CRAVEN COUNTY.
The one case of Craven county Is cited
in full to Senator Pritchard, and he Is
asked whether, il such state of affairs
existed in his own county Of Madison, he
would say the latter was not under negro
domination. In Craven there are n ne
gro magistrates. deputy-sheriffs, Regis
ter of Deeds. 20 constables. Treasurer,
Coroner, all the Sheriffs deputies. all the
Clerks deputies; there being $500 negro
voters out of the 1900 voters in the
county.
A Democrat, Clement Manly. ex-State
chairman of the Democratic party, offer
ed to pay the expenses of any western
Republican who would go to Craven
county and see for himself If the condi-
tions as to negro domination were not
as bad as they were stated to be. The
Chatham Manufacturing Company, OF
Surry county, accepted the proposition,
and sent it's superintendent, David Wood
ruff, there. He made quiet inyestiga-
ton, and reports: THE real conditions
are far worse than any newspaper re-
ports we have ever read. l never thought
Republicanism meant such things for
ticket.
PURCHASE OF ARMS.
There IS positive information OF pur-
chases of arms by negroes. these having
begun long ago. A negro has been at
Norfolk, Richmond, and Baltimore 70
buy rifles and revolvers for use at Will
mington. Wilmington white men are in
some cases, sending their families out of
that city. A paper there says: They
are clearing the decks for action. They
are trying to avoid a race conflict, and
God grant IT may not come. But, If il
is forced on them, they will not falter."
The issue will be met as squarely, no
doubt, in a score of other eastern towns
and counties.
White supremacy and control OF the
Legislature being thus the great issues,
the congressional campaign is given Sc
cond place. Your correspondent asked
Republican State Chairman Holton his
view of the result OF the election. He
replied: "A solid anti-Democratic dele
cation will be elected" Popuist State
Chairman Thompson being absent the
same question was put to Secretary Aver,
who replied: I'm the First District,
Skinner; I'm the Third. Fowler: in the
Fourth, Jenkins; in the Fifth Adams
in the Sixth, Dockery; in the Eighth,
Linney, and III the Ninth Pearson will
be elected. / do not know as To the Sc
cond. AS to the Sixth, events which
have occurred, inspired by Democrats
are already sufficient 10 vitiate any GER
tificate which the Democratic candidate
can obtain. AS to the Seventh. l cannot
say who will win. 1t is a hard fight"
Democratic State Chairman simmons
says: I'VE will elect our candidates in
the First District (SmalD Fifth Qit-
Chin, Sixth Bellamy). Seventh QKluttz),
Ninth Crawford, with a fighting chance
in the Third (Thomas), Fourth (Atwater),

ROBSON At THE ACADEMY.
The Talented Comedian Makes a Hit
in The MeddIer.

An audience that equalled in beauty.
brilliancy, and size any of the season
heartily welcomed Stuart Robson and his
distinguished company of players in
Augustus Thomass three-act comedy,
THE Meddler," at the Academy of Music
last night. THE Meddler" is a short
comedy Of only little over two hours
duration, but in that seemingly short
while the comedian and his associates
find ample time 10 exploit the many mis-
haps that befall Francis Eli, the med
dler, who innocently causes his friends
many embarrassments, and nearly wrecks
the household of his most intimate friend.
Happily, everything ends nicely, and the
curtain falls on a satisfactory explana-
ton from the meddler.
Mr.. Robson, as Eli, the mischief
making artist, has fallen into a character
that trinity fits his peculiar voice and
gives him vent to the comical mobility of
his face. Next to Mr.. Robson in giving
success to the piece comes Miss Marie
Burroughs, a beautiful and charming ar
fist, who makes Of Mrs. Bancroft, a wo-
man that completely wins the admiration
of the audience. The remaining charac-
tiers of the play are given to sterling
players.
AS usual in a Robson production, the
play was admirably staged. and the sup
porting company was excellent.
Governor j. Hoge Tyler and family oc-
cupied one Of the lower boxes as the
guests Of Mr.. and Mrs. Robson.
"A Hired Girl" a musical comedy by
Charles f. Blaney, author OF "A Baggage
Check" "A Run on the Bank" and other
successes, will be the attraction at the
Academy OF Music tonight. II Is a satire
on the serVant-gfrl question and this
despised mental. as portrayed by Thomas
j. Ryan. succeeds in getting herself into
all manner of entanglements. making by
them a plot for the play. The special
music of the play was written by Harry
James. and in addition the latest special
ties and songs are introduced by Fanny
Fields. Edwina. Annie. and Charles
Checkers, Campbell and Beard, and nu-
merous other artists.

Eczema All Over Head and Face.
Two Doctors, No Benefit.

with Rapid Cure.

Twas troubled several years with cutaneous
diseases which developed into chronic Ec-
zema, which spread all over my head, and
down on my face. took medical treatment
from two doctors and received but little re-
lief. Then tried several lotions, etc, which
VIC had in the store, but only received little
relief from them. AT times, the dreadful
itching became almost intolerable. When

almost distracted me. ! was advised to try
CuTIcURA REMEDIES and did so, and found
them all that is claimed for them. The Ecze-
ma rapidly disappeared, and am well, with
no trace of any cutaneous disease. shall
