RALEIGH, Oct. 3.-[SPEcIAL To THE
DURHAM SIGN BOARD OF TRUTH. +
This is the third day Of the great South
ern Interstate Exposition and it is a
big success.
Yesterday was Durham Day and quite
crowd from the Bull city were here
looking at the sights.
| 1t is unfortunate, | think, that Durham
should have been placed so near the top
of the programme as ! am confident
more would have availed themselves of
the opportunity and turned out in regu-
lar old Durham style, had the date been
fixed later.
Col. J. S. Carr, Capt. J. \. Lockhart,
c. G. Farthing, Edgar Cheek and many
| other Durhamites were seen on the expo
sition floor during the day.
| Capt. Lockhart is down to superin-
tend the construction of his exhibit,
which will be one Of the finest.
The aeronauts did not "get OFF, as
| they cali it, yesterday. The wind was
too strong for them. 4 wind protector
was built this morning and they went
out o'sight almost. The professor says
! that when he got up into ClOudtOwn he
saw 3 mighty city about thirty miles
west Of here and from the description, |
suppose he got a glimpse of Durham.
i'Just after the professor returned aud re-
lated his experience, his vile ierhetl
hold Of. the parachute and in the twink
ling Of an eye she was off and up; up
she went like q sky rocket until she
looked Ike an apple swinging 10 kite.
Both got back to earth safely and the
crowd was somewhat disappointed as
there was q grim suspicion that it you'd
result otherwise. Professor Dimson saws
that he has been nearer heaven than any
saint Or sinner in Raleigh. Some time
ago his balloon got on SO much steam
that the break wouldn't work and SO he
went up two solid miles before he could
find stopping place. The balloon peo-
pie will go up every day now wind or
no wind, (Sundays excepted) The wind
protector insures this.
The Durham Band and Orchestra bows
are in a terrible fix.
Yesterday when the band composed Of
twelve fair darlings from Greenwood,
Indiana, marched into the Exposition
building with their cute little caps, frills
and bangs, the Durham boys bowed and
politely told them they could have the
first too.
Ii was novel sight and soon attracted
big crowd.
And how the Darlings did toot
The Durham boys stood aghast and
before the Darlings stopped to catch
their breath, they began to tremble, their
teeth commenced chattering and their
knees knocked together for support.
When the Darlings stopped footing
and the applause died away search was
made but up to this hour they have not
been found
They are really in a terrible fix and
the Darlings are doing all the footing.
In the afternoon the editors monop-
olized the menagerie.
Several were seen hunting for the free
lunch counter.
Col. Ramsey, Of the Progressive
Farmer, tore his pants in attempting to
go down The switch back railroad on all
fours
Col. Hollowman, who writes personals
for the Winston paper, attempted to
ascend upward in the balloon, but the
gas didn't believe in upholding COMPETE
ton and wouldn't allow it.
Col. Early, Of the BERTHE Avalanche,
was seen riding on the spinning jenny;
it is said he viii establish new spaper
wien his w1iskers grow.
Col, Will X. Y. L. Coley, of the Mocks-
vile Times, is here interviewing the
ladies band; some one said yesterday if
his paper was not red his head was. He
will act as an electric light plant and
will illuminate the grounds. Mr.. Patrick
9e$N t-ittt WIN St4Ch 41Gdu anu ibtAlL1-
sey's nlustacLe, he sees no need Of any
electric light to illuminate the building
at nights.
l am rushed to-day but will write
you some stuff next week.

Certain hard words. made into pills.
Simply to swell the doctor bills
are not what constitute DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgatiye Pellets. They are
tiny, sugar-coated, purely vegetable pills,
as pleasant as confectionery to the tate,
and acting upon the stomach and liver
gently but effectually, and as naturally
as Nature herself. For sici, headache,
indigestion, bilIi0usness, constipation,
and all the resulting diseases, no laxative
equal to them has ever been discovered.
Mr.. Vernon Darnau
will resume his classes at the St. Cecelia
Hall on September Il.
