A Vkltiac frimd PnU II Wltk Budiea Book XkeeerJptf v of -r Hew Orin,"' ' . "; "' . r " A very handsome book; entitled "The City of New Orleans, the Book of the Chamber of .Commerce and Industry of Louisiana and Other Public Bodies of the Crescent City," has bees presented to the Library by Mrs. Ed C Bay, who is here on a visit from New Orleans. Tbe book is- filled with beautiful and interesting pictures, s artistically ar ra nged and finished.-. New Orleans has so many unique characteristics -and Is so different from any other city of the United States that an- hour or two may be agreeably spent in looking it over. The architecture at once bespeaks the warm Southern climate. Nearly every house is surrounded by broad doable galleries to catch each . wandering breath of air; as far as possible lawns and gardens are attsohed to tbe resi dences and every device employed to make tbe -long, merry summers cool and enjoyable.- These pictures are in striking contrast to those of Northern cities with their -compact and closely built streets,' where the one idea is to keep oat the cold of the-long winters. The Library returns many thanks to the giver of this handsome book and adds it with pleasure to its list of at tractive books of places and pictures. HOW KB. POirS TASKS. A Better Way to Stave ; off Hard Times IkM By Crying- for Fro Silver. Mr. James Potts, of the Flint Hill neighborhood, says that he will make. on a two-horse farm, 15 bales of cotton weighing 500 pounds each, which at 7 cents per pound will be S525: 500 bushels or corn, wbich at 50 cents per bushel will be 1250. Besides thij he will make plenty or meat, potatoes, oats, wheat, etc. This crop will be made at a cost of only $75, and is certainly good farm log. .This is the best way for farmers to inorease their per capita. Mr. Potts' example is worthy of emulation. The Condition of Cotton. On August 1st the Messrs. Heath.

There were six men on the track Tuesday afternoon, and Reddy was one oi tnem. lie is still stiff and tender the after affects of his collision with the little darkey. Shaw and Frank Jones have given up their desire to become famous by means of racing work.

A telegram received yesterday morn ing by Mr. R. M. Miller, Jr., announced the death of Mrs. Stuart W. Cramer. The sad news fell with crushing sudden ness upon the hearts of her many friends. It had been reported about two weeks ago - that Mrs. Cramer was ill in Tbomasville, at the home of Mr. Cramer's father and mother, bnt tidings a few days since, were received- saying that she was better and in a fair way to recovery, ana tne news or ber death comes, with a cruel, sickening shocks t , - Airs, vrimer was a aaugnter or Mr. and Mrs.. Horace Berry, of .Portland; Maine She was endowed with rare in tellectual and social gifts; had' been carefully educated: tad breathed from childhood, the atmosphere of refinement and culture and possessed many graee- iui, oeauuini ana useiui aecompiuta ments. Her skin as a musician was widely known; her clear, silvery voice. so true and pure and bell -like, will be remembered wane memory lasts. ' With pea and brush she showed artistic talents. Her style of writing was clear, simple, graphic, with humorous touches that were characteristic and delightful. and her pictures were of a high orderof merit, une same angers that used wit n so much skill both pen and brush were equally dert with the needle. In her own home every nook and eoi ner witnessed to her exquisite taste and every part of it to ber well poised judg ment. In all the sweet womanly duties of bouse-keeping, she was adept and skilfuL, In the more sacred offices I mother and wife she fulfilled her mis sion and adorned ber sphere.

Who can associate death with a presence so full of vitality of vivacity and versatility ? in ner own lire she always regarded de parted friends as ever present in spirit as not rar off and as never forgotten. Lei us adopt her ideas, and keep her memory ever fresh in our hearts. Long may her gentle and refining influence oe reit in ner circle, and her sweet self forgetfu loess and helpfulness for others oe a remembered lesson to each one who enjoyed her presence. iroround sympathy is tendered to Mr. Cramer in this speechless sorrow? whose keenness was increased by the fact that be was not present when her pure spirit ieit ner Doay. tie was in .New England on a business trip at the time.

Mr. Waters filled a niche in Charlotte's life which will not easily be suppliedi But Charlotte's loss is Chatanooga's gain.

The purchase of the Norris stock at Raleigh, was one of the biggest hits we ever made. Ral eigh visitors are actually buying these goods from us aod .taking xhem back home. , The low price we place upon goods always attracts attention of tbe passer-by and moves these great stocks at a rapid rate. , ; la addition to the Raleigh stock we bought 1,200 pairs ladies', misses' and ' children's grain and glove grain button and lace - shoes, -all solid and elegant goods, bought at half the cost of mak ing. Right on top of all these good things comes 10,000 worth of men's and boys', coarse boots,- brogans, butr bala and' veal calf shoes with a com plete line ot women's, misses and chil dren's shoes suitable -for .winter wear.
