ANOTHER FILIBUSTER.
An Expedition Said to be Bound
for Cuba

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The Evening
World" says Another filibustering ex-
pedition to the Cuban insurgents is be-
lieved to have got away from the Long
Island coast, near Montauk Point, Mon
day, and to have carried the members
of the expedition that was shipwrecked
on the Tillie a couple Of weeks ago. The
arms and ammunition for this last ex-
pedition are said to have been carried
from this city by the steam lighter
Agnes, alleged to be owned by McAllis-
ter brothers, who owned the Tillie.
The Agnes left on Saturday night,
putting into Bridgeport on Sunday
morning. On Sunday afternoon, while
she was being watched by detectives,
she suddenly steamed out into the
sound. She had a thirty-foot naphtha
launch in tow, and her officers gave out
that they were bound for Newport. On
Monday morning, however the Agnes
put into New London again, sailing at
nightfall, heading in the direction of
Montauk.
The vessel that the Agnes is reported
to have met on Sunday night is not
known, although the name is men
toned of a steam yacht owned by q
Baltimore millionaire, which came here
from New London a few weeks ago
with an unusual quantity of arms on
board. These, it was said by her Off
GERS. were to be used in repelling possi-
BILE pirates in the Mediterranean The
detectives here suspected filibustering
intentions, and kept a close watch on
her. She disappeared on Sunday, and
it is believed that she met the Agnes off
the Long Island coast

and is paralyzed in his right arm. He
suggests that both use left arms. The
feeling between the men was engender-

Moore was recently suggested as a

the challenge. Breckenridge is in

THE STATE FAIR.
Time of Holding 1t Is Drawing Near
Efforts to Make it Great Success.

The following is taken from the

This great occasion is but few

such success as the best interests
of the State, social and material and
industrial will justify. Upon this
subject we take the liberty of using

our agricultural interests have not.
Much depends in North Carolina
upon the success of the farmers,

A Magnificent Publication Upon the
South.

The wonderful progress which the
South has been making in all lines of in
dustral, commercial and intelectu al de-
velopment has been most tittingly set
forth in a magnificent volume, which,
after months of careful preparation, has
just been issued by the Southern Rail-
way.
This book, the title of which, "The En-
pire of the South" conveys an idea of
it's character, is beyond question one of
the most comprehensive and at the same
time artistic publica tons ever issued
from the press. 1t contains nearly two
hundred active pages, over four hundred
exquisitely printed illustrations, and
makes a presentation of Southern in
terests in all lines of human activity,
which for thoroughness of treatment
has never been approached.
The opening chapter of the book under
the caption of "The South, Yesterday,
To-day and Tomorrow" discusses in a
broad and forcible manner the present
and future of the Southern States, treat
ing at considerable length the various
interests, such as agriculture, cotton,
tobacco, iron, coal, resorts, climate, etc.
Following this are chapters devoted to
each of the States South of the Ohio and
Potomac, and east of the Mississippi
rivers.
These give brief, interesting sketch of
the early history of each State, and then
touch upon all it's important activities,
showing the progress being made not
only by the State itself, but by the lead
ing cities.
The author of the work, Mr. Frank
Presbrey, is a close student OF Southern
progress, and in the collectionand prepa-
ration OF the immense amount of impor-
tant information given in the book, has
had the co-operrtion of the officials OF
the Southern Railway. The distribution
OF this magnificent volume will do an
incalculable amount of practical good in
calling the attention of the world to the
South, and the Southern Railway has
demonstrated its faith in the future of
that section by the expenditure of the
many thousands of dollars which this
great work must have cost. Those who
are fortunate enough to receive a copy
of this edition de luxe, which is sent with
the compliments of the company, will
prize it as a most valuable addition to
their library.

FORT BAGLEY.
Memory of the Young North Carolin-
ian is Honored in philadelphia.

From the Germantown (Philadel-
phia) Independent Gazette, of last
week, we make the following ex-
tract:
IAN earthwork known as Fort
Bagley, situated on East Chelton
avenue, near Stenton avenue, was
dedicated on Tuesday evening, with
appropriate ceremonies and enthus-
iasm. OF. all the mimic Notifications
erected so far in this section, this is
one of the most realistic, being a
perfect reproduction of section OF
breastwork such as was often thrown
up in few hours by the Union or
Confederate forces during the Civil
War, and over the possession OF
when many bloody contests were
foucht. The name Of
BaSlev was enthusiastically cheered,
when it was asserted that the blood
of that noble young Southern patriot,
shed in defense of the Stars and
Stripes, had done more toward heal
inc the differences and soothing the
bitter feelings between the North
and the South than had been accom-
plished by all combined influences in
more than thirty years. There was
singing of patriotic airs, music, fire
works and the raising of the flag by
three little girls, dressed in the ma
tiOnal colors."
