The foun dation of the monument was finished Saturday. At the earnest solicitation ot many friends who wish to take the cheap trip to Wilmington the managers of the excursion have postponed it to Tuesday of next week, the date first chosen being too close to memorial day for convenience of pre paration. There is an encuraging outlook now. More tickets were taken yesterday, and as the number is limited the only sure way of securing one is for the name for the same to be promptly left at Mr. D- F, Jarvis' store.

Scott, is making for hi n,8elf a fine record at the State Agricultural arfl Mechanical Col lege in which he is a student in his first year. When the es9ay contest occurred at Christmas, he won first honors and a gold medal with his literary production upon Agriculture, and now in the annual declamatory contest which came off last Friday night, he has asrain won the victory and added another golil mednl to bis laurels. The eootest was open to all the stud- ente ot the college and fifteen tried to achieve the honors. Out of the num ber, Mr. Scott's lending competitor was Mr. Paul Stanly, of Goldsboro, of the sophomore class. He had advantages ovtr Mr. Scott in age as well as in the length ot,tlme he had been attending school, and Mr. Scott, with the odds against him scarcely hoped for more than to. acquait himself creditably before the assembled audience,and he naturally feels laudably elated at the success that crown ed his efforts. BUHTIXGAHD riflHIHH. Pot Ont the Fire Themselves- The dry-kiln of Chattaka mills, those of D. Congdon & Co., were discovered to be on fire yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock. around one of the ventilators. The firemen were quickly on the scene, but the fire had been extinguished before they arrived by the mill men with their appliances for the purpose. Connection was made with a hydrant and a little water was thrown by the Bremen but It was no showing of ac tual work. As the wind was carrying whatever sparks might have come from the mill in an opposite direction from tbe drykiln the fire is supposed to have caught by sparki from a passing locomotive. The excellency of Capt Congdon'sar- nuigemenu) tor exungtusning are was highly complimented on account of the work done yesterday; the fire at first was supposed to be inside the kiln, and steam which would quickly have exonguised it there wag at once turned into the kiln by a large steam pipe direct from the boiler, a length of hose wag goon attached to the pumps and in a little over a minute one stream of water was . on the. fine and then two of them, being 1 J inch ones, were being thrown upon it inside of three minutes, with the result that it wag soon out . ; A gentleman who tells us that he hat been all over the country and been in tbe largest mills north and south, but has never seen any ether so fully equipped for fighting fire as this one. Tbe mill it self tan in a lew minutes apply water oa anv that occurs, n : X ? - There are two pumps each of which can throw two streams, and 600 feet of hose besides tbe automatic sprinkler, aa elevated tank from which the fifth stream can be taken but which is desinened vn marily for extinguishing fires by its own action; pipes extend rrotn it through the mills, and at intervals, there are openings wuicn nave Deen ciom who easily melt ing metal which, should a fire start, would melt towards tbe fire and spray it with all the water then standing in the tank., - ':' UoM Sports oa the Lake !f car New Bene Eagles, Alligator. Deer aaa Bear, Tbe lakes that lie a few miles Irom the line of the A. 4. X. C. R.B. a little be low New Berne are attractive spots for the lovers of the rod ihd gnn. Their characteristics are told in tportamrns, book that have a national cir culation, and we iloubt not that manv of our own citizens could go to these pul: lished aorks ami h-nru facts about these bunting ami fishing resort to which thev arc conipur itive strangers though they lie within about a 'loz'n inilei of the city. Two viit :u le to one of the Lakes last week hy yon . ; people on pleasure bent. Tie -t n t m each case was made from I'o.uk L.ville, near which vil Ug BMh4 f tein vwMded.- a joonwy of about seven miles leing required for them l'i reach their destination. The lake ebnsen was the one designa ted na Cat-fish lake, which lies near ti e boundary line of Craven and Jones nullities. It is a body ot water ittserviii!; of a let ter title, being five miles wide, ami eight long slid abounding in tine iMi along with a few of tlie kin. I which il naiue would lead a stringer to supp isc were its principle inhabitants. The first of the trip alluded to whs by a fishing party of young ladies and gentle men. This party consisted of Messrs. Alonzo Bryan, and John Bender ol l'ol- locksville. Miss Maggie Hunter of Ilavc lock; Mrs. Hortcnse White of Crontan: Mrs Matttie, Simpson of Riverdule and Misses Hattio Washburn and Selina V .v of Pollocksville. Thev spent the la y at the lake and secured a good supply ot perch, robins, etc. One of the vouug ladies: Miss l-'ov. was tort uuatej?) enough to catch :i cat fish so large that it took the stjen'-th of one of the young men to gel Imn out ol the water. Mr. Allen Bender a brother of Mrs. John Render ran a deer into the lake ami the hoys put out, alter him wilh their boat to knock him In the hen I with their oars, uot having guns along but he was two swift lor them and got away. The day passed pleasantly ami all went home well satisfied with the strip. Friday afternoon seven young men went to tlielake for u hunt, camping there all night and beginning early Saturday morning. Their lun began though, about us soon as they arrived. An eagle s nest was espied up a tree wliose branches over hung the waters of the lake and Mr. John Pritchard resolved to have the young eag les and heroically mounted the tree. All the others laid down their weapons and became so ardently interested in watch (l is movements that the swilt apprjacli of another very much interested parly was passed unnoticed by all. This was the old eagle. Tlio first intimation any one had of his presenco was when he swooped down upon Mr. Pritchard and planted his talons in his clothing at his shoulder. Mr. Pritchard instantly t!i-cv up both hands to ward off the attack of the powerful bird, and as hu loosed his hold upon the tree the eagle pulled him over so far that he lost his balance and came tumbling downward about thirty feet into the water below, By this time those on shore had all re covered their guns; all fired and the cugl e tell. He didn't have much chance to do otherwise but the young men accorded tbe honor of killing him to Mr. John lienaer. ir. was a gray eagle and meas ured five feet from tip to tip. Mr. Pritchard fortunately was not hurt either by his encounter with the the eagle or by his fallvbut he thinks that next time he'd rather fight something else than on engle. He didn't volunteer his services to go up that tree again. Neither did any of the others and the young eag les are there yeK possibly being looked after by the other parent bird. Another incident or toe evening was the killing of an alligator by Mr. John R. Oliver. rne alligator measured 7 teet. one load of ten buck shot close to bis shoul ders did the work; the young men had been alligator bunting before and knew just where to fire. : Tbey tell as that tbe lake is filled with alligators, but that they will not trouble a man, though it is death to a dog to en ter its waters, and at the barking, the al ligators heads can be seen popping out of the water all-around. V ; ' The best luck at alligator shooting was 2 years ago when three of them, Messrs. Blount Berry, Edward Mattocks and Em- mitt Bender, all of Pollocksville, killed seven In half an hour. : . . They wound up their sport for the last trip by a deer hunt the next morning; when tbe dog started him he made for the lake, under fire' of two of the hunters, both ? of y whom , missed .him, but after he . reached tbe water he was chased for a mile' and a half and finally killed by Mr. J. M Bender. It was quite a fine' buck. - . Having secured venison enough to give all as much as they wished U t the time being, the happy hunter turned home ward with plans in their head for a bear hunt on their next expedition. . Aaother Sad Bog. Sunday morning, when Mr. A. L. Brj sn. of Pollocksville. srose he found that his bird dog had gcjiic mad; and was tearing around near ilu- house biting at the bushes and tni.

The Suprnna court has granted voun Fuller, convicted of murder at Favtlc ville. a new trial. Proposed Convict Farm For Iloyer. We clip the following item from the Morganton Herald as seat to it by its I! deigh Concoionclent. "There are 1 ,0"i0 convicts now at work on lao three i'arms on Roanoke. This is all that are nec le I there unless the Mate had more mules. One hundred and lifly muli s are now there. " This Summer 'iovu-ior Carr, Super intendent Leizir and the directors will visit the lands near Dover on the Atlanta and North Carolina railroad, and ex amine them with an eye I i using them as l:i in i s .

It would seem much better to use I t State's own lauds ' Iran to pay high rents to private parties, specialh on so treacherous a -feaui as 1! i 01 ike. "The Slate owns the Atlantic and and North Carolina railway and could easily build hi . in li rouls throie'h the farms." If the Slate is going to keep on the binning business, it seems reasonable to suppose that it would be hotter for it lo do so on its own land than on leased binds hut it appears to us that a still better way is to put the convicts on the roads.
