THEY LIKE RALEIGH.

The members of the Charlotte Dram
attic Club were highly pleased with the
Raleigh, and paid high compliments 10
the City of Oaks" While here they
were given the freedom of the Capital
Club. and the Club gave in their honor
one of the most elegant germans OF
the season. In the afternoon they were
driven over the city, and shown the
principal points of interest. And they
had here the largest house they have
played to on the tour. Yesterday
morning they left for Reidsville, where
they played last night. Tonight they
play in Hickory.
Raleigh people We're charmed with
aThe Congressman and the Charlotte
Dramatic Club.
This tour is voluntary eontribu-
ton of time and talent to the fund for
the erection of the Vance monument,
and deserves the highest praise.

FOR a GLORIOUS FOURTH.

Manager Johnson, of the Street Rail
way, yesterday obtained number OF
subscriptions to the fund of $75 that
citizens of Raleigh are required to
subscribe to assure the grand display
of fireworks at Pullen Park on July
4th The amount required OF each per-
son is so small that no business man
can fail to subscribe his part. The
proposition of the Street Car Company
is as generous as can be proposed.
The matter of fireworks ought to
be settled to-day.
And then preparations should be
begun for a glorious Fourth.
A series Of races and a good game Of
baseball should be arranged for the
day, the ball in the morning and the
races in the afternoon. This could be
done almost without expense.
Reduced rates should be at once Sc
cured on all railroads leading into the
city, and the attractions of the day well
advertised.
If THE Chamber Of Commerce Will
take the matter in hand, thousands OF
visitors may be attracted to the city
on the Fourth.

NO INCREASE in COTTON,

Apples and Peaches.

To-day the State Department of Ag-
riculture will issue the June crop bull
Ietin. This is of more than usual in
terest
"All during the spring, " said Com
missioner Patterson, there has been
much surmse regarding the increase
in the cotton acreage, most people sup
posing there would be a vast increase
in acreage over last year. The unpre-
cedented sale of commercial fertilizers
in the spring seemed to confirm this
belief, and the cotton men everywhere
reported that the increase would be
phenomenal.
"trhe department of agriculture has
taken especial care to ascertain
from it's many pOndents in every
county in the State the exact increase
in the cotton crop as compared with
last years acreage. At the time of the
May report this was to some extent a
matter of conjecture, since cotton
planting was not then finished. But
this month it is possible to present as
near the exact figures as will be posi-
BILE. This was the reason for the spe-
cial investigation of the last month.
From the reports of all our CORES
pondents careful estimate shows that
the mc1 ease is just fifteen per cent.
The United States Department of Agri-
culture puts the figures at seventeen
per cent That report puts the size of
the crop as similar to that of the year
1894, and this would make the yield
of the State about the average yield
for the past five years. The condi-
ton of cotton is better than'last year,
being 102.
''The increase in the cotton crop has
been accomplished without any cores
ponding decrease in the crop of corn,
which is 90 compared with 1895. The
condition is excellent, being rated at
1O2.
There is a slight increase in the
acreage of tobacco, that crop being
rated at 104 as compared with last
year. The condition is '95, little un-
der average.
wheat was cut short by the dry
weather and the yield is only IS.
s'Put cats suffered more from the
dry weather than any other grain crop,
and the yield is only ~.
1.-THE prospect for the apple crop,
one of the staples in the western coun-
ties, is very unfavorable, being rated
at only 46.
Grapes are rated at 95.
Peaches share the same fate as APP
pies, and there will be only half crop,
fifty per cent.
Irish potatoes suffered considerably
from the dry weather and are rated
at S4, while sweet potatoes are growing
finely and show an average crop, 100
per cent.
..The dry weather has affected gar
dens and they are rated at % per cent.
Generally the farmers write in good
spirits, except where severe hail storms
have swept away crops in limited
areas. The most severe of these, and
one of the worst hail storms the State
has known. occurred at Wake Forest
a week ago.
"The leading crops, the great staples
like corn and cotton, are doing well,
and have fine prospects"
