Visit to Raleigh.

Goyernor-elect Il. +. Glenn was a
visitor to Raleigh Yesterday. 1t was a
flying visit and the genial gentleman
left in the afternoon.
Mr.. Glenn gave out nothing about
his appointments. This news he holds
till after his inauguration and he vii,
then spring 1t on the State.
He was here to look after some
matters connected with his inaugur-
alton. He was with Governor Ay-
cock during the day. and as there is
diptheria now in the executive mani
sion it was decided that no reception
would be held there. as had been at
first arranged.
In consultation during the day with
MI. w. w. Richards, cha rman of the
Chamber of Commerce Inauguration
Committee Mr.. Glenn left, the place
of the reception in the hands of the
committee. Three places are suggest
ed. these being the rotunda of the
Capitol, Metropolitan Hall and the
Academy OF Music. Mr.. Glenn favors
the rotunda of the Capitol. and il is
probable that this will be used. II
can be arranged most admirably.
The Inauguration Committee win
meet at five o'clock this afternoon at
the Citizens National Bank and the
committee on program is called t.
meet at the same time and place. The
meeting is important and all members
are requested TO be present.

Goldsboro when the men were killed
by striking against the Dark House"
bridge near Goldsboro last August.
when the troops were returning from
the encampment at Morehead City.
A military court in the matter placed
censure on the officers Of the regi-
ment.
Colonel Craig felt he was not to
blame and asked for special lnVes-
tigation. The court was ordered, this
consisting of Col. IT. III pain, of Colds
boro. inspector General; Col. Walker
Taylor. OF Wilmington, Paymaster-
General. and Col. r. II. Robertson, OF
Charlotte, in command OF the First
