she can not recover.

WILL REMAIN HERE.
The Imperial Tobacco Co. Will Be
Represented on This Market,

Represented ON This Market,
Mr.. Geo. G.. Prichard will repre-
sent the Imperial Tobacco Company
on this market again next season..
Ever since the burning Of their plant
in this city last winter there has been
ard would remain on this market.
The only obstacle in the way was
the securing of a building in which
to do business, and this obstacle was
in the way up to Friday after
noon, when the necessary amount of
capital for erecting such a building
was raised. Some days ago the pro-
p~rietors of the different tobacco ware
houses got together and proposed to
raise the money necessary to erect
such a building and equip it with
the proper machinery. Mr.. w. E.
Borden, cashier of the Bank of
Wayne, put himself at the head of
Tile HlONOIllcIU, anu IIIudy dIuGI-
noon succeeded in raising $1,000 by
subscription from both the tobacco
men and business men for the cree
ton and equipment oil the building.
The investment will pay about 10
per cent, as MI. Prichard offers to
pay $500 rent per annum The
machinery will be of the most mod
ern type. The building will be To-
Gated on the vacant lot north of the
A. & N. G. Railroad freight depot.
The Imperial Tobacco Company is
a close competitor of the. American
Tobacco Company. and for this e a
son it was thought to be desirable to
retain Mr.. Prichard on this market.
Besides this, he has a number of per-
sonal friends here, who, as well as
the patrons of this market, would re-
greet to see him leave. Now that it
is an assured fact that he will remain
mere, it is safe to say that the Golde-
boro tobacco market will be up to
it's usual standard this fall, and will
maintain its much envied reputation
for paying the highest market price
for the ssgolden leaf.o

CITY HALL AND MARKET
From Fridays Daily Argus.

From Fridays Daily Argus.
The Board of Aldermen met last
night and finally decided upon the
plans and specifications for a new
city hall and market. The Board &C
cepted the plans submitted by w.
P. Rose and requested that he COM
plete the specifications for building
material as early as possible in order
that the Board may let the contract
for the erection of the building as
early as possible.
The plans of the city hall which
were accepted last might call for a
building with two stories and a base
ment. The guardhouse, or the lock-
up, will be in the basement, where
the heating apparatus, fuel rooms,
and electric lights and water works
and storage Don will also be locat-
ed. On the first floor will be the
court room and the offices of the city
clerk, city tax collector, police head
quarters, and the Office of the. mayor
and the board of public works, with
a hallway twelve feet wide running
through the entire length of the
building. On the front of the build
ing will be a portico supported by
high gothic columns. On the second
floor will be found the committee
rooms and the city hall, which will
have a seating capacity of six hun
dred. A fire bell tower and town
clock will be the ornaments for the
building.
Some time ago the Board of Al
! dermen adopted a resolution to the
! effect that the city hall and market
be erected in separate localities. Last
night that resolution was rescinded
and it was decided to erect the mar
| ket house in the real of the city hall
building. There will be an alley
way of 35 feet on either side of the
city hall for vehicles and a walk
way for pedestrians. The market
will be very nearly in the centre of
| the whole block and will be APP
preached by al1ey-ways from Ashe
street, John street and Mulberry
street, in addition to the two from
East Centre street, mentioned above.
Int was originally intended to put up
the buildings for $15, 900, but the
board are determined to erect nice
buildings which will be an ornament
to the city, even If the amount should
exceed that named above.

WILKINS--GRANT.

There is always a peculiar charm
about a home wedding-the sweet
trysting place of love, where the old,
old story yet ever new, had its first
whispering and nowitsconsummation
in the saeramental linking together
for aye of tttwo souls with but a sin
gle thought two hearts that beat as
one" Sc was it Thursday evening
at s o'clock, in the beautiful home
of Maj. and Mrs. H.. L. Grant, 307
William street, in this city, when
their youngest daughter, Miss Minnie
Elliott Grant, and Mr.. Clarence Ed
win Wilkins, of Manning, S. c.,
stood together before the officiating
minister, Rev. G. A. jenkins, and
plighted their troth each to the 9TH
er, in the presence of the immediate
families and a small circle Of near
relatives and intimate friends.
The lovely home was a~rtistically
decorated in ferns, palms and roses,
and Memberships Wedding March
was rendered by Miss Mabel Borden,
and, during the ceremony, as a soft
refrain, with sweetly sympathetic
effect, go, Promise Me-"
The groom entered with his best
man and brother, Rev. Walter Will
kins, of Clyde, N. c.; and the maid
of honor, Miss Annie Norwood, of
Greenville, S. c., wearing white or
candle and carrying pink roses, en-
tered with Mr.. Louis IN. Grant,
brother of the bride. Then came the
bride with her father, and gowned
in rich rose silk, with a circlet of
pearls, the gift of the groom. She
carried a shower bouquet of white
carnations, and was lovely, indeed,
to behold in this sweet coronation
ceremony of her life.
The bridal presents were many
and beautiful, and of rare value, and
evidenced the cordial popularity of
the young couple with their many
friends.
They left on the 9:37 train for their
future home in Manning, taking
with them the abiding good wishes
of our entire community, where the
fair young bride is held in highest
esteem by her wide circle of admir-
ing friends, and where her ever
willing aid will be greatly missed in
all church work and needy charities.
Those from a distance in attend
ance on the happy event we're: Mrs.

weeks, on a visit to her parents.

WE GO FORWARD.
Goldsboro's Manufacturing Enter
prises Successful,

All the industrial enterprises CT
GOldsbOrO + successful as a rule. In
fact the impression seems to prevail
among the outside business world
that fan article is made in Colds
boro it is all right. This fact accounts
for the large number of manufacture
ing plants that have the word Colds
boro prefixed to their names. The
reputation Of the town sells the
goods and the new enterprises that
start up from time to time get the
benefit of this reputation and all try
to sustain it. How we'll they succeed
is shown by the continued demand
for Goldsboro's manufactured pro-
ducts. These statements are not the
vain imaginings that are prompted
by enthusiastic city pride, but are
facts gathered from unprecedented
observation and are borne out by ac-
tual occurrence every day.
One of the many instances corrob-
orative of the above assertions is the
fact hat the Borden Cotton Mill.
which has only been in operation
about eighteen months, has found it
necessary to increase the capacity of
the mill, and in order to do this adj
ditions will have to be made to the
present large structure. The con-
tract has been let for the erection of
a ffty-foot addition to the front of
the building. This will bring the
building within twelve inches of the
railroad bounds and make the mill
n of the largest, asst is already one
of the best equipped cotton mills in
the State.

THE SUMMONS.

[The beautiful poem below vas
written by the late Miss Mary Eliza
Scott, of NeWbern, whose death oc-
CURED there last Friday evening,
May 9, aged 81 years. These lines
were written the day she had a stroke
of paralysis, when she was 93 years
old, and in sending them afterwards
to a relative in this city she wrote:
would soon be home.o But she
was spared for eight yearslonger, and
as they measured their days and
weeks and months along, and she
walked them '9thoughtful ON the
silent, solemn shore of that vast
ocean" she has at length explored,
she could say with Father Ryan,
who once '.nearly died-almost
touched the Door that swings be-
tween Forever and No-more," yet
lived to write:
&C me! Death! but I am fearless,
I shrink not from your rowp.-
The eyes you close are fearless
Haste? strike this frail form down.
Strike quick! Why dost thou tarry?
or time, why such a loss7
Dost fear the sign / carry?
Ills but a simple Gross.
Thou wilt not strike2-then hear me-
Come! strike in any hour

Nor finch before thy power.

And my wasted lips shall sing:-
Dread Death!-I am the Victor

WHERE IT PAYS BEST.

Mahin's Magazine: One Of. the
large advertisers on State street as
sured me weekday morning paper ad-
vertising has paid him, and that
he uses it only occasionally in the
best morning paper, when he has a
very special sale. His firm probably
spends about $4,000 annually in ev-
enlDg newspaper advertising. Peo-
pie have So little time to devote to
papers in the morning that advertis-
ing to be of any value should be of the
bold striking kind, and not given up
to arguments or prices.
I believe that general advertisers
who use the morning papers with such
advertising do so to supplement the
work done and impressions made in
the evening papers.

would be no building by the Burling-

copied as meaning that much as GER

humaH opponent after human oppon-
ent, and has defied the mill wheel.
There is no scheme Of new course
too devious for the Big Muddy to in
vestigate, IL by that means it may
escape the monotony of the white
man. The river was happy enough
when it had but the Indian to contend
with. But when the white man tried
to curb it with champ and bit the
river sullenly refused. Thou hast
conquered, oh muddy Missouri.
There is something pathetic in this
abandoning of a large river, some
thing curious in this acknowledgment
of man that a river dispute his will,
and he can do nothing with it. OF
course, We know that the govern
ment will announce that it has no use
for such a stream, that there%is no
commerce along it's banks which can
nat be better carried by rail, and that,
in short, the river may dry up and
disapper for all it cares. But the
river knows better, and we know bet
Ter. There r limits to civilization,
The Big Muddy is one.
