RALEIGH SHOULD CONTRIB UTE HANDSOMELY. rir. Stevens i Devoting Himself to a iom1 Work. The Raleigh correspondent of the Kichnioud Dispatoh writes: "The Southport Leader has undertaken the task of raising a testimonial for the cruiser Raleigh. This has been Ulked and talked in Raleigh ever since long before the launching of the superb cruiser, aod at one time deBigna for the testimonial were submitted. But it never went any further than this." The Asbeville Citizen, quoting this, says: "The Citizen, months ago, raised a fund for a testimonial for the Ral eigh. The sum was a respectable one, considering aat th givers were not ripectiug to ee the Raleigh come up the French Broad some tine morning, aud the full amouut raised was sent to the city of Kaleigh, which had prom ised to do the haurtsome thiug. But the promise truly "uevt-r went further than this' it was always only aprom m; audso one day we rescued t'ae fund laised here, and it is safe in bank at sheville today. Congresiinin Craw ford asl;ed i.'cre' ary of the navy Her bert what would be the most appro priate gift, and he answered a silver service which would be placed in the officer's mess room. As f ir Raleigh it is not in this contest at all more shame to it, for the cruiser was named after the capital city." Yesleiday's Greensboro Record con tained the following: "Mr. Charles L. Stephens, editor of the Southport Leader, was here today to enlist the interest of our citizens in securing a souvenir -ser.ice to be presented on behalf of the state to the Uni ted States cruiser Raleigh, named in honor of the capital of the state. Mr. Stevens is visiling the various cit ies of the state for the purpose of placing the mat ter in competent uands and has secured at a number of places lady sponsors to take carge of the work and raise subscriptions by giv ing entertainments or otherwise. He was so i'ortuuate as to" secure two of Greensboro's most attractive aud popular young ladies a-i sponsors for this city, these, being Mioses Kath eriue H. Scales and liily Small con tributing to a cause which should ap peal to the patriotic sentiment and state pride of every one." The Raleigh sponsors have thus far received $45, of which $25 comes from Col. Benehan Cameron. They will soon get actively at work. Raleigh must do well in this matter. . ,:. The people of Wilmington will give an entertainment on a grand scale in aid of the fund. They expect to raise $500 at least.

Wi Kitchen, vice president of the Firmers' bank of Roxboro, who instituted proceedings yesterday to have the receivership vacated, appear ed before judge Starbuck late yester day afternoon. l:o srlsy' jndge S ar buck, upon proceedin..; , had appoint ed J. S. Merritt receiver. The argu ment yesterday by .1. C MacRae and Spier Whitaker. Kitchen's counsel, was that the proceeding Monday were lllegil, as the act of 1893 re quires an examination of the bank and thirty days notice to the officers to make good any deficit, then a sec ond examination and if the latter showed a bank's affairs in bad shape a receiver could be appointed. It was contended (hat the proceedings Mon day were premature, were also not an action of a creditor and that there was no notice to the bank. Judge Starbuck decided in favor of Kitohen and said that, though he had issued an order for a reoeiver, the latter was still in olerk Moye's bands. Ife then withdrew the order and thus the bank has its original status. Bonds equal to the amount it owes the state were tendered to canoel the $100,000 debt. STANFORD vs. ELLINGTON THE STATE LIBRARIAN CASE HAS A FURTHER HEARING. Quite a XiiiiiImt of Witness Ex amined and Original Record Shown. In th superior court late yester day afternoon the counsel for state librsrian Ellington stated that under n act ratilUd March 1, 1893. he was elected for two years, and that his election took pU.-e March 15th of that year, yet hi term ended March 1, 1895; that March 13th the legislature rhtcted Stanford, this being thirteen days after Ellington's term began; that. Ellington had been re-elected January 19 b. Stanford's counsel contended :hat the library board hid no power to elect iu January or at any time before March 15th; that El lington's term of office could not be gin un'il the latter date; that be gave bond on March 15, 1893, and that his term was as fully fixed by the date of giving bond as if set by law, and that Governor Carr was present as a wit ness that Elliugtou's boud was dated March 15tn. Ellington's lawyers then made the poiut that taking this view of Stanford's cuuuscl, even if bis terra did not expire until March 15tb yet the legislature had elected Stan ford to the office two days before El lington's term ended and while he had full title, and that this was il legal. This morning the hearing was. re sumed. Mr. Fred. Saunders was pres ent, f rem the office of the secretary of state, with the house and senate jour nals of March 13. Mr. Charles L. Hiuton, executive clerk, waB also present with the bonds given by El lington iu 1893 nd 1895. Mr. John 0. Scirborongb was the first witness, and next Mr. Stanford was put on the stand. He testified that he had twice, namely March 14 or 15, and March 20, demanded the office from Mr. El lington, who refused and referred him to the library board. T. R. Purnell was eiamined as a witness for Stanford. Clerk Satter- field of the house and W. P. Batche lor were witnessss for Ellington. The argument began at 4 o'clock, T. R. Purnell opening for Stanford. The argument was upon questions of law, so the jury was discharged until tomorrow morning, when questions of fact will be argued. There is no contention as to the senate journal of March 13, which shows that 26 senators were present. Attorney Purnell read from the house journal of that day that at the open ing of its session 73 members voted. Tb is was an endeavor to prove that a quorum was present. : He then read further that when the vote was taken for Stanford only 48 votes were cast for him. ' He said be had expected the question would turn on there being no quorum in the house, but insisted that a a majority of a quorum was sufficient for an election. Attorney C. M. Busbee said it was admitted that a majority of a quorum was sufficient if a quorum participa ted. Mr. Busbee followed Mr. Pur nell. . . The case hangs on the ratification of the act giving the legislature power to elect the librarian; whether the bill really passed; whether it passed be fore or after the election of Stanford; and when the date of Ellington's term of office be?an. Street talk is that Ellington has the weight of the case on his side.; Deaths. Mrs. William Carlton, aged 65 years, died suddenly at her residence near Jlorrisville yesterday. Mrs. J. E. Cole, of Raleigh, who was at Durham on a visit to her son-in-law, Mr. Charles Jetton, died yes terday. Sunday she was stricken with paralysis. She was the mother of Mr. Henry P. Cole, of this city.

A lot of prominent Charlotte men yesterday made op a bond for Hol land, the bank thief, six times as large as was required. The Charlotte Observer this morning 11 red a centre shot at these sentimentalists. Here is what It says : "The making of a bond of $91,000 in this city yesterday in the case of an embeziling bank eashier for whom a bond of ouly $15,000 was needed, was a regrtable occurrence. No mat ter how charming bis personal qual ities, it should never for a moment lie lost sight of that this man is a criminal, and deserves the same sym pathy and the same punishment, ex cept in a much larger degree, that is measured out to the poor man who steals a side of meat er the negro who steals a d.miuioa chicken. Men who have boys to raise need to have a care about how they palliate the crime of ex-cashier Holland, while those who have not should still re member that they owe the weight of their influence to the cultivation of a moral tone in society. Charlotte gets a bad advertisement this morning in the statement to the world of the size of this bond, and any other trusted official who has the handling of the money of other people and who may be contemplating the appropriation of a part of it to his own purposes will find great encouragement in this iucident of yesterday in Charlotte." Temperanee and City Politico The pastor of a church here, who is at the head of the temperance move ment, was interviewed today, as to what he would do with 75 votes he controls. He replied that they would probably be cast for Wynne for mayor, though there might be a change in 24 hours. He said a paper had been drawn which set forth that certain things would be done if the temper ance people were allowed to name cer tain officers and if certain regulations of barrooms were made These reg ulations are that the barrooms shall open and dose at the same time as the stores, and shall have no screens or painted windows in front.
