APASTOR POUNDED.

Rev. r. II. Leavett, who has recently
come to Raleigh as pastor of West
Raleigh Baptist church, writes to the
North Carolina Baptist of a pleasant ex-
perience:
I'VE were just having family prayers
on Friday night last when our puppy
barked and we heard footsteps approach
ing our domicile. The noise increased
until we distinguished the familiar sound
of female voices backed by the basso of
some of the male gender. Then it dawn
ed on us-we were about to be pounded.
And pound us they did. They flowed
in. men. women and children. Baptists,
Methodists, Presbyterians, Moravians,
etc. They crowded the rooms and sat
on the floor. We had music and singing.
After spending a pleasant evening our
friends departed with our hearty thanks,
leaving behind them tangible tokens of
their love"

THE YATES DAM REMOVED.
The Recommendation of the City At

Hc instrumentation Vi tlle WY AZ
torney Carried Out
The dam in Yates pond was taken
down yesterday by the Raleigh Water
Company.
The people have been demanding
the abatement of this nuisance for
thirteen years. 1t was one Of the CON
ditions of granting the franchise that
the Water Company should be remoy-
ed. Yet for thirteen years it has been
permitted to stand as nuisance to
the health of the city.
The present Board of Aldermen are
entitled 10 the grateful thanks OF the
whole city for having the wisdom and
the nerve to secure the removal Of
that pond. Recently we have read the
elaborate and able opinion of Mr.. Per-
rim Busbee, city attorney. which secur-
ed the removal. 1t reviews the legal
rights and liabilities of the city of
Raleigh and Raleigh Water Company
in respect to the Little Yates mill
pond with clearness and ability that
would have done credit to the oldest
member of the Raleigh bar. The re-
commentator with which Mr.. Bus
bees opinion closed. to-wit: THAT
the board order the Water Company
to remove the dam and drain said
pond before May 10th under penalty
of suit being instituted to declare said
franchise forfeited" mas been carried
out voluntarily by the water company,
which chose to remove the dam with
out waiting to be ordered to do SO by
the board.

the Corporation Commissioners are
quite different from those required of
the Railroad Commissioners.
On this point the answer sets forth
that the Legislature Invested them
Corporation Commission with general
supervision of railroads, steamboat and
canal companies; express, telegraph and
telephone companies; banks, building
and loan associations and sleeping car
companies; and other duties and func-
tions enumerated in the Corporation
Commission Act: and afterwards the
General Assembly amended the act and
gave to. the commissioners jurisdiction
over the Homes for the Aged and In
firm"
This latter point however, is one of
law and not of fact. as are indeed all
points involved in the case except that
of the ratification of the bill repeating

There was some talk at the Senate
to-day about the possible defeat of the
army bill and the consequent necessity
of an extra session of Congress. Soma
tors Daniel and Martin, however, did
not credit the rumor. MIR. German
said he did not know whether there
would be an extra session or not, put
that the agreement on that bill was
that in 1901 the strength of the army
should not be greater than is was be-
fore the Spanish war, and that unless
that agreement should be complied
with, the bill would meet with strong
and long objection-how long ne could
not tell. The prevailing impression
both in the House and Senate is that
the agreement referred to will be pro-
vided for, and that extra session Will
not be necessary.
