PROPOSITION TO BUY WATER PLANT.
Mayor Fay Submits Proposition from
Company to Council tuesday Evening.

Company to Council tuesday Evening.
At meeting of the. city council
some time ago Mayor Fay was ap-
pointed as a committee of one to
confer with the Virginia Light e
Water company with view to the
purchase of the franchise and plant
of that concern by the city. At the
regular meeting of the council on
Tuesday evening Mr.. Fay submit
ted his report, it being a PROPOSE
ton from Manager Griggs for the
transfer of the plant to the city for
the sum of $4,000, payable in s per
cent bonds.
The proposition was discussed
and will again be brought up for
further consideration and action at
an adjourned meeting of the coun-
Gil to be held on Tuesday evening
next, at which time if the council
looks with favor upon the project
arrangements will be made for the
submission OF the question OF pur-
chase to the voters of the city at a
special election.
Thequestion Of paving was also
brought up at the meeting, al.
though not discussed at length. 1t
is anticipated that action in this
direction will be taken by the pres.
ent administration, and we believe
that any action resulting in the ac-
complishment of this improvement
will meet with the hearty approval
of the taxpayers of the city.
E. S. Radcliffe, architect on the
new city hall building, submitted
plans and specifications for the
furnishing of the city hall, includ-
ing the council chamber, court
room and clerks Office. The plans
met with the approval of the coun-
Gil and the improvement to the
handsome new building will be
made at an estimated expense of
about $4,000.

Here's The Explanation That Ought
to Have Been Made Sooner.

ASheVille GaZette-NeWS.
We are now i'm position to explain
the whole matter, for the benefit of
those supersensitiVe members of the
fourth estate" At the time the edi-
tors held their meeting in Ashevllle 1t
had rained almost every day for weeks
from Philadelphia to Jacksonville,
and Asheville had not escaped the
daily showers. The day the editors
went Biltmore, in response to Mr..
Nanderbilts invitation, it looked very
much like rain during the forenoon,
and when the young men in charge of
the refreshments took a glance over
head they came to the conclusion that
the tables had better be placed un-
der shelter. When Mr.. Vanderbilt
came down to the barns he was as
much surprised as anybody to find the
people eating there. as he had plan
ned a lawn party. He asked for an
explanation, and the threatening
weather was given as a reason for the
change in plans. In short, the idea
of placing the tables in the barn did
not originate with Mr.. Vanderbilt.

Soap, Ointment and Pills
the Worlds Greatest
Skin Cures.
PRICE The SET ST..
Complete Treatment for Every
HumOur, from PimpleS
TO SCrOfuIa.

The agonizing itching and burning
of the skin, as in eczema the frightful
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of
hair and crusting of the scalp, as in
SCALED head ; the facial Disagreement,
as in pimples and ringworm; the
awful suffering of infants and the
anxiety of WORKOUT parents, as in
milk crust, letter, and salt rheum, all
demand a remedy of almost super
human virtues to successfully cope
with them. That Cuticura Soap, Oint-
ment, and Pills are such stands proven
beyond all doubt. No statement is
made regarding them that is not justl-
fed by the strongest evidence. The
purity and sweetness, the power to
afford immediate relief, the certainty
of speedy and permanent cure, the alb
solute safety and great economy, have
made them the standard skin cures
and humour remedies of the civilized
world.
The grandest testimonial that can
be offered the Cuticura remedies is
their worldwide sale, due to the per-
sona1 recommendation of those who
have used them. From small begin
ming in the simplest form, against
prejudice and opposition, against
monied hosts, countless rivals, and
trade Indifference, Cuticura remedies
have become the greatest curatives of
their time, and, in fact, of all time,
for nowhere in the history of medicine
is to be found another approaching
them in popularity and sale. In every
cline and with every people they have
met with the same reception. The
confines of the earth are the only
limits to their growth. They have
conquered the world.

The Chamber of Commerce has is
sued an address to the public spirited
citizens of Raleigh, through its special
reorganization committee, which
planned the changes in the chamber
that will be voted upon at the next
regular meeting, the second Tuesday
in August. The committee desires to
have not less than two hundred repre-
sentative citizens business and profess
sional men to begin the new cham

The address is as follows:
ITO the philosophical Citizens of Raj
eigh township:
THE undersigned have been ap-
pointed by the Raleigh Chamber of
Commerce and Industry a committee
to solicit members under the new plan
of organization. We need the united
efforts of not less than two hundred of
our best citizens to organize and lead
the progressive movements which are
already taking shape among our peO-
pie
Feeling our inability to see person
ally all whom we would like to have
connect themselves with this organi-
zation, and not wishing to slight any
who should become members, we
triotic and philosophical citizens of
Raleigh township to join with us in
our effort to place our capital city
abreast with the demands OF the times,
and in line with the most progressive
towns and cities of the South. In
union there is strength. We need your
name, your influence, your counsel and
your presence. We have every ele-
ment to make this community the
foremost in the State. We ought to

perity. and the people of the State
have the right to expect it of us. Let
us organize. Let us reOrganize and
place our leaders of business and in
dustry al the front. Raleigh'S oppOr-
tunity is close upon us. An effective
working organization now may be
made of inCalculable value to our city.
Even with the small membership
and without the assistance of many
who should be leaders, the Chamber
of Commerce has for the past ten
years aided in effecting many improve
ments and public utilities for the city
and community. Among them we
might mention:
The beautityirg and adornment of
the city and Improvement of the
streets and sidewalks;
'Thc erection of cotton factories,
knitting mills and other industries.
Reduction of fire insurance and
telephone rates and organizing new
