Bishop ". v. Duncan. Dead.

News was received in this city
Monday of the death of Bishop
w. w. Duncan, of Spartanburg,
s. C. Bishop Duncan was well
known in Durham, having visit
ed Trinity College on several oc-
casions and having been the
principal speaker on commence
ment occasion.
For several days press dis
patches have contained the in
formation that he could not live
long, and the news of his death
was no surprise to his many
friends. The passing of Bishop
Duncan marks the close of a life
of 50 years in which were many
of the graces of nobility.
DR.. Kilgo, who was returning
from New York. received the
message and went on to Spartan
burg to attend the funeral.

County Commissioners In Session.

The regular monthly meeting
of the county commissioners
convened Monday for the con-
sideration of matters pertain
ing to the best interest of the
county. Allowing of accounts
and routine matters consumed
most of the day Monday.
The only thing coming before
them that created any special
interest was the changing of the
White Cross road so that it will
pass through West Durham. 1t is
claimed that if the road is
changed as proposed the cost of
building..will be considerably less
and more serviceable. Only four
of the commissioners were pres.
ent at Mondays session and the
matter was deferred until to
day.

Veterans In Session.

Old Veterans of Durham met
at the court house last Saturday
afternoon to make arrangements
about a state reunion and find
out how many contemplate at
tending the reunion at Birming-
ham. 1t is quite certain that
Durham will be well represented
at both meetings.
Gen. J. S. Carr attended the
meeting Saturday and addressed
the old vets on the subject of the
candidacy of Hon. Ashley Horne
for governor. In his speech
General Carr came out fiat-foot'
ed for Mr.. Horne and asked al
old soldiers to do all in their pow
er for his choice. ~~.

Executive Committee to Meet.

A call has been sent out for a
meeting of the state executive
committee of the Democratic
party. The meeting will be held
in Raleigh on the 11th of March
for the purpose of calling a state
convention. The time, date and
place will be selected.
The convention promises to be
one of the most interesting gath
erings held in the Old North
State for many years. The war
will be between what is known
as the radical element and the
conservative element of the par
ty, and it is understood that they
are well divided.

Robbery al University.

Sunday night the depot at
University Station was broken
into and robbed. At last ac-
counts no trace of the robbers
had been obtained and the search
for a clue has been in vain to the
present time.
The entrance to the station
was effected by prizing open a
window. There is no night man
on at the station AMI as the work
was done after the midnight hour
the perpetrators had a clear field
for ttheir deed. Some money
and tickets and samples from g
trunk .in the station was
all that could be charged up tc
them. Everything in the build
ing was scattered as if the rob
bers were in a great hurry.
The store of Mr.. Craig neal
by was said to have been robbed
also, only merchandise wa:
! taken.
