C, January 6. At the executive office this morning when the question was asked, "Where Js Governor Russell?" Private Secretary Alexander replied, "At Washington City. He left here yesterday with Su perintendent Mewboorne, from the John eion street station." The private secre tary said he did not say yesterday that the governor had gone to the peniten tiary farms, but that he had gone off with Mewboorne. His not leaving from the Union station was singular. Tho railway commission la called to meet tomorrow. No one knows what may come up. Senator Hurler's paper says today that the work of the new railway commissioners so far is prepara tory to a reduction of passenger and freight rates, He makes a. cut at Com missioner Abbott (anti-Russell republi can), by saying two of the commission ers cannot be bought. The Capital Club here re-elects Dr. James JIcKee president. Julian Timber lake is the new secretary. There are 1X members. Rev. J. O. Guthrie, who was first sent to Favettevllle to be pastor of the Meth odist church, but later was sent to War renton, has left for the "latter place. Architects in this state can compete for the $.7).000 in prizes for the best de signs for the buildings of the university of California. The secretary of state has the specifications. Judge Timberlake has, as expected, jrranted an order restraining the collec tion of interest or principal of the Wilkes -ounty bonds issued in aid of the North western North Carolina railroad, until Judge Starbuck hears that matter. There must be a good deal of stir in Wilkes. It is said by an anti-Southern railway pa per that that system threatens to tear up the road between Elkin and North "Wilkesboro in case the bonds are de clared invalid. There are persons who ...r.fhot thA nss.-iiilti UDon the validity of bonds issued to the Yadkin railway, the Spartanburg and Asheville and the Northwestern are really cuts at the Southern railway, which owns all these lines Tho Wilkes people expect to get their matter settled against the road by The middle of Marci. There is talk of bringing suit to test the validity of the bonds issued the Durham and Northern xoad, which the Seaboard Air Line owns. The public school committee of this city has been on an anti-cigarette cru- baSenator Butler in his paper says edi torially: "The only danger while such a man as . RUsseM is governor and with such a non-partisan supreme court on the bench is from corporation federal courts and their injustices." Much plowing is being done in this section. Farmers say they must put in cotton: that if they can only get G cents for it they can "make buckle and tongue meet." , .Bill Morgan, a white man, aged years, who has served two terms in the penitentiary here, is-in jail again, for murder. He says he expects to be hang ed, but fears lynching. Speaker Ambrose Hileman, of the lower house, was married today in Cabarrus. He says he expected to be married here in the house of representatives, but did not come because he feared smallpox on the trains. At Salisbury today Governor Russeh s attorneys made their reply in the North Carolina railway lease matter. The children Ct Sonly Ryan, the wife murderer, who was hanged at Greens boio, will be sent to the orphan asylum sit Oxford. The Caucasian cills on the railway commission to regulate and reduce tele phone rates and ridicules the attorney general foi his opinion that the commis tden hps no authority to regulate tele phone rates.

The executive committee of the Ox ' ford Orphan Asylum met at Durham last night. It found that the receipts last year were $21,000, and that all were ex pended. Two hu.idred and eleven chil dren were erred for, and arrangements are made to receive Sixteen more. Steps were taken to build four cottages for Kirls, each to accommodate thirty. Four cottages for boys are completed and oc cupied. Arrangements were also made to put an edito- in charge of the orphanage paper. The grand lodge of Masons meets at the orphanage next Tuesday, in an nual communication. So far the promoters of the proposed state textile school have had over fifty letters from cotton mill owners, all of -whom express their interest in the plan. The finance committee of the Agricul tural and Mechanical college here has adjourned. It found the accounts of E. G. Butler, the new tursar, in a tangle. J. W. Hardin, the chairman, says But ler has made an error by mixing the ac. counts of the half dozen or more depart ments: that there is no shortage, but that there is only $3.22 difference in tho total of receipts and isbursements. Har din says he will quickly find the error in the balances. During December the mean tempera ture here was 44 degrees: exactly the average; the highest 68, the lowest 21; rainfall 2.56 inches, which is almost the average. Last year's deficiency in rain fall was 17 inches. R. W. Minor is appointed by Judge Purnell United States commissioner at "Washington. N. C. A son of Dr. J. J. Mott. who has been an under officer at the penitentiary, but who was lately dropped, is now on duty sis guard at the railway commission of fice. Senator Sharp?, of Iredell, the new assistant clerk, was asked why guards were put on day and night. He replied: "I sUDpose because Major Wilson was here Monday, and because Otho Wilson came into the office. He came as a citi zen. Major Wilson has not been here. He Is not coming. He has too much sense. Of all the ridiculous things Gov ernor Russell has done, this placing of guards at the railway commission office takes the Jead. The ground around the basement of the executive mansion is to be cut away, so as to ventilate and drain the basement, which it not now used. It is asserted that the old railway com missioners will contend before the United States supreme court that the writ of er ror, or appeal to the United States su preme court, was granted before the or der of the court was given the sheriff to place the new commissioners in pos session. Carthage, one of the prettiest places in the state, is to be a winter resort. Tht new hotel, built by a Nebraska man, is nearly completed. The slaughter of partridges during the past three months has been great. The sales are large. Many birds are secretly shipped out of the state. When a man Is suffering -with, an aching head, a sluggish body, when his muscles are lax and lazy, his brain dull, and his stomach disdaining food, lie will, if wise, heed these warnings and resort to the right remedy, before it is too late "Parker's Sarsaparilla" the "King of Blood Purifiers" makes the appetite keen and hearty invigo rates the liver purifies the blood and fills it with the life-giving elements of The 'food.

Your correspondent this afternoon in terviewed Chairman Caldwell, of the rail way commission, regarding its purposes concerning reduction of freight and pas senger rates. Caldwell said: "I have said nothing to Senator Butler about my plans. "We may take up the rate ques tion. I have no views yet as to it. Noth ing is as yet contemplated regarding rate reduction. I don't know when it may turn up, if ever." When asked what he thought of Governor Russell's plan of guarding the railway commission office, he aaid he saw no earthly rea son for it; that neither of the Wilsons were trying or would try to go rn.

The defense did not deny the obtaining of the policy, but con'ended that the Fai son woman was not in good health when the policy was issued, and proved by witnesses that such being the case the insurance contract was violated, and consequently Mr. Hanna, who acted un der orders, had a right to recall the pol icy upon payment to the Faison woman of the premiums which she had paid in. This the defense claimed had been done and introduced in support of their posi tion an alleged receipt from the Faison woman's mother, Alice Faison, showing that she had received back the premiums paid in on the policy.
