A Suggestion to the Street Car Company. Brookslde Park is really a delightful place during spring and summer. It might be made even more so and at the same time profitable to our street car lines. As one of the ways we suggest that the grass be kept closely mowed and the whole park raked clear and smooth, that a few more seats be placed in it, and then special days be designated as social days, say twice each week, and Saturday afternoon from three to seven o'clock be made specially attractive. For three days Brookside Park tickets might be issued for five cents for a round trip.

Occasionally a band of music for the Saturday afternoon would help the matter along. Families will find it to be a good idea occasionally to spend at least a part of the day out there, that all may get a little fresh airing. THEY AllE HERE.

.1 t. A t- ,.5 few fi! -J if Hi The many friends of Rev Dr John Watkins, will be pleased to learn that he is rapidly recovering from his recent sickness. Mrs A Ellis, is visiting friends and relatives at Apex. Mr Betts, who was slightly in jured by an accidental pistol shot a few days since, has so far recovered as to be at the Chronicle office. We learn that Mr James I McRee, who for some time had editorial charge of the News and Observer, in this city, has accepted a position on the staff of the Richmond, Va, Dis patch and left today to assume his new duties.

Mr McRee is a newspaper man of ability, which added to his urbanity in all the transactions of life render him a most valuable acquisition. We wish him unbounded success. Elijah Shaw, of Wales, Mass, is in the city. Mrs Gill and sister, Miss Joe Mercer, of Leeds, England, have arrived in this city from Hot Springs, Ark, where Mrs Gill has been under medical treatment for the last five months. Mrs Gill's many friends will be glad to hear that she is much im proved.

Miss Mercer will remain in the city for some time before return ing to England. Dr Richard Noble and wife of Selma are in the city visiting the family of Hon John Scarborough. Mrs Noble is sister of Mrs Scarborough. Our Boys and Young Men. The parental roof is the place for a boy after nightfall and not on the streets listening to vulgar and inde cent talk, smoking cigarettes, chewing tobacco, etc.

We are unable to understand how it is that the parents of certain boys we see on the streets at night, should allow them such liberty. Our young men need to have pro vision made for them, so they have some plaoe to go to spend their evenings. Many of them are away from home. All day in the office, workshop or store, when night comes they want some recreation. The Young Men's Christian Association in its later organization attempts to meet the wants of the young men at this point, and therefore in every well regulated association you will find the reading room and library.the gymnasium, the social room for various innocent games, the music room, the educational department, etc, etc.

The value of such a place to the good of a community in the proper cultiva-tion and training of its citizens cannot be estimated. That Raleigh naeds this work for her young men, is not saying that ours are more vicious than others, but that we have scores and hundreds of them here. Taey are away from the restraints of home many of them, and without some effort to aid them in following in the right way there is the greatest dangtrthat they may go wrong. We owe it to-the young men, we owe it to ourselves to organize and equip a Young Mn's Christian Asso ciation in the mst approved form. The subject desejves the consideration of our merchants and business men generally as well as parents.

Was it a Swap Two young men of our city went out to Garner last Sunday to attend the union meeting they say. Others think they went to see the girls. They were driving: a very fine horse. On their return to the city they became so frightened at their horse that they stopped and took him out bor rowed a mule not in very fine con dition-to get back to the city. Friends who saw them say they did not look as brightnd cheerful as they Bhould.

Youor gentlemen, have you swapped back that fine horse for the ten dollar mule? We wish you bet Lxp.aKST Citt Circulation. Index to New Advertisements. Bevers Horton Groceiies. Barbee Pope Candy Manufacturers. In and Aroun 1 the City.
