Wayne's New Jail---Cotton Sales.
Especial to News and observer.)


Goldsboro, n. c., Sept. 9.--Wayne coun-
tvs new jail is one of the most substan-
tial structures Of the kind in the State.
It has been erected with a view to com
fort for the prisoners as well as affordng
handsome and commodious quarters for
the sheriff and the jailer. The building
is provided with electric lights, water
and ample sanitary plumbing.
The social session of the Elks last night
at their handsome club rooms, which IN
aUgurates a series of such social functions
for the season, was a very delightful
event, and was favored by the presence
of many of Goldsboro's young ladies.
A number of merchants as well as a
great many other people are indignant
at the action of the board of aldermen
in refusing to sprinkle the streets which,
on account of the character of steet paw
ing that Goldsboro has is a necessity IN
dry weather. The water now belongs to tha
city and there is no reasonable excuse
why the streets should not be sprinkled.
Cotton is coming in as fast as the farm
ers can get it ready for market. There
were several bales on this market today.
and the ruling price was II cents. To-
bacco has been selling this week for at
least one cent more in the pound on this
market. The receipts have been heavier
than at any time since the market open
ed on the first of August.

Rocky Mount, n. c., Sept. 9.-Mr. d.
Abram the Oldest merchant in the town,
closed his doors this morning, having filed
petition in voluntary bankruptcy. His
liabilities are estimated at about $4,000
and assets $4,000. Mr. Abram is highly
respected citizen and his friends hope that

We understand that Rocky Mount will
soon have a new industry in plant to
manufacture building block from sand
and cement. 1t is claimed by the promot-
ers of the enterprise that these blocks are
superior to brick, and that the cost will
be just as cheap.
Mr.. Thos kirkwood died yesterday
morning at the Atlantic Coast Line hos
pital in this place, where he had been for
treatment for several months. His re-

him.
The Rocky Mount graded school will

greatly enlarged to accommodate the large
