lasS AT THE GRAND Irwin's canine and pony exhibition, given at the Grand (house last evening, wen pleased the small number who attended. Romeo, the pony, was a credit to hia kind. Whether or not he oould read figures or distinguish colors, he usually obeyed correctly his instructions when ordered to select a particular number or piece of cloth. 'Mr. Irwin's fine little troupe of dogs proved a success, and the audience applauded the clever tricks, which Included rope walking and waltzing.

"Snowball" is appropriately named, being a beautiful little white woolly creature, and was easily the star. A matinee was given today and the canine exhibition will again be tht attraction at Che Grand this evening. That the perennial style of amusement known as minstrels is still popular with the masses Is shown by the big business being done by Ritfhards Pringle's Georgias in union with Rusoo Holland's operatic minstrels, headed by the noted colored comedian, Billy Kereands, one of the greatest exponents of genuine negro minstrelsy. They will appear at the Grand next Wednesday evening. What is said to be one of the best popular-priced attractions is the Daniel A.

Kelly company, which comes here next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, The attraction for Thursday evening will be "The Outcasts of a Great City," a melodrama of thrilling interest.

Shortly after the negro had left, George Lang-ford, a farmer who lives near Weavr-ville entered the market with th Information that th cow Mr. Starnes had purchased, belonged to him. Officrs are in search, of the missing negro. "Ti-ump" is the name of the canine mascot of the fire department. "Trump" is Maj.

McKissiek's dog, but has formed an attachment for the nre fighters and sjvends his time around the truck house. He is a black-and-white fox terrier, and his lower jaw is so prominent that he is always showing a glittering row of teeth. This gives him a look of fierceness that belies his nature. When the firebell taps "Trump" is quick to spring to his place on the truck and apparently enjoys t'he run keenly. This story is told by the Salisbury World: "Wallace's circus did not show in Hickory Wednesday.

The failure was due to the thirst of its various members and its subsequent satisfaction. The circus exhibited in Morganton Tuesday and wau billed for Hickory Wednesday. When they got through with the performance at Morganton and started to t'he depot they were mired up. enable to extricate themselves immediately from this uncomfortable plight several employes betook themselves to red eye for diversion and as a consequence the 5000 who had assembled at Hickory to see this circus were sorely disappointed."

AT THE REGULAR WEEKLY MEETING. Th New "Apron" on the Dam Causes Objection A Re ported Unsafe Extension of Water Mains Asked. At the meeting of the Aldermen last evening Vice-Mayor Jones presided, and ail the Aldermen except Mr. Burnett were present. City Engineer Lee reported that the brick stable in rear of the Swannanoii hotel is in dangerous condition, the walls being held up only by wooden props.

He recommended that the walls be torn down. The case was referred to a special committee composed of Aldermen Hill and Scott. Through Dr. M. H.

Fletcher, Mrs. Ohunn made -complaint that her property on Grove street had been damaged When the street had been widened. Referred to the street committee. W. R.

Whit son, made objection to the addition a 12-inch "apron" on the dam of the city pumping station. Some years ago there was litigation against the city by Dr. Geo. W. Whit-son, because of buck-water from the dam, and a compromise was finally effected, Dr.

hit son waiving claim to damages, and the tacit agreement was that t'he city would it raise the dam. Chairman Scott of the water and sewer committee said the height hart been increased aibout a foot, in order to get a better head of water during the extremely dry weather. It had saved the city in this way about a tun of coal a day at the pump house. The matter was sent to the water and sewer committee. Property owners on Hazzanl street petitioned for an extension of the water main a distance of 300 yards.

Referred to water and sewer nnnittee. PORTERS AND HACKMEN. Chief of Police James reported an ordinance regulating the porters and hackmen at the passenger station, but after discussion it was decided to send tho matter to City Attorney Craig for fuiih 'r conference with the railroad authorities. The Board would prefer to have the railroad company prepare some place where the porters may deliver and receive baggage without violating the regulations of the mpany's yards. The printing of the nenv City Code was referred to the finance committee and city attorney, who will ask for bids.

Walter S. Cushman and Capt. H. R. Kins suggeste-d an ordinance providing that license to hackmen and draymen sh- ruld bo issued with the reservation that if the licensees should allow their horses to stand under the cheek-rein for 30 minutes, the license should be revoked.

As the ordinance proposed had not been brjught up from his office by City Attorney Craig, no action was taken. Mr. Cushman asked that the policemen co-operate with the S. P. C.

A. in enforcing its lnws. Referred to the police committee. Capt. J.

M. Gudger. on behalf of Mrs. Iiange, whose property is at the intersection of Haywood street and Mont ford avenue, asked that she be relieved of sidewalk paving assessment in view of the fact that she gave six feet 'if lund on Haywood and five feet on Mon'tford for street widening. Referred to the street committee.

Capt. Gudger complimented the Hoard for putting down the sidewalk on The street committee was given the question of changing the curbing oh Government street so as to make the street more convenient of access from liege and Haywood streets. Ruilding permits were granted as follows: S. M. Redmon, frame store building on East street: Thos.

N. Henry, eight-room house in Xeilie Park; J. M. Putton for J. Mc.D.

Whits in. six-room house on West Chestnut street; C. H. Moore, carriage house, 103 Mont-ford avenue. Alderman Scott suggested at a test be made to ascertain whether Run-combe sund cannot be used in the city's filters, and the water committee will make the test.

This sand is now brought here from Norfolk, and the use of home sand, if practicable, would be a great saving. FINANCES. The weekly cash statement submitted by City Clerk Robertson was as follows: Cash hand Oct 13 Collected by J. A. Cambell 370.39 Collected by M.
