The Chapel lillian is the name of
new weekly paper that will be issued at
Chapel Hill, next Tuesday. Messrs Ashe
and BonitZ, two students of the Univer-
sity, are the editors. Mr.. D. W. Whita-
aker, of this place, is the printer.
The regular monthly meeting of the
St. Cecilia Society will be held at Stokes
Hall this evening at 7:30 o'clock Theme
"an informal consideration of Chapins
compositions" All active and honorary
members are requested to be present
The thin dog owned by Colonel Hut
chins, bookkeeper at Dukes factory, cast
shadow yesterday. This is the first
time in its history that it was thick enough
to make shadow Colonel Hutchins
has now given up the idea of embalming
the dog.
Captain E. J. Parrish has written us
another snake story. 1t will appear in
the early spring, the first of charming
series by our home people. The editor
will write some snake stories himself, to
accompany these, and this is an attrac-
tion worth going miles to read.
When the locks for the mail boxes
arrive, do not fail to drop letter in the
slot. But be sure to put two cent stamp
on it, no matter where it is going. Also
if you drop letter in the postoffice for
any one in the city, do not forget that a
two cent stamp is necessary to insure it
getting in the box of the person to whom
it is addressed.
People are again warned against
putting letters in the city mail boxes
until the locks arrive, as the postoff1ce
authorities will not be responsible for
mail deposited in them until they can be
thus secured. Notwithstanding THE
GLOBES warning yesterday, Colonel AL
bright informs us that two letters were
found in them this morning.
The following registered at the Clai-
born to-day: J. L. Meyer, Atlanta; Chas.
c. Baker, J. H. Daniel, J. A. Higgs, AL
Ian Higgs, w. D. Roock, r. A Gray and
Tom Gorch, Baltimore; d. n. Durham
Richmond; E. B. Hall and N. R. Young,
Raleigh; w. II. Hill, Danville; H. L.
Anderson, Lynchburg; T. G. Gould, ST
Louis; w. G. Balm, Greensboro.
THE GLOBE would make this sug-
geston: If some live man will open up
an office, put line of drays on the streets
which will not be eternally doing some
thing else, he will make money. There
is no chance now to get package hauled
block, without devoting half day to
chasing a drayman. There should be an
office where orders could be left
7 Captain Ramsey says that he had
1876 numbers for houses, and that he has
sold them all but 1895. Major W. A
Guthrie was the first and only man tc
walk up and buy one. Our citizens should
see Captain Ramsey and get their mum
bers from him. He has taken the num-
bers, some three or four weeks work
e without pay, and he should be rewarded
Colonel Robert Carr this morning
showed us a model for a slot machine
g which convinces us of his inventive
| genius. 1t is a simple contrivance which
will be attached to a letter box. You
drop penny in and out comes a one
cent stamp. If you drop in five cents ;
one cent stamp and two twOs will come
out. By magnet which weighs so &C
e curately that hair would throw off th'
S guage, counterfeit money cannot be taken
4 nickle little bit worn would fail t.
d. respond. A letter from the postmaste
, general to Colonel Robert Carr tells hin
that his machine will doubtless be ac
cepted in the spring of nineteen hundred
i when the birds commence to sing.
