The pe- tition was signed by about 1,000 prom- in all sections of the state. Bills and resclutions were introduced as follows : Sharpe, to put Nash county in the Eastern criminal circuit: also the Edge. combe county road law. The latter provides that no persons living in town shal pay road tax, .ut be taxed for the improvement of streets in the corporate limits, Moye opposed the bill, saying he had been informed by a citizen of Edge- combe that only one person in the county wanted the bill, te wit: Lee Person, senator from the county and promocer of the bill. #Alexunder oppesed the passage of the bi}, saying his county (Mecklen- burg had the best roads et any county in the state, and they were improved by taxation ; that he would vote against any measure opposing good roads, Parker said the bill was so manifest— ly unjust that he would have to oppose. its passage. The bill failed to pass—ayes, 1; noes, 32. The bill passed to authorize Edge- combe county to levy a special tax. The bill was taken up to add Cum- berland gounty to the Eastern crimizal circuit. Moye did not favor the bill because it gave the governor the right to ap- poiat the judge. He thought the peo- ple should have a voice in the matter, but as he was infermed it was a ficht between two lawyers, he would there- fore, tavor the republican party. On motion of Scales the bill was re- ferred. } The bil to prevent fishing with an- chors, drift or gill nets in Alvemazle sound and rivers emptying therein also pasted, as did ths bill to incorporate the Wellineton ana Powellville rail- ruad. a By consent, Person was allowed to introduce a bill to incorporate Pigford sanitarium tor treatment of negro con- sumptives, HOUSE.

Terrible Experience of a Man on & : Traia, In a Pullman car on the southbound Missouri Pacific limited Sunday night were two passengers, who attracted sympathetic attention, The wowan was strikingly beautiful, while her companion might have been either 30 or 60 years old. Sharp lines disfigured his otherwise attractive features, and there was a quick, nervous movement of the head and hands that suggested palsy.
