after many years of struggle is about
to be completed. This is a very credita-
bic brick edifice of Gothic design, and
when completed will have cost some $10,-
GOO
There have been two or three small
church buildings erected in other sections
of the city. mt the Pilot mills, in the
eastern section of the city. and out at
West Raleigh, at total cost of about
$4,000.
So Raleigh during these eighteen
months has spent and is spending more
than $4,000 in church buildings.
Its school interest is keeping ahead.
The whole State knows about the Bap-
list Female University, now approach
ing completion mt the corner of Eden
ton and Blount streets.
The accompanying cut shows that this
is one of the largest and handsomest
college buildings ever erected in the
State The plans were by Mr.. a. G..
Bauer. Raleigh's talented architect, and
both the exterior and the interior ar
rangements are among the best that this
advanced era Of architecture can pro-
duce.
This college, when completed will cost
in the neighborho0d of $4,000, and this
munificent sum, raised during the past
two years, mainly from the Baptist de-
nomination in North Carolina, is an ever
lasting memorial to their liberality and
regard for the higher education OF its
women Too much praise could hardly be
given to Rev. o. l.. Struggled the
agent of the college, through whose eff
forts the money has been raised.
Work on the new addition TO the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
has begun, under plans submittedtaoin
has begun. This Improvement will make
this already popular and splendid insti-
tuition better prepared to meet the de-
mands made upon it by its patrons all
over the State.
So Raleigh is spending over 5000 in
college buildings and improvements.
The city is spending now 100000 in
street improvements, and this feature
of the city's progress can be best eX
pressed in the words of Mr.. John G.
Drewry, the efficient and untiring
chairman of the street committee, at the
last meeting of the Board of Alder
men.
Alderman Drewry read the report of
the street committee and among other
things said.

Raleigh might be justly termed a

is hardly ever a time when there is
