Gold Mining in Buffalo.

the contract was given to another con-
tractor at price so per cent higher
than the first bid. But there was one
"graft' method used that is rather
unique. The chief Of police had a gold
mine. Literally gold mine. Its exist
ence was discovered in this way: Sa-

The Receivership Suits to be Withdrawn.

The matter of the receivership
case of Culyer ct al VS.. the Atlantic

signed an agreement and the appeal
to the Circuit Court will be with
drawn. The costs, amounting to
$4OO or $500, will be paid by the At

The Board of Managers of the
North Carolina Reunion at Greens
boro have decided to postpone the
second Reunion of Nonresident Ma
tive North Carolinians until 1905.
The chief reason for taking this step
is that this is a political year, which
would prevent the attendance Of
many prominent men who would 9th
erwise be glad to attend.
Twenty-three of the thirty-two
seniors who rebelled against the rules
and left the A. & M. College have

the faculty decline to receive. The
class now numbers thirty-one. The
reinstated cadets have the same of
fees of trust and honor they held
before. The affair has terminated
in the most desirable manner posi-
bic and the effect ON the discipline
of the college is very marked.

doubt. Dozens of colored women

to work, or if they are young they
