A GRAND FESTIVAL.

To BE Held for the Soldiers Home
Fund-.-It will Begin July 1st..And
Will be on Grand Scale.
At meeting of the Ladies' Memorial
Association, held at Mrs. j. B. Batch
elor's yesterday, it was decided to hold a
grand festival in Nash Square beginning
on the evening of July 1st, and contin-
uing four days. 1t will be in aid of the
Soldiers Home, than which no object
could be worthier or appeal more power
fully to popular sympathy:
The home is to be established in Raleigh
This an absolute certainty. Mr.. W. @.
Stronach and Col. A. B Andrews are
looking for suitable building for it.
Money is needed and needed at once.
and it is proposed to raise q large sum
at this festival, which will be the .larg-
est and most attractive ever held in the
State.
The people of Raleigh now have their
opportunity of showing what they can
do in this matter of providing a home
and comforts for soldiers, of whom no
less than twenty-five are now in various
poor houses.
The plan is to utilize Nash squares
ample space for various attractions. All
sorts of booths and bazaars, amateur
theatricals, dancing, music, and amuse-
ments will be provided, and electric
lights will make the place as light as
day.
The ladies of Raleigh will show
their love for the old soldiers by giving
their most generous aid to the festival.
1t can be made worthy of the city and
the State and of the object for which it
is held.
1t is proposed to secure cheap rates of
fare on the railroads, so as to afford the
residents of nearby points an opportu-
nifty to participate in the pleasures of
the occasion. The ladies also bespeak
the hearty co o-operation of the military
and benevolent organizations and of all
who feel an interest in the matter in
hand.
What the people here can do when
called on was shown in August, 1873.
when at one niaht's festival in the capi-
tol square more than 81 900 was raised
tor the yellow fever sufferers. It is
hoped that at this festival, in which all
the old soldiers who can will cooperate.
that this fine record will be beaten.

Is Oxford Improvement stock good?
Certainly! What is it based upon9 On
500 acres of land lying in and adjoining
the town of Oxford; on 400 acress more
suburban property, controlled by the
company, and on the 500 acres of min
eral lands and also fac bright tobacco
lands, upon which the company has op-
tions.
How much stock is thereg Three
Thousand shares of $50 each. And lots
are given away? To each holder of two
shares a lot of 5Ox15O feet will be given.
Where will these lots lie2 In desirable
parts OF the land right at the town and
on continued and parallel streets. Will
these lots be worth the price paid for
the stock? Yes.
Every holder of two shares gets lot2
Yes, except the original subscribers.
By resolution of the board of directors
they excluded themselves from this priv
ilege for the benefit of other subscri-
bers.
Why was the company started?
To advance Oxford, make it the pride
of the Golden Belt, and to make money
for the share holders.
Will it succeed? It will. 1900 lot
holders will not let il sleep. Tobacco is
as good to make q town of as iron. It
employs more hands. It is a luxury
that is necessity, and trade may be
ever so dull, but the world will chew
