out the CO. operation OF the building
committee.
"And, whereas, the board of commits
sioners have heretofore made and en-
tered into contracts, in the making of
which contracts, said building commit
tee did not participate, now, therefore,
"Resolyed, that it is the sense of this
body that all said contracts are invalid
and are not binding upon the county
and no further proceedings should be
made Hereunder.
"Resolved, further, that in view OF
the fact that payments have been made
from the county treasury upon certain
of said contracts, such steps should be
taken by this body as will fully protect
the interests of the county in that re-
gard, either by way OF a compromise or
settlement with the parties interested,
or by resort to the proper legal pro-
ceedings to effect that end. And that
as to all other contracts on which no
payment has been made, or upon which
improper payments have been made,
they be wholly disregarded.
''And be il further resolved that this
body shall from this date henceforth
proceed to carry on the work of erect
ing the new court house by harmonious
cooperation in accordance with law
and the decision of said circuit court.
And that we proceed to advertise for
and let to competition all the necessary
contracts for the erection of said court
house in all cases whers compromise
or adjustment of existing contracts
made by said board of commissioners,
can not be effected to the satisfaction
of this body"
The resolution was lost by the follow
ing vote: Ayes, Ault, Baldwin and
Merry; nays, Gundy, Gibson, Knight;
Beyerstock not voting.
The commissioners expressed a will
lingness to take up each contract, from
the very beginning of the entire mat
ter, discuss and investigate it, and if
any are improperly or illegally let, or

agree to adjust, revise or even annul
them, SO that they be made proper, but
they refuse to wipe out the whole busi-
ness from beginning to end, without
first investigating, or having proper
regard for those contractors who have
been doing work in good faith. The
commissioners, however, have officially
agreed to co operate in future, with the
building committee, and if the commit
tee are all of one mind they can accom-
plish pretty much what they desire.

New York Fashion Letter.

Madame La Mode displays a tendency
to revive the fashions of Louis XVI.
These fancies appear in the redingote
gowns with the fronts cut away to show
q vest of lowered fabric. Old fashioned
fichus and wide brimmed hats complete
the gowns copied from this epoch. All
varieties of Louis XVI coats appear,
made of satin, silk, lowered velvet and
lace Costumes of white alpaca will be
much worn during midsummer at the
seashOre and mountains. Evening silks
with POmpadOur cOlOrs are exceedingly
popular, and for afternoon gowns figured
lawn and India null, trimmed with in
sertions OF yellow lace are decorated
with chiffon boas and fancy girdles OF
ribbon and flowers. Wash costumes
this season are more in vogue than ever.
Beautiful morning dresses are made OF
French bingham, fancy linen duck and
pique. The large collar over the shoulder
is seen everywhere. 1t constitutes the
regular collar Of the cotton tailor gown
and outing dresses. 1t decorates in an
adjustable form fancy silk bodices and is
| seen also outside of heavy cloth jackets.
| Its material is varied, ranging from tulle
| and lace to grass cloth, duck, silk and
velvet. Many of the new skirts are box
| pleated, and all the sleeves voluminous.
| Yellow lace is used upon every costume
| of whatever style or color. 1t trims the
yoke, sleeves, collar, fsku, and in some
cases the skirt. OF all the Fashion Mag
zines at hand we find the popular
Mcdowell Journals most replete in prac-
| teal information.

At MOrehead CITY.

Mr.. w. G. Erwin. Of the Morganton
Herald, writes thus entertainingly
about Morehead City:
The Atlantic Hotel stands on mar
row slip of land lying between Bogue
sound and Newport river. 1t is a
mammouth Structure containing ample
room for one thousand guests. The
dining room and the ball room are the
largest in the State. The sea breeze,
cool and invigorating, fans every nook
and corner in the great building and
sweeps in delicious volume through the
halls and verandas. There are no flies
or mosquitoes, and famed by the salt
sea breezes and lulled by the murmur
Of the tide, sleep, in the words of
editor McDiarmid, sis one happy,
dreamless snooze."
Just beneath the windows in the
rear of the hotel lies Bogue Sound,
clear and placid, bordered by groves
of live oak and fringed with verdant
salt marshes and outlined along its
seward shore by a broken range Of
cleaning sand dunes. A mile away
beyond the inlet lies old Beaufort bask-
ing in the sunlight or cooling off with
the South sea breeze under the shade
Of elms and live oaks centuries old.
Down on the point of the sand banks
stands venerable Fort Macon, its big
guns silent, its moat dried up. its great
court deserted. its magazine filled with
powder that the damp has rendered
harmless and with balls and shells that
the new science of war has rendered
useless toys. Beyond the dunes the
surf rolls in from the open sea on as
fine beach as the Atlantic coast can
boast, the breakers warmed by the
gulf stream and the breezes fresh from
the Bahamas six hundred miles tt
southwark. An old Norwegian barque
that met its doom in gale off Cape
| Lookout, lies high and dry out on the
treacherous sand bar. White winged
sharpies skim the waves bearing gay
parties to beach or fort or out across
| the bar to try the effect Of the bis
ocean waves. Such are the surround
ings of Morehead by the sea.

The Vacancy Filled.

The Board of Trustees of the Wilson
Graded School met on Tuesday after
noon for the purpose of filling the va
cancy in the corps of teachers caused by
the resignation of Miss Matte Harrison.
Quite a number of applications were
before the Board but the choice fell upon
Miss Nettie NJ. Allen, Of Kittrell. She as
the rest filed her examination papers and
the very highest recommendations from
the faculty of the State Normal School
from which she is full graduate.-Wi-
son Mirror.
The Trustees are to be congratu-
lated on their selection. Miss Allen is
highly accomplished young lady, and
will prove a valuab BILE accession to the
faculty of this or any other school.
While in Greensboro the other week
DR.. McIver was talking to US about
Miss Allen and pronounced her one OF
the brightest minds and most thorough
scholars he had taught.

To the Sunday-SchoOI Workers of
North Carolina.

For several reasons it has been deemed
best to postpone the State Convention,
appointed to be held at Goldsboro, Aug.
27-29, until Nov, the exact date not
being yet determined upon.
This will enable many more counties
to hold their local conventions and elect
delegates to the State Convention.
Notice will be given as soon as the date
has been decided upon. In the meantime
county officers are urged to hold town
ship and county conventions and select
their best representatives as delegates
to the State Convention. The program
is now being outlined and will be
announced us soon as completed. We
promise the Sunday-school workers of
the State one of the best conventions we
have ever had. Help us to make it THE
BEST. In His name. n. b. BROUGHTON,

Worthy of Imitation.

The Presbyterian Sunday-school of
Henderson has voted unanimously to
support one orphan at the Barium
Springs Orphanage. The Home now
has sixty-two inmates and the number
is limited only by the capacity to care
for them. The last issue of Our Faith
erless Ones says: Perhaps if the sub
ject should be presented to all churches
and Sunday-schools fully and faithfully
by pastors and superintendent our
grand old Synod might speedily provide
shelter, food, clothing and instruction
for all her fatherless ones.
