An Invitation to all Ex-Confederates
to be Present
Here In What Raleigh Needs.
Weeks ago the stone for curbing
lower Fayetteville street was delivered,
hut nothing was ever done. The street
ommissioner says as soon as the
father permits he will lay the curb
ng. There is no prospect of any per.
uanent street improvement unless the
:iew administration revolutionizes mat
ers, for there is no stone crusher, no
itone ready, and it appears there is
10 money on hand. It is said that
he stone from the city quarry ia not
lit for top dressing. May be the new ad
ministration will take hold vigorously
f two much-needed improvements
better streets and sidewalks. If it
does 15,000 people will say "well
done." Stick a pin here. Most of the
Raleigh streets and sidewalks are In
18th century style, and this is the
19th century.
Raleigh's New Bookstore

attend the unveiling of the monument
to the confederate dead May 20h in the

"This solemn occasion will perhaps
be the last opportunity that many
comrades will enjoy of meeting
friends endeared by the recollections
of the past, and by honoring the noble
men who have shed eternal lustre up
on the name and fame of North Caro
lina.
If practicable, come in organiza
tions from regiments or companies, or
from counties; but if not convenient
to join the same, eome as individuals,
nd msriater on arrival at the office
of the bureau of information on Fay
etteville street.
'All bodies of veterans are request
ed to notify George Allen, secretary
nf Mi nnmmittee on arrangements, of
their intention, stating probable
nnmhtr and time of arrival, and send
forward said notice as early as pos
sible."
Rt.fta. Holt was invited by M rs.
Armlstead Jones, the president of the
UilUa' monumental association, to be
one of the gentlemen who will make
short speeohes May 20. He replies as
follows :
"After thanking you and the la
dies of your committer for the high
compliment paid me. 1 have to say
that it always affords me great
pleasure to do anything in my power
for my native statu, and especially for
the cause under consideration. 1 his
monument should have been erected
many years ago, as none deserve mon
uments erected to their memory more
than the noble, brave, patriotio North
Carolina confederates who sacrificed
their lives for what they thought to
be right. I will, therefore; cheerful
ly comply with your request, and de
liver a short address on the occasion
of the unveiling, May 80. It was my
purpose, as I believe It Is the duty' of
every North Carolinian, who, can, to
be present, as a mark of respect for
those who showed to the world that no
truer or braver soldiers aver went into
battle than oar North Carolina troops.
My only regret la that I fiel I am not
equal to the oecaalon." i .

THE DOOMED MAN.
THE PHYSICIANS WHO EX
AMINED MILLS SAID HE
WAS SANE.
So He Will be Hanged Tomorrow
What lie Said Today.
The Victor yesterday published
the fact that Gov. Carr at 0 o'clock
had acted on the reports made by the
three physicians, Drs. Kirby, Hlnes
and Carr, as to the sanity of George
Mills, and deolined to commote the
death sentence. Mills will be private
ly hanged In the jail yard tomorrow
on the same gallows on which Orange
Page was executed last August. Great
efforts were made to save Mills' life,
the claim being that he was feeble
minded. The physicians, one of them
superintendent of the insane asylum
here, Bay Mills understands the enor
mity of bis crime, and talks about It
and other subjects calmly. 'His ap
pearance indicates a much lower or
der of intelligence than ia really the
case. He Is neither insane nor imbecile
but is legally and morally responsible
for the crime of murderiag his neice.
His moral sense is not blunted and he
Is entirely competent to distinguish
right from wrong.
Last evening deputy sheriff Brooks
went to the jail and told Mills that
the governor had not seen fit to do
anything for him. Mills drew a long
reath and said, "Well." Then, In a
lower tone, he said, "The Lord's will
be done." He spoke about himself
and asked if his execution was to be
public or private. He said he wished
it to be private, and seemed to be re
lieved when deputy Brooks, who has
always been very kind to Mills, as-
ared him the execution would be pri
vate. Some time ago deputies Wal
ters snd Brooks promised Mills they
would see that his body jwaa properly
buried and not turned over to a hos
pital or medical school for disseotion
Undertaker John Brown will take
hargejof the body, on the part of the
family, and will convey it to Apex for
burial.
This morning Rev. D. H. Tuttle,
Rev. A. D. Hunter and Mr. John T.
Pullen went to see Mills. They found
his brother, John Mills, with him, and
the condemned man was sending
message to his mother. He told his
brother John to tell his mother that
he had told the truth; that he be
lieved the Lord had forgiven him for
the great wrong he had done; that he
knew it was wrong.
Rev. Mr. Hunter said just after he
came out of jail that he had signed
the petition for commutation simply
because he thought Jack Wimberly
eaually as guilty. He renewed his
belief as to that fact.
Sheriff Page will be the executioner,
and the execution will take plaoa be
tween the hours of 10 a. m. and S p
m.. in the enclosure in rear of the
jail. This is a shed of pine planks
with no chinks or openings through
which persons on the outside can see,
There will be about thirty spectators
inside the shed. The latter has
roof.
Rev. Dr. Branson visited George
Mills today.
DeDuty sheriff Brooks spent some
time this afternoon oiling the gallows,
also In putting soapstone on the rope
The latter is the one used lu Hanging
