Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The dry goods market
to-day shows easier conditions for buyers a re-
duction in print cloths reported sales at Fail
River yesterday and very low prices fixed on
fancy spring prints of the Simrson line have made
it possible for buyers to trade practically at their
own terms. There have been many reports that
these stated reductions have been awaited by
buyers and that the knowledge that they were
to come has been stultifying factor in the mar
ket heretofore. With these prices openly made
and with the conformity with them there is every
reason to suppose that buyers will be ready to
take goods which they have hitherto refused to
purchase. Print cloths sold in Fall River
TO the extent of $4,000 pieces at 2Ac this being
the lowest price ever reached in the history of
the trade. In prints the feature of the market
has been the rev prices made on the Simpson
goods as follows: Blacks and whites, 4Ac: silver
grays, 4Ac; solid blacks, 44c; three-quarter per-
Gales, 4Ac; Shepard. 4Ac; novelty fancy prints,
Age and staple prints, &C per yard.

BIG TRUCK MOVEMENT.
Biggest Day for Truck Shipment for a
First Weeks Shipment
(Newbern Journal.)

(Newbern Journal)
The truckers of this section while they
have been so favored by freedom from
frost, and general favorable weather con-
ditions, are not slow in Selling every pos
sible advantage, and are pushing forward,
daily, all THE truck that can possibly
move.
Superintendent Dill of the A. and n.
G.. X. r., said that last Tuesday was the
biggest day for truck shipments, exceed
ing in number of packages, for a first
weeks shipments carried by any train
ever run run on his road. Thirty two cars
had to be run to accommodate the bust
ness.
The new management of the A. and n.
G. II. r., have assurances from all the
truckers that it will be given their bust
ness, as these shippers are fully satisfied
that the road is being run for their bene-
fit as far as possible, in the way of giving
them the best accommodations and the
lowest freight rates.

That is What Wake Forest Man Says

That is What Wake Forest Man Says
of Chapel Hills Claim-Challenge the
University Team.
Wake Forest, n c., May 6.-(SpeciaD
in the account of the recent baseball
game between Chapel Hill and Franklin,
Va, the writer went far out of his way
to inform the public that Chapel Hill had
woefully shut OUT team which had
defeated Wake Forest.
The only fair test of strength between
the Wake Forest and Franklin teams for
this season was played Monday, the 3d.
and resulted in a score of ) to /, in favor
of Wake Forest. A disorganized part OF
the Franklin team went to Chapel Hill
and met with defeat, as any rational man
would have expected; but this game gives
the latter team no grounds for claiming
a victory over Wake Forest.
Pennsylvania defeated Chapel Hill,
Georgia shut Pennsylvania out, and
Wake Forest defeated Georgia. If by in
direct means the strength of the two
teams is to be measured, then it is but
justice to take account of the entire re-
cord "A fair game between Wake For
est and Chapel Hill will prove more con-
clusively the strength of the two teams.
Wake Forest is anxious for such a game,
and will never concede the championship
of the State so long as Chapel Hill hides
behind her scrub team" and refuses I'M
der any consideration to cross bats.

SOMETHING TO DEPEND ON.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm Of
Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,, in speaking
of DIR. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
La Grippe, and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. 1t seemed to
develop into Hasty Consumption. Hav-
ing DR.. Kings New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took bottle
home, and to the surprise of all she
began to get better from the first dose,
and half dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and wen. DIR. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds is guaranteed to do this good work
Try it. Free trial bottles at any drug

three Of the old directors here-Messrs.
l. l. Davis and J. G. Mills of Burke,
and J. p. Caldwell. Of Mecklenburg-

c:siOn, the Governor appointed Messrs.

succeed the three gentlemen first
named. The law provides, however, that
persons holding office or place shall con-
tlnue to so hold until their successors
