ARRIXUTOX. She Gives her Legislative Commit, tee a Raking. Editor Visitor : Many have been to me After seeing aa nicl Id anoth er pper, to' know if the legislative committee was waiting for me, a was Mated. I ought tu hive been oi pria d, to sea ttie statement, after l bad suited patiently from the day the legislature adjourned How any emu luillreinan could have made such a mateuient 1 cannot see fur 1 Lata vritten several letter insisting that the committee return to Raleigh aud goto work. My paper have been ready, waiting, aud I bare tried to say noth ing in the way of complaint, think ing the committee would come back and do the work thatic was appointed to do, and which it promised to do impartially. After wailing, as I think Tery patiently, for this length of time and it being only two weeks before the close of the supreme conrt for thin term, I cannot think it oat of place to make a public statement. I ask what is the caueeuf the lengthy delay. I am getting quite old and blind but be lieve 1 uau see as deep iu a millstone as any one. I am one not to be sur prised at anything ; no, evi-n if the old gentlemen from down below were to come and demand possession I rath think I would be inquisitive enough to bk why he had not b-en up before us I had been disij-p-'iiited iu his de lay and his waste of lone. For lay life 1 cannot sen the. great dillerence in dealing with deiuus an 1 hue been obliged to do t Army-four years 1 hope now to begin this long dreaded work. I now muke a demand aud say if those committ'Uivu iutend doiug their work they must begin aud no longer delay. There is no excuse, They have employed tbrir lawyer and the work must he doue.

CHARLOTTE NOW HAS A t)E CIDED SENSATION. Cashier Hollund Has Appropriated 850,000 of a Itank'a Fund Satnrday night J. R. Holland, cash ier of the; Merchants' and Farmers' ational bank of Charlotte, assigned, lie was one of the leading men of te city. The fact thai be was a defaulter was brought out by bank examiner John M. Miller, who was making an examination and who discovered that Mr. Holland bad been overdrawing his account for perhaps over ten years, making false entries to keep from be ing detected in bis appropriation of the bank's money. When the bank examiner came and he was rqnired to show so mnch cash on baud, he would borrow the amount, put it in the bank until the ex aminer had finished, and then return it to the parties from whom borrowed. C. N. G. Butt, teller, says he always took Holland's statement and tignreB without questioning him or examining the cash. Up to last night Holland's shortage had reached $50,000. His salary as cashier was $2 200. Besides' his indebtedness to the bauk Holland owes Mr. George E.Wilson, the hank's attorney, J9 500, and Mrs. Amanda l'ritchard, his sister-in-law, $1,000. His assets are valued at from 25,000 to $30,000. Dr. McAden is president of the bank. United States distru-t attorney Glenn arrived at Charlotte yesterday and was iu consultation all day with the officers of the bank and bank exain iuer Miller. Holland's bond in aguar tee company, and is for $30,000. Whether or not the company will prosecute him is not yet known. It is a bad affair, and Charlotte de plores it. Nothing that has ever happened in that city has caused more general expression of sorrow and regret. The Observer says that at the earnest solicitation and repeated re quests of the bank officials district at torney Glenn swore out no warrant for Holland yesterday. It is under stood that Holland will waive exami nation when proceedings are com menced. Holland yesterday tendered his resignation as cashier, and C. N. d. Butt is acting temporarily in that capacity. The Oldest N. C. Town. While Maj. and Mrs. S. F. Telfair were in the eastern part of the state they visited the old town of Bath, in f'eaufort county, sixteen miles from Washington. The Episcopal church, built about 1712, and to which Queen Anne gave a bell, is yet 8and iug. The bell became cracked and the thoughtless people sent it away to be recast. The church is built of bricks brought from England. In it is a pew in which wsonce used by the governors of North Carolina. It this pew was a big chair. This has dis appeared. The church had a fine and costly communion service, the gift of king George the First, btjt this too is gone, no one knows where. Bath was fonnded in 1706, and was then' called "Bath Town."

Dughi's excellent ice cream is al ways popular in Raleigh and wherever else people eat it. Now the Raleigh people and the general public will have a better opportunity than ever to enjoy Dughi's delicious ices, for to day he made arrangeim-nts with all the druggists in the city to keep his ice cream on sale at the- soda foun tains. This will make a, big hit no doubt. : Dughi is up to date, as this enterprising scheme clearly shows, and so are the druggists. THK SlTKKIOli corn r. Shafl er Suit The W eather For Tomorrow.

AND DASHES. WEATHER AND CROPS. The. Third Weekly' Weather Crop P.ulletiii. The bulletin for the week ending yesterday says the weather conditions were unfavorable. The temperature was below normal until the 20.h, only the last three days, Saturday, Sunday and yesterday" being warm, bright "ays. Tuesday aud Wednesday cold northeast winds and rain prevailed over nearly the eutire slate, rainfall wai very heavy,and resulted in fur ther delay in farm work. In the east ern district frosts tvo mornings last week did no damage worth mentioning. Very little progress can be reported. Little cotton has been planted. Less guano- is being bought than u;jual. Tobacco plants are generally reported as looking well, but at some places seeds failed to come up and plants are scarce One station reports dam age by cutworms. SKveet potatoes are being bedded. Freshets on the Cape Fear river have prevented rice farmers frum plowing and planting, and that, crop is bac kward. Cold weather has retarded the growth of truck without otherwise doing any damage.

Last night while traveling on a train near Polktoo, sheriff Wall, of Anson, was hit on the head by a Btone thrown through a window and was paiu fully hurt. Cap'. C. B. Denson has obtained from the widow of Gen. W. H. C. tVbiting, of Wilmington, and from Col. Lamb, of Norfolk, a mass of valuable material for his memorial address here May 10, on Gen. Whiting. As yet the attorneys in the peniten tiary dispute have not agreed as to whether the case shall be heard at this term of superior court or shall take the regular course. If the latter is done it will be six months before the matter comes up. Mr, and Mrs. Aldrich, who last win tor -arae here from Flint, Mich., and who have made many warm friends during their residence in Raleigh, will next week go to Detroit, which will be their home. The change is by reason of Mr. Aldrioh's business arrangements. The township school committee says it is not responsible for the broken down fences at the Centennial school, but the respohsibility is on the school committee of the board of aldermen, and that the attention of the latter committee has been called to the mat' ter. but that nothing s done.
