R. will use ventilated cars, constructed for the purpose. The 'entertainment at the Theatre to night will be well worth the money. Procure tickets early. Popular prices. "Date a bad man to fool wid," said Moses Bryan shaking his head, as Mr. Bob. Peebleswas presenting very forci bly to the jury the case against C. E. Palmer, ' The meetings at the M. E. Church continue. The sermons by Rev. Mr. Crawford are very interesting and are making a deep impreesion on the con gregations.. 4 Come in to court! as you are recon ciled to do this day," said the court crier yesterday when calling out a de faulting defendant "or you will be f he Wilmington Slar of yesterday gives afl account of the death of James A. Lassiter, which occurred on Sunday morning from an overdose of laudanum. He was said to be from La Orange. O. Marks is out with a new advertise ment. He watches the markets with a hawk's eye and buys largely of special ties.' Read his new "adv," it is well worth the time to those who want goods. The contest among the Republicans in the fourth and fifth wards in this city for councilmen is said to indicate the relative strength of the Hahn and Stimson factions. If this is true, the result showed that the Stimson faction is waxing and the Hahn faction waning. Leg Amputated. Mr. W. D. Brown, of Fort Barnwell, Craven county, has been a cripple for several years in his right leg. Monday he came to the city with a determina tion to have it taken off, and yesterday evening Drs. C. & F, Duffy performed the operation, taking it off below the knee. He is getting along well. Death, of Two Valuable Dogs. On Monday night Messrs. Win. and Warren Ellis lost a valuable dog each from poisoning. Some strichnine had been placed for 6ats that had been play ing sad havoc with a bunch of young chickens on an adjoining lot and the dogs "gained access to it and the result was death to the dogs. One was a pointer the other a setter and both were highly ' prized by their owners. Accident to the Elm City. The steamer Elm City left her wharf at 10 o'clock on Monday night for Nor folk with a full cargo of lumber, cotton, truck, etc.," and when near Broad creek light house her shaft broke and she was ' compelled to anchor." ; The Shenandoah OB her inward trip was signaled and she drew up and took aboard the mate of - the Elm City and three passengers and - brought them to the city. The mate se cured the steam tor Stain and went down for the Elm City. ,. The -passengers, ' or one .;, of them, - .came to . the Jocnirlt .office and 'filed . bill of i com plaints against the two lines for making him pay two dollars to get back to the citv. When informed that it was be yond our power to remedy such difflcul ties further than to publish them as news, he departed, ssying that he would eive it to 'em when he got to Norfolk. .-'Vi-J.'. - - V " n.aeona for n.t PwblUlilnr. - We have a communication from the Superintendent of public instructions of Lenoir county fh which he takes excep. tionsto an item sent by our Kinston corresDondont. claiming that the item was a hit at him instead of the colpred teacher it was aimed at. We do not ' publish the communication because we are satisfied the Superintendent has not seen the item referred to but has been misinformed. In proof of this we quote from his letter. After relating the cir cumstances of our itemizer meeting-a teacher on the streets of Kinston and proceeded toexemine him (which state ment we believe is also incorrect) he Hys that the itemizer exclaimed: "How ds such teachers pft cerlificatceV" New if the Itemizer had asked such a ques tion, the Superintendent would have justly felt aggrieved. But instead of asking this he merely said, "Why grant certificates to such ignorant persons?" This was a remark prompted by the cir cumstances connected with it, and one to which it appears to us the Superin tendent could give a very satisfactory answer. We are certain that the Superintend ent of Lenoir county, and we know him personally and well, will thank us for not publishing his communication when he learns, as we already know, that our itemizer would not do him or any other man an injustice. The District Court. The U. S. district court for the East ern district of North Carolina, convened yesterday morning, Judge Seymour presiding. District Attorney F. II. Busbee, As sistant Attorney R. B. Peebles, Mar shal V. V. Richardson, Deputy Marshal S. R. Street, Clerk R. B. Lehman, and assistant R. B. Blackledge, and Capt. Wagoner, the officer of the grand jury, make, up a corps of officers as efficient, polite and attentive to duty as can be found in any court. The following grand jurors were sworn:- Thos. S. Howard, foreman, E. M. Jar- man, J. C. Eatman, A. R. Dennison, F. Q. Simmons. W. F. Kornegay, Wm. Arthur, E. B. Hackburn, Anthony Davis, sr., Juo. Rollen, E. P. Loftin, Archibald Cox. Edward Bull, D. M. Stanton, Dempsey Wood, J.Q. Bagwell, Simon B. Taylor and John Berry. His Honor's charge was short and (o the point. The morning session was taken up in making up and charging the grand jury and calling over the docket. At the evening session the case of U. S. vs. C. E. Palmer for embezzlement was taken up. Green & Stevenson ap peared for the defendant; Messrs. Busbee and Peebles for the government. The jury took the case about 6 o'clock and before they could agree one of them, Mr. Dowdy of Pamlico, was taken seriously sick and a mistrial was made. Court took a recess until 10 o'clock this morning. The Theatre Last Night. Mrs. Ida Serven was greeted with a large and appreciative ence last night. She sustained the fine reputation that preceeded her and gave an excellent entertainment. Tonight there will be a change of program and everybody should go. Pergonal. Col. B. S. Pardee arrived on the Shen andoah yesterday morning. He has made an extended trip South since in New Berne last, and promises us an in terview on matters of importance to the South and this section in particular. , Mr. H. Engelberger and wife, who have been stopping at the Central Hotel for a few days left for Beaufort, their future home, on Monday night. Mrs. Engelberger is a sister of our townsman, S. F. Teiser. Capt. S. H. Gray left yesterday morn ing for Providence, R. I. Messrs. John Tull and Demsey Wood, of Lenoir county, who are attending the U. S. Court as jurors called to see us yesterday. There are several gentle men from Lenoir and other counties adjoining attending this court whom we would be pleased to see at any time. Come in, gentlemen, and tell us the crop prospects. : . Messrs. B. F. Mayhew, of Bayboro, and C. R. Thomas, jr., of Beaufort, are attending court. Mr. Lockwood, of the N. Y. Daily Graphic, arrived on the Slienandoah yesterday morning and left in the eve ning for Washington, N. C. Seymour Hancock left on the Shenan doah yesterday' evening for Highland Falls,' where he is to attend a prepara tory school to entering West Point. He has received the appointment for WeBt Point, and we hope he will reflect honor on his native town in that position. Mr. Samuel Co .va'rd arrived yesterday morning from jnohoik on ine oncnan doah, accompanied by his bride.. - The A. Si N. C. Railroad. : The following , from the Goldsboro Messenger shows that there are some people in this section who don't think they are being "willfully deceived and for a purpose'.' by the President of the A. & N. C.' R. Wtr better' all wait until the President and officers submit their reports to the stockholders meeting and then we will have facts and statistics to be governed by in whatever, comment we see fit to make: '; ' Tbe change of gauge on. the Atlantic & N. C. Railroad was completed on ThnrsrUv last, and the eauee of the en tire line, from Goldsboro to Morehesd City, is now that of the standard recent ly adopted for all of the wide gauge railroads throuehout the country. The good order in which the- change was effected reflects credit upon the management of the road. The entire work was completed in six days, and without an accident of any kind what ever, and not missing even a single con nection. ' President Bryan, after know ing the change had to be made, saw his opportunity and went squarely at the work, doing the same over the entire 95 miles of roadway, with merely his own force of about sixty men. This made it slower of course, but made the expanse light and saved much money to the road. Another important point gained in so early effecting the change of gauge is that the work has been done before the truck shipping season begins. The truckers along the line of the Atlantio Road now save the expense and annoy ance of a transfer at Goldsboroand they will have the advantage of securing for their use cars especially built for truck shipping, well ventilated and fitted up in the most modern style. There seems to be much life in the "Old Mullet" yet. We are told that notwithstanding the crippled condition of the road in the past, the present able management has managed to pay off the old indebtedness of the road and the change of gauge, and of the rolling stock to conform to it, has been effected without assistance from outside. Hur rah, for the "Old Mullet!" She stands ahead of all the other roads in changing the gauge. Atlanta Month. Opeu. Six months ago we had no demand for B. B. B., but now our retail demand is such that we are forced to buy in gross lots. We attribute the rapid and enormous demand to the comparative size and price of B. B. B. (being large bottles for $1) and its positive merit. It sells well and gives our customers en tire satisfaction. Our sales have in creased 500 per cent, within a few months.

The foundation of the house in which Shakespear spent the latter portion of his life still remains. Ex-President Arthur's illness is des cribed as more serious than his friends are willing to admit. A Wisconsin man has been sued for damages because his bees trespassed upon his neighbors pasture. A place where old Roman coins are manufactured has been discovered in Connecticut. They satisfy the curious all the same. Jeff. Davis has written a letter ex pressing his views as to what legislation might be adopted to bring about har mony and unity of action between cap ital and labor. The North Carolina Teacher for April is a good number, containing a number or articles of real merit. It opens with an excellent poem entitled, "Memory's Wreath," by Martha Mills, of 'lhomas ville,N. C. Foreign countries, and especially Ger many, are watching the movements of France with no little interest. For the last few years France has been quietly, but in a most methodical manner, mak ing arrangements whereby she could instantly mobilize her entire forces in the event of an outbreak of war.

Richard Wooten. a colored man. died of pneumonia in our town last Saturday night. Hot and drv in our town. We hear that a light rain fell last Sunday a few miles north of this place. Chief Pitts had a good job of locking up in our place Saturday. Two found their way into the guard house. The ladies in town decorated the M. E. Church last Saturday Sundav being Easter. The decorations were very fine. Cotton planting is going on, by those not already done. The earth is very dry in places and. the crop is not ex pected to come up till rain. Rev.

Misses Lillie Rouse and Lillian Dillon, from Peace Institute, Raleigh, spent three or four days at their homes last week. They returned Monday. Scott, the Goldsboro house mover, has changed things around in our vil lage wonderfully. A big improvement has been made in this business in a few years, the roller taking the place of the pine pole slid. Very few of our citizens have engaged in the trucking business this rear, and these en a small scale. The few peas planted about here are looking tolerably well, the potatoes are better, etc. We hope those who are trying this business this year will meet with better success than last year. The series of meetings at the M. E. Church are still going on. The services last week, by Rev. Mr. Uolden, were very instructive, and good was accomp lished. Rev. Mr. Byrd arrived from Morehead City Monday morning and will assist the pastor, Rev. Mr. Rose. Four additions up to this writing. Much nterest has been taken in the meetings by all our business men and citizens, the stores being closed and business suspended during the morning service. Excitement in Texas. Great excitement has been caused in the vioinity of Paris, Texas, by the re markable reoovery of Mr. J. E. Corley, who was so helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise his head; everybody said he was dying of Consumption. A trial Dottle of Ur. rung s JNew Uisoovery was sent him. Finding relief, he bought a large bottle and a box of Dr. King's New Life Pills; by the time he had taken two boxes of pills and two bottles of the Discovery, ho was well and had gained in flesh thirty-six pounds.

The structure will cost $1,000,000 and will be surmounted by a powerful electric light that will he visible, it is believed, as far as Dijon, which is 197 miles southeast of Paris. STILL ANOTHER PASTEUR PATIENT DIES. Paris, April 24 The Russian woman who was bitten by a mad wolf, and who had been under treatment by M.Pasteur for the prevention of hydrophobia, died today of the malady. The failure of the treatment in her case is ascribed to the delay in its commencement. Prof. Koscoe, the celebrated English chemist, and four other British medical scientists, have arrived here to study M. Pasteur's system of inoculation. - ORANGEMEN AND CATHOLICS. Glasgow, April 24. A collision be tween Orange and Catholic roughs oc curred after the holding of a Loyalist meeting here yesterday. Four arrests were made. At a later hour an orange mob attacked a Catholio chapel which was crowded with worshippers and smashed all the windows. The few po lice who were present were powerless to nrevent the mob s work of destruc tion. The priest, conducting tne services in the chapel, ordered the doors to be locked and thus prevented the mob from doing further mischief. Ernul Items.
