TWO NEW JAIL BIRDS.

His Liberty.

Until yesterday Lou Mcbride, who lives
on the Bowery and cooks for Mr.. John
Brown, was free, black and forty. She is
still black and forty but not free. Mayor
Russ yesterday morning deprived her
Of her freedom. 1t was all because Lou
found her Bowery home lonely place
and agreed to share her loneliness with
one Joe Adkins. Now when Joe counted
his cash yesterday morning he found he
was So short and he hied himself at once
to Mayor Russ to prefer charges against
Lou When the trial came up the evil
dence against the defendant was pretty
strong and straightforward, So she was
sent to Jail, in default of $40 bond, 60

REGISTRATION OF FERTILIZERS.
A New Registration is Required on De-
eember L

L.
The laws of North Carolina governing
the sale of fertilizers requires a new reg
istration Of all fertilizers and fertilizing
material every year. The fiscal year of
the Department of Agriculture begins
December 1st, and not January LIST, as
many suppose. Therefore all brands
now registered will expire November
30th The registration must be made
before goods can be legally shipped into
the State.
A notice has been sent to all fertilizer
manufacturers doing business in North
Carolina informing them of the law, and
most of them, as is usually the case, will
register their goods in time, but during
the changes from one fiscal year to an
other, and the consequent rush of fer
tilizers to supply the spring demand,
some manufacturers from neglect or
otherwise fail to comply with the law.
Farmers are therefore cautioned a
gainst buying any commercial fertilizers
not bearing the guaranteed claim and the
inspection tag on every sack as required
by law, and are requested to report to
the Commissioner OF Agriculture, at
Raleigh, any violations of the law. BY
doing this it will protect the farmer and
prevent spurious goods from being sold
in the State, or farmers being imposed
Bpon.
The fact that every bag of fertilizer or
fertilizing material is required by law
TO be properly labelled or branded with
the guaranteed claim of the manufac-
turer, and an inspection tag issued by
the Commissioner of Agriculture at
tached also to every sack, is evidence
that the manufacturer agents or deal
ers have complied with the law. The
department Of Agriculture is using every
possible means Tor the protection Of far
lners in the purchase OF fertilizers
10 have the law complied with. 1t is
practically impossible for the Inspectors
of the department to inspect every lot
Of fertilizer shipped into the State, or TO
he present at the hundreds of points
where fertilizers are delivered. 1t is
therefore earnestly asked that the farm
ers report at once to the Commissioner
any violation of the law.

THE UNIVERSITY RECORD.

Prof Collier Cobb, of the University OF
North Carolina, who came to Raleigh on
business Monday, returned to Chapel Hill
yesterday afternoon. He tells me that
the enrolment of students this year is
436, or only 10 less than it was during
the entire session last year. AS there
are usually some 30 or 40 new students
who always come in at the beginning of
the spring term, it is safe to say-that
there will be an increase of from 20 to
80 in the number of students enrolled this
year over last year. Prof. Cobb also
says that a new paper, the University
Record" will soon be started to take the
place, to a great extent, of the University
Magazine which was discontinued year
ago The Record, however, will be pub
Iished by the faculty, independent of
students and student work, and viii be
a record Of the work of the University
and its faculty. 1t win be modelled after
the Alumni Bulletin published by the
Chicago University and somewhat SINH
lar to the Alumni Bulletin of he Univer-
sity Of Virginia. The Record will be
published quarterly and will contain all
the scientific papers written by the ia
Guilty for various publications, their
speeches and lectures before various bod
les, and independent contributions.

HENszEY LOADED FOR LANGDoN
Says He's Willing to Submit his Record
to a Jury TO Decide.

Samuel A. Henszey, the receiver of the
Langdon- Henszey Coal Mining Compa-
ny, against whom so many sensational
charges are preferred by Sam. w. Lang
don, Of Philadelphia, in his petition for
Henszey's removal as receiver, passed
through Raleigh yesterday.
He told the News and Observer repor-
ter that he was only going to Norfolk,
but it was learned through other relia
BILE sources that he was on his way to
Philadelphia to consult with his friends
and relatives in regard TO Langdon's
suit He said that he had nothing what
ever to say in regard to the case; that
no papers had yet been served on him
and that when they were it would be
time enough to give some attention to
the matter. He intimated that he was
loaded for hot fight in the courts and
that his answer to Langdon's charges
would be something that that gentleman
would not soon forget. He has his re-
cord and / have mine, / am perfectly
willing to leave it to jury to decide
between u.s."
1t was learned from disinterested
source that one OF Langdon's charges
touching Henszey's incompetence and
negligence OF his duty as receiver is
wholly false and unfounded. That is,
that he failed to insure the fans, said
to be worth 800, which were burned.
The fans were insured in the Lancashire
Insurance Company of England, through
o. W. Carr & Co, agents, Greensboro,
in the name of S. A. Henszey, receiver.
The loss was adjusted and paid in full,
says my informant, the amount being
about $500

kept hotel it was; not better one in the
Windy City. You know all the Southern
people stopped there. Last summer he
kept the hotel at White Sulphur Springs,
