Raleigh July 22. -There was a seveie
loetl storm last night, the rainfsu being
2.72 inches. The heaviest fall was be
tween 7.14 and 7.55 p. m., amounting
to 2 inches, the wind being 30 miles an
hour in the southwest. Had the rain
kept up that rate for an hour it would
have been a record breaker, and would
have been S inches. Th 3 heavi at fall
recorded in an hour is 2.28 inches,
which fell in 47 minutes in lt94. On
the night of May 15, 1898 an inch fell
in ten minutes which ' holds the re

be enlarged.
The lightning last night struck a
number of trees and one or two build
ings in this vicinity but did no damage.
One of the operatives at the Caroleigh
Cotton mills was quite severely sh eked
but was all right today.
There is some comment on the fact
that so little money has been raised for
the tt itue of Sir Walter Raleigh which
it is proposed to be put in Nash Square
which is the attractive park in front of
the Union passenger station. Now
fiat all the arrangements are com
pleted for the statue of Egn

R ileigh statue matter could be taken
up and quickly pressed to conclu

As Raymond Bynum was being taken
to the penitentiary from the Raleigh
jail he spoke to one of the deputy
sheriffs and said that his high temper
got him into trouble. He is given
re uiar work at the prison. Most of
the convicts who are able-bodied are
employed in the Hrick yards. The total
number including those in the hospital
does not reach 100.
Only one death has resulted from the
hot weather here, and work of every
kind has gone along, though the tem

The saloon men are very quiet about
their work in endeavoring to secure an

statement being that it is all in charge
of a liveryman, who ie referred to as

and vastly improved circumstances.
While the offices have not heretofore
been as convenient as it was desired it
has remained until this time to affect a
change.
Without increasing the area of the

and other appurtenances for the con
venience" of the employes. The light in
the building has been increased by the
substituting of twd large plate glass
windows for the imperfect source of
light that they had before. Over the
windows are smaller windows so ar
ranged as to allow of ventilation.
The lobby is large and more conven
tnt for the use of patrons, and this is
i very appreciatiable feature. The
width is about eight feet and it ex
tends to the cashier s office, and is
about thirty feet in depth. The floor
is laid with lard wood blocks which im
provesvthe appearance and resists the
wear better than any flooring material.
The walls will be covered with a-new
material known as fabricona which re
sembles burlap. It is better for the
health than paper and presents a bet
ter appearance than hard finish. ,It
will be supplied with the color and cor
respond furniture Golden brown.
The exterior of the building has been
restuccoed and repainted and the buil
ding -made. to present a greatly im
proved appearance.

i GEMS FROM COMIC OPERAS.
: York Slate eUnsgtf And Pro
. ducsd Hers.
An amusement enterprise will be
shown on the stage" of the New Masonic
opera house next Wednesday evening
which will be essentially new and Uni
que to the citizens of New Bern. Mr.
J. S. Atkinson a well known stage man
ager of New York has .been in the city
during the past -week and has trained s
chorus of 150 voices in the best cho
ruses of the leading comic operas ol
the New York stage and the entertain
ment next Wednesday night will be the
product of his labors.
The singers are all New Bern peopk
and are men, women and children.
They have within the short space al
loted them learned their songs and also
learned the pretty rythmical dance
that accompany most of the songs.
There are sixteen solo parts which will
be taken by the leading singers of the
city and pretty march movements in
troduced in the scenes. The whole will
be a most enlivening and enjoyable fes
tival. Many of. the songs are the popu
lar opera airs which have engaged oui
admiration.
The operas represented will be "A
Chinese Honeymoon," "The Runaways'
The Girl From Kays" "The Sultan oi
Sulu" and others of the leading comi
ooeras that have held continuously foi
many months large and jelighted au
diences in the large cities. The open
will last two hours, and will contaii
four scenes each scene a plot within it
self. Mrs. J. E. Benton and Miss Nin:
Basnlght will be accompanists.
The scenery will be the same as th
corresponding scenes in the origin;,
operas. They have been arranged o:
purpose for Mr, Atkinson in his wor
and get off the chorus is to the ver;
best advantage. The costumes ar
beautiful and will be supplied by Mr
Atkinson and they are identical wit;
those used in the operas from which th
sketches are taken. "
This will be a rare musical treat fo
the people of New Bern who likebrigtr
snappy, catchy music; pretty marcht
sr.d drills and Dngnt dialogues. Mr
Atkinson has had over twelve years e
perience in this work and has had greai
success. He requires nut uttie time to
train hft choruses and has never failec
to produce a pleasing and wholly suc
cessful show.
The proceeds will be for the benefit
of St. Johns Lodge A. F. & A. M.
