominating convention. The delegates tu the convention are to b ' itistrue -J to vote on the first ballot in accordance with the votes cast for can didates, this gitiug each and every oae representation. The object i. n urged against this plan was that ' people, would not attend the vard i meetings The meeting was not a decisive one, its action being merely a "recom meudation" to the executive com tuittee, which is soon to meet. The committee will dou; tless arrange mat t rs as the meeting "recommended." The gentlemen present were repre sentative business men, and men in whose hands the chances of the demo cratic party will suffer no set-back. An amusing incident, was the fact no gentleman present, which the ex ception of Messrs. Frank Stronach and J. C. Birdsong, conld be induced to say that he was not a candidate for some office. : lei Royster's Brittle Always the same, Always the best, Always fresh, 20 cents per pound.

Meeting of the Arriugton Commit tee Last Evening. The Arrington committee met iu chief justice Campbell's room in the Park hotel last eveniug. Clerk Hanser didn't turn up, so C. Tom Bailey act ed in that capacity. Chief justice Campbell, who had probably taken offense, if such a thing is' possible, at the motion of Phillips at the after noon session to make Bryan chairman, asked that justice to the chair. Hd and Phillips both agreed on this so Mr. Bryan is now chief justice. Several sets of resolutions were adopted, the first being: Resolved 1st, That this committee reqaire of Mrs. Arrington to put her complaint in writing duly verified on oath, wherein she shall state what Bhe wants investigated, the names of the persons against whom she makes charge, and the charges themselves specifically stated,, and that she sub mit this writing so verified to the act ing chairman, and it is so ordered by the committee. On motion of Phillips, it was resol ved that the contract signed by A. A. Campbell, as chairman, 'employing Alex Stronach, Esq., as advisory coun cil, and W. C Clifton as marshall, and Mr. Cowand as assistant clerk, is invalid. Resolved 3rd, That all witnesses in attendance npon the committee are hereby discharged, subject to the call of acting chairman. Resolved 4th, That this committee do now adjourn subject to the call of the 'said acting chairman and one other member. A FIGHT. .0 STOXE I XTl'KXED. I Vc W&rr2.i?t Everv Ore Wc Sell. No Damage Done, Though Mr. Dockery Had "Mood in His Eye. Last evening Mr. A. V. Dockery, of this city and a gentleman from Wil mington became involved in a heated discussion that finally led to blows. The fight waged hot and furious and Mr. Dockery drew a pistol. He did no shooting but wielded the weapon as a olnb, striking the Wilmington man a heavy blow on the head with the bat. Bystanders parted the fighters and quiet reigned again in the hotel. Neither gentleman was ' injured, although each was braised. The fight was caused by Mr Dockery calling the Wilmington man a liar. On to Southern Pines. - The Seaboard Air Line company will ran a special train, leaving the Union depot at 8:30 o'clock Sunday morningj'to enable persons whoso wish to attend the dedication services in the Catholic church at Southern Pines. The train will return in the evening. Fan forth round-trip, 1 At 4 oYloi'k yesterday afternoon the delate, to the V. M. C. A. state coovrutiou had arrived. They came in all day yesterday on every train and a fiuer looking, more vigorous body of representative young men it would be impoKsible to find in any state in the I lion. At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the convention was called to order by state secretary Coulter, and Rev. J. W. W. Lee, of Greensboro, offered prayer. W. J. Ramsey, of Trinity College, led the song service and Mrs. W. II. Dodd presided st the oran. The address of W. T. Spaugh, of Win ston, was postponed. Rrv. K. W. Oakes. of Faieon; con ducted a Bible reading on "prepara tion for service." The first important meeting of the convention was held at 8:30 o'clock last evening in the Baptist church. The meeting was opened by a song service, after which Rev. Tuttle deliv ered an address of welcome to the del egates. He said that hospitality was a divine edict, but that it was always a pieasureible and profitable task. He warmly extended to the visiting dele gates the hospitality of Raleigh and the Raleigh association. Secretary Coulter introduced 6. G. Stephens, of the State University, to respond to the address of welcome, Mr. Stephens said "business men have laid aside their affairs, college men laid as'de their books to come to this convention and weexpe. t to enjoy the occasion doubly on account of the warm Christian welcome you have given ub. We will carry away the most pleasant recollections of the good and hospitable people of the city of Raleigh." Rev. Dr. Pritchard was then intro duced. Dr. Pritchard: "For thirteen years I occupied the pulpit of this church; the most hu cessfui ministry of my life. But I am still young. My wife says my beard is white and my hair is black, because I use my jaws more than ray head. We talk about the Christian relig ion as if it wera preparation for eternity. I belief it is to live by. If I can live right, then eternity may take care of itself. I believe we should do all the good we can and go through the world with a joyous smile upon faces. "Whenever I get so old that I don't admire a good bird dog, a fine horse or a pretty woman, 1 want to die." Mr. Coulter then introduced Prof. .V. W. Smith. LL D., who he said, had been intimately connected with the Y. M. C. A. work in his state, and was now the president of four colleges-: Dr. Smith said Virginia and North Carolina have been linked together in all their history; and that bond was welued'by the war. "I followed the same standard your soldiers follow ed," he said, 'for four long years. 1 have stood side by side with Hoke's Brigade on many a hard fought field. And I learned to love them there." He made an especial appeal to col lege men, saying they were the picked men who had the privilege of stand ing in the front of the fight. The speaker closed bis address with a stirring appeal for a higher man hood, and for the 1. M. C. A. as one of the agencies for the uplifting of mankind. Dr. Smith s address was one of the most elegant and forcible addresses of the kind ever heard here. Dr. Pritchard. on behalf of the young men, thanked Dr. Smith for the su perb address to which they had listened. Secretary Coulter announced as the committee on nominations, Prof Hard ing, of Daxidson college; T. S. Sprinkle, J. T. Pullen, J. W. Calder, Farlowe, of Uuilford college; and C. P. Wharton.

A. delegates, is noted Mr. H. P. Anderson, of Richmond, secre tary of tle Iuternational Y. M. C. A. The witnesses, who were summoned here by the Arrington judiciary, are a disgusted lot. They have lost three day's here, have received no pay, and have had absolutely nothing to testify to. The big shaft of the confederate monument is beiug laboriously drawn up the street towards the monument by means of pulleys. It will reach its destination this afternoon, proba bly, and be put in place tomorrow. The mayor's court this morning, filled as it was to overflowing with a varied crowd, composed of people of all ages, sex and colors, crowded to gether in a steaming, curious mass, reminded one of criminal court on the day of a rnui Jer trial.

Deputy collector Troy has another "moonshine' tale to tell. He writes of the capture of a queer distillery It was made of planks, 30 by 34 inches long. The box thus made was 3 feet deep. The bottom of the still was made of sheet iron and the cap, worm, &c, were all home-made. There was a real little strike here yesterday. About a dozen linemen employed by the Raleigh Electric com pany struck for higher wages and .-taid off two hours. They went back to work, having got what they struck for. Q. D. Boushall, who it is alleged instigated the strike, was discharged by manager Keeler. Mr. W. J. Max, superintendent of Middletown, If: Y.
