BosroS, October 30.-The strike OF
journeymen freestone cutters, in pro
gress since February 2Sth, was declared
off last evening. The cause of the de-
feat is alleged to be the disunited action
of the Building Trades Council and the
refusal of the carpenters and brick
layers to strike after pledging their sup
port. During the trouble $1,000 was
expended to maintain the struggle and
but seven OF the 275 members OF the
union returned to their old employers.

Dixon's Address To-Day.
tCorrespondence OF tho Richmond Dispa'ch.l
WELDON, n. c., October 30, 1890.
An immense crowd thronged the Fair
Grounds to-day, and the town was lite
rally overrun with visitors All OF the
excursion trains brought In hundreds OF
people, and the country cousins from
the hills and valleys poured into town
until there was perfect jam of moving,
iostling humanity Yesterday the wea-
Their was raw, damp, and stormy, and
there were comparatively few people IN
the Fair Grounds, but to-day the wea-
Their is all that could be desired. The
sun rose bright and clear this morning
and by the time it's welcome, smiling
face was lifted above the tree-tops the
streets of Weldon presented lively APP
pearance, and the country people fairly
tlocked into town.
FULLY TEN THOUSAND.
It is estimated that fully ten thousand
strangers are here to day and that at least
five thousand visited the fairgrounds.
Rev. Thomas Dixon, of New York. came
down from Wake Forest this morning,
and will deliver the annual address at the
grounds to-day. His subject will be
"The Moral Import of the Farmers
Alliance" Governor Fowle will intro
duce him, and thousands will listen to
his eloquent words. He will lecture to-
night at the Baptist church on "Fools. F"
This will doubtless be entertaining and
amusing. There will be brilliant ger
man at the Atlantic Coast-Line Hotel to-
night, and tomorrow night grand ball.
This is indeed gala week, and she is in
her best holiday attire. To-day's crowd
is the largest ever known here before.

people who propose marriage. My own
idea OF q betrothal is as strict as that
held in European countries, and think
it should only be broken for reasons
which would be deemed sufficient for
dissolvlng the marriage contract. | con-
