OWN ACTS ESTOP HER He Says for Wrongs Existing only in Her Distempered Imagination Mrs. . Pattie D. B. has Relentlessly Pursaed Him. At the April last term of tbcVouft iv will be remembered that Mrs. Pattie D. B. Arriiigton again sprung to the front by instituting suit, through her attor neys Messrs. Dougluss and Simms, against W. 11. Arrington for the sum of $7,830, which she claims is her alimony. She was granted a divorce and $140 an nuully for her alimony by an Illinois court in 1880. This $140 a year she has not received and this she now say amounts to $7,830 with interest. Today W. H. Arlington tiled liis an swer to her complaint and it makes most interesting reading in that it gives the man's side to Mrs. Arlington's af fairs. After stating that he is not suffi ciently informed to answer her state ment regarding the decision of the Illi noise court ho pleads the statute of lim itation and says: 'That, in resjiect of any allowance which the plaintiff might have, legally or morally, ever been entitled to for maintenance of the children, the plain tiff is estopped now b;. her own conduct to -make or maintain any claim. For that after tho plaintiff had ddlcrmincd in her own mind upon the wreck of this defendant's domestic li Co and happiness, she left the defendant's house in July, 1878 taking with her the children who were I hen under years. That for some inonitlis this defendant lived in absolute ignorance of the wherealmuts, condition or residence of the said plaintiff ami his children and endured the agony of fear and Kuspence for them and on I heir ac count.'' lie then states that he acci dentally learned that they were in Illi nois, but had to wait for their volun tary return when lie immediately in stituted proceedings to obtain custody, which he earnestly desired, and the case wns fought through all the courts of the State. The fact that the plaintiff capiases till he has been crippled finan cially, and in his old age, he is not even allowed the peace of lieing left alone." He gives a vivid description of how lie has been "persecuted." Mr. F. S. Spruill, of Louisburg is one of Mr. Arlington's attorneys. ADMIRAL DEWEY ON LIEUT H0BS0N Says Hobson Takes Life to Seriously and is too Bashful (?) HONG KONG, May SO Admiral Dewey seldom discusses iwn of events of the Spanish war, but now nnd then he says things full of pith and poiut. He allowed himself to talk about some of the affairs in the Cuban campaign to a newspaper correspondent today. Speaking of the splendid Merrlmnc af fair, at Santiago, Admiral Dewey said of HoJbson: "I like him; he is brave, and modest. The trouble about Hob son is that he takes life too seriously, he is too bashful." Admiral Dewey has fully recovered, but is still living in retirt-me., on tho ! "l"' ,0 tnr hmu early next week. "LINK UP." Those who inquired for mail at the carriers' window and the general deliv ery of the postoffice today found out the advantage of getting "in line." In every city in the county except Ilaleigh this practice has prevailed. It avoids crowd ing and saves time. The managers of the opera house would do well to en force the same rule. Postmaster Bailey deserves credit for enforcing this regula tion of the Postoffice Department. This being a legal holiday Sunday hours wore observed at the postoffice. STRIKE SETTLED. SAN FKANCISCO, Way 30.-Brig. Gen. Merriani arrived and reports that Gen. Shatter has five hundred troops on the ground at AVardner, Idaho, and is in complete control of the situation.

Tho hands were this morning working on llillsboro street to prevent 'urther damage to tho beautiful elms in front ,f Mr.- James I. Johnson's place. Some of these trees have already been killo-d by the wires. The wires are now being placed so that the branches will not rub against them.

Holleman is a former Ra leigh boy who has met with great suc cess north. He is now located in Bos ton and his business brings Mm large financial results. In a private letter to the Business Manager of The Times Visitor 'Mr. Holleman mentions that ho has recently written inquiring why Mr. Lacy should not be put at the head of tho A. and M. College. Mr. Holleman con tinued: "The people of North Carolina do not realize what a boom its pet col lego would get to put a practical man at its head regardless of classical edu cation. Other States have done it suc cessfully and through his connection with tho Brotherhood of Locomotive En gineers Lacy is today the most widely known man in North Carolina and has more influence with outside people. He ought to be the nest Governor for the trend of Eastern investments is south ward and with Lacy- as Governor tho State would get the lion's share ot cap ital going southward."

GR0TH SERIOUSLY CHECKED Cotton Suffered Especially Young ,1'lants Killed However, Farm Work Progressed Rapidly Grapes a Failure. The wekly crop bulletin for the week ending Monday, May 29, 1899, says: The reports of crop correspondents in dicate that the week ending Mon.lav, May 20, 1890, was very unfavorable fur the growth of erons.

The weather continued un seasonably cold until Sunday (28tln. aid tires were almost a necessity in dwell ing houses. The "cool wave" culmin ated on the 24th and 25th, with daily deficiencies ill mean temperature of near ly 12 degrees; and light frosts wjre gen erally reported on these dates in north ern sections. Tho temperature aver aged about 0 degrees below the norinil for I he week. Siuco last Tuesday very dry weather has prevailed. Drought is beginning to be felt in the west portion of the State, and warm showers .yoiiM be beneficial everywhere. The week ended warmer with abundant sunshine. The low temperature seriously check ed the growth of all vegetation. Much corn, cotton, and tobacco turned ye'low; cotton especially Buffered much injury and many young plants were killed". Some tobacco Which had just been trans planted was also ruined. Gardens and truck crops received u set back. The weather seems to have favored the multiplication of insects, and au un usually large number of correspondents report damage to corn by cut or bud worms, with minor injury to tobacco, potatoes, and truck crops. Tho conditions, however, wen; very favorable for farm work, which was pusued ami is now well up in many comities. Cultivation progressed favor ably, and crops are clean and nice look ing, -with hero and there some excep tions. Planting is practically over; chopping cotton nearly finished, and the second plowing of com lias begun in the south. Digging Irish potatoes has be gun at a few points. Making clover bay was started under favorable eond' Uons, nnd the harvest of wheat and oats will soon be underway, a few fiolds of oats having already been cut. Gar dens and truck crops made very littlo growth this week. Wheat and oats will be short, but of excellent quality of grain according to present indications. Owing to much damage by insects and blight the entire fruit crop, except grapes, appears to be practically a fail ure.

The plaintiff claims that in Xovember, 189t he leased a furnished store 'house near the Falls of Neuse to W. R. Braswell and J. N. Braswell for six months. The plaintiff claims that on tho night of March 28, 1897 between 12 and 3 o'clock the building was destroyed by fire together with cer tain furniture. The plaintiff alleges that W. IS. and J. X. Braswell "were so grossly careless and recklessly negli gent as to amount to wilfulness in the handling of lamps, oils nnd other com bustibles and1 highly lnUamablc and ex plosive substances, and in the control and management and conduct of their business in and about s'oid premises, as that the burning of said buildings and the destruction of the other said proper ty of necessity resulted from their said gross carelessness and reckless negli gence to the great hurt, damage and in- jurv of Ithe piaintttt to wit: m tnc sum of $750." !
